Seething hatebug Ted Rall doesn�t like soldiers:
It�s bad enough that a majority of soldiers voted for Bush in 2004. Over and over since the war began, American troops have been seen on television applauding Bush, Rumsfeld, Rice and others whose cynical recklessness have sent their buddies to their graves. Sailors cheered wildly when Bush staged his notorious �Mission Accomplished� photo op on an aircraft carrier. They swooned when he joined them for Thanksgiving dinner in Baghdad.
"The shocked and elated soldiers jumped to their feet, pumped their fists in the air, roared with delight, and grabbed their cameras to snap photographs,� reported CNN about Bush�s visit. A �standing ovation� followed. �It gave us a little extra oomph,� said a member of the 1st Armored Division. �It really boosted my morale,� said another. No one heckled or booed the imposter president. No one threw tomatoes. No one told him where he could stick his plastic turkey.
Again with the plastic turkey; it�s a litmus test for lumberheads. Still, there�s one way Rall could satisfy his craving to see soldiers heckle someone, throw tomatoes, and insert fictional polymer birds. He could turn up in Iraq himself and read his column to the troops.

Quite right and if I ever see this Ted Rall fellow, I'll tell him where to stick his plastic turkey.
Oh, for the record, the turkey was a real cooked honey-glazed turkey.
MMMM... delicious honey glazed turkey; can't wait for Thanksgiving.
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in Canada too  |
