Post of the Day, from Greyhawk

| May 19, 2009

Go read it all.

It’s become far too easy to make accusations like these [of Seymour Hersh and the Dick Cheney Death Squads], far too easy to casually slander members of the armed forces and far too easy for those doing so to back-pedal, or claim they’re blaming the leaders of these troops – that these murderous thugs are as much victims of those leaders as are the corpses they’ve left in their wake.

It’s far too easy to merely shake your head in disgust at the entire state of affairs, shrug and wander away. It’s harder to fight back – it always is. The miscalculation made by those who’d continue their attacks time after time after time was to assume veterans wouldn’t notice they were being branded, or that they would welcome that “victim” status, or simply choose the easy shrug and walk away.

They guessed wrong.

Hersch and Soltz propagating rumors sounds like the character from “In Living Color” Miss Cleo(?I think)?)….
