Markos Moulitsas, DainBramaged HERO of the MONTH award

[DainBramaged]

for making CHICKENHAWK Tom Tancredo's fucking head explode tonight on the Big Ed show when he said HE was a veteran and didn't get a deferment for depression like Tommy Boy Tancredo did causing Tommy Boy to stalk off.




Way to go Kos............

[abq e streeter]

23. MOMMY ! A mean liberal told the truth about me

[OnceUponTimeOnTheNet]

24. Thank You Thank You! Off to load it.

Edit to add. That was Great! Now I need a

[NNN0LHI]

2. I always like Kos

[mdmc]

6. me too

[alsame]

4. Kos did it exactly right - these right wing bullies have to be

challenged and called out. And see what happens?....they run away.

[Stinky The Clown]

7. Absotively Posilutely priceless.

[DainBramaged]

12. That was the BEST of the year you can't give S&H green stamps with that

[Joe Fields]

34. OMG, an S&H Green Stamp reference. Priceless!!!

I saw the show and it WAS a "pump your fist in the air and shout hell yes" moment.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

8. He actually abandoned the microphone and walked off?

I wish I could have seen that. It seems to be a Republican tradition.

David Dreir walked off the Bill Maher show.

O'Reilly walked off Terri Gross' radio show Fresh Air.

Joe Scarborough walked off while on with Rachel Maddow.

Bob Novak walked off the show with Wolf Blitzer while using foul language.

I'm sure there are more examples.

[SpiralHawk]

17. George AWOL Bush walked away from his National Guard Unit

Rush Limbaugh used his ass pimple to walk away from an opportunity to serve America.

And on and on and on with the rpeublicon chickenhawkery.

[Hekate]

25. New Hampshire Gazette put together an extensive list of Chickenhawks over 5 years ago

http://www.nhgazette.com /

They're putting together an update in time for Veterans Day.



Republicans: "Born to kill. Not serve."

[DireStrike]

9. On the one hand, FUCK YEAH!

On the other hand, we probably don't want a lot of troops that really do have serious depression. Assholes like Tancredo fuck it up for everyone. (I'm just assuming he doesn't have serious depression because he's an asshole and it fits the chickenhawk MO, not to pull a Frist.)

[SpiralHawk]

10. Republicon chickenhawks are soo tedious and pathetic

...and so many in number.

What is it with Republicons and chickenhawkery?

It's so freaking shamefully hypocritical, much like their Wide-Stance, Diaper-clad claims of superior 'Family Values'

Just a revolting level of hypocrisy for the whole party.

[winstars]

11. That was very very beautiful

He is a vet??? Do we not all know that because our side does not scream out our service or religion at the top of our lungs??? Maybe I am the only one who did not know that Markos is a veteran but it is interesting that OUR GUYS are so cool that it only sort of slips out of them... We ARE on the correct side of things!!!

[Hekate]

13. Tancredo's BS was making my brain hurt so I turned the sound off. I DID see him stalk off set,tho...

... and rejoiced that Markos had gotten under his skin that badly. Thank you for letting me know what happened! That is truly priceless.

I caught part of Schuster's editorial about the Dachau sign, enough to know it was righteous.

Hekate

[DainBramaged]

16. Right above us this thread

[Hekate]

22. Thanks, you beat me to my edit. I went and watched -- wow. Just wow. Now if only...

... someone posts Schuster's editorial comments about the Dachau sign so I could see the whole of it...

Hekate

[bobbolink]

21. Poor Tom is used to having people DEFER to *him*.

I'm sure it was a shock to his whole system.

Poor widdle fing....

[petersond]

26. It was a great

piece of video, saw it first hand, couldn't belive it myself, I had to pinch myself.

[Donnachaidh]

27. loved it loved it loved it!

Thanks for the vid link - my kid wants to see this LOL!

[havocmom]

28. tough talking GOP hyprocrite outed as chicken by sweet faced veteran

LOVE it!

Markos looked like he rather enjoyed that easy kill too. Yep, Hero Of The Month, Media Division at least

[11 Bravo]

29. It was a beautiful thing!

[kestrel91316]

30. Kos can't be old enough to be a veteran, lol. He looks and sounds 16.

[DainBramaged]

31. Tommy Boy is so seeped in his own shit he has NO idea he'll run into one of the

smartest people on the Left, and a VET on top of that. My bet is he never shows up on MSNBC again with this incident going viral........

[krispos42]

33. Three years in the Army.

He's almost 40.

[kestrel91316]

45. Holy cow! lol

[eridani]

35. As I get older, I notice that the cops and doctors and nurses etc

---all seem to be children, for heaven's sakes!

[kestrel91316]

46. Buncha damned Doogie Howsers, all of them.

[krispos42]

32. I enjoyed Al Franken's fictional stories about draft-dodging Repubs.

There are two of them, I think, which have chickenhawls such as Limbaugh, Bush, Cheney, and (I think) Liddy in Vietnam with REAL war heroes such as Kerry.

Perhaps Al needs to expand his cast a little and include a "new recruit"...

[DainBramaged]

36. Markos is simply a hero and I am proud he is on OUR side.

[Cleita]

37. Too bad we can't send him a little trophy or plaque from DU. n/t

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

40. DainBramaged perhaps should design a cyber plaque to send his monthly heroes by e-mail

It would be a nice way to show solidarity with liberals outside of DU.

[DainBramaged]

42. I have actually been thinking of this, and for the heels too

but it isn't fair to DU to incorporate them into the award. I have to really think about how it could be done. I really don't know if I'm ready to do a blog yet so it's just fun doing it for us.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

43. Maybe a Limbaugh Chickenhawk Anal Cyst award to the heels, too

or something of that type.

[HughMoran]

38. That was a very good moment for him

He's not always as firm as I'd like him to be, but he didn't back down one inch to that teabagging moran.

kudos to Markos!

[Overseas]

39. K&R! //nt

[malaise]

41. And he was laughing his head off

It was freaking priceless - so glad I saw it live.

[bridgit]

44. Tancredo looked like a cockroach scurrying off when the kitchen light snaps on

Kudos Kos!
