You mean nothing said BY Beauchamp has held water, right? I mean, this site did say that his story was suspect. . .then he admitted part of it occurred in a different place and time then he said it did. That’s holding water.

Now the military has found nothing to corroborate his claims. . .that’s holding water (although it seems like you’d be quicker to believe an admitted liar than our troops on the ground in this case).

Now there’s this supposed recantation. If it’s true, that’s holding water.

Now, there are some things on this site that DON’T hold any water. They leak it like a sieve, obviously, and continuously. Those would be your comments on the matter lgm. Look no further.

“People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it’s true, or because they are afraid it might be true.”

Micheal Moore uses this well with his movies.

Regulus:Concur. Beauchamp may be a shameful character, but I doubt he has any sense of shame. Check of proof: if he were capable of feeling shame, he wouldn’t have penned those maliciously dishonest accounts in TNR.

Exactly.

If someone writes something Malkin doesn’t like, just have a huff and puff little tantrum and make it feel better. Never mind that nothing said against him on this site has held water. Just move on to the next equally bogus point.

Well, besides the fact that no one in his chain of command can coroborate his tales?

Dude, the burn victim thing now took place 9 months earlier, and hundreds of miles away. Before he got to Iraq.

He didn’t make a tiny error. He didn’t see here “Every day while in Iraq”.

Seriously, you were just DESPERATE for his stories to be true, weren’t you?

Does anyone doubt that if Pvt. Beauchamp were a pro-war writer, gaining article space in a nationwide publication…

Sorry to burst your bubble but it stops right there, unfortunately. There won’t be much space for a pro-war writer in the MSM in the foreseeable future. Especially a grunt.

And for that matter – does anyone doubt that the MSM would be hounding every possible source to verify each bit of his pro-military stance?
