O'Loofah is again flogging his "Support the Troops" mantra.
Of course, his idea of supporting the troops is to stand idly by and watch them uselessly fed into the meat-grinder of a foreign civil war. I've posted about it before, but here we go again. I have already heard this O'Reillyesque bullshit vis a vis "supporting the troops", and my answer to Billo is to paraphrase the response I have previously given to other chickenhawk drum-pounders. I have seen combat, Billy, as an infantryman in the United States Army, and the only kind of support we were interested in was fire support. So either put down your microphone and pick up a weapon, or shut the fuck up.

2. He meant to say
"Support the troops during the War on Christmas."

3. Worse, he does it on international television
When I flog my support the troops mantra, I at least have the decency to go into my room and shut the door. :eyes:

4. Bravo....my friend...
Thank you for your service...

He is a coward plain and true, he sends his reporters to ambush people he doesn't agree with. He threatens people I am hoping that someone finally decides to file a legal complaint against him and maybe criminal charges for threats.

5. His support of the troops actually hurts them more than helps them.
what does he have to offer to them, seems to me the only that makes out is Bill-o and his using of the troops to support his own umbrage at everything.

6. The fact that he is calling O'Leilly on the carpet is one thing...
he is making O'Leilly proove that he supports the troops. O'leilly picked the wrong guy to go after and threaten. This will be very interesting.

Also, tonight Cuban has a section in the the Spurs basketball Stadium for just soldiars...they are giving away 20, 000 National Guard T-Shirts free to fans at tonights game.

Mark Cubans personal blog about what he is doing at the game. Pictures of the shirts are there also.

7. O'Liely supporting anything is impossible,
considering the gelatinous nature of his core being.

K & R, if any OP should be on the Greatest, it's this one. MKJ

9. Saw an example of this crap while driving by an electronic sign at a local financial/investment
office:

"God Bless the U.S.A"
"Wake Up America!"
"Terrorism is Real!"
"Support Our Troops"

I think most people can probably see right through this garbage for the pathetic chickenhawk right-wing talking points that they are...I hope the guy loses business for this attitude.

Does he even realize the negative impact another terrorist attack would have on his business, even though it seems to be a wet dream of his?
