John Gibson is a blow-dried girly-man…
Published by Mike Stark April 27th, 2007 in UncategorizedHe talks tough, but he’s chickenshit - and a chicken hawk.
He was berating anti-war folks for cheering on the new Democratic legislation that reflects the will (by a 2 to 1 margin) of the American people. Michael Ware, one of the best reporters in Iraq, recently said that if we leave Iraq, we leave it to Al Qaeda and Iran… At the same time, he’s consistently said that what we are doing isn’t even close to working. The surge is a joke.
So… Gibson was playing Ware’s most recent comments for all they were worth, but not recognizing that those comments aren’t inconsistent with Ware’s earlier comments. In other words, everything Ware has said - that we are losing the war and that if we leave, we’ll leave Iraq in bad shape - can be true at the same time. If that’s the case, the only solution is dumping 5-600,000 troops into the country and developing some kind of expensive Iraqi Marshall Plan… This approach would necessitate a draft.
So I called to tell him he’s a chickenhawk and he even lacks the courage to call for what it takes to win the war. Then things got fun… listen…

Why is everyone who opposes the piece of shit war a “hippie”? I like how he gets to call you names and then doesn’t let you respond. Keep it up Mike!
Nice one Mike!
As I recall, you are from Albany, not Berkeley.
Gibson got owned!
I personally hate soy milk.
I’ve listened to this twice now. How exactly did you own him?? You got a couple shots in and he got a couple shots in. Don’t waste my time linking over from Kos if you can’t deliver on your promises.
Wow, this really makes him look like a jerk. The Cheney fans will love it, but anyone who was just curiously tuning him in can’t help but be embarrased for him.
wait…a draft means we dont have a professional army?
please dont tell that to the men who served in ww2, korea and nam
the wingnuts know that a draft would end this war, because all the kids who are now on the sidelines cheering it on, are all yellow bastards who will join in the protests the second the draft is reinstituted
but no matter what, either a draft or national service, or both, need to be instituted in this country
we need to instill in everyone a feeling of responsiblity to the country…it is time
That was very very good and John Gibson is a despicable perosn.
I really do wonder how they sleep at night.
Thanks
Wow! That “Professional Military” is really doing a bang up job in Iraq - and Afghanistan! But maybe professionalism has nothing to do with - maybe just having all those traitorous chickenhawks in the Bushevik Administration is the major problem — John Gibson, a gutless, spineless candy ass who never served - par for the course…..
“I bet the Marines are proud of you, buddy.”
Gibson says this as though Marines are more proud of him for never wearing the globe and anchor. I doubt this guy has ever been in a fist fight in his life, so talking tough without a resume to back it up is gutless nonsense.
I’m curious as to why the talk radio hacks haven’t gone after Pat Tillman’s mother and Kevin Tillman? I thought for sure the O’Reilly types would give them the Cindy Sheehan treatment.
Nice call. Too bad the coward cut you off.
Gibson is an asshat.
Ray- First of all he pointed out that Gibson was only telling half the truth about Ware’s opinion. Secondly, he caused Gibson to show himself as the complete buffoon that he is. “Hippie”, “Berkeley”, “soy milk”. Wow. so original, huh?
Soy milk makes me sick. I’m soy intolerant.
Chickenhawk, pikcok (imagine rooster sound), you can just suck my cock. Figuritively.
I just found your site. And thank you, from a military family. Yes a draft would end the war overnight-a war that should have never begun.
The doofus you called fails to recognize the “professional fighting force” is 52% PT Guard and reserve soldiers.
I love how chickenhawks claim to speak for the military, yet I talk to more military than they ever will!
