A Democratic candidate for governor of Maryland is defending comments he made Monday in which he suggested his opponent, an Iraq war veteran, was not up to the task of a “real job.”

Maryland Attorney General Douglas Gansler drew ire from a veterans’ group after he made the comments about his opponent for the Democratic nomination, Maryland Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, at an event held by the Tech Council of Maryland.

Politics is there to provide those with no talent, no achievement, and no morals with a salary.

And Gansler is a prime example.

Shove it up your collective smelly Obamahole, Gansler. I’m ready to let you be totally owned should you like to have a little IQ contest with me...a vet.

I’m waiting, Obamahole.

Im sure it was meant as a complement. Perhaps he thinks the vet has too much honor and integrity to run such a corrupt state. Of course both are still demonrats so.......

Mr. Brown, the one who “never had a real job,” was a military lawyer in the reserves who was deployed to Iraq to do lawyering. Not quite what some of us picture when we think of Iraq war veteran.

That said, Mr. Brown is as much of a tool as Mr. Gansler. Sadly, one of these two misfits will be our next governor.

Perhaps the proper response would be: “Look, we both know you and I are not up to the task of a real job. That’s why we both want to be governor.”

“...Obamahole...”

Kinda says it all, in one neat, tidy little package!

Thank you!

I always believed that Demon Ratz viewed lawyers as clergy but apparently their hatred for the military even trumps their religion.

Anthony Brown is not up for the job. Iraq war vet or otherwise is irrelevant.

(NOTE: this is not an endorsement for “speed racer” Ganssler...it IS an acknowledgement that a broken clock can be right once or twice a day)

Yes, thank you for explaining Brown’s service record. A real Iraq combat vet probably would not have hooked up with that filthy OweMalley. Lord forgive me for how much I despise Little Marty.

Brown seems to be the media’s favorite, so I guess we’ll be getting him. Or maybe that homo woman....
