Phony Senators

Undoubtedly, anyone logging onto the Internet has seen the absurd attack of Rush Limbaugh by Senate Democrats claiming that Rush slandered our troops when he pointed out that leftists posing as former soldiers have criticized the United States military in a variety of forums including You-tube. Not even considering the blatant misrepresentation of his comments it should raise eye brows when such accusations are applied to someone who has supported our troops as much as any public figure the past two decades. His immense popularity with the troops is evidenced by his devoted audience tuning in on the Armed Forces Radio Network. Oh, get this, phony former presidential candidate Wesley Clark has asked Congress to remove the Rush Limbaugh program from Armed Forces Radio in response to the Democrat's trumped up accusations. Arizona Senator John Kyl captured the essence of the situation perfectly. “It’s troubling that some Democrats have taken a comment by Rush Limbaugh about “phony soldiers” totally out of context in order to find some moral equivalence to get them off the hook for refusing to condemn the MoveOn.org 'Petraeus' ad," he said. “The only thing phony about this is the contrived controversy."
