Read Replies (1) | Respond to of 1578046 FOUL: Politico Reporter Demeans Troops, Declares ‘Reagan F***s Satan in Hell’ Truth Revolt ^ | 11/20/2013 Politico reporter Ian Murphy took his disrespect for the United States military and Ronald Reagan to new depths on Tuesday as he launched into a profanity-laced, anti-military Twitter tirade. Prompted by an article by Breitbart ’s Stephen K. Bannon which highlighted a piece Murphy had written entitled “ F** the troops ,” Murphy spewed even more anti-military vitrio l Tuesday, saying among other foul things, that “Reagan f***s Satan in hell” and U.S. troops do "nothing" to protect fellow Americans' free speech. As Breitbart ’s Matthew Boyle reports , after several people tweeted Murphy about his “F*** the troops” piece, Murphy lashed out, lacing his tweets with F-bombs. Here are some highlights: Then, one self-identified military veteran named Matthew Laas tweeted at him asking him if he would say “f*** the troops” to the “face of any military member” like himself. Murphy responded by asking if he read the article , and Laas said he had . Then Laas tweeted a follow-up to Murphy saying , “hey write what you want, it is a free country, people like my brothers and myself gave you the right to spew your hate.” Laas responded : “besides fight, bleed, and kill those who would rather cut you throat than look at you, for the past 16 years?” Murphy continued his onslaught by mocking the work of America's military. And calling them rapists... And calling them murderers. The fact that he is only able to show such disdain toward the troops because of the work of the troops themselves, who for over two hundred years have stood as a bulwark against tyranny is utterly lost on Murphy.
