I know it's off topic and I apologize, but apparently he believes that
those who serve are dumbasses.

I think he was referring to Dumbya...getting stuck in Iraq.
He may of been, but it doesn't matter. The fact is that many took it as an
insult to those serving in the military ... correctly or not.
If he had any class or brains he would have immediately called a press
conference. clarified his statement and apologized for the misunderstanding.
He has not. In fact he refuses to. Instead, he is blaming the opposition
for using his screw-up to their political advantage.
Regardless of the interpretation of his statement, it was still not
something worthy of a sitting, senior United States senator. It was more
like something you and a few others would post in rec.boats.
I am absolutely disgusted with the behavior of many of our elected "leaders"
.... republicans and democrats.
Do you still have your information on Costa Rica? I might be interested.
