How far below the belt can you hit?

Quote:
Peter Roskam, the GOP candidate to succeed outgoing Rep. Henry Hyde, accused Dem opponent Tammy Duckworth of wanting to "cut and run" from Iraq during a debate a couple days ago. The use of this common pro-war talking-point in this case surprised some observers—not to mention Duckworth herself—because the veteran Duckworth lost both of her legs in Iraq. Duckworth's post-debate reply was rather straightforward: "I just could not believe he would say that to me.""
Of course chickenhawk Roskam has no record of military service.

He's just another Repugnican trying to trash someone who actually has seen combat. Duckworth has more courage in her little finger that this douchebag has in his whole body.

It seems like a dumb comment. However I don't know anything about either of them. What is her position on Iraq?

She should give him a swift kick in arse! Really though, it was a stupid choice of words by him. If she's advocating an abrupt withdrawl, it's a fair criticism. But I have no idea about either candidate to make that call.

Her position on Iraq is that she lost two legs over there.

That is not a position, it is an event (a sad one).

Agreed. To assume anyone that was injured wants us out would be a mistake. To assume anyone that was injured wished they weren't is probably pretty safe.
