Never Forget; Never Forgive

Rush Limbaugh and the Phony Soldier Part 2

 

Here’s a follow-up to yesterday’s post on Harry Reid’s revolting conduct.  First, check out Michelle Malkin’s excellent summary of the Dems' act of self-destruction.  Here’s a short outtake:

 

“That letter read in part: “Our troops are righting and dying to bring to others the freedoms that many take for granted. It is unconscionable that Mr. Limbaugh would criticize them for exercising the fundamentally American right to free speech…

 

“We call on you to publicly repudiate these comments … and ask Mr. Limbaugh to apologize for his comments.”

 

The fact is, Limbaugh pointed out on the air that the “phony soldiers” he referred to were just that – Americans who falsely claim they have been in the Armed Forces and in some cases say they have been to Iraq.

 

He was specifically referring to Jesse Macbeth, who appeared in a widely seen YouTube video in which he claimed he had been a corporal serving in Iraq and Afghanistan and was awarded a Purple Heart. He also described how he and other U.S. soldiers had killed innocent civilians there.”

And then, Tom “Look Who’s Talking” Harkin.  Nailed by the Gateway Pundit:

 

Senator Harkin lashed out at Rush Limbaugh today on the floor of the Senate:

Well, I don’t know. Maybe he was just high on his drugs again. I don’t know whether he was or not. If so, he ought to let us know. But that shouldn’t be an excuse.

 

Nice. But, considering Harkin's phony soldier duty claims it only makes sense that he would be angry at Rush:

 

In Mr. Harkin's case, the questions that have lingered longest concern his Navy record. Mr. Harkin did serve in the Navy during the Vietnam era, but exactly what he did, and for how long, remain a matter of some dispute.

Oh, and don’t forget John “I served in Vietnam” Kerry.  What did he say about our troops a few years ago on CBS’s Sunday morning talk show, “Face the Nation?”

 

"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the-of-the historical customs, religious customs."

Here is the transcript for "Face the Nation"-

And then there’s John Murtha.  He tried, convicted and executed Marines without benefit of trial.  And now, it turns out that the Marines didn’t do what he and the MSM accused them of doing.  Check out Chris Matthews’ “softball questions” of Murtha:

 

CHRIS MATTHEWS, HOST: Let me ask you Mr. Murtha to give us some details about that. Draw us a picture of what happened at Haditha.

 

REP. JOHN “JACK” MURTHA: Well, I’ll tell you exactly what happened. One Marine was killed and the Marines just said we’re going to take care – we don’t know who the enemy is, the pressure was too much on them, so they went into houses and they actually killed civilians. And, and –

 

MATTHEWS:—was this My Lai? Was this a case of – when you say cold blood Congressman, a lot of people think you’re basically saying you got some civilians sitting in a room around a field and they’re executed.

 

MURTHA: That’s exactly it.

Oh, and don’t forget the General “Betray Us” NYT ad aimed at General Petraeus.

 

What is the lesson we should learn about these Dem slander of Rush Limbaugh and our troops?  It is simply this: It’s time we take back America by systematically voting these 21st century Benedict Arnolds OUT OF OFFICE!!!  How do we do that?  ORGANIZE.  Pick a good, solid conservative politician in your district or state, and SUPPORT him or her THIS YEAR in preparation for the primaries and the general election NEXT YEAR.


[Are you listening  to me, citizens of Nevada?  You know what Harry Reid is now.  Next time he's up for re-election, you will have no excuse if you vote for him.]

 

And then REPEAT this procedure election after election until we have an unbeatable, veto-proof, solid majority of pro-American Republicans in Congress.

 

No, we can no longer get along.  No, we have no more common ground.  The Dems are Evil Leftists, traitors, and our enemies.

 

We will not forgive.  We will not forget.
