Seems the State AG in CT, Mr. Blumethal, has been telling folks he was in Vietnam during his time in the Marine Corps Reserve. This Ain't Hell got him in this lie. The dirtbag was in Vietnam as much as I was. I wasn't. But I also served during the last two years or so of our involvement there. Started in September of 73, I did. And in the Regular Navy, it was. First duty station was United States Ship, Independence CV62 out of Norfolk, Virginia. Nothing special or extraordinary, just a sea tour for an AA to AMH2.
Vietnam Era, yes, I will give him that. But in SE Asia? I think not. Sad to see Marines actually standing up for him. I saw part of the press conference, spectacle or tap dance routine at lunch.
Irregardless, the man lied to all. As a Marine he should have thought long and hard about that. But being a Democrat in a small, socialist, welfare state and adored by the left is his pass. Marines, past, present and future should make sure that the voters in CT get the straight skinney about this man.
The Old Retired Petty Officer has no use for him, even as a man. All his claims to any respect and honour are now null and void.
And he got into the marine Corps reserve without having any strings pulled. Then he managed to be in school to avoid service in Viet nam. The crowning blow was that he chose to cover his tracks by saying he misspoke. There ought to be a group of guys out there that tatoo USMC on hie ass and scramble the letters (SCUM). MUD
ReplyDeleteThat's a TERRIFIC idea, MUD! A bit too kind, but terrific all the same.
ReplyDeleteAnother bit of proof that I'm glad I don't watch the news.
Dirtbag Maggot.
ReplyDeleteI'm sending that out from a former Marine Reservist, me.
Yep. Worthless POS but then we already knew that because he chose to become a politician.
