I'm reading on other forums that this isn't really a big deal according to posters. J.D. just took the first shot at Walz over this.

Senator Vance, Veteran he, has the standing and the background to opine on this topic.

Stolen valor is something that bugs most folks, especially us Vets, and if it's a fact, you're seeing a major campaign issue

I doubt that. Stolen valor, to a democrat, is a resume enhancer..

Besides, who’s gonna cover it? CNN? MSNBC?

It is a big deal, though claiming a rank may not come under the Stolen Valor Act of 2013. It is still wrong, sloppy or intention. Here is an informative discussion many of us had last night on the topic, Here is a discussion many of us had last night, https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/4256807/posts

Kamalamadingdong’s white dude is a snowflake. A real fraud. Weird how his wife loves the smell of burning rubber. Some real creepy crap.

It IS a big deal.

Misrepresenting one’s military record for personal gain, such as political office, is not only low brow, it is the theft of the public trust.

It’s also a disgusting slap in the face to all who served in the military, and to their families, particularly for those who sacrificed everything.

While it’s possible for misunderstandings, I find that there are very few honest mistakes in politics. Especially democrats.

Are you seeing a major campaign issue?? Da’Nang Dick Blumenthal outwardly lied about serving in Vietnam and keeps moving forward.

I hope you are correct and i also hope the Republicans keep pounding this but i don’t know its going to be a Swift Boat issue. Also- Vance seems to imply tampon tim claimed to have carried a weapon into battle- is that true???

“..Weird how his wife loves the smell of burning rubber...”

Yep.
But, I kinda like it too...when it’s mixed with nitromethane fumes from a 10,000hp Top Fuel dragster....LOL

Just because he spent 20 years in the NG doesn’t make you any hero. Most likely the reason he did is for the perks and extra paycheck or even summer camp as many guys did it to get away from the wife for a couple weeks but when it came to deployment, he drew the line and tucked tail and ran.

Some background.

Article by angry veterans who were abandoned by Waltz in his National Guard unit. He lies about details of his service.

It isn’t stolen valor to me (68-76) but it does show a lack of integrity, a diminution of what honorable service he did accomplish while serving and an utter stupidity in this age of the internet. All he had to do was to complete the coursework but he opted for the easily checked lie counting on others’ gullibility.

I watched it.

Vance gutted him in Detroit today on his 2nd Amendment position.

“Tell me, what war was it that you carried that gun in?”

Coming from a guy that did carry a rifle in war, that hit home.

I do know some Dems who are irked by valor stolen by politicians, panhandlers, and etc.

To make your point, however, consider Mister Richard Blumenthal who falsely claimed, apparently several times, that he served in Vietnam.

Rather than apologize for the deceit, he dismissed dismissed the theft of valor as misspeaking and not being sufficiently clear or precise.

And, the not-very-choosey Connecticut Dems made him a senator.
