Dana Loesch Responds"Progressives Felt As Though These Marines Should Be Bowing To The Taliban"

CNN's Dana Loesch responded to the growing controversy surrounding her comments dismissing outrage over video apparently showing U.S. Marines urinating on dead bodies by saying that her critics "felt as though these Marines should be bowing to the Taliban ... just like this administration does."

Earlier this week, after video emerged that appeared to show members of the United States Marine Corps urinating on dead bodies that early reports have identified as Afghans Loesch complained that "we have a bunch of progressives that are talking smack about our military because there were Marines caught urinating on corpses -- Taliban corpses." Military and national security experts from across the political spectrum have condemned the video and have pointed out that the actions depicted in it likely violate U.S. and international law.

Are you OK with that, too? If this act causes more Americans to die...was it worth it?

Dana Loesch is a great example of what happened after Reagan closed most of the mental hospitals ...

Crazy psychopaths like Dana, not only got to walk the streets, some like her got right wing radio shows!

soldiers dead bodies? This should not have happened for the same reason we should never have started torturing anyone. Because what you do to them will then be done to you.
