Suffering
from delusions of grandeur, NBC news anchor Brian Williams has been caught in a
lie. Check that. A
couple of lies.
Fancying himself a kind of Col. Jessup from A Few
Good Men, Williams willfully lied to portray his counterfeit bravery. The claim that his helicopter was hit by RPG
and AK-47 fire in Iraq has crumbled and now he is assiduously attempting to
salvage his career.
For over 10 years
Williams has repeated his half-truth of heroic survival and even told it again
as recently as last Friday night, during a Rangers game when NBC did a special
segment about one of the soldiers who protected him in Iraq.
He was busted when Stars
& Stripes, a military newspaper, asked the helicopter crew members
about that fateful day and they had a different story to tell: the truth.
He lies as easily as his hero Law Professor/Community Organizer president and rivals his smugness.
Someone should remind Williams his lies are tantamount to stolen valor.

Fabulists of a feather... MT @Hadas_Gold Dan Rather backs Brian Williams, says he's "an honest decent man" http://t.co/U64B8qz9rQ

"Brian Williams" is Danger's middle name

Maybe Al Sharpton can fill in for Brian for a few weeks.
You know, try to gain back some credibility.

UPDATE 6:54PM: Brian Williams lied about seeing “entire war plan” for Iraq invasion on Facebook.
