The Military is Investigating Over 60 Phony Soldiers

October 5, 2007

  As everyone knows by now, Rush Limbaugh has come under fire by Democrats on the senate floor because he called a man who falsified and embellished his military service a phony soldier. Now comes word that the military is actually investigating over sixty soldiers who have falsified their military record. In other words the military is investigating over sixty phony soldiers.

Macbeth, 23, gained the most attention of those Sullivan has prosecuted, in part because he became a hero of the anti-Iraq war movement. He claimed to have witnessed his fellow American soldiers commit atrocities in Iraq, when in fact he was never there.

  Talking to a caller to his program, Rush specifically was talking about Macbeth when he used the term phony soldier. The left has spun his comments to persuade the American people that Rush was saying that any soldier that served in Iraq and opposes the war is a phony soldier.

  The only reason I keep bringing this issue up is that I believe that the Democrats are trying to use this trumped up controversy to re-instate the fairness doctrine in an attempt to silence those that oppose them. This issue, to me, is larger than just Rush Limbaugh. This is a fight we must win or forever lose the freedom of conservative speech. When did words become criminal? The left will slowly but surely stamp out the voice of the opposition if we don’t STOP THIS NOW. If we don’t stop this now, we will wake up one morning without any forum to voice our opinions and we will wonder what the hell happened.

    they used the phony controversy as another stick in their fascist agenda. and as you pointed out, if unchecked they could actually silence public discourse… well, at least one side of it

    To liberals “freedom of speech” really means “freedom to agree with their speech” and nothing more. Trying to reimpose the so called Fairness Doctrine is proof of that. What those short sigted asses never seem to get is that people will use that exact same bludgeon against them in ways they will never see coming.
