What the hell is this right-wing GOBBLEDYGOOK ABOUT Gibbons?

subtitle: How fast can you pedal BACKWARDS?

Excerpt:

"ELKO - The controversy over Rep. Jim Gibbons' speech at Elko's Lincoln Day dinner was splashed onto the screens of television viewers across the nation Thursday night.

Nevada Democratic Party spokesman Jon Summers appeared on FOX News' (sic) Hannity & Colmes show to discuss the congressman's remarks.

<snip>

Elko County Commissioner John Ellison, who attended the Lincoln Day dinner, said Summers twisted Gibbons' comments.

"He did not make those accusations ...," Ellison said. "Gibbons' comments were not directed at Americans who privately have concerns regarding the war, but at outspoken liberal celebrities trying to undermine the troops fighting for this nation."

2. So, if you are against the war you should keep it private, but
if you speak out you should be used as body armor? :wtf:
