Jonn Lilyeah blogged about Scott Olsen on his This Ain\u2019t Hell page:<\/p>\n<p>    Now, the hippies get to hide behind Olsen\u2019s broken body and make a martyr of him\u2026someone they would have spit on a few weeks ago and called a baby-killer. Scott, if you lay down with dogs, you get up with fleas. <\/p>\n<p>Lilyea says he \u201cfeels bad that Olsen was injured,\u201d but is ambivalent about who was responsible for his injury: \u201cHe was standing between people throwing rocks and the cops.\u201d But the real issue is that Olsen is a member of Iraq Veterans Against the War and Veterans for Peace. \u201cThose groups represent the opposite of what I believe in,\u201d says Lilyea, \u201cThe focus of my blog is to try and give people a better view of what veterans are, rather than people like Scott Olsen.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What I really said was TAH is about calling peole idiots, because I don&#8217;t think they know they&#8217;re idiots, and I&#8217;m the only one doing it. I said that  IVAW and VFP were only using Olsen&#8217;s bloody shirt to reise money. But apparently she didn&#8217;t want to say that outloud.<\/p>\n<p>I also asked where the concern was for Jose Guerena when Dupnik&#8217;s SWAT Association murdered the Marine Iraq veteran, Of course, she didn&#8217;t know what I was talking about nor did she look it up.<\/p>\n<p>Iguess I&#8217;ll never learn to that the media isn&#8217;t going to gt the story that no one else is doing, only the story that makes them feel good about themselves. I keep hoping that they&#8217;ll keep quoting what I say instead of what they want to hear.<\/p>\n<p>Not bad for a guy with just one eye, huh?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thanks to Mr Wolf for sending a link to my interview with Columbia Journalism Review.
