Debunking Buchanan: Jeremiah Wright served in the Marines, but Pat Buchanan didn't serve his nation (Post 2 of 5)

One of the most offensive statements in Pat Buchanan's response to Barack Obama's speech is this:

Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

I'm sorry Pat, but Jeremiah Wright is a former Marine.

You, Pat, are a chickenhawk. You should get down on your knees and kiss Jeremiah Wright's ring for serving in the armed forces of the United States of America.
