The bravest man I ever met is a "phony soldier" according to Rush.
This man flew S&R missions as well as dust-offs. His job was to come to a hover in a hot LZ and pick up wounded grunts, or to head up to look for some zoomie who parked his sled somewhere north of the DMZ. He wears the Silver Star, three Bronze Stars with "V" for valor, a Purple Heart, and a boatload of "I wuz there" medals. He is a genuine American hero, but he disagrees with every aspect of the war in Iraq, and feels the troops should be brought home ASAP. Just another "phony soldier", eh Rush?

1. I think Rush should be dropped from a plane into Iraq
WITH a parachute of course. Otherwise, the crater would be larger than any MOAB could ever make. :D

Arm him with lots of little American flags and one of his "Gitmo" t-shirts.

2. I know a paratrooper that jumped
with the 82nd in WWII that thinks this is a prime example of SNAFU, I would like to see that fat fuck, Limbaugh, who avoided any military service, say that to that troopers face. I have no doubt that he'd find himself sitting in his own shit wondering how an old man could hit that hard.

3. As was my dear, departed stepfather who served...
during the Korean War, but was vehemently opposed to the Iraq invasion.
