Fox Guest: Calling Iran A Quagmire 'Definition Of Being Un-American 101'
Wingnut radio host Ben Ferguson and Fox's Harris Faulkner sound a lot like the nonsense we heard from the right during Bush's illegal invasion of Iraq back in the day.
Ferguson was a guest on this Friday's The Faulkner Focus. During a discussion where Ferguson was initially trying to minimize the fact that the midterms should be a bloodbath for Republicans by and attacking Democrats as not having a cohesive message for the voters, Ferguson then lashed out at Democrats who've called Trump's disastrous Iran war a "quagmire". He accused them of being un-American, hating the troops, and rooting against America.
FAULKNER: I just don't hear any of them rooting for America at a moment when our men and women are deployed in the Middle East. I don't hear anything about them talking about the good things that are happening in this country with regard to supporting not only those who are part of our communities with that, but also the law enforcement. I mean, protection at our airports...
FERGUSON: Look at the words they've used.
FAULKNER: ...please, protection at a time when DHS isn't even funded. I mean, it's really remarkable.
FERGUSON: Well, you look at the word they started using over the last three days. They started referring to the war in Iran as a quagmire.
We've taken out the top leadership, the second level, the third level, the fourth level. We've literally taken 40 years of a military buildup in Iran and decimated it in 40 days.
