[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The pettiness is amazing.

A woman who works for the Heartland Institute (lobby for fossil fuels, tobacco and nicotine products, anti-climate science) has lit on a book published by the Minnesota Military and Veteran Museum in connection with the 20th anniversary of 9/11. It includes speeches by people who spoke at a Day of Remembrance event at the MN capitol on 9/11/21. The book's version of Walz's speech quotes him describing seeing a flag-draped casket in a plane at Bagram Air Base in Iraq. The gotcha is that the base is in Afghanistan.

Except. . . someone wrote this version of the speech, which is slightly different than the one he actually gave (the whole ceremony is on youtube) in which he just refers to the tarmac at Bagram, doesn't say air base, doesn' say the country. 
It's . . . errata. Which happens.

It appears there are conservatives scouring every damn thing they can find to catch him in a "lie." [/quote]

As they should. Good for him to be called out. He was never anywhere near Bagram. [/quote]

As a Congressman he was. 
The speech was not about himself, except briefly. It was about everyone else, their sacrifices and how they were affected. [/quote]
