Gen Tony McPeak smacks down BushCo

*

"I resent them saying that about a man who served his country first in
combat in Vietnam, and then served it again in the antiwar movement," he
said. "Like John Kerry, I was serving my country while they were hiding
from it, seeking deferments. If you take baloney and wrap it in a flag,
you've still got baloney but now you've insulted the flag," McPeak said.
"That's not patriotism. Are these men going to question my patriotism?"

3. Rock on General McPeak
I served 24 years, one tour in combat. Come On chicken shit, chickenhawk conservatives - QUESTION MY PATRIOTISM YOU PENCIL DICK AMERICAN HATING BASTARDS. You want a man who is resolute, fine, question my patriotism, I'll resolutely KICK YOUR ASS BACK TO YOUR RACIST KLAVERN. You fucking worthless vermin don't know how lucky you have it.

4. Wow...
...and remember, this is coming from someone who CAMPAIGNED for Bush in 2000. Again and again we see that Bush can indeed change minds and patterns of life-long behavior. Oh yeah, he's a uniter.
