One last time unto the breach

Tony — 9/9/2004 8:25:11 PM (archived)

I know it's kinda pointless but since you chose not to bold these lines at the top......

MALKIN: Well, yes. Why donâ€˜t people ask him more specific questions about the shrapnel in his leg. They are legitimate questions about whether or not it was a self-inflicted wound.

(CROSSTALK)

MATTHEWS: What do you mean by self-inflicted? Are you saying he shot himself on purpose? Is that what youâ€˜re saying?

Malkin brought it up. Malkin raised the question over whether it was a self-inflicted wound. Not Matthews, Malkin.
You can get pedantic about what self-inflicted means in the military if you like. I know what it means to me, and shrapnel bouncing off a rock in the distance isnt the picture that comes to mind.

  - So why didn't the bitch slap him herself? - Mary Anne - 9/4/2004 4:56:24 PM
    - There are better ways to bitchslap someone nowadays. - Tom Brosz - 9/4/2004 8:40:12 PM

        Complaining about the use of proper terminology is absurd - Larry J - 9/8/2004 1:23:36 PM
        
        Yes, that seems to be the current right-wing viewpoint- all statements are open to politically convinient interpretation. - Davin L. - 9/8/2004 3:55:39 PM

        Then, when people still refuse to concede a point to you when you are wrong, call them stupid - Davin L. - 9/9/2004 8:21:07 PM

        No, you have what it takes to be a Kerry advisor. (n/t) - ebnelson - 9/5/2004 4:18:22 PM
        
        rHow about this? "Ann Coulter is the blonde Michelle Malkin." - Mary Anne - 9/5/2004 2:59:30 PM
        
        What can I say? - Robert - 9/5/2004 6:44:35 PM

        Accidentally wounding yourself is not a criminal offense - Larry J - 9/6/2004 2:09:36 AM
        
        Had she said "accidentally wounded himself", we wouldn't be having this conversation. - Mary Anne - 9/6/2004 2:49:11 AM
        
        Just because Mathews (and apparently you) don't like the term... - Larry J - 9/6/2004 6:39:09 PM

        She wasn't on the show to discuss that book at all - Larry J - 9/6/2004 10:42:49 PM
        
        Your own post shows that she was trying to imply that Kerry intentionally wounded himself! - R.L. - 9/8/2004 2:50:24 AM
        
        She was saying something from a book written by someone else - Larry J - 9/8/2004 4:31:24 PM

        Could it be that no one really gave a damn until Kerry made it a big deal - ebnelson - 9/4/2004 8:53:30 PM
        
        Fine! File charges today! - Mary Anne - 9/4/2004 9:34:56 PM

        It sure sounds like it though. - Mary Anne - 9/4/2004 9:32:01 PM

        Michelle was quoting the book, and incorrectly thought Chris had bothered to read it. - ebnelson - 9/4/2004 9:37:58 PM
        
        Understand me: I want this settled, one way or the other. - Mary Anne - 9/4/2004 10:33:23 PM
