Jerry McNerney wants your help!

Dear Philip,

You won’t believe this.

Yesterday, right-wing icon Rush Limbaugh insulted everyone who has served our nation in uniform.

In an exchange with a caller, he actually called troops who return from Iraq and voice their opposition to the war "phony soldiers."

Where does Rush Limbaugh get the moral standing to pass judgment on our heroes who wore this nation’s uniform and returned to exercise their First Amendment rights? Even for Rush, that’s too far!

Will you join me in calling the following radio stations to demand they take Rush’s show off the air?

KWSX in Stockton – (209) 551-1280
KSFO in San Francisco – (415) 954-7449
KFBK in Sacramento – (916) 929-5325

I can’t do it justice to simply describe it, so below is the show’s transcript:

CALLER: No, it’s not, and what’s really funny is, they never talk to real soldiers. They like to pull these soldiers that come up out of the blue and talk to the media.

LIMBAUGH: The phony soldiers.

CALLER: The phony soldiers. If you talk to a real soldier, they are proud to serve. They want to be over in Iraq. They understand their sacrifice, and they’re willing to sacrifice for their country.

I’ve talked to lots of real soldiers. My son is a real soldier who signed up for the Air Force after the horrific attacks on September 11th. To suggest that men and women in uniform who serve and return critical of a conflict are "phony" is appalling – and it’s wrong.

This is the latest, and most insulting, in a string of right-wing talking points that insult the sacrifice and commitment made by our military men and women.

Serving in Iraq, knowing the harsh reality of that conflict, earns a soldier the right to be truthful and critical. And it should certainly earn them more respect from a chickenhawk like Rush Limbaugh.

Demand these local stations take the Rush Limbaugh show off the air.

KWSX in Stockton – (209) 551-1280
KSFO in San Francisco – (415) 954-7449
KFBK in Sacramento – (916) 929-5325

This would be funny if this Idiot was not running for President….

Mittless the Witless shows a fine campaigning style…for a lying Republican member of the uber-rich. This slick-talking  waste of skin is the very definition of uber-rich.

And…..

He thinks Americans are dumb enough to buy this totally absurd bullshit.

Current Primary Dates

From MyDD we have:

Jan. 5:   Iowa caucuses (both parties)
Jan. 8:   New Hampshire primary (both parties)
Jan. 12:  Nevada caucuses (both parties)
Jan. 15   Michigan GOP primary; Dem beauty contest
Jan. 19:  South Carolina primary (both parties)

If Edwards wins Iowa, a real possibility given The Hill’s concealed negatives, the race will be wide open. The national polling showing Mrs. Lobbyist is not relevant. It’s the primaries stupid!
