A Comment Left About Me At Glenn Greenwald’s Blog
Mark Coffey, Coward and Traitor.
The entire responsibility for the debacle in Iraq can be laid at the little turned-in feet of Mark Coffey, who knew what needed to be done, how long it would take, how to do it, and what victory would look like, and did nothing.
Thanks for nothing Mark. You betrayed your country, your God, and your best girl. And as far as what your Mom must think, well better the curtain of discretion should be drawn over that grand lady’s suffering. I can hear her now “and I brought my boy up to be a soldier”
She’ll die of shame Mark. How can you stand it?
(you can read the original here)…
Pretty intelligent stuff, eh?…and Mom, if you read this, I’m so sorry I let you down…
UPDATE 11:33 p.m.: Another one from the same genius:
Mark Coffey and Defeat
The only reason the Brits are leaving and things are going badly for America is because Mark Coffey is not there, doing what he knows needs to be done. Only he can stand up when the Iraquis stand down, or pull their pants up or down, or something.
Mark, you have run out on your country and contributed to this defeat.
That is traitorous and treasonous.
To know what needs to be done and have the capability to do it and then not, well, that’s just crappy.
Mark Coffey this is all your fault. You will go down as a traitor to, wait for it the whole Earth!
Ah, what a wit! Noel Coward, eat your heart out…
Mark, I think you should have mentioned in this post that Greenwald has a very open comment section. He’s only banned two people in the last fourteen months, both of whom repeatedly (and wrongfully) called him a liar.
Though there are millions of monkeys banging on keyboards, and some post at Greenwald’s, Glenn himself doesn’t bear any responsibility for that.
Mark,
Feel free to go over to Protein Wisdom and see all the charming things posted about me. You really need some thicker skin if those two posts bothered you.
Who left that comment?
Hey, but at least you got a hat tip from Taranto, which is nice.
sfHeath, I do appreciate Greenwald’s open comments section, and as you may have noted, I have the same.
steve ex-pat, not only did the comments not bother me, I thought they were funny enough to reproduce in their entirety…
Mark, I’m not ashamed of you! You are getting attention to your blog.
Mom
Aha, so take that! My mom is sticking by me after all…
