Wow, Stephen Colbert just did a GREAT "The Word" on the "Phony Soldiers"
Edited on Mon Oct-08-07 10:52 PM by Up2Late
Pointing out (and showing clips) of Fox "news" blaming Media Matters for America (NOT Rush Limpballs) for Reporting the Phony Soldiers incident!:banghead:

Here's a link for more info: <http://mediamatters.org/items/200709270010>

And in segment two, a great SCHIP for Kids segment!

Colbert Report video at this link soon (usually before 8:00am) and it's Viacom owned site, so it's legal: <http://www.ifilm.com/show/17677>

4. I love the "people joined the Army to fight in Iraq" or however Liimbaugh
put it.

Aren't a lot of our troops people who were given a choice of Army or Prison? I doubt their motivation would be to support Bush in his effort to ...whatever the fuck he's saying our goal is now.

...(and probably still would have) high Un-employment, because of bastards like Bush, packing up their companies and moving the manufacturing over to China, so they joined the Army, because it was about the only job within 100 miles, or the National Guard for that easy "...one weekend a month..." money. :banghead:

And then there's Rush Limpballs and his 4-F draft rating do to (I kid you not) Anal Cysts!!! :rofl: <http://www.snopes.com/military/limbaugh.asp>
