Pinging Tonk to be etiquettely correct.

No you didn't.

Tonk's conduct is shameful?!

You wrote in another post, "Of course, I can see Kelly's point, because Murtha's claim to fame is being a "war hero," and his whole Iraq shtick is based on the idea that he knows what he's talking about because he was the man in 'Nam."

You call Tonk shameless and stated Murtha's talk is shtick, yet you advocate silence until all the facts are in, knowing full well it's taken 30 years to reach NO 180 with Kerry. Of anyone on FR, Tonk has been the one to hold the Kerry banner high BECAUSE OF THE SILENCE 30 years ago, the damage it did to our troops, and the massacre in the Cambodian fields, and YOU call HIM shameless, unable to see the forest for the trees, state "there must be a 12 step group for that", tell HIM to get a grip, because HE disagrees with YOU?

When the potential about what can evolve in damage to our troops and the war effort if this behavior is silently and quietly ignored has been made abundantly clear by history and Tonk calls you on your choice to sit on both sides of the fence, insults are posted.

I guess I missed your definition of shameless.

*SIGH*

You didn't read the whole conversation between me and Tonk, did you?

Or do you really think it's appropriate for him to portray me and other people on this board as traitors to the Republic when we disagree with him on a tactical course?

I've put in the hours on cold flightlines and hot streetcorners. I sure deserve better than that.
