Chris Christie calls ex-Navy Seal an idiot.

That was the gist of 90% of the headlines we saw a while back when New Jersey governor Chris Christie got into a heated exchange with an unruly, disrespectful Rutgers student at a townhall meeting, who just happened to be an ex-Navy Seal.

Well, the media pounced on that one just like they do every other non-story to paint Republicans in a bad light. Here we see the old, fat, angry Republican spouting more "intolerance" and "hate" towards....(*GASP*), a veteran!

Here is ABC, whom I like to call "Another Bullsh*t Channel", spinning the story the way they always do. Notice they don't play any of the actual exchange, apart for the fat, angry Republican calling him an idiot.

Now here is the actual exchange showing the "untouchable" veteran being disrespectful and constantly interrupting Christie.


Let's get something straight. Just because you are a veteran doesn't mean you have the right to be disrespectful and free from criticism. As a veteran myself, I am happy to see Chris Christie put that hoodlum in his place. I am sick and tired of people thinking veterans are free to do whatever and say whatever they want, free from scrutiny. Veterans deserve respect. They don't deserve to do anything they please. Also, being a veteran doesn't make one an expert on every political matter. Playing the "veteran" card is no different than playing the race card.

True story, Hack. I mean, look at that queer Manning who worked with Assange to get secrets out.

So this fella is a former Navy SEAL? Well, good for him. Did they teach him his manners? If so, they failed.

Nah, this guy is just a douchebag with some military experience. That's it.
