Writer Stephen King smears the troops

Noel Sheppard of Newsbusters reports : Writer Stephen King: If You Can't Read, You'll End Up in the Army or Iraq

Remember shortly before Election Day 2006 when Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) suggested that if you don't get a good education, "you get stuck in Iraq" (video available here)?

Well, last month, famed horror author Stephen King was speaking in front of a group of high school students at the Library of Congress, and he virtually made the exact same statement.

Yeah... we remember
The fact is that the average serviceman, and service woman, is above average.
While the average LibRule (D)emocrat hates free speech...

Horror Author Tells Fans to Email NB, Shuts Down Discussion of Anti-military Remarks

The saga of horror novelist Stephen King's disgraceful comments about America's military took an interesting turn Monday when shortly after instructing visitors to his website to send me a message stating "Hi, Noel—Stephen King says to shut up and I agree," his own message boards were shut down.

If you buy Stephen King's paper-backs used, he doesn't get any money... just sayin'

They support the troops by attacking their families

VIDEO-- Edinboro Peace Thugs Boot & Pummel Military Wife!!

The video shows that every physical action was initiated by the peace thugs.
Every action that escalated the conflict was started by the peace thugs.
They were out of control and unrestrained in their actions.
Every physical action taken by the veteran and his family was in self defense or in seeking to stop the violence.

Carrie Swartout suffered a concussion from the kick to the head.

So... why weren't they arrested and charged?

Catching my breath

It's been a hectic two weeks. But I'm one week away from graduation, and I'll be out of here soon. Thanks to DANE for keeping the place alive. Dane, I owe you a beer or two (dozen) if we ever meet up. You'll know when I've returned home, because I'll be posting on a regular basis again.

In the meantime, here's my quote of the day:

"We in Denmark cannot figure out why you are even bothering to hold an election.

On one side, you have a bitch who is a lawyer, married to a lawyer, and a lawyer who is married to a bitch who is a lawyer.

On the other side, you have a true war hero married to a woman with a huge chest who owns a beer distributorship.

Is there a contest here?"

Damn good question, innit? Quote found at RNS.
