Schmidt for Brains

Congresswoman Jean Schmidt is hands-down the chickenhawk of the year. And yes, this is the first of many "of the year" mentions as we close in on the end of the year. Firedoglake:

Jean Schmidt, who defeated Iraq war veteran Paul Hackett for her seat in Ohio, shuts down the House of Representatives by challenging the courage of decorated Vietnam War veteran Jack Murtha and saying that "cowards cut and run." The place exploded. It was probably everybody pulling out their Blackberries and Googling Jean Schmidt's war record. I guess her history as the head of Cincinnati Right to Life must qualify.

Oh those delusional, delusional, delusional Republicans.
