A Tacoma man who falsely claimed he was a decorated war hero when he took the stage at demonstrations held in opposition to the U.S.'s role in Iraq was sentenced this morning to five months in prison in U.S. District Court in Seattle.

Freepers know this guy.
Couldn’t happen to a bigger douche.
I’m not sure which is funnier...the fact that this lefty loonie got busted or that he duped other lefty loonies into believing him.
Hope the slimey coward rots in jail.
Good news, I’m sure the MSM will be picking this one up right?
I was in Iraq (Ramadi) when this fool started his BS stories, and I was only too happy to be involved even in the tiniest bit with the blog swarm. Hats off to my fellow FReepers, who exposed this little howler monkey for what he is - but WHY, only five months?
Good! This turkey is going to serve the sentence too, it’s a U.S. District Court.
From the title, I thought this was going to be about John Kerry.
They ought to string him up by his testicles - if he has any, which I doubt.
LOL!;)
What a verminious worm.
It seems like I read a story that said that Dan Rather was in the Marines for 44 days also.
It must be a magic number.
War hero for the Dems.
Good! Thanks for posting this. I hope more fraudulent Iraq War protesters get busted. A lot of the Vietnam War protesters were frauds and should have been busted.
A better punishment would be to make him finish boot camp...and let his fellow recruits know why he’s there.
Was this guy in DC last weekend?
Nope - bad idea - I wouldn’t want this waste of DNA anywhere near my troops.
Nice sentence structure.
PepperSpray Productions’ Retraction Statement for our Video “Jesse Macbeth: An Iraq Veteran Speaks Out”
PepperSpray Productions recently created a video entitled “Jesse Macbeth: An Iraq Veteran Speaks Out.” Jesse Macbeth misrepresented to PepperSpray Productions and others his military service and was never deployed in Iraq. When we learned that Macbeth’s service records were fraudulent, we immediately pulled the video and are no longer distributing it. We remain committed to creating high quality independent media and deeply regret that the Macbeth video distracted attention from the military investigation of a Marines massacre of 24 civilians in Haditha and accounts from actual Iraq Veterans.

yeh yeh yeh......from their “home page”:
Pepperspray formed shortly after the WTO protests in Seattle, in response to the Independent Media Center’s call ‘don’t hate the media, be the media’. We believe that the Corporate Media is not telling us the whole story, and that the people must make our own media if we want our voices to be heard.
As a collective we cover Seattle-area demonstrations for social and environmental justice as well as progressive/radical political conferences and events. Pepperspray members can also be seen at National and International protest actions. If you want us to cover your event (in the Seattle area) contact us and we’ll see what we can do to help.
We are an anti-profit organization, and all Pepperspray collective members are volunteers. All our videos are ‘copyleft’ meaning that as long as they are being used to further social change and not to make a profit, anyone may use them as they see fit.
Don’t hate the media, Be the media!

But they sell videos for a profit:
