Heh, guess he’ll have to practice being ‘the next Hemingway’ after he gets out.

Remember the old Chuck Connors show “Branded”? That’s what should be done with this a$$. He deserves to live the rest of his life in shame.

“morally and emotionally distorting effects of war”

Not to mention the morally and emotionally distorting effects of bold faced lies - the left seems to be genetically incapable of either telling the truth or recognizing the tsunamis of distortions and fabrications that come from their camp.

The New Republic got sloppy. They forgot that the web gives the people the ability to check out the facts themselves. If only we could get the media housebroken on the first try, or second, or third, their circulation might stop the downward slide.

Just like that Stephen Glass guy, this guy will write a book, go on an apology tour, and get his story made into a movie, making millions in the process.

He could also go the route of a previous TNR fraud, Steven Glass: get a law degree, then have a movie made about his story.

His fellow soldiers no longer feel comfortable communicating with reporters.

LOL! Ya reckon?

That comment was meant to imply that the military is quashing such communication. The other edge of that sword is that the soldiers feel that reporters can't be trusted, especially those with a TNR press badge.

This creep intended to do this for his entire enlistment and admitted it in print. He deserves a BCD but probably won't get one. He is, however, likely to be quietly transfered out of theater lest someone he slandered (and that was just about everyone in uniform) decide to insert a size 14 combat boot intrarectally. That would only validate TNR's lies.

The New Republic and The Nation were both engaged in reliving the 60's by calling our troops "baby killers" again.

The Nation magazine's attempt at recreating the "Winter Soldier" smear against our Vietnam veterans is their box called "Collateral Damage".

The New Republic like 99% of the liberal media hates America and President Bush too much to admit that they wanted to publish lies just to harm the USA, the President, and the military in time of war. Of course, they failed miserably.

Wonder how his girlfriend’s employment future is looking at New Republic.

Stupid liberals, premature ejaculations can be cured. Don’t trust another liberal as a source. Have some other corroborating evidence other than lies out of the mouth of a single liberal.
