A critic recently took to Michael “Mikey” Weinstein’s Facebook page to claim Weinstein had no combat duty and never “fought for this country, only against it.” The slam brought Curtis Weinstein — Mikey Weinstein’s son — out in Dad’s defense<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"combat\"<\/p>\n

Curtis Weinstein<\/strong> Actually Gordon, my dad graduated from the United States Air Force Academy as an honor grad in 1977 and became a JAG and once he became a Captain, he was recruited by the Regan [sic<\/em>] Administration to be one of his lawyers in the White House. Nice try though, it must be hard trying to understand life when you don’t even understand what a “fact” is.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

With some grace for his desire to defend his family, Curtis didn’t do a very good job of it. Mikey Weinstein was accused of attacking<\/em> the country, and never fighting for<\/em> it. Curtis basically proved the point he was trying to defeat: Mikey Weinstein was a lawyer (after he was a Comm Officer) in the early 1980s.\u00a0 The closest Mikey Weinstein ever came to a firefight was a briefing on the breakup of AT&T.\u00a0 That doesn’t rebut the criticism.<\/p>\n

Mikey Weinstein\u00a0never\u00a0served in combat.<\/p>\n

One could just as easily say that\u00a0Curtis has\u00a0a hard time understanding “facts.”<\/p>\n

That said,\u00a0there are many good and upstanding people who served in the US military and never saw combat. There are also many evil people who did<\/em> see combat\u00a0— despite\u00a0the propensity of the American public to categorically\u00a0idolize troops who “risk their lives” for their country. The lack of combat experience on Mikey Weinstein’s part has only really been relevant once, when he tried to belittle Bill O’Reilly<\/a> for his <\/em>lack of combat experience.\u00a0 Otherwise, Mikey Weinstein’s lack of combat experience is irrelevant.<\/p>\n

If someone wanted a more relevant issue, a better question\u00a0would be why Mikey Weinstein (and now his son) continue to say Mikey Weinstein was an “honor graduate” of the US Air Force Academy.\u00a0 If you were to try to look up what that means, you’d find the “title” doesn’t exist, because\u00a0the US Air Force Academy doesn’t have<\/em> “honor graduates.”\u00a0 Now, why would the Weinsteins feel the need to spruce up Mikey’s r\u00e9sum\u00e9? [Update<\/strong><\/span>: Mikey Weinstein disputes this characterization<\/a>.]<\/p>\n

Still,\u00a0Curtis Weinstein’s “rebuttal”, while nobly intended,\u00a0was really nothing of\u00a0the sort. It seems the inability to articulate a logical position, answer a question, or defend a position is not limited to Mikey Weinstein or Chris Rodda.<\/p>\n

Of course, as with their detachment from the truth, the Weinstein situational awareness has never been high.\u00a0 Remember when Curtis’s brother Casey chided a critic<\/a> for\u00a0doing exactly<\/strong> what\u00a0his dad Mikey Weinstein does?<\/p>\n
