WINGNUTS ON THE ATTACK

I mentioned before that the wingnuts are upset about a series of posts by a soldier in Irsq that appeared in the New Republic. The soldier has now revealed his name and the wingers are tracking down every teeny bit of info they can find on the guy. This of course is irrelevant to the question of whether or not his posts are true.

BC at AMERICAblog catches a couple of the more prominent war whore bloggers disparaging Mr. Beauchamp simply because his posts contradict their political views:

Here's Ms. Malkin, at her best.

Scott Johnson at Powerline doesn’t mince words in his assessment of Beauchamp: “Pretentious ass.” I’d add, in the parlance of p.c. pop psychology: A pretentious ass with issues. Major issues.

So there you have it. Michelle Malkin supports our troops. Unless they are liberal and disagree with her views on the war. Then they become a "pretentious ass with issues." Has there ever been a group of people more intellectually dishonest than this group of conservative pundits?

I went to BlackFive to see how a milblog is covering this and Uncle Jimbo had this to say about Mr. Beauchamp:

Private Beauchamp- Requiem for a dung beetle
As I said every unit has a Private Beauchamp who is more or less universally disliked as a whiny loser.

I'll be honest I would pay good money to knock that freakin' smirk off his
face.

Your character, or more accurately, your complete lack of it has already been
noted and your experiences, being mostly fiction matter little.

You are a disgrace Beauchamp, a wannabe intellectual lacking the brainpower
to do much more than embarrass yourself in public.

This diatribe is before anyone has shown Beauchamp's posts to be false.
