Interesting reply to make it all about tampons. Your episode of soiling yourself and darting into the girls room must have really left a mark. I imagine the 94% understands what kind of person nods along on camera when their interviewer describes them as an Afghanistan war vet. Do you think those that saw combat care? Those wounded care? Those that lost loved ones? It’s ok that you do not. You have already declared yourself a moral person so no need for you to reexamine. Easier for you to pretend the issue is solely related to paperwork. Weird. Edited August 10 by Biden is Mentally Fit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won’t address if you think those that served in combat and those that suffered are offended by Walz misrepresenting his service - repeatedly. Over a period of years. Two paragraphs. The last two were more of your trademark overwrought whining. Edited August 10 by Biden is Mentally Fit 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have spoken for everyone by declaring that no one cares. For you to respond in this way only highlights your lack of self-awareness. Another of your hallmarks. Sad. I speak for no veterans. Their service and sacrifice does the talking. I suspect people that served in combat care. I know the grieving family of Marine Lance Cpl. Patrick Ryan Adle cares. I suspect people that loved the guy in this picture care. Better for you to be outraged about people caring so that you can continue fluffing a fat f**k 60 yo politician. Weird that you are invested in that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 21 hours ago, B-Man said: The role of the Star Tribune revisited By Scott Johnson Some observers outside Minnesota may reasonably ask, if Governor Tim Walz is so bad (and, as I say, worse than bad), why he has done so well politically. The reasons are many. One reason is the subservience of the Star Tribune to the needs of the Democratic Party. The work of the Star Tribune in Walz’s service provides a current case study. See, for example, Rochelle Olson’s treatment of the current controversy regarding Walz’s departure from the Minnesota National Guard before it was to deploy to Iraq in this classic “Fact check: Walz’s National Guard records show that Vance’s claim of ‘stolen valor’ is false.” Subhead: “GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance claims that the Minnesota governor and Democratic vice presidential candidate bailed as his unit headed to Iraq, but Walz retired before his unit was called up.” The Star Tribune featured Olson’s story on page one yesterday. (Dustin Grage has stepped up to serve as a one-man Walz truth squad.) https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2024/08/the-role-of-the-star-tribune-2.php .

Backintheday544 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 This Swift Boat stuff against Walz is hilarious. Trump just campaigned for a guy who pretended to be shot in Afghanistan. https://www.newsweek.com/tim-sheehys-changing-story-about-getting-shot-1887752 In a campaign video in December, Sheehy cited a gunshot wound he received in combat that he said left a bullet in his right arm as evidence of his toughness. "I got thick skin — though it's not thick enough. I have a bullet stuck in this arm still from Afghanistan," he said. However, according to a record filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Montana, after a family visit to Montana's Glacier National Park, Sheehy told a National Park Service ranger in October 2015, more than a year after he left active duty, that he accidentally shot himself in the right arm that day when his Colt .45 revolver fell and discharged while he was loading his vehicle in the park. If every MAGA on here doesn’t call for him to drop out of the Senate race then we will know they’re just a bunch of hypocrites. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I wasn't in the military. I'm not a golfer. Only very occasionally fish. But even I know that these 3 things inspire more exaggeration and bs among men than any other endeavor. Let's just knock 30% of all such claims as a starting point. Consider me unbothered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like how polling shows almost 80% of reporters self report having a degree. Over 50% for advanced. When less than 25% actually have one. Much of social media is people exaggerating on levels.

I have had the unfortunate experience of working on VA disability claims. Any idea of what percentage of such claims include exaggerated service-related disabilities? Outright fraud? I dealt with one where the vet never deployed. Never left the continental USA, but claimed PTSD. And won. We just dealt with that here in an ordinary sense. JD Vance was characterized (to be fair, not his own words) as having "fought" in a war. I called bs on that. He was deployed to a communications unit. No indication he was every shot at. The argument against me was that "yeah, but he was in an area where he could've been shot at." As I said: whatever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that there's a wave of vets many years after discharge bringing bogus PTSD claims. One example: vet whose hobby was 4-wheeling on bone-jarring Colorado mountain trails, all with a disability rating based on serious back pain. And then he went back in to try to add a PTSD claim.

One day you’ll learn how to have a rational, adult argument with no gaslighting or absurd non sequitors. I’ll look forward to it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were as involved as you say. You would know it's for hearing and due to ***** earplugs. But while we are on this topic. Good friend is a nurse practitioner , they are seeing the same thing. People claiming PTSD, autism, gender diaspora with no actual diagnosis from a psychiatrist. Then they get mad when he refers them to psych or the BSD.
