Withdrawing support of Paul Hackett
I was prepared to support Democratic candidate Paul Hackett, a major and Marine Corps reservist who is running for Congress in Ohio, and was planning a post to that effect this week.
I think in a lot of ways it was refreshing to hear a guy who calls it like it is. I thought he held a lot of promise as a new Democrat, a guy who would help bring my former party back to its roots in, well, America. A guy who could be a critic of Iraq policy, but
But this man, a commissioned officer, who is wrapping himself in the mantle of his Iraq service, referred to the commander-in-chief as "that son-of-a-bitch who lives in the White House."
And that, friends, is conduct unbecoming an officer.
I doubt you saw Dwight Eisenhower stoop to that crap when he was running against Stevenson.
I've criticized policies. But never stooped to insulting the chain-of-command. Indeed, to do so may be a violation of the UCMJ.
I withdraw my support of Paul Hackett.
What is it with Democrats today that causes them to embrace such vile, childish rhetoric?
Is it something in the water?
Splash, out

Why don't you stand for office Jason? As a citizen soldier and a worker in the field of finance, I'd say you have the chops to make sensible decisions in a civic office.
A sane voice from the left would be a welcome relief.

I'm curious to see your opinion about the first blogger to receive punishment following the release of the DA blogging policy letter. Here's his blog sans offending posts:

I posted my comments there, but there appears to be a martyr aura being painted on his case IMO.

I'm a repub, and not intending any snark but, what going on? As soon as folk step one inch into the Dem tent they lose their mind. The Dems gotta get some sane folk in there. Democracy doesn't work too well when the party out of power is insane to an uncomfortably large degree. And I remember the sane days of Scoop Jackson and HHH.

If you read the newspapers at the time of WW2 to get an idea of the actual mood of the country you will find a lot of crazyness in the Republican papers.
The party out of power is always insane.
The fact that there is a war on makes no difference.

Under the UMCMJ, what U.S. service person will step up and file the charge that will bring Major Hackett before Officers who will consider how Hackett describes the former First Lady, Barbara Bush. At the heart of his expression is really an attack on one's mother, that's what makes it so ungentlemanly and so unbecoming of an Officer.
