1. The MSM is catching on

2. Don't tell her that...

3. Did he really crash 5 planes?

[UTUSN]

5. At least 3 because of questionable/risky negligence, 2 sort of shot

Like the one on the USS Forrestal where the rocket went through his plane, then the shoot-down one.


But we have at least one DUer who flew some 200+ missions and NEVER got shot down, plus MOST pilots have not been, so his questionable skills are the issue, no?


You *do* know 160 some sailors died in the Forrestal fiasco? He has a couple of vehement defenders here who swear that it wasn't his fault, but he was certainly at the center of the disaster, and a case could be made from his life history of fiascos that he would just be very likely to be at the center of our NEXT national fiasco.

7. Here's the Rolling Stone article on his whole risky, spoiled brat life:

8. Yeah, read that a few days ago....counted three, so

that's what prompted the question....I think there may be more to the story of the aircraft carrier incident than Rolling Stone included....maybe because it's not totally verified what happened? They DO say he was uninterested in helping the victims and then bugged out with the media to go drinking afterwards. Geesh what a prick.

6. As far as the MSM goes,

most of the CNN analysts have been pretty fair with Obama. I've agreed with Toobin since the primaries. He's usually pretty right on the money.
