in Politics; WHO Hates the Troops?

You know that S-CHIP expansion bill that President Two-Trillion-Dollar-War-of-Choice vetoed to prove his fiscal conservative (laugh) bona fides? Turns out, it also contains two provisions to help families of wounded veterans. Those provisions would provide one year of protection from employment discrimination for families caring for severely wounded soldiers, and would extend FMLA protections for such families to six months (as opposed to current universal three month protection under FMLA).

Whoops.

Michelle, why do you hate the troops?


Here’s some more soldiers for Rush to disparage

in Dissent = Treason; WHO Hates the Troops?

Pillz-E’s not gonna like this. 12 former Army captains who served in Iraq have written an op-ed in the Washington Post calling for withdrawl from Iraq at best possible speed.

Go ahead, Pillz-E. Call them “phony soldiers.” Call them “staff pukes.” Claim they went to Iraq “to pad their resumes.” I dare you.

Seesh.


Snappy Answers to Stupid Questions*

in Religious Thuggery; GOP Bizarro World

Dennis Prager wants to “ass” us a question:

Ann Coulter Wants Jews to Become Christian - So What?

What’s the problem? Ohhhhhhhh only that pissing contests about which religion is “perfect” or “true” have led to the bloodiest, most brutal wars and abuses of human rights on the face of the planet. But other than that, it’s great fun! Why do you ask?

Republican Rage Boy?

Meet Congressman Joe Knollenberg’s Chief of Staff, Trent Wisecup. Notice how he tries to shove campaign fliers in front of the camera lens before getting in the face of the cameraman, Bruce Fealk. He seems to have no use for democracy and dissent:


Let’s see, questioning the infallibility of The Most Holy George W. Christ makes you un-patriotic, a non-citizen (all the better to send you to Gitmo) who is blinded by hatred of America BLAH BLAH BLAH YADDA YADDA YADDA DIE DIE DIE KILL KILL KILL and … wants Toyota to beat GM? That’s a bit out of left right field there, don’cha think, Trenty? Geeze. The right’s got nothing left to throw at us but stale talking points and bizarre wackaroonery.

Wow. Just…wow. I am in awe. No wonder they feel the need to stalk 12-year-olds.

Thankfully, we can count on The Young Turks to inject some sanity into Wisecrap’s insane rant:
