Kelly is a racist

I just listened to Representative Wilson’s speech in its entirety. That speech was well written and delivered. It was patriotic, bipartisan, and respectful of law enforcement (something you think that a republican would love). For someone to listen to that speech and walk away with a negative thought about the speaker tells me they have some type of prejudice or hatred for that speaker.

to come away offended by Congresswoman Wilson's speech. It was a lovely speech. Gen. Kelly revealed the ugly that resides deep within him.

That's all it took. This kind of shit guy was in charge of some big marine deal? A shit the pants guy that can't stand a little heat? No wonder the US military is so completely fucked up.

10. Kelly was the empty barrel, and sadly based on what he said yesterday, has an empty soul, too.

to follow up on the Rep. Wilson video which exposed Kelly's lies. I was eagerly awaiting more of Larry's blistering commentary.

you know, like never in our history. Then he dishonors a woman by telling an outright lie. He really is a dishonorable man. We're in big trouble.
