But, it doesn't change the fact that Mr. Cleland didn't "leave his limbs on the battlefield", which is what the demoCREEPs have said over and over and over and over since the 2002 election.
So, it wasn't his gernade? It was still an accident. A tragic accident, but an accident nonetheless.
Mrs. Coulter points out that he wasn't injured in combat. The demoCREEPs use Mr. Cleland and a completely made-up story about leaving limbs on the battlefield for the mere imagery of a hero. In this case, the left is proven AGAIN to make things up out of whole-cloth.
Once again, there is no substance to what they say.
Compare these two...
| DemoCREEP Story | Reported Truth |
| Max Cleland left three limbs on the battlefields of Vietnam | Max Cleland dropped a grenade on himself and lost 3 limbs |
| Max Cleland left three limbs on the battlefields of Vietnam | A fellow soldier dropped a grenade near Cleland and lost 3 limbs |
Take your pick, the demoCREEPs are still liars.
