Everybody's been piling on John Effin',

and I'd like to join in

Over at Michelle Malkin, found this post on past remarks he made, which touches both on what he thought of the military then, and how it relates to his idiot remarks now.

During a Vietnam-era run for Congress three decades ago, John Kerry said he opposed a volunteer Army because it would be dominated by the underprivileged, be less accountable and be more prone to "the perpetuation of war crimes." Bunch of dummies who couldn't get a 'real' job, and have no self-control? Check.

"I am convinced a volunteer army would be an army of the poor and the black and the brown," Kerry wrote. "We must not repeat the travesty of the inequities present during Vietnam. I also fear having a professional army that views the perpetuation of war crimes as simply 'doing its job.' Only stupid minorities would join? Bunch of moral cretins who have no problem with 'war crimes'? Check.

But we're supposed to ignore everything else he's said and believe him when he says NOW that he 'supports and respects the troops'.

And flying monkeys just flew out the back of my pants.
