Saving Private Beauchamp (Warning: Andrew Sullivan)

Read TNR's accounting. It is as I predicted: honorable and, except for one small inaccuracy, it checks out. All the aspects aggressively challenged by the usual propaganda organs have been verified and corroborated. The military is now conducting its own investigation. Given the record of such formal investigations, I'm not as confident in the Pentagon as I am in TNR. Can we now expect apologies from the people who smeared and maligned the magazine and its soldier-reporter? I doubt it. The attackers are not the kind to acknowledge their own errors.

Sullivan is a foreigner. He doesn’t have an ear for fiction pandering to white urban liberal class and regional prejudices about the military and its men.

Saw the same thing in British papers when John Kerry made his “stuck in Iraq” remarks. They were dumbfounded, but we knew he really meant it.

I wish some of the guys in Iraq would do a ‘Halp Us Jon Carry’ type sign that said

I’M IN YR BRADLEY AND I’M KILLIN YR DOGZ

And then take a pic of a Bradley with a lot of toy plush dogs stuffed in the tracks.

What a laugh. Just a little too late besides Weekly Standard has run a story that talks about the lies this guy spewed and how he has signed an affidavit recanting his bs. He wasn’t even in Iraq during one of his stories

Not me. This clown is a zero who believes for good reason that the MSM has amnesia when it comes to poor reporting and the supposed accounting of news.

And what does Sullivan and his “kind” know about America?

Nothing! He should be honest and declare himself a leftist and SHUT THE F*** UP! But he won’t because he’s not a true conservative. He’s more liberal and liberals are by nature a dishonest bunch.

Sullivan still hasn’t kicked his amyl nitrate habit.
