(39,961 posts)but I handle it. I love DU and most of the people on it. When I make a comment that is an asshole comment, I pretty much own up to it. Thanks for putting up with me. I'm in the midst of a fight with my insurance company over the fact that it cost $18,000. Nothing about the entire situation is pleasant, but I get the joke.
I'm the least of one that claims perfection. So I guess I will just assume that you tease me about it because you love me. Pinboy3Niner told me he did, too. Jasmeinteine said so too. I'll take them and you at your word.

Fuck....having nearly lost an eye last year, I get it.
Aerows
(39,961 posts)I'm far from broke, but it seems they want to drain me of my last dollar.
How did you nearly lose an eye? My God that sounds horrible!
msanthrope
(37,549 posts)divorce, and lack of health insurance, I paid cash to have my right eye fixed. Thank Jeebus for aftercare under Obama...my left eye was saved, too.
I owe my sight to that man.
I think mine will get covered because I have been raising such a stink with the insurance company AND the hospital (which is where all of this really ends). My Episcopalian Church offered to pay for it under it's charity, but I can't allow them to do that if I have enough to do it myself.

That was an asshole comment I made, and I regret it.

(26,877 posts)I was that kind of kid (8 years old) - also stuffed envelopes for the McGovern Campaign - but when my neighbors came home from Vietnam, I looked upon them as heroes. They did what my Dad did (in WW2) and, despite politics, they did their duty. I saw several who were effed up by it. I went out of my way to let them know that I felt about them as I did my Dad. Just throwing that out there...

(4,713 posts)His entire Twitter is garbage.
Shankapotomus
(4,840 posts)Just went to his twitter feed. Shocking. Here is his latest, as of this post:
"Taliban IEDs were far more effective at killing American soldiers after Bowe Bergdahl defected. He taught them how to better kill Americans."
Aerows

What kind of people are these?

(115,693 posts)Twitter has done the world the service (?) of allowing us all to view the uncensored ids of a lot of really terrible people.

(115,693 posts)I hope for his sake somebody hacked his Twitter account. Otherwise he's got to be the biggest turd in the cesspool called the Republican Party.

jmowreader
(50,557 posts)If this isn't the real Todd Kincannon, there are two exactly identical people in the world. I have great confidence it's him.
I don't know if Mr. Kincannon is the biggest turd in the GOP's punchbowl - the list of contenders is exceptionally long - but he's right up there. Kincannon's the kinda guy who the cops would list as "death by natural causes" if someone took him out back and beat his empty head in with a golf club.
Aerows
(39,961 posts)Good grief. The man was in Taliban hands for 5 years.
Disgusting.

He has to be circling the drain with a 9mm to his own head.
The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,693 posts)that this fuckwidget actually held a position in the S. Carolina Republican Party, which doesn't seem to have tried to distance itself from him (which should tell us something). His Twitter account looks like something from the diseased brain of one of the loonier RW "pundit" - ranters like Ann Coulter or Eric Erickson.

(3,675 posts)why these right wing assholes are calling this guy a traitor.
The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,693 posts)there were some rumors floating around that he had deserted, because it wasn't clear how the Taliban guys were able to get him away from his post. One of the more odious FAUX talking heads brought this up. Of course, it's never been proved, and if there's some evidence of that of course Bergdahl is entitled to a trial under the UCMJ. Even in a court-martial trial there's a presumption of innocence. And if you ask me, even if it's true he's more than paid for it.

For verified accounts so far I've got:

@CNNRick
@Scottrade
@DLoesch (conservative radio host, Dana Loesch.
@yesnicksearcy (actor)
@charlescwcooke (writer for national review)
Here's a weird one, @GinBlossoms! It's also a verified account. Why would The Gin Blossoms follow this piece of filth?
Something odd is going on.
jmowreader
(50,557 posts)It's a brokerage house and Kincannon's money is at least as green as anyone else's. Problem is, Todd doesn't keep it in a sealed container so when they scrape the mold off most of it says "Confederate States of America."
Shankapotomus
(4,840 posts)I suspect he obtained his 32k followers by questionable means.
The thing is Scottrade is following him.
leanforward
(1,076 posts)Now this scumbag needs to be voted out. Where do I donate? Won't be much. Why would this fool comment (attack) the family regarding his release. Everybody reacts differently in combat situations. This guy need to STFU. His comments put him in the Jane Fonda class. I hope no one is offended by my remarks. The Soldier needs to come home.
