Its not a "misspoke" thing, these are cowardly lies. These are dishonorable lies.
Every vet knows this.
I'm not easily offended; however as a vet, this does cross that threshold for moi.
Blumenthal, you are a dishonorable, lying coward!
.
I applied to a Connecticut based corporation in 1980 and included references in my resume to my service in Vietnam (1968-1969) and the decorations and service medals I received.
The individual guiding me through the process told me we might want to scrub my resume of the Vietnam service. As he explained, “these people at the corporate headquarters in Connecticut are openly hostile to Vietnam veterans and will regard you as somewhere between a war criminal and scum.”
I told him the Vietnam stuff stayed and if I didn’t get the position, it would not be the first and likely not the last job I lost because of my Vietnam service.
Thank you for your service to your country.
You live in a character challenged state and get what you deserve :-}
With out dear reader, our country is descending into levels heretofore only known in places like Zimbabwe and Kenya.
OK, no control over deferments? Right. You HAVE TO have connections to get a deferment for being “Katherine Graham’s special assistant”.
Just another scum bag well heeled, well connected lying oily politician. Where the hell did we produce all these sanctimonious jerks? Oh yeah, Harvard.
Blumenthal’s buddy on stage is POW HALL OF SHAME

I commend you and the Connecticut Tea Party Patriots. In my comments, I was talking about the Democrat Primary Voters. My apologies for the misunderstanding.
