Rob,

You really should give a hat tip and a link when someone (like robert108) posts the same substantial information ahead of you in the readers blogs…

Agreed, but Rob has moved Recent Reader Entries to the front page.  Does that make a difference?

Perhaps you ought not to read Jonah Goldberg too much.  Ooops, mother of slain soldier honored to have Obama talk about her son.

Apparently only republicans have the right to wear a fallen soldiers bracelet.  This mother was accosted on the internet from rightie blogs for giving Obama the bracelet. Classless!

Another bullshit “rights” argument from a leftie.  In fact, she didn’t give him the bracelet to use as a political prop.  This is in the report.  Quit making things up.

Sgt. Ryan David Jopek’s mother’s most recent response said that she felt that Obama’s reference to the bracelet was appropriate after McCain invoked his bracelet.

OBAMA’S BRACELET GETS A CODA

The mother of a Wisconsin soldier who died in Iraq says she was “ecstatic” when Senator Obama mentioned during Friday’s debate the bracelet she gave him in honor of her son. Tracy Jopek of Merrill, Wis., told the Associated Press yesterday she was honored that Mr. Obama remembered Sergeant Ryan David Jopek, who was killed in 2006 by a roadside bomb. Ms. Jopek criticized Internet reports suggesting Mr. Obama exploited her son for political purposes. “I don’t understand how people can take that and turn it into some garbage on the Internet,” she said. Ms. Jopek acknowledged e-mailing the Obama campaign in February asking that the presidential candidate not mention her son in speeches or debates. But she said Mr. Obama’s mention on Friday was appropriate because he was responding after Senator McCain said a soldier’s mother gave him a bracelet.

Sounds like a little kid “hitback” to me.  She didn’t want him to exploit her son’s death for political purposes, but now it’s OK?  Bullshit.
