Friendly fire

Well this is odd. Here’s an endorsement of George ‘Macaca’ Allen’s opponent Jim Webb on Fox News, from the standpoint of who’s more bloodthirsty. ‘I want a guy who’s got blood on his hands, not a football player.’ (via Crooks and Liars)

Interviewer: … Jim Webb has a son, the only one of all these nasty Republicans saying, ‘Oh, these cut ‘n run Democrats,’ not one of them have a son in that war. He does…

Col. David Hunt, military analyst: Jim Webb’s not just got a silver star, he’s got the Navy Cross. That’s the second-highest medal… He’s a Marine combat hero… And his son’s in Ramadi. So for me, the war on terror, I want guys who’ve actually fought. I don’t care what side of the party you’re on… If you’ve got a guy who’s been a killer like Jim Webb, I want a guy who’s been in combat. He’s a good man. I want a guy who’s got blood on his hands, not a football player… He’s a hero… We should be Americans first… And we need the best people for the war on terror.

Hunt sounds like Joe Pesci. ‘Am I right? Am I right?’
