One of the co-authors of "Unfit for Command" is a Freeper. He made a post...supposedly as a satire...where he made some remarks he now regrets. References to "ragheads", saying disparaging things about Islam, and an un-funny (by his own admission) Catholic joke were part of it.
The left is now trying to nail him on it.
I'm willing to forgive him.
Isn't this a clear case of selective "nailing"? Christian [or Catholic] bashing is mainstream fair these days. The MSM can bash Christians and Catholics all they want. Eliz Vargas was doing on another ABC special on the validity of the Da Vinci Code again...
I'm willing to forgive him.
If we can't take a joke, then Christians ought to convert to Islam and wear rags on our heads. Islamo-nazis don't forgive and are even now plotting to get even.
I like to be a part of a forum where there are people of the caliber of FReeper "jrlc" [Corsi].
The left is now trying to nail him on it.
That's what he gets for not keeping his handle and his true identity seperated.
What do you mean "forgive him"?
What happened to free speech?
When the left bashes Bush or even the country, they say they have the right to exercise their free speech. Just recently Whoopi Goldberg used obscenities and vulgarities to talk about President Bush on the stage at a Kerry fundraiser, and the Dems said that was OK, because she was just exercising her right to free speech.
So, Corsi was just exercising his right. Nothing Corsi said is even remotely comparable with the thousands of nasty comments the Dems have been making.
I read his remarks and shrugged, to be honest. Sort of "aother day at the office" for me, though I don't personally use the same language. After 9/11, you can't really blame people for people for letting it fly a little bit.
As for calling Hillary names...so? And since when has the media been champions of the Catholic church?
I am probably thinking wishfully here, but I hope people see this as the media intruding on someone's private life. A lot of people visit internet forums as a means of recreation, so I hope people can relate to him on that level.
The posts the media is acting outraged over really don't have anything to do with Kerry's service, do they?
All he has to do is ask if any of his freeper comments disproves one damn word in his book. Thats what I did to one leftie. The conversation turned to the swiftboat vets, he tried to discredit them, and make me shy away from mentioning the swiftboat vets ever again by pointing to Corsi's comments on FR, I pointed out that none of those comments have anything to do with disproving one single word of the swiftboat vets. He moved on to some other topic.
He made serveral posts over a long period of time. this is not an isolated incident or a one time got carried away.
I hope the guy is rightfully punished/fired/drawn & quartered for his insensitive comments made as a Freeper.....Just as soon as the Democrat Party fires/punishes/draws & quarters the good Senator from W. Virginia, Robby Byrd for his membership in the KKK and frequent use of racial expetives,... Oh wait we can't do that, he's got a D behind his name.
