Pretty weak argument. I do not see how they are being harmed. Normally military types have pretty thick skin. And as they say, sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me.

Spoken like an "ends justifies the means" kinda guy. BTW, it's not about you. One who has no clue what words like honor, duty, country truly mean. Someone to whom, "all's fair in love and war", is a cheap way to get laid which means you don't know the difference between intimacy and masturbation. So why don't you go play with yourself and leave the higher thinking to the adults in the room.

Someone who uses "sticks and stones may..." as a rejoinder on FreeRepublic? You must be a lawyer. Meh.

I know, it is about you. Sorry, but when you guys make such a big deal about some braggart and claim all this harm from it, you look like whiners and immature brats.

Hard to call yourself an adult when you live under the cloak of victim hood.

This guy, appointed by George W. Bush, however, is an adult:

U.S. District Judge Robert E. Blackburn issued his decision rejecting the prosecution’s argument that lying about having military medals dilutes their meaning and significance. “This wholly unsubstantiated assertion is, frankly, shocking and, indeed, unintentionally insulting to the profound sacrifices of military personnel the Stolen Valor Act purports to honor,” Blackburn wrote. "To suggest that the battlefield heroism of our servicemen and women is motivated in any way, let alone in a compelling way, by considerations of whether a medal may be awarded simply defies my comprehension."
