Kenneth J. Theisen is an organizer with the “World Can't Wait! Drive Out the Bush Regime!”, he explains why he doesn't support the troops -- [Berkeley Daily Planet]
It's not like we haven't heard this before.
The web is full of them
The "support-the-troops-but-oppose-what-they're-doing" position just doesn't cut it, since supporting one requires support of the other. But it doesn't stop them saying they support the troops, while in the same breath, scream the troops are murderous rapists who terrorize women and children.
At least these guys are finally admitting they don't support the troops, while calling our men and women of the Armed Forces, war criminals.
"The Sniper" and "This ain’t Hell, but you can see it from here" are live blogging The Winter Soldier II hearings.
IVAW are streaming the conference.

Good times already here! We started the day with a Rodney King reenactment. Well, not really.
So I walk up, and all the Viet Nam vets smile and welcome me as I show my military ID. Walk further up, all smiles, fluffy bunnies, unicorns frollicking etc. Get to the last gate and they ask me "Your name?" Lots of teeth, all smiles.
"TSO, you guys heart me." (Or something to that effect.)
"Who are you with?"
"Vets for Freedom." Me smiling, until I notice that the situation has changed. A lot. A real lot.
...I'm escorted everywhere I go. Some people sneer...John Lilyea is here with me. We are sitting in the back, with our security guards
One of the panelists (TSO knows his name- I’ll insert it later) claimed that he couldn’t get treatment because Walter Reed only treats combat casualties. That’s complete horseshit - I had my gall bladder removed there just a few years ago - I had a private recovery room. They treated me for pneumonia just a few weeks with the usual long wait - but the guy claimed he was on active duty and they wouldn’t treat his injury (shoulder injury playing football in his stateside unit) because it wasn’t combat related. Please
Recently discovered US Army documents profoundly undermines the VVAW’s original atrocity claims.
Scott Swett with FrontPageMagazine.com has more and questions Los Angeles Times reporting.
Of 76 Army witnesses who appeared at the group’s 1971 “Winter Soldier” conference, summary reports of the Army’s Criminal Investigation Division (CID) investigations are available for 48. Three witnesses were not identified. The rest failed to allege criminal acts and were apparently not interviewed.
HotAir correspondent Jason Mattera confronts John Kerry about his Winter Soldier testimony
The Marching Camp asks "Whence comes the money?"
IVAW offers to cover funding for veterans to fly to Colorado for the new "Winter Soldier" hearings. Not chump change, really. There's money floating around here somewhere.
Let's play Connect The Dots.
