I generally have a lot of respect and appreciation for those who serve in the military, but even if these weren't our guys we shouldn't need to be reminded of the few of ours who embarrass the U.S. military, e.g. Tailhook scandal, cheating @ military academies, forcing fundamentalist Christianity on recruits, etc. Politically, just look what happened to Navy top gun Duke Cunningham (now in prison). To an admittedly lesser degree, our Ohio GOP Ohio Senate candidate, ex-Marine Josh Mandel, is simply a serial liar and unprincipled punk, who once called a rival a Muslim (he wasn't) to win a position Mandel wasn't qualified for. Pretty slimy -especially for an Iraq veteran - to falsely imply an innocent American citizen trying to do his civic duty is a terrorist, when brave souls are overseas fighting real ones.
