*Daily Outrage*
bq. Conservative allies of the White House have resorted to attacking the military service of former Sen. Max Cleland (D-GA), a triple-amputee war hero decorated for his service in Vietnam.
This is just outrageous. I don’t know what makes me more angry, the fact that someone would be allowed to broadcast this kind of slander, knowing it will be peddled as fact by “rip and read” conservative news organs, or that no one will repudiate these comments before they become woven into the fabric of the debate.
Despicable. A soldier covers a grenade to save his brother soldiers, 4 days after winning the Silver Star for gallantry, and the best a grateful nation can do is allow worthless pundits to disparage him.
