On NBC's Saturday Night Live, Pete Davidson mocks GOP Congressional candidate Dan Crenshaw for losing his eye in war: “You may be surprised to hear he’s a Congressional candidate from Texas and not a hitman in a porno movie. I’m sorry, I know he lost his eye in war, or whatever.” pic.twitter.com/krQwesqLAV— Ryan Saavedra (@RealSaavedra) November 4, 2018
WNU Editor: Pete Davidson who delivered the monologue lost his father (a fireman) on 9/11. He of all people should have known better that by mocking a vet who was crippled in an IED explosion would produce a backlash .... but apparently not. This is why many people hate the people who run America's media networks. They cannot relate to this garbage.

"Dan was hit by an IED blast during a mission in Helmand province, Afghanistan."
We were told that Afghanistan was the good war and Iraq was the bad war by the Democrats and others.

If it is fair game to go after Afghan vets who fought in the good war, is it fair game to go after WW2 vets who fought NAZI Germany and Japan.
Would it be fair to mock Soviet vets who fought in the Great Patriotic War? Would SNL do that?
In 2011 some people were saying with the Iraq War wrapped up that the usual suspects would now consider Afghanistan the bad war.
So if they are so flippantly considering Afghanistan a bad war also at this point in time if is fair to ask did these flippant people ever consider winning the Good but now the bad war?
I don't think so. They just wanted their swag.
Perhaps if more dead-eyed, drug-addled, stupified Americans had opposed America's useless land wars in Asia the Crenshaw's of the world wouldn't be placed in an impossible position.
I was under the impression that our fat a$$ president was intent on ending these pointless adventures in the east.
Many more must die (Yemen, Syria, Afghanistan, Libya) to enrich the America national security state and its parasites.
Just when you think they could not stoop any lower. Bam!!
WNU,
I really must disagree. He's wonderful.
Mr WNU, what we are witnessing is what is known as 'Play the man, not the ball'.
It's the sporting tactic you make when you reach rock bottom and are desperate.
Man, I feel for you! Your hatred is really stunning.
America overthrew Saddam Hussein.
they held an oil auction.
The Iraqis got the money and the Chinese got the oil.
To rock bottom Lefty anon. Your tactics are not working.
but maybe you will be traced by the government, etc.
