How the Daily Kos “supports the troops”
This is sick. Just sick. Of course, DK tried to take it down before it got noticed, but thankfully a few bloggers got some screen caps of it.
I wonder if anyone got screen grabs of the comments section?

Flashback 4/1/2004: Kos to murdered contractors in Iraq:
Every death should be on the front page (2.70 / 40)
Let the people see what war is like. This isn’t an Xbox game. There are real repercussions to Bush’s folly.
That said, I feel nothing over the death of merceneries [sic]. They aren’t in Iraq because of orders, or because they are there trying to help the people make Iraq a better place. They are there to wage war for profit. Screw them.

No. Screw you, jerk.

Stats
After 20 years in the US Air Force and flying near 600 combat and combat support hours, all I can say is WOW!! I did like some of the comments though.
If the author wants to dismiss the draft, fine. But the number of serial killers with military training versus the number of total Americans with military training and experience is statistically unmeasureable. As of 2004 (the last year I saw a number) there are 26 million Americans with military training and experience.
What I would have liked the author to do would have been to compare the serial killers with military experience with gang bangers. I bet you would find almost no gang members with military experience. But I bet you would find that almost all are from a welfare environment!! I wonder how the author would reconcile the behavior of the gang bangers?
So the KozKidz think that the U.S. Military turns people into serial killers and rapists?
I wonder if the Kidz think that Markos Moulitsas Zúniga — who served a brief stint in the Army — is a rapist? Surely, between John Kerry, John Murtha, Jimmy Carter, and Teddy Kennedy, at least one of them must be a cold-blooded killer.
Never mind, bad example — I forgot: one of them is a cold-blooded murderer.
Robbie,
I think if you look up http://www.ytedk.com you will find alot more information on the subject you refer to.

Vet,
Good points. That post was just a typical Kossack anti-military smear. Every now and then they show their true colors and feelings, and almost as quickly realize it and remove the post. There’s no substance to it at all.
And as one USAF vet to another, keep ‘em flying, and thanks for the 20 years of service to America.
Great White Rat,
Thank you and back at you for your service. You honor us with your sevice!!! Go Air Force!!!
