Thanks, I took a look at the video.

Actually, I'm seeing that ABC called the show "phony heroes". Are you saying Rush got "phony soldiers" from ABC's "phony heroes"? I didn't hear even Rush make that claim.

Not sure of the point anyway. Everyone acknowledges there are scam artists and bums out there like Macbeth. Definitely those are phony soldiers - hence the ABC story. Where Rush crossed the line was extending this to every military man who has questioned the war.

Rush is being consistent. He's said many times before that those who oppose the war are lefties, libs, "un-americans" who hate America and give aid and support to the enemy. Traitors, in other words. (In fact, pretty much what you labeled me in a previous post). So in Rush's eyes (and yours) I'm already a traitor, it seems. Thus, if I served in the military, it wouldn't be much of a stretch for Rush to call me a "phony soldier" as well.

My last post on this topic. Feel free to have the last word.
