3. Michael Ware knows what he talks about - has the other guy ever served with troops in the ME?

4. Hey he was under attack at the Pentagon and
he has traveled to the green zone in Iraq several times, ok? :)

Alright, not to make light of those, I'm sure being in the Pentagon was pretty scary on 9/11 and the green zone isn't completely safe, but his trying to make it the equivalent of what Michael Ware has seen and done with the troops is just ridiculous.

9. If he was at the Pentagon that day he probably knew "instinctively"
What part of the building not to be in that day. If ya feel me.


He was probably busy writing the post 9/11 speech. No doubt the first draft being written around the 8th or 9th.

5. I know this is shallow, but why do repugs always look like pigs?
Actual pigs are cute...I hate to disparage them in this way. BushCo pigs are repugnant, but they DO look like pigs in an unattractive way!!!

12. the Troops don't like the Bush Speechwriter
they think he is a condescending prick.

send both the speechwriter and Michael Ware into a place that is full of American Soldiers. which one of those 2 guys do you think most if not all of the soldiers would think understands and supports them more ?

which one would they think is a phony with bs "you are the greatest heroes" lines ?

the Bush speechwriter had one of those typical small mouths of wingnuts.

15. Obama should pat the soldiers heads and tell them they are number 1
that's what the dumbass Bush Speechwriter does with his "they aren't boys and girls, they are heroes" . what the fuck ? stupid dumbass.

Michael Ware is right, you think soldiers give a shit about what Obama is saying to a speech in Cairo while they are out in some war zone ?

18. The smirking, porcine Neo-Con Pussball, Thiessen,
Edited on Sat Jun-06-09 10:06 AM by capnpissgums
is one of the main architects and apologists for The Bush Crime Gang's Torture and War Crimes Regime.

Why are his panties in such a twist? Why is he so eager to talk over Michael Ware? It's simple. Deep down, he's desperate and fearful in the same way Cheney is desperate and fearful. That's why he's so shrill. That's why he's so overbearing.

It's because he knows that America just might recover its moral bearings and begin to revere the rule of law and truth again. Then he won't be able to sell the petty slogans, the threadbare platitudes, the one dimensional faux-patriotism while hiding behind "the troops" and our flag anymore.

He will be looking at a Maximum Security Penitentiary Cell which is where he belongs right now.
