...the only reason they entered the political arena was because of DJT's blatantly anti-Muslim rhetoric on the campaign trail. Someone had to show that Muslims can also be American patriots. I wish service members and veteran orgs would have spoken up more forcefully to support the Khan's. Instead, most sheepishly remained quiet.


Vets orgs know when dead Military are being used for political purposes.

The Benghazi families still don't know how their loved ones died. It's a nightmare for them.

Benghazi victims' families file suit against Clinton


Dana Littlefield
San Diego Union-Tribune
The parents of two men killed in Benghazi, Libya nearly four years ago are suing former Secretary of State and current presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, saying the attack resulted from her “reckless” handling of classified information.

The federal lawsuit, filed Monday, comes from Patricia Smith of San Diego, whose son Sean Smith was a U.S. State Department technology officer, and Charles Woods of Portland, Ore., whose son Tyrone Woods was CIA security contractor.

Last night during President Trump’s speech, a Liberty Advisor Group employee sent out an offensive and inappropriate tweet regarding the Gold Star family that was being rightly honored before Congress and the Nation. The personal views of this individual do not represent Liberty and we vigorously disavow them. Although the message and subsequent apologies were sent from an individual’s personal account, and bore no connection to his work with Liberty, his comments were inconsistent with the Company’s values and the unyielding respect it has for the members of our Nation’s Armed Forces. Regardless of whether the comments in the tweet were intended to cause the hurt and anger that they ultimately generated, they were unacceptable to us, and the individual who issued the tweet is no longer affiliated with Liberty. Liberty’s culture places a high value on the men and women of America's military who fight to defend us and our families. We honor them. We want to express our sincere condolences to Mrs. Owens. We also apologize to all those who have served this nation, including those Liberty employees who have themselves served, and anyone else who was offended by these comments. - See more at: http://www.libertyadvisorgroup.com/statement#sthash.KidYYi9p.dpuf


Awwww! Your liberal jacka@@ hero got fired!

Actually, the difference between liberals and conservatives is that when a liberal insults a Gold Star family he gets fired. When a wannabe conservative does it, he gets elected President.

Khan the immigration lawyer used his son (whom Trump called a HERO) to support HRC's Presidental bid.

Trump in no way disrespected Cpt Khan.

No, he just mocked his mother for standing silent and griefstricken next to her husband. Trump's a classy guy.

Trump should just let the immigration lawyer and co. use their dead and silent son to attack him and try to get votes for HRC.

KLASSY! Dead kids are THE BEST VOTE GETTERS.

The Khans have zero shame.

Yeah, and nobody cares about her or her son.

But when an immigration lawyer flogs his dead son about, stop the presses!

Hypocrisy abounds and I am so glad this world class a@@hole who disrespected this woman lost his job.

Did you speak up to defend the Khan family against DJT's attacks? If no, why not?


The Khan's were using their dead son to garner votes for their candidate. If you insert yourself into a political race you do so willfully, and any push back you receive is on you. We don't know how Cpt Khan felt. The parents were speaking for themselves and their candidates.

Last night, the wife of a fallen SEAL was recognized and honored.

I am astute enough to not be played, and honor those who deserve it.


I was incredibly moved by her grief. I was also uncomfortable because it did feel to me that Trump was using his death and her obvious love for her husband for political gain. His remark following the applause where he talked about the record setting applause and Ryan looking down and being very happy about the applause made me feel it was political on Trump's part. I hope I am wrong about Trump because her husband gave his life for our country. I want a president who takes the Commander in Chief job so seriously that he would never make a go/no go decision over a dinner with a couple of aids. I want a Commander in Chief who takes responsibility for any loss of life that occurs following a decision he makes to send our brave men and women into harms way. Our men and women of the armed forces and their loved ones deserve nothing less.

For the record--anyone who tweeted out anything derogatory about his widow is the idiot. That issue should be bipartisan.
