    Verbal attacks can get you a purple heart now? By god, that Alec Baldwins daughter might get the fucking silver star.

    While as much as I disagree with their actions giving it to him, it was their decision to do so.

    It's his medal, he can do what he wants with it ... I can't fathom the thought process though.

    He did (maybe... things concerning his reserve status are a little fuzzy) protect Houston from the Vietcong Air Force. He probably stubbed his toe a few times climbing into his cockpit buzzed on an eight ball and top shelf scotch.

    From a PR standpoint, wouldn't have been better to respectfully decline?

    Instead of "hey I thought these things were harder to get?"

    Shoot, he invited them to the White House so they could give it to him PERSONALLY. What a tool. The man who gave it to him is an idiot, IMO.

    I'm assuming w/ the fine PR this administration has done w/ Jessica Lynch and Pat Tillman that they were all over this like flies on shit.

    Wow, Bush has totally lost it. What an insult to all the men and women of the Armed Forces. What's next for Bush, a Nobel Peace Prize?

    A trip to the White House, wow, the price of whoring one's honor.
    (psst, they still have tours)

    You could have dropped that purple heart next to that "black wall" of names for those that didn't make it back. Or didn't you know that "wall" existed in the same city as the White House?

    Your medal and you're free to do what you want with it, but some things should just make you feel dirty.
    SIN EATERS--We take the moral excrement we find in this equation and we bury it down deep inside of us so that the rest of our case can stay pure. That is the job. We are morally indefensible and absolutely necessary.
