Re: This mofo needs to...
[QUOTE=parthiapride]DIE.
That’s extreme, but but the guy seems to lack integrity (to put mildly.)
I did find this story humorous and disturbing:
Kaloogian posted a picture he claims ‘they’ took of the ‘calm streets of Baghdad’ on a ‘recent’ trip to Iraq…
This caption accompanied the photo:
“We took this photo of dowtown Baghdad while we were in Iraq. Iraq (including Baghdad) is much more calm and stable than what many people believe it to be. But, each day the news media finds any violence occurring in the country and screams and shouts about it - in part because many journalists are opposed to the U.S. effort to fight terrorism.”
Someone noticed that the picture posted was not, in fact, Baghdad streets, but a part of Istanbul, Turkey!
Ah, ya know, Turkey? Iraq? Close enough right? (he must think). Then, when he was called on this, he issued an ‘apology’ letter where he then blames the military for his need to post lies, claiming that he couldn’t put actual Iraq locations, lest they become ‘targets.’ In the same paragraph where he is saying he’s sorry, he kindly asks for donations to his campaign… LOL

"The candidate said he hadn't recognized the error because "the military asked us to use our discretion and put things on the Internet that were nondescriptive ... (because) if we posted something that was easily identifiable, it could be a target."

“Kaloogian: I'm Sorry, Photo Was a Mistake”

Kaloogian: "You're being really picky on this stuff...It's not that big a deal. It was a mistake. I'm sorry." [emp added]

Re: This mofo needs to...
This guy posted a picture of Turkey 'in peace' in order to prove that there is relative peace in Iraq? I read, 'we don't want a vietnam, here. All is fine. All is fine. All is fine. Let me show you a picture so that I can 'prove' with 1000 words that all is fine.') If my concern is 'picky,' so be that.
First let me say that I am, have always been, against this war with US and Iraq. Always. I spoke about this before most people even knew Bush was thinking about the ‘reasons.’ Bunch of crap (*meaning Bush admin proceedings... Sadam is horrible, too) …. Anyway… See, my problem with this CO guy (as an illustration of subvert dishonesty) is that someone knew damn well what picture they posted. Whomever ‘made a bad call’ in terms of the posting of this photo (that supports war and trivializes those with legitimate qualms with war policy) That someone (working to get him elected) also knew damn well what they said with the caption.
Clinton lied (or was less than truthful). He skirted issues without ‘actually’ saying a lie. When Clinton lied, no one died, as a result. (cliché’?) I’m certainly not holding up Bill Clinton as someone to morally emulate (though parts of his philosophy I TOTALLY support), but if needed, I’d hold him up before Bush Jr. ANYDAY. AND, he CERTAINLY made intentional points about political language (even if he had to in 'code.')
"Well that depends on what the meaning of IT IS." --Clinton
He was making a point for the future, not defending himself. I'll bite my tongue now about him until/unless someone says they want to hear my point of views on this topic.
