Oh. My. God.

...
Re-posted, in full, from TPM Café without comment:

Peter Roskam, the GOP [IL – O6]candidate to succeed outgoing Rep. Henry Hyde, accused Dem opponent Tammy Duckworth of wanting to "cut and run" from Iraq during a debate a couple days ago. The use of this common pro-war talking-point in this case surprised some observers—not to mention Duckworth herself—because the veteran Duckworth lost both of her legs in Iraq. Duckworth's post-debate reply was rather straightforward: "I just could not believe he would say that to me."

OK, one comment: what an asshole Roskam is.

Wait, another comment: Keep in mind that when you vote Republican you perpetuate this crap. The modern Republican party needs to be torn down and rebuild from the ground up after extensive de-Nazification and de-McCarthization, not to mention de-assholification. And we should ask the Wizard to provide them all with hearts.

OK, I’m done not commenting.

www.roskamforcongress.com doesn't even have a stand on the war.

www.tammyduckworth.com is all you need to see

Peter Roskam's personal position on Iraq is the unique "we need to finish strong". Not sure what that means, maybe shoot everything up on our way out?

Why not write him a nice little note at his website telling him what you think about him? He needs encouragement to STFU. There's very few instances other than giving money that people outside a district can help. This is one of them. If he gets enough outraged emails it just might
tamp down his enthusiasm for being a grade A creep. And we all know when you take that away from a Repub it sucks the life right out of them.

God bless the U.S.A., and the true patriots who defend her like Tammy Duckworth!
