(10/12/08) "Top Investigator In Palin Troopergate Smear Campaign Is Phony Soldier" (Gateway Pundit) Obama Supporter Hollis Lied & Claimed He was a Marine
Quote: Democratic state Senator Hollis French, the lead investigator in the smear campaign against Governor Palin, promised his party that the results of the Troopergate probe would be an "October surprise" that would "likely be damaging to the administration."
French is one of the 20%'ers in Alaska who does not approve of Governor Sarah Palin.
He also is a staunch Obama supporter.
Hollis French and Monegan are close friends.
On his resume French states that he served in the Marine Corps:

However, this does not appear to be accurate.
Hollis "Gunny" French (D)-- is guilty of misrepresenting that he served in the Marine Corps - when in fact his ONLY exposure to the Marine Corp was attending a Marine ROTC PLC - from which he was DISMISSED and granted a "Discharge" as a Private.
--He NEVER attended, much less graduate from either of the USMC Boot Camps.
--He FAILED to pass the ROTC Platoon Leader Course - thus failing to make the grade to become a Marine Officer.
--Hardly service as a Marine, and the folks in Alaska caught up with French's claims....
--Folks in Alaska to this day, still jokingly refer to the jackass poseur as "Gunny French" and he hates the reminder of his lie.

Now isn’t that special! Think he will resign? Will the MSM run with this. /S
Good find!
vaudine
Thanks! And also to the HCF, while we may not agree on all issues, there’s no doubt that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.
I just sent “Gunny” an email telling him what a coward I think he is, and how fitting it is that he had to lie about his “service” while Gov. Palin’s son is actually fighting.
Gunny French! I love it!
ATTENTION McCain/Palin campaign, RNC. We have a nice one liner here to insert into the debate.
Now that really burns my biscuit. String this little cockroach up after convicting him of Treason...
Better yet, Send Him to Boot Camp and tell the DI's that it's ok to go "old school" on his sorry ass...
If true, this “Gunny” Hollis French is a slimeball.
He has some nerve “investigating” Sarah Palin! He needs to be exposed and ridiculed. And if he has broken any laws by lying on his resume, charges need to be proffered.
(In NZ you can go to gaol for lying on your resume. It falls under “Fraud”)
I just sent the info and link to Drudge — keep your fingers crossed.
This has been out there for along time. Glad HRCs folks have finally picked up on it.
Wonder if he has dress blues with ribbons hanging in his closet.
Maggot.
There are very few things that piss me off more than these “Fake Soldiers”. They need to experience a “blanket party”.
Disgraced Jim Lehrer (PBS, Democrat): "At PBS, and the rest of the hated mainstream media,
we could not care if the top Palin Troopergate Investigator was a Phony Marine or a cannibal.
We support resume fraud, and daily withhold news and our own financial entanglements.
Now, how many dozens of Gwen's book on Obama's Inaguration would you like?"
I don't wanna go to gaol.
Jail is bad enough.
I wonder if French will resign..... or SURRENDER?
bttt
More “Stolen Valor”.
Disgusting.
Depending on what he actually claimed about his service, this scumbag may very well be eligible for prosecution under the Federal Stolen Valor Act.
Are there any citations for these quotes?
