A man who would screw over his troops is not a man. He’s a blue falcon, the lowest form of creature imagineable. And no matter how you couch a deserter in terms of doing what he thought was right and all that horseshit, nothing obviates the need to care for your troops. Which is why this story has me really pissed today.<\/p>\n

The Department of Justice has dropped its case against 1st Lt. Ehren Watada, a war resister who refused Iraq deployment in June 2006 and denounced President George W. Bush\u2019s decision to invade as illegal and immoral.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m not even going to go into the rest of the article, but a man who deserted his troops, and left them to enter combat without them is no man. And I refuse to believe he is. And make no mistake in thinking this shitdick acted out of some sense of nobility, he didn’t. His Dad was a fruitloop, and the son is a fruit-loop.<\/p>\n

But, I can find some solace in the fact that 2 soldiers I have known, and 1 I wish I had known have birthdays today, and none of them ever left their men behind. So, happy birthday to Southern Democrat* (we need a new name bud) and 1SG B who visit here, and when you get a chance this evening, give a toast to a true warrior who gave his life for all of us and thus won’t be celebrating his birthday today: Michael Patrick Murphy, Navy Seal, and MOH Recipient.<\/a><\/p>\n
