of the war? Thanks for pointing that out..I hadn't even considered the dates when I posted it.

It appears he's been saying things for a couple years now that don't add up. I wonder if there is any way it can be determined if he was ever in the military at all.



He was also supposed to have received a back injury over there.

Jesse MacBeth told another story.

MacBeth, a 20-year-old U.S. soldier who recently returned from Iraq after sustaining a back injury, said Coffee Plantation banned him from the store in March for the way he was dressed -- in his training uniform.

He had been sipping coffee calmly when a store employee asked him to leave. He refused.

Management insisted that he leave even after he took out his military ID card. Security guards escorted him off the premises under threat of arrest if he returned.

He said he hoped the protest would disrupt the flow of customers into the store.
