News flash:

That was an asinine comment by Limbaugh.

ANYONE who volunteers to serve in the military, for whatever motivation, is worthy of our respect and appreciation for THAT SERVICE. While whomever-it-was (I don't really know or care for purposes of this analysis) may or may not have had what we would consider to be a political motive, so what? He still did a job that so many of us benefit from as we sit back and electronically pontificate.

And don't give me the whole combat role/non-combat role. Certainly there is a continuum of personal risk, with special ops forces and carrier-based aviators at the top, down to folks in administrative roles. Sad truth is, a suicide bomb doesn't distinguish between whether you push the envelope or push paper.

Bryan, Len, let's have the integrity to call an asinine comment when we hear it, and not engage in selective outrage. It doesn't diminish the strength of conservative ideology one bit to admit that, despite the efforts of many here to suggest that one person's poor judgment is the indictment of an entire philosophical world view.
