Herman Cain served the Navy during Vietnam, but Lawrence O'Donnell is offended.

Herman Cain served the Navy during Vietnam, but that doesn't stop Lawrence O'Donnell from being offended "on behalf of all veterans" (something tells me, he doesn't speak for them).

By the way, Lawrence O'Donnell's Vietnam service? Deferment.

Fireworks: MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell's Hostile Interview With Herman Cain

Who the fuck is O'Donnell to call someone out for draft-dodging? O'Donnell didn't do shit.

Did Lawrence O'Donnell serve in the Vietnam war? Did he serve in the military? Herman Cain should have asked him what he did. "How dare you be offended on behalf of Vietnam Veterans if you...." This reporter clearly is not unbiased.

@realhxq Nither served but I'm sure O'D was fishing for a" Chicken hawk " statement or a false hood from what I can make of it seeing how Cain has made some rather harsh disciminatory statements about muslims , regardless this is a mere riple atop a sunami wave that he's dealing with now ,with another second one to possibly come .As for being hypocritical in a sense yes , but O'Donnell isn't running for prez either and as I pointed out a valid question, politics is a microscope like it or not !

[realhxq]

@kamphwagon1 but how come no one points out that O'Donnell was also a draft dodger ? is that not hypocrisy ?

[kamphwagon1]

@realhxq Just as much of a point as Bachman being offended at Perrys exective order mandateing young girls being vacinated against STDs in Texas... Oh I see it's allright for the RW to use the '' ofended '' band wagon pemise for political gain but not the LW... But better yet you seem to have missed whom was asking questions and who was answering ,theres lots of folks whom are offended over draft dodgers and it's a valid question for journalists as I see it....

[realhxq]

@kamphwagon1 you missed my point , How can O,Donnell be Offended?

[kamphwagon1]

@realhxq Wrong ! nither one has a military career that I know of Cain's so called Navy service was a civil service position obtained most likely trough afirmitive action, giveing him a draft deferment......

Liberals are the major source of racism in America. Nothing scares the left more than conservative black Americans who believe in God, are well-educated, work hard, love America, and refuse to identify themselves as victims. They are living refutation of all of the tenets of leftsm, and the left will stop at nothing to demonize them. They might not use rope, but their operatives in the media will nonetheless do everything they can to lynch their histories, character, faith, and motives.
