Obama team on defense over Rice’s Bergdahl ‘honor’ comments

[Freewill]

Now just serving is an honorable thing, but what did he do that made his service receive the comment "served with distinction?" In another thread liberals are bitchin about some tweets that were deleted after they realize that once again the Obama administration lied to them. And once again, it is good he is back, but at what cost?

Rice made the comments Sunday to ABC's "This Week," when asked whether the newly freed soldier was a deserter. "He served the United States with honor and distinction," she said. "And we'll have the opportunity eventually to learn what has transpired in the past years."

I hate this administration. Why can't they just say she made a mistake and misspoke? Their first and only instinct is to lie. And watch the liberals on this board agree with their excuse.

To dimocrap scum, the Taliban aren't the enemy, critics of the Lying Cocksucker in Chief are.

Now the lying scum on the left are saying that Bergdahl's Platoon mates are the ones that are lying, calling them psychopaths....

We do not rely on first-hand reports. We do not rely on anything so piffling and small and dangerous as honesty.

We rely, simply, on PR. We believe the TV images of the bogus "rescue" at the expense of common sense because we are a nation drunk on the idea that the U.S. can do no wrong and TV would never lie.

And goddammit if Hannity and Rush and O'Reilly say it happened like that, it must be true, and damn you America-hating libs for daring to question the integrity of our armed forces when they are out there right now protecting us from, uh, what was it again? Higher gas prices? Israel's scorn? Dick Cheney's pallid sneer? Something like that.

Look, there is no war without spin. There is no war without outright lying to the populace, without trying to coerce a wary nation into supporting our unprovoked savagery by way of Hollywood-style set pieces performed specifically to deflect attention from the brutality and the decapitated children and the still-dying U.S. soldiers and the burning bodies by the side of the road.

This is nothing shocking. This is nothing even remotely unusual or uncommon. The fabric of war consists not of gallant battles fought by hardy soldiers for some noble collective good yay yay go team, but of manufactured tales of valiant brotherhood and purebred heroism designed to make the vile pill slightly less bitter.

War is, of course, vicious and primitive and disgustingly violent and not the slightest bit gallant, and America has rarely been more thuggish in its short history than when we annihilated Afghanistan and Iraq lo these past few years, the world's greatest bloated superpower hammering down on two nearly defenseless, piss-poor nations in the name of, well, petrochemical rights and strategic political positioning. It's not a war, it's a gang beating. Uncle Sam wants you.

And, hence, we need the sugar. We desperately need the sweet, teary-eyed images of flags and salutes and stunning "rescues" to make it all go down smoothly, to suppress the collective recoil, the national gag reflex. After all, who wants to see burning babies and crying mothers and hot screaming death on prime time? Show me Old Glory waving in slo-mo! Ahh, that's better.
