How does one define a coward? Or if we don’t want to judge their character, perhaps their actions, which we would call “cowardly”?
And what is a “chicken hawk”? This was a term used by the media to define politicians who were eager to use military force, but to let others do it. The term was thrown most often at neo-con and globalist, former VP Dick Cheney. Perhaps now the Democrats will have their own.
You have heard that bullies are really cowards, but they use their aggressiveness to cover their inner fears. Bullies always pick soft targets, never ones that might match their own physique or militant character. In school, bullies picked on the class nerds, never the class jocks. If you have ever seen the movie The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, villain Lee Marvin picks mercilessly on the nerdly Jimmy Stewart, who is serving steaks in a crowded saloon … until Marvin scornfully trips him, and John Wayne’s steak finds the floor.
Wayne ordered Marvin to pick up the steak, off the floor, which would be demeaning to the bully. He would not allow Marvin’s sidekick to do it. The room hushed, expecting a shoot-out. After a lengthy stare-down, Stewart, eager to avoid bloodshed, shows true courage by scolding them both, and picks up the steak himself. Marvin and his crew dash out the door and shoot wildly into the air to create confusion, keep people scared of him, and make good their escape.
Tim Walz is a Chicken Hawk: first he parades his military service. And why would a politician do that? Why, to show his courage, a virtue people admire even in an enemy. But now the truth about Walz is emerging, for resigning from his unit when it was going to be deployed to Iraq.
To borrow a phrase from submarine movies: “Damage control — Report!”
The Deep State always has some damage control handy. “Simply say that you resigned in order to run for Congress.”
Yet his own compatriots know better, and are telling about his shameful resignation to the alternative media, and how the entire structure of the unit was compromised by needing to bring in unfamiliar replacements.
Chaplain of National Guard statement on Walz is here.
The next move would be to have the media lackeys to either discredit the sources, or to suppress them.
Next: At a campaign stop for governor some years ago, Walz said that we need more gun control, and that he proudly disowned the NRA. “I have handled weapons in war” he told his audience, and they should not be in the hands of citizens.
“Damage control: Report!”
“Simply say that you merely misspoke. You meant to say, ‘I have handled weapons of war.’ ”
It never occurred to Walz that his own citizens of Minnesota might need them to protect their life and property during the 2020 riots, when he delayed calling out the National Guard.
Oh, and then he spoke of how the riots were “exciting” and were “restoring a sense of optimism coming back.”
And what of Kamala Harris, who set up a bail-bond fund to get them back on the streets as soon as possible?
“Damage control: Suppress!”
But it gets worse: Mother Teresa of Calcutta knew who “the poorest of the poor” were, the A-1 most helpless members of the human family: The pre-born children, firmly fixed into the gunsights of Planned Parenthood, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. The unborn are easier targets than the Class Nerd or Jimmy Stewart, so Walz knows a soft target when he sees one.
Here is how a coward struts his “courage”: Bragging that he defied Rep. Nancy Pelosi’s advice to tone down his baby-killing rhetoric, signing a bill that allows elective abortion up until birth. If you view the video, it looks like Walz is about the burst a blood vessel, as he literally shouts his aggression to his radical audience.
“And my record is so pro-choice, Nancy Pelosi asked me if I could tone it down. I stand with Planned Parenthood, and we won!”
Wow, that took courage, Mr. Walz. You out-lefted Nancy Pelosi!
We are dealing with the demonic in this election. Whatever flaws exist in the alternatives, pale before the reality of this evil, lying, wicked, cowardly, bullying, doubling-down national ticket of death. They enjoy the continued support of big business, the media, academia, mainstream medicine, the anti-human globalists, and the endlessly deep pockets of the federal government.
A note to the remaining sensible Democrats out there: You still have a chance to step out of your self-induced stupor. This is not a matter of Left v. Right, Liberals v. Conservatives, Democrats v. Republicans. We are dealing with people who hate humanity. It is “Us” v. “Them.”
You will not be safe with these people.
None of us will be.
Bob Bird is past chairman of the Alaskan Independence Party and the host of a talk show on KSRM radio, Kenai.
Disparaging a veteran is disgraceful. Bob Bird is an embarrassment to Alaska
There you go again, Frank. Defending stolen valor. What a hill to die on for you Democrats.
Pinocchio back with the anonymous insults. The facts are out there. people can make their own decisions on the issue of stolen valor.
It’s not so much a “make their own decisions” kind of deal.
“Stolen Valor” has been pretty well defined as people falsely claiming military awards or medals they did not earn, service they did not perform, Prisoner of War experiences that never happened, and other tales of military actions that exist only in their minds. In this case it is clear that some of the things Tim Walz has said meet that definition. He hasn’t been in war and he did not retire at the rank he claimed to retire at. He is also on camera nodding along as his supposed military resume was read and he is seen nodding along in agreement about having “served with his battalion in Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan.” he never served in Afghanistan.
disparaging a liar is not.
