  1. re: debate over word "heroes." friend just posted on FB a photo of CAP Tom Bostick watching dvd of the nbc show HEROES on a laptop in 2007.
  2. @tbearfromhell really not sure why you're lashing out at me; i said troops + loved ones were offended by the comments.
  3. @GildaMundson @ggreenwald not necessarily, no.
  4. @YOMJ why would you attribute his thoughts to anyone other than him?
  5. VIDEO - our @ABCWorldNews story on wounded troops training service dogs for their fellow wounded veterans > abcn.ws/LZyeQ6
  6. @SHannitysHair right, that was my point
  7. @jinni44 start here --- > warriorcanineconnection.org/Home_Page.html good luck!
  8. @GildaMundson @ggreenwald the people ive heard from (on facebook) lost friends and sons. they dont appreciate what they see as disrespect
  9. @RA_SMITH2 but the converse is also true -- heated disagreement is not evidence that something important was said.
  10. @LitThom provocative essay. and i think we're seeing some of that chasm between civilians and the military here as well.
  11. @RA_SMITH2 you're suggesting a full honest discussion results only in unanimous agreement.
  12. @RA_SMITH2 some feel that the act of volunteering to go to war, and put one's self in harm's way, and being killed as a result, IS heroic.
  13. @RA_SMITH2 what "balance" are you crying for? he made his point. on TV. people disagree and some were offended.
  14. @RA_SMITH2 afraid i dont understand your tweet
  15. @ExurbanKevin you know that you couldnt be more wrong about greenwald, right? five seconds on the Google, man.
  16. @bmaz @digby56 @radleybalko @chrislhayes my only point is that not all the outrage was bogus and ginned up. People were hurt. tapper out
  17. Tonight on @ABCWorldNews -- a story about how training service dogs for fellow veterans is helping wounded troops with their own struggles.
  18. @ggreenwald im not disputing that, im disputing the notion that the offense was faux.
  19. @nklopfen im not and i do.
  20. @ggreenwald am judging only by those who have lost loved ones in war, writing on Facebook -- it caused pain.
