I would have thought a Lt. Col. (ret) would have known military rules, but I would be wrong, especially after Hunt’s faux-pas during his campaign kick off. It seems to be a common thread amongst Democrats in this state that rules and laws only apply when they want them to. Plain and simple Hunt broke military rules. A fellow veteran, who is not a lawyer as far as I know, called him out on it.

What is a trial lawyer turned Democrat candidate supposed to do when confronted with a violation of the the law? Turn to Daily Kos of course. I wonder if Jim Hunt’s “Montana Values” are the same as Markos “Screw ‘em” Moulitsas Zuniga’s. I wonder if Hunt holds the same disparaging view of those risking their lives to help Iraqi citizens;

That said, I feel nothing over the death of merceneries. 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.

Of course Markos’ sheep do not stray far from the shepherd (more of these can be found here):

“But do I still support the individual men and women who have given so much to serve their country? No. I think they’re a bunch of idiots. I also think they’re morally retarded. Because they sign a contract that says they will kill whoever you tell me to kill. And that is morally retarded.

Friends, the most important moral decision a man makes in the course of a day is “Who am I going to kill today?” That’s a decision you should agonize over, dream about, rehearse in your mind for hours, not just leave up to some hare-brained President you didn’t even vote for.

A man’s killing list is a very personal matter. It should be between him and those persistent voices in his head. So to sum up, I don’t like our troops, I don’t like what they’re doing, I don’t like their fat, whining families, and yet, I support them. Thank God I live in a free country. Thank You.” - - AWhitneyBrown

I would have thought a Lt. Col. (ret) would have known better than to enlist this kind of support. I thought wrong.

Sure, you found the same thing and beat me to it by 5 minutes. Good post though.
