LIAR: A prominent anti-war artist -- Micah Wright -- has long claimed that his opinion on war should be respected more than others because he was an Army Ranger. While you were sitting on your can watching Dynasty, he was liberating Panama. You don't know what it's like man! You weren't there!

The most noteable came when he had a rather nasty exchange with Kevin Parrot, in which he stated:

I've seen combat to "liberate" people before in Panama. Have you? Did you volunteer to fight for your country? I &%#!ing doubt it. I especially doubt your leg ass ever made it through Airborne School and I KNOW for a fact that you wouldn't have survived one week of Ranger School.

Well, neither does Wright.

Turns out the closest he ever got to Army Ranger school is ROTC. In simpler language, George W. Bush's opinion on military matters -- to use Wright's criteria -- are more important than Wright's. For that matter, so are mine.

Michele at A Small Victory reports -- in a very profanity-laden manner -- on the whole story.

If there are any Army Rangers out there reading this and you meet up with Mr. Wright...well, you know.
