FACE PALM! What an unfortunate metaphor.
Good for Tammy that she called out this phony and his scheming money from the government. Now she should take a look at the party she represents who have been stealing from citizens for years.
I wish she would go over and say the same things to our Secretary of State. Mr. Band-Aid wound himself.
OTOH, according to Wikipedia she's endorsed by the Brady Campaign and thinks citizens should be disarmed. According to Wikipedia, she's endorsed by EMILY's List, and thinks killing babies in utero is perfectly fine.
So IMO, LT COL Duckworth is an honourable veteran. REP Duckworth is a worthless POS.
The funny thing about Tammy Duckworth is the fact that the first time I heard of her was in a story about foreign born politicians in the Honolulu Advisor.
Care to take a shot at who the other foreign born politician was?
There are many of us who have some disability, approved by the VA after their review. Less than 50% provides a token (tax free, if retired) check.
Duckworth, Kerry (both of them), and Murtha are all cut from the same cloth: Marxists who try to make themselves bulletproof with their uniformed service.
We can include West in there as well, but he’s not a Marxist by any stretch.
Only kidding...no syphilis...but I often puked my guts out after visits to the mess hall.
I was wounded in 1971 an RPG or a Mortar landed behind my gun and I took allot of shrapnel in the upper part of my body, I recovered and to this day have yet to step into a VA facility. They owe me nothing! We have a VA hospital here my ex wife is a nurse there, my sister and her husband both retired from there and to hear the abuse stories they tell sickens me. It’s even worse now one of my buddies said almost 60% of his command in Iraq are going out claiming PTSD to get the lifetime benifits. Prescription drug addicts and alcoholics seem to be the mainstay for this hospital, maybe 10% have a real service related disability.
It is one of the great mysteries of life how one can serve as a member of the military (a most honorable thing), and yet become a democrat politician after leaving the military.
To me, these two professions lie at opposite ends of the honor and duty spectrum.
Sorry, but given how the liberals operate nowadays, I consider them the enemy...and so do increasing numbers of us.
It remains to be seen what the future will bring.
And she's a dim (party of corruption and lies) to boot!
Late hit, but having just watched this I have to chime in. While I seldom agree with her politics or the gerrymandered system that put her in office, as an IL resident I am proud of Rep. Duckworth today. I’ve always admired her courage and service, and while few are in the same position to pass judgement on this creep, fewer yet would do so as fearlessly.
Anyone else notice that she grabs the mic and removes her glasses with the right arm that she “can not feel”?
