Saturday, July 23, 2005 12:03 a.m. EDT Gitmo Troops Rebuke Ted Kennedy
During his inspection tour of Guantanamo Bay this week, Massachusetts Senator Ted Kennedy got an earful from U.S. troops running the facility, who blasted Kennedy for his anti-war statements and similar comments by other Democrats.
Soldiers from Kennedy's home state gave him "a piece of their mind," Pentagon officials told the Washington Times Bill Gertz and Rowan Scarborough.
One official said that Kennedy "got a stiff reaction from those home-state soldiers. ... The troops down there expressed their disdain for that kind of commentary, especially comparisons to the gulag." Hawaii Democrat Daniel Akaka, who visited Gitmo along with Kennedy, reportedly got a similar reaction.

I'm sure Frank would have loved to have been there. He could have played Army and blow the crap out of everyone.

are you saying that the MSM aren't 100% honest about everything =O shocking! ;)
I've gotten more info off FR than ANY other news source.
Heck, let's face facts. Freepers know what's happening in the world before the MSM can even get their phones turned on. :)

I love Boston, the Bean Town attitude, Red Sox and clam chowder. But I do have my doubts about a state, excuse me - commonwealth, that elects the likes of Teddy, Kerry and Barney year after year.
WTF are you thinking?!!!

The words, "Teddy," "Paddle," and, "Ass," should never be used in the same sentence for the sake of all humanity.

Do they always surround Tubby Ted with traffic cones when he's out in public?
