Okay…
First piece here and I just opened my email. After responding to the “sorry I didn’t come to class emails,” I found one from General Clark.
And boy…he’s not too happy with Rush…
Rush Limbaugh has never worn the uniform in his life, yet he’s got the moral standing to pass judgment on the men and women who risked their lives for this nation?
Polls have shown that the majority of troops on the ground in Iraq, and those who have returned, do not back the President’s failed policy.
Does Rush believe, then, that the majority of the US Armed Forces are “phony?”
Major Generals John Batiste and Paul Eaton left the military and have spoken out against the Bush Administration’s failed policies. These are former commanders in Iraq, and they have challenged the Administration for its stubborn refusal to listen to those commanders on the ground who have sent up warning after warning.
Does Rush believe that highly decorated Major Generals are “phony soldiers?”
Finally, recall the members of the 82nd Airborne in Iraq who wrote a New York Times op-ed, urging for a change in course in Iraq, and suggesting it was time to figure out the exit strategy. Two of them just died.
Does Rush believe these young troops are “phony soldiers?”
My challenge to you is to force Rush to invite Jon Soltz onto his show and say all of this again, right to the face of someone who served in Iraq.
This isn’t the first time that Rush’s stuck his foot into the mix by blasting one of the many troops who’ve served in either Iraq or Afghanistan.
I remember listening to the blowhard on the way home from the OH-2 Special Elections when he referred to Paul Hackett as a “desk jockey.”
Since I wasn’t in cell range of anything, I pulled off at the next exit and made a payphone call to Hackett campaign headquarters to let them know that Paul was being disparaged by none other…
General Clark’s request?
Take action now. Email Rush Limbaugh and urge him to invite Jon Soltz onto his radio show!
Clark asks
The question is, would Rush make these outrageous and offensive comments to Jon’s face?
Me? I’m thinking not…

annoy the hell out of Rush by pointing out that the guys he’s been disparaging are the “Real McCoy.”
*swoon*
the link you posted has your info (name, address)on it, if you don’t want it public, you should erase it then repost the link blank…
…just sayin’!
Otherwise, thanks for the essay, rec’d!
is my dream candidate. Oh how I wish he would run.
Nor are these veterans:
That’s all I have to say just,
Rush Limbaugh.
and more repulsive than an overflowing outhouse on a 95 degree day.
