Fighting words (Kerry's non reponse, response to Rush)

Fighting words

There's nothing Rush Limbaugh relishes more than getting into the middle of a good verbal brawl, and he's found one with Sen. John Kerry's spokesman, David Wade.

It all began when Mr. Limbaugh announced last week on his radio show that the Swift Boat Veterans for President Bush who challenged the Vietnam-era recollections of the Massachusetts Democrat in the 2004 presidential campaign "were right on the money, and nobody has disproven anything they claimed in any of their ads, statements, written commentaries or anything of the sort."

Mr. Wade?

"At first I thought, that's not Rush, that's just the OxyContin talking. Nonetheless, this is a despicable but unsurprising new lie from a man whose closest brush with combat came when customs officials tried to take away his Viagra."

Wow!

"This portly peddler of hate is once again wrong on the facts," Mr. Wade continued.

Ouch!

"Rush Limbaugh's ignorance and determination to divide Americans is just another reminder that you can't spell 'Rush Limbaugh' without the letters L-I-A-R."

Stay tuned, obviously, for round three.

John Kerry lied in the 70’s and he is lying now. My proof is that I served a “full” tour of duty in Viet Nam, John Kerry d, id not. Why is John Kerry the only one with a white uniform in Viet Nam, was that for his Saigon museum?
John Kerry is a liar. My proof is that I killed no babies nor no water buffalo nor no civilians. I killed a lot of trees but no humans Mr Kerry. You are a liar! My Purple heart was signed properly by my Commander and not by someone outside of channels. Did you sign your own orders for metals?

Mr Kerry was and still is a liar!

Wrong! Rush is in combat everyday with anti-American assw*pes like you, Wade, and Kerry.

What Yahoo goes back to film a reenactment of military skirmishes a day or two after an injury? Did Senator John Kerry have written permission to commandeer soldiers for the video? If not, why wasn’t he court-martialled for that or given a dishonorable discharge? What would be the punishment? These scenes were shown to the country - what other proof do we need?
Also, he has admitted ‘youthful’ indescretions when speaking of war crimes in Vietnam which he recounted as having witnessed. Why are there no charges brought against him for false testimony? Who is doing the ‘swiftboating?’
(I realize this is a little off topic but they are questions I have had from the beginning.)

This link should work. Its part of today's Inside the Beltway column. It starts near the end of the first page.

Kerry lied repeatedly

That is not correct! He MISSPOKE repeatedly.

His normal appearance is what Stan Laurel worked hard to archive. Yes! He as dumb as he looks.

Christmas in Cambodia and Nixon sent him there. Right.

I can just see Rush grinning from ear to ear on this one. LOL. This one will be just too easy.

Mr. Wade sure is a petulant little princess, isn’t he?

Can’t spell “John Kerry” without spelling “JERK,” either.

Is Wade the one who refused to answer when asked by a reporter whether Jean-Fraude was less than honorably discharged before he was honorably discharged?

As Rush says, a Liberal can’t ever argue for more than 20 seconds without resorting to name calling.

He’s going to have fun with this.

This is a great example of why I hate when we use the juvenile “Hitlery” and other such childish name-calling. We need to argue the points, not act like third graders.

Right on.

I don't like all those photshopped pictures either. They're not even funny, let alone grownup.

Just release that 180 and you can prove Rush and the
Swifties wrong. How about letting us all see that 180?

Kerry was discharged from the US Navy under less than
honorable conditions. Can't have facts like that out there
in the public domain. It would invalidate and nullify
his claim that he's a war hero and national treasure.

I will never forget what John O’Neill and Jerome Corsi did for their country in stopping that POS from becoming President.

Typical lying lib response.

They never address the statement or question they just go into damage control mode and start tossing red herrings through the air.

SIX STEPS OF LIBERAL OBFUSCATION:

1 -Twist the facts ("Swift Boat Veterans for President Bush")

2 - Make not too subtle hints that the other person isn't mentally competent ("that's just the OxyContin talking")

3 - Ridicule the opposition ("officials tried to take away his Viagra")

4 - Accuse them of sinister motives ("determination to divide Americans")

5 - Call the other person names ("portly peddler of hate").

6 - Accuse them of lying ("can't spell 'Rush Limbaugh' without the letters L-I-A-R")

But they never directly respond to the original statement.

That's not true!!!!!

It's more like 10 seconds.
