All the Soldiers Refute All the Claims. All of them.

By podcasts@redstate.com (Redstate Network) on War

Others, like Jeff, will I'm sure say more better than I, but the day should not get too far gone without mentioning this AP report:

<<< The Army said this week it had concluded an investigation of Beauchamp's claims and found them false.

"During that investigation, all the soldiers from his unit refuted all claims that Pvt. Beauchamp made in his blog,"
Sgt. 1st Class Robert Timmons, a spokesman in Baghdad for the 4th Brigade, 1st Infantry Division, based at Fort Riley, Kan., said in an e-mail interview. >>>

The New Republic used Scott Thomas Beauchamp used the New Republic to expound on how war turns all soldiers into rogue cretins. All those soldiers, at least the ones Scott Thomas Beauchamp served with, have now refuted all of Scott Thomas Beauchamp's claims.

Are all the soldiers liars or just Scott Thomas Beauchamp? And if all soldiers are liars, isn't Scott Thomas Beauchamp, a soldier himself, a liar? Or are only those soldiers Scott Thomas Beauchamp serves with day in and day out sharing the same experiences liars?

TheNew Republic still has a lot of explaining to do.