A trained veteran who won’t fight ……is a COWARD.
Give this tampon freak a fight, JD.
Frank, these comments aren’t disparaging a true veteran, a true veteran would have grabbed his gun and gone with his troops. He is indeed a coward, and a bully.
Frank, those that actually obtained the rank of Command Sergeant Major, and served with Walz, in the Minnesota National Guard have called him out.
You should probably get off your high horse. Walz let everyone around him down, especially those he was in charge of.
Oh God “ Frank”.
Stop embarrassing yourself.
Facts, He DID NOT DEPLOY but chose to retire with a reduced rank (he retired as a MSG or Master Sergeant) because #1. He did not complete the Sgt Major Academy (correspondence not in person) and failed to serve the term required AFTER he dropped out of the Sgt Major Academy. He was given an administrative demotion (Article 15 perhaps) on the way out the door.
He is a retired E-8 not E-9 like his bio says and KNEW full well his unit was slated to deploy to Afghanistan. As a SGM, or any Top 3 enlisted member really, he would have been notified and been part of the work up for deploying personnel. He is a coward flat out.
Frank Frank. Tampon Tim is a lying pro terrorist thief it appears.
Oh Frank, you missed the point. Perhaps the man served honorably, but then he lied about it to embellish his record. It is not the service but the lie which is despicable. But I guess that’s a nuance you really don’t see, isn’t it?
Is Walz a pedophile? His actions and his looks seem to define it. Joe Biden had it too. Democrat behavior knows no bounds.
Back to the old teacher is a pedo trope, huh? You, Sam, appear to be jealous of their successes, because you haven’t any of your own.
A military man who won’t fight got the firing squad.
He did 24 years, you should be thanking him for his service.
Oy ve.
I wondered what sort of talking points would emerge in urban AK considering the sort of history of military involvement underpins the ‘Last Frontier’. My parents did their military service and did not reenlist. Even as an Army sergeant in the Korean Action, and his Army National Guard unit which he joined right out high school, and sent him up the Alcan on Operation Totem Pole, and others were deployed to Korea. No one in their right mind would call my Pa a coward. He did his duty. He attended UAF on the GI Bill and was a school teacher twenty years. No one has any right to say my mother is a coward. She served after she taught school and returned to the classroom after her service attending UAF on the GI Bill.
I wonder how many folks think about the fact that one of the folks they’ve got their panties in a wad about retired at rank higher than the corporal eating sour grapes. At least we assume the Marine was discharged honorably with his laptop intact, but what an attitude.
He is lying about his military service Mrs N. Most combat veterans frown on that. It also appears he has financially supported Hamas. Do your own homework before you shoot your mouth off. Kamala is just a useful ideot in this game being played.
Did your parents lie about their service later to serve themselves? I didn’t think so. It isn’t the service, it is the lie.
Funny how when the right points out legitimate issues with a vet, it’s vile.
But when it was Bush 43, Dan Sullivan, Ryan McKenzie, Oliver North, Sean Parnell (Pa), the dead soldiers Biden didn’t want to wait on and so many more… political fair game.
Sean Parnell never served in the military.
How does one define a coward? Well, one good example is someone who falsely and repeatedly claims he has bone spurs, and therefore is ineligible for the draft and service in Vietnam. I’d say that tops someone who’s served honorably for 24 years and who rose through the ranks to a high military rank.
Honestly, I’m surprised that any Conservative would try this stunt on Walz, considering how exposed Trump is on the same subject. Another amateur move that will certainly widen the gap in the polls even further. You’re going to lose, Donald. You’re going to lose.
Please define “high military rank.” He was promoted assuming he would do the work and then serve. He did neither, but he did lie about it later to make himself look like more than he is. I don’t recall Trump lying about any of his situation. But I guess it’s okay to lie if you also want to kill babies and let people riot in the streets, eh?
He did his 20, thank him for his service and move on. Bob Bird can go pound sand
I disagree, he did his time then was DEMOTED to the rank of Master Sgt before his retirement, If he wanted to put this to sleep he could release his DD-214 with redacted SS number and call it good but he wont
Frank, Telling the truth about a veterans service record is NOT disparging!! Avoiding combat after enjoying the “ good times” in the national Gaurd for 24 years when you are in a position of unquestionable leadership is highly suspect !! Bob Bird please explain to us your history of military service or avoidance thereof?
Yet all you Trump supoorters follow a draft dodging mentally incapable NY Billionaire. Save me the honor talk….
And as far as one can tell from his online bio, Mr. Bob Bird, despite being of the appropriate age cohort, never joined the military so he could serve in Vietnam. So you, sir, have no right to insinuate that Walz is a coward. Where were you? Apparently studying “Social Studies” in Minnesota. Thank you for your service.
He said he carried his rifle in COMBAT. He didn’t. He lied. It was an honor to serve with his unit in a Combat Zone, he resigned instead. Took the money and ran home. If he talks like a coward, and acts like a coward, he probably is.
