The GOP said Tammy Duckworth doesn’t ‘stand up’ for vets. The problem? She lost her..

Re: The GOP said Tammy Duckworth doesn’t ‘stand up’ for vets. The problem? She lost h

What a bunch of idiots to say something like that.

Sounds like someone pulled a Joe.

A patriotic woman who left 2 legs on the battlefield is being called unpatriotic? The GOP seems to be full of total douche bags these days.

How many people do you think have rights to post using that twitter account? Tens, hundreds, thousands?

The bunch of one.

Does that GOP Twitter account actually belong to the GOP, or some fat slob sitting behind a keyboard in the basement of his mommies home?

Just another reason why I'm voting GOP next Tuesday in IL to vote against sleazy Sen. Kirk and for Warren.
Which also affords me the opportunity to vote for my GOP Congressman and Veteran Adam Kinzinger .

It's a verified account for the National Republican Senatorial Committee. It appears to be a privately-run fundraising arm; however, it is chaired by an active Senator.

I'm pretty sure the GOP wouldn't let just any fat slob use its name.

Although I can see how Chris Christie, Rush Limbaugh, and Karl Rove might be confusing you on that point.

Sen. Kirk has run the same ads against Congresswoman Duckworth.
Followed immediately by a Veteran's group bashing Sen. Kirk for voting against funds to protect USA soldiers in the Middle East .

Pretty ignorant response considering you have no idea who I may listen to on a radio, or endorse as a candidate.

The "stand up" remark is just stupid, idiotic, asinine..... Just because she is a vet doesn't buy much mileage with me (being a vet I know a lot of vets). I would have to look at her record. I think someone is trying to keep their job right about now for that stupid post but it isn't a whole gang of people like the two posts that I responded to seemed to indicate. That would be like me bashing every democrat for Biden's stupid remark.

Please show me.

I have no problem with bashing anyone who would make a Twitter post like that.

Until then..... I am not convinced.

That's nothing new. They work hard to dodge the draft, get deferments from their daddies, scream about sending 'brave' (read: working class) Americans off to wars of glory, and then treat them like dirt when they come back.

Remember Max Cleland? The 'traitor' amputee?
 
Re: The GOP said Tammy Duckworth doesn’t ‘stand up’ for vets. The problem? She lost h

The phrasing was just awful. Awful. But was the intent malicious?

Being a DEM Veteran like Tulsi Gabbard, who is for Sanders, seems to be buying a lot of mileage with GOP Veterans .

This isn't a mistake by Sen. Kirk---it's how he operates.

I'm sure our GOP Veterans would be interested in how Kirk has embellished his own service record .

Reminds me of when Joe Biden tells Missouri state Senator Chuck Graham (who is in a wheelchair) 'stand up chuck, let em see ya'

Why? Because you think Biden did it to mock Graham?

I like her too. She has more in the way of balls than 99% of the rest of the house and she is smart.
