There's a looong way to go Beauchump...

Matt is just catching up with the Free Republic...

Obviously he was tortured to get him to say this. /moonbat

When the government figures out how to punish this traitor, the Senate should do the same to punish John Fibbing Kerry who also made such exageration in a time of war (Vietnam). He has since said that he doesn’t stand by the talk of war crimes and calls them the words of an angry young (lying) man.

Another case of a soldier with a phony story....

[listenhillary]

I guess what’s new are the New Republic’s internal documents?

[Cicero]

Probably he wanted to be the “Across the River and Into the Trees” version of Hemingway.

Even at his best, Hemingway is pretty appalling. If that’s his chosen model and standard of excellence, I’m not surprised how it turned out.

[KC Burke]

Future Democrat Hemingway Senator alert.

There, fixed it.

So, to recap the story so far:

Another ‘phony soldier’ brings up another slander against our military in Iraq.

Yet instead of going after this egregious example of journalistic slander, the Congressional Democrats went after Rush Limbaugh for his “phony soldiers” remark. A remark that is right on-target for this case and the case of Jesse MacBeth, another anti-war lying phony soldier.

Rush turned an assault by Senate Democrats on his First Amendment free speech rights into a PR coup by taking the offensive letter the Senators wrote, auctioning on EBay for a multi-million dollar sum, and donating the entire proceeds to a good cause - scholarships for the children of fallen Marines.

Meanwhile, the tide is turning and we are winning the war the Democrats said was unwinnable, and going good in a country that we were told we were only capable of doing evil.

The World Is Upside Down.

Drudge didn’t mention that Beauchamp’s new wife happened to work for TNR and was assigned as the fact checker for his story.

[dynachrome]

Thought you might be intersted in further info on this “phony soldier”
Scumbag beauchamp.

[theFIRMbss]

>Beauchamp declines to stand by his stories, telling his editors that "I just want it to end. I'm not going to talk to anyone about anything really"

Yeah, just shutting up
works if your girl friend's wimpy
and finds you cheated.

I'm not sure it works
if you lie to the whole world
concerning war crimes!

How The New Republic Got Suckered

[Billthedrill]

They’re just in a data-gathering stage before they publish the massive apology article in their very next edition. That’d be the one written by the Tooth Fairy with pictures by the Easter Bunny.

[redpoll]

Dare I say phony soldier?

[weegee]

This soldier served and lied. Jesse Macbeth and other outspoken protesters (dating back to the Vietnam War) NEVER SERVED.

Scott and Jesse both committed treason by lying about attrocities so that they could provide aid and comfort to the enemy in a time of war. They sought to sink morale at home and among the troops and to rile up the enemy with “justification” for the terrorist acts that the “insurgents” are committing.

[Spiff]

You would have thought that The New Republic would have learned by now NOT to fake the news:

A cheaper/sleazier version of the Wilsons?:)
