Al, > How can you call yourself objective. You rally to support a man like rush limbaugh ...

How can YOU call yourself objective when all you do is scan Huffington, MediaMatters.org, and any other left-wing site for material written by anti-war veterans? This as you dismiss my conversations with actual Iraq war veterans, some close to home and serving in Camp Pendleton, as "not backed by fact."

Don't pretend that your over-enthusiasm to attack Rush is something you can hide. Those are the actions of an "objective person with the ability to think"? ROFL ...
