"Phony war hero" in jail on Memorial Day

COLLIER COUNTY: The Naples man who many local veterans refer to as a phony war hero is spending his Memorial Day behind bars. Last month, a judge ordered the 72-year-old to work in the Collier County Jail after being charged with fraud.

Most local veterans spent Memorial Day attending ceremonies throughout Southwest Florida - remembering and honoring those who have given their lives for our country and our freedom.

But Raymond Gauthier is spending his Memorial Day in jail.

Gauthier was arrested last December for fraud and charged with forging military documents to get a Prisoner of War license plate.

They sit around and trash people like Max Cleland and John Kerry while worshiping Commander AWOL and Chicken Dickie.

refers to these kind of jerks as "John Kerry and Murtha's" kooky kids.

I don't know why those two honorably-discharged veterans get scorn heaped on them, but there you have it.
