Content aside, both Hillsdale and Tom Cotton can get lost.

Content aside, both Hillsdale and Tom Cotton can get lost. Kind of odd to rip on an Army Ranger who's been deployed in harm's way. I get that you disagree with his politics, but yeesh... not everything has to be an absolute Red versus Blue all the time.

Gimme Tom Cotton over Nancy Pelosi or Crying Chuck Shumer any day of the week. You can have him. May be one of the dumbest people in the senate and that is saying something.

Once you’re a politician, you’re judged as a politician, not your prior military service. (Incidentally it’s funny that the pearl clutching about criticism of Congress people who previously served- like Cotton or that chooch Crenshaw from Texas, never extends to Tammy Duckworth, because she’s a female Democratic POC, but I digress).
We should absolutely be able to honor our nations fallen regardless of politics, but it’s impossible to separate from politics in many regards. And a guy like Cotton is actively pushing for yet another pointless war in the Middle East, which would obviously lead to us having a whole lot more people to honor on Memorial Day, and ceremonies at Arlington, so he can take a deep-knee bend.

Nothing redeeming about Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer. Two slime balls that are the epitome of what is wrong with government.

In this case, correlation is causation.

The bad goes with the good. I'm sorry, but you can't separate them. What is the "bad" in this case? Are you saying we can NEVER separate the good from the bad in people, and who is the arbiter of "good" and "bad"?

The name of the soldier whose gravestone the bald eagle was resting upon when photographed was Maurice Ruch.
Photo of eagle on Fort Snelling gravestone touches hearts, goes viral.
