Both are claims that Dickey denies. He said he wants to help veterans as a congressman if he&#8217;s elected.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I did not deliberately try to lie to the public, the only thing I did was generalize my statements, and I&#8217;m here on Action News 5 to clarify that,&#8221; Dickey said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He can call it a &#8220;generalized statement&#8221; and our opinion, but how does he explain this from an article in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsweek.com\/us-ready-wave-iraq-vets-111201\">Newsweek<\/a> in 2006;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Ron Dickey wanted to make the Army his career. When he joined the service at 19 he traded Rienzi, Miss.\u2014a town with fewer than 500 residents\u2014for a world of opportunities. Ambitious, Dickey became a member of the elite special forces and fought in the first Persian Gulf War. But when he got back from the Middle East, he developed extensive skin abrasions. He still doesn&#8217;t know if he was exposed to something during the war, but his health began to deteriorate quickly. In addition to the mysterious skin disease, he came down with diabetes and he already had some hearing loss. In 1993, he opted not to re-enlist.<\/p>\n<p>Dickey first tried his hand at police work back home in Mississippi. But his health wasn&#8217;t up to it. So he went on the job market only to find that with a resume strong on weaponry but weak on Microsoft Word he was bouncing from one low-paying job to another. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He was a cook in Korea during the Gulf War, but the article says that &#8220;Dickey became a member of the elite special forces and fought in the first Persian Gulf War&#8221;. That&#8217;s not a lie of omission, that&#8217;s a flat out lie. He claims that he got a skin disease from service in the Middle East &#8211; and he caught the diabetes there, too. It&#8217;s tough to catch an illness from a certain geographical location when you&#8217;re most of the way around the world from that geographical location.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s not my opinion &#8211; that&#8217;s the way it is. It has nothing to do with his skin color like some commenters at the news article want to make it. A glance at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?page_id=30655\">Stolen Valor page<\/a> shows many more white faces than minorities.
