Do you ever wonder anyone pays attention to blowhards like Andy Rooney?

Treating soldiers fighting their war as brave heroes is an old civilian trick designed to keep the soldiers at it.

Thank God this guy wasn't a nationally-known commentator while US soldiers were fighting the Japanese in the Pacific, and the Germans in Europe.

Dan Rather implied (not too subtley) that the four contractors who were murdered in Fallujah wouldn't have been there if they had found decent jobs in the US. These people hate America. What I want to know is: Where does free speech end and sedition begin?

"Rooney is a barf bag...without the bag....."

Stop for a minute and just imagine for a minute... no conservative talk radio/TV talking heads. It's easy to do. But imagine if Americans had no way to get "real" common sense info. Thanks Rush, Sean, Neal, Michael, Dennis, etc. Keep up the battle.

Shep Smith just did the same re: Hammill.

I'm boycotting MSNBC hence watching Smith, when I used to avoid him as one of my least favorite Fox "personalities".

This is a despicable piece and the Buffalo News should be inundated with calls and letters denouncing such vile commentary!

If anyone has the telephone number and/or email address for the newspaper I would appreciate you posting it here.

The Marine Corps 1st Marine Division lost 23 of it's own in the last eight days. And the widows and orphans should not be insulted with such garbage from Rooney.

Semper Fi,
Kelly

I very rarely rant if ever but this makes me sick. Many of you will say this with much more eloquent phases than I can muster at the moment, but someone just needs to slap this man to the ground....

And if it isn't to much for this elitist, condescending, jerk I will decide for myself who are my heroes. The men and women serving in our military are heroes to me.

"If I see him on a street coner, I am really going to have to resist the urge to punch him in the face".

I know a guy who came very close to running over Stephanopolous at an intersection in NYC. Unfortunately, he didnt realize who it was and came to a stop.

Ok. That sets me off right now. What!!!!!!!! Our guys are not our heroes!!!. I am about to join finest military in the world, and this jack ass has balls to insult me like that!!!

What in a freaking world is going on with these people? If they don't like this country then get the hell out of this country and move to North Korea. Maybe then you Andy Rooney and all of you traitors, Kerry, Kennedy, Palosi and others will understand what freedom is all about.

This really pisses me off!!! Who the hell this guy thinks he is. Oh lord, I wish my grandma was a life, she will slap his b... ass so hard they would need to call best aliens surgeons to fix his left colon.

This is outrageous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
