Brain washed veterans

[powerboatr]

Now we have a true wounded warrior, Tammy Duckworth....supporting the "i haven't had a budget in three years" or the " death panel" guy
Its horrific she was horribly wounded and now they sensationalized her loss of leg...

its a pity she has had the kool-aid
as 100% disabled veteran I havent seen the current pres do much to make my VA experience better.

A little insight to the story would be appreciated. Possibly a link to the story.

I believe the OP is referring to Capt. Duckworth, who's running for Congress in Illinois, speaking at tonight's DNC.

For Duckworth, who is running in a northwest suburban district against tea party-backed freshman Republican Rep. Joe Walsh, it was the second appearance on the national stage in two consecutive conventions. The story of her rescue after the Blackhawk assault helicopter she was piloting was shot down in Iraq in 2004 provided the theme for her speech.

The Captain is quite a courageous woman, no doubt. She should be thanked again and again for her service and sacrifice.

She's a Lieutenant Colonel now. I believe she has earned the right to be wrong.

Wow! Talk about mixed feelings towards someone.

Yeah, but insisting on your right to be wrong is just stupid. Sadly, stupid cant be fixed.

Even the military has some idiots in it.

She visited the VA in Houston not long ago. Word was she was more interested in making her photo ops and speeches than connecting with any of the heroes there. Typical career politician, IMO.

No she has not.

I agree, military service doesn't give you the right to be a part of a party that will destroy everything good about the U.S.A. That muslim psychologist at Ft. Hood that murdered good soldiers proved that. Duckworth is a member of the democrat party who calls that massacre "workplace violence" instead of a terrorist act against our country.

Wake up people, political correctness is killing your country.
