Default The left supports the troops, Part One Trillion

But its "only" the fringe element right, 'tards? The New Yorker...Dick Cavett...just the fringe...

Quote:
I can’t look at Petraeus — his uniform ornamented like a Christmas tree with honors, medals and ribbons — without thinking of the great Mort Sahl at the peak of his brilliance. He talked about meeting General Westmoreland in the Vietnam days. Mort, in a virtuoso display of his uncanny detailed knowledge — and memory — of such things, recited the lengthy list (”Distinguished Service Medal, Croix de Guerre with Chevron, Bronze Star, Pacific Campaign” and on and on), naming each of the half-acre of decorations, medals, ornaments, campaign ribbons and other fripperies festooning the general’s sternum in gaudy display. Finishing the detailed list, Mort observed, “Very impressive!” Adding, “If you’re twelve.”
Just the "fringe", right?

Read all about it:

Michelle Malkin » Dick Cavett: yet another liberal dazzled by Petraeus’ shiny medals

Libs do more crying than dying for this nation. They have it good, yet they are always miserable ****s.

I cannot for the life of me figure out what these people are so pissed off about. And the board libs do not need to jump in here with a bunch of "Bush lied/Iraq war/soldiers dying for no reason" b.s. It's obvious these loonies couldn't give two shits about any Soldier/Sailor/Airman/Marine's life, and if the Iraq war didn't exist, they'd still be pissed off about something. They're always pissed off about something.

Some psych grad student, somewhere, must have done a thesis on loony left war protesters and come up with some kind of theory on what really motivates them. I'd love to hear it.

Liberals don't like the idea of a military period. They think we should dress up in uniforms and go around collecting for UNICEF.

And the utter contempt and snobbish elitism that they display is sickening. Cavett looks down his nose at those who might actually have the gall to admire a man like Petreus and his service to this Country.

Utterly disgusting. Their true colors show time and time again.

Maybe ambler can post when he's not talking about burning down Bev Hills or Jers when he's not calling 2 white people getting beaten up white trash.

Ah, compassionate liberals at their finest!

There's a lot more to supporting the troops than jingoistic slogans and wearing an American flag on a man's suit collar. The conservatives have repeatedly cut veterans benefits and it was the present administration that sent our people off to a war which shouldn't have happened, and sent them to war without adequate armored vehicles and safety equipment. "Supporting the Troops" is much more than empty words which are forgotten seconds after they are said.

This is not about the war, dummy.

And words DO matter. When you equate our troops with Nazis, when you call them terrorists, when you admonish a man like Petreus and mock how he speaks and his service, those things are HEARD and FELT by our troops, by our citizens and worst, by our enemy.

And the disgusting insinuation that even simple respect for our military is unnecessary and "jingoistic" is ****ing reprehensible.

Wearing a flag pin and showing common respect for a man like Petreus is "jingoistic"????

FUKC YOU.

Your own words proclaim you to be a pompass ass and and idiot requiring no further attention. You're another right wing wacko moron. Respect the troops with deeds and actions. As a war vet myself I've seen phoney patriots for years. Show us respect don't BS us.

I CANT show you respect as a veteran. Becuase if I did, according to YOUR retarded logic, that would be "jingostic."

Youre ****ing logic is great. Becuase the Government isnt providing a certain level of service to the armed forces, the disgusting words of a little man like Dick Cavett are excused.

And here is a little note for you, schmuck. I neither think the war was a good idea, nor carried out correctly, nor do I think the current crop of NeoCons properly represent the Republican Party and its core values.
