Brown went where he should not go these days. <a href=\"http:\/\/thedailyrecord.com\/2014\/04\/21\/gansler-criticizes-brown-on-leadership-service-in-iraq\/\">He told a crowd that<\/a> \u201cYou know I\u2019m running against somebody who has never managed anybody, never run anything. You know his ads are about how he was a lawyer in Iraq, and that\u2019s all fine and good, but this is a real job.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Brown is a JAG Lieutenant Colonel with a tour in Iraq, whereas Gansler graduated from High School at trendy Sidwell Friends and attended Yale. Yeah, that&#8217;s his whole experience besides being a lawyer. According to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/local\/md-politics\/brown-updates-state-biography-to-include-work-with-wealth-management-firm-in-1999\/2014\/04\/21\/8732d632-c96b-11e3-93eb-6c0037dde2ad_story.html\">Washington Post<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Brown had served five years of active duty in the U.S. Army and 10 years in the Army Reserve. He also had obtained a law degree from Harvard, worked four years at the Washington law firm of Wilmer Cutler &#038; Pickering, and was elected to the House of Delegates representing a Prince George\u2019s County district.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And now Gansler has made me quote and agree with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quintonreport.com\/2014\/04\/21\/democrat-implies-opponents-military-service-wasnt-a-real-job\/\">Jon Soltz<\/a> of VoteVets;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>    Jon Soltz, chair of VoteVets.org, a political action committee that endorsed Brown for governor, called the statement \u201cslime ball politics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>    \u201cDoug Gansler needs to stop smearing those of us who served in Iraq as not having had a \u2018real job,\u2019\u201d Soltz said in a statement. \u201cIt\u2019s a horrible insult to all those men and women who put their lives on the line, and especially those who died, in service to this country.  Additionally, Mr. Gansler, if he chooses to attack an Iraq War veteran, ought to at least admit that the person he is attacking has been serving as Maryland\u2019s lieutenant governor.  This kind of slime ball politics is what turns people off to our democratic process, so Mr. Gansler is doing no favors for Maryland or our democratic electoral system by playing in the gutter like this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>    Soltz went on to demand an apology from Gansler.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Of course, Soltz couldn&#8217;t help but remind us that he went to Iraq, too. And it was made easier because Brown is a Democrat. But, then so is Gansler. It wasn&#8217;t hard for me at all because Gansler is a giant pussy and he reminds me of someone else we all know from Montgomery County who waves his dick around hoping someone will salute him.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?attachment_id=44347\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-44347\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/AG_Gansler-214x300.jpg\" alt=\"AG_Gansler\" width=\"214\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-44347\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/AG_Gansler-214x300.jpg 214w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/AG_Gansler-238x333.jpg 238w, https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/AG_Gansler.jpg 429w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 214px) 100vw, 214px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Dick. By the way, Gansler made the comment as Brown is rising past him in the polls. That&#8217;s all he has? Seriously? Maybe he should warn voters that Brown might have PTS and start gunning down people in the state&#8217;s capital. Pompous fuck.<\/p>\n<p>Did I mention that the State AG&#8217;s office is a broke dick piece of shit and Brown needs to clean the whole damn place out and put in some prosecutors who will do their jobs? Especially in Montgomery County, where Gansler screwed the pooch before he moved to his current job.
