I Want A Cookie NOW, Mom!
The foot-stamping defenders of appropriate speech are at it again, demanding that the leftlibdemocomfascists do what the children want, when they want it done. It's always fun to point out that what they are demanding is the same as always, that the lldcfs (read 'Democrats') aren't sacrificing one of our own to appease the god of rightful thinking (which would be the whiny little children's view of themselves.) Here's a tip, kids: if you want Murtha sacrificed to sate your outrage and hate ... do it yourselves, if you have the balls.
To put some context to this, I have an introduction to make. Steve, meet Clif. Clif, this is Steve.
Now Steve was all bemoanin' that us Democrats aren't hating Murtha to Steve's required level of desire, thinking that we're letting him hide behind his military service . But then, we know that Steve ain't the sharpest of the knives in drawer. That's why he focuses on something Murtha said that appears to be the actual fact of the case, and has his temper tantrum about that. He missed completely the story that CREW (you know, that left wing organization that so viciously slandered Conrad Burns) has placed Murtha on their Most Corrupt Congress-person's list. I guess CREW didn't get the memo from MoveOn.org, did they Steve?
Of course Steve didn't notice it. That would have meant he would be honor bound to acknowledge the 18 Republican congressmen on that list of 22. Or perhaps, Steve would have had to acknowledge that the overwhelming majority of people who grant mythological power to military service are Republicants, such as himself. Murtha isn't immune to attack from the left because of his military service. He's only immune to cheap shots from lying chicken-hawks because of his military service. And Steve, that's a problem for your side ... not mine. Whine all you want for the cookie. The only kids who will whine with you are those who want one to. It shouldn't be at all surprising that we adults just don't want to give you one anymore.
Oh, are they starting with that "Where is the outrage?" crap again, Wulfgar?
Same old shit, they want to know why the left is so silent about some issue (that they probably don't care about), meanwhile one of their own has fallen and the Right just pretends it never happened.
Hopefully the left will learn soon enough that they'll never win by letting the right constantly take the lead in the dance and play by their rules.

What was the cheap shot, Wulfgar?

Wulfie, you are nothing if not consistent. In your case that is not a good thing.
Since you still don't get it, I leave you to your musings.

Heh, if only Steve, if only. You know, the thing about leaving someone to their musings... You have to leave them to their musings, and as we all know, expensive free lawyer man, you just can't! You have to check in on Wulfgar, over and over and over again! Ahhh, you are so much fun!I wonder how long before you'll come back after leaving Wulfgar to his musings*grins*. Either way, we get to have fun! If you go away, we don't have to read you anymore, and if you come back, we get to make fun of the silly things you say expensive free lawyer!

Gee Guy, you did watch the video in question, right? How on Earth can some wingnut asking the question "Do you enjoy besmirching our troops?" be anything other than a cheap shot? Kindly remember that Jack Murtha, regardless of his profiteering and pork-barreling faults, is still a decorated hero of 2 wars.
Ya' know, Steve, if you continue to caterwal about how I "don't get it" when you remain too frightened to clarify what "it" is, people are going to start to think you're just full of it. Tanaria obviously already thinks so. But you needn't worry about me. I already know you're full of it, and I keep showing it right here.

I guess I don't see it as a cheap shot, because it what Murtha has said is at least arguably "besmirching."
