That's all that matters here.
Well, let us not get dramatic. I 'signed up' to serve (back when the draft was a requirement), but I doubt you would claim that I am a 'hero'.

I did not even have a bone spur in my foot.

Kelly lied.

Kelly was at Wilson's speech in 2015. Said he was "stunned, stunned." Then he lied.

Retired Four Star Marine General stood at the White House press podium and lied.

He didn't "misspeak." It wasn't an off-the-cuff tangent. His remarks were clearly prepared.

It was not fake news.

Kelly lied.

Very disappointing.

Kelly seemed to be a man of integrity until yesterday. For him to so boldly spew a whopper that could be easily checked out means that he's now just another tRump enabler.

Remember when the word was that he was serving as chief of staff to organize the WH and tamp down the chaos out of a sense of duty to the country?

Gone

How do you know he lied?

He told the truth that the congresswoman was grandstanding and bragging about herself.

He apparently did not remember exactly how she did that.

Instead of grandstanding about obtaining funding, she was grandstanding about fast tracking legislation through to name the bldg.

How do you know Kelly lied rather than made a mistake because his memory failed him?

Just curious about your psychic abilities.

Same question to you.

Since the congresswomans speech testifies to the truth of Kelly's point that she was grandstanding about herself rather than the fallen agents, how do you know he lied rather than had a failure of memory regarding the exact facts.

How do you come to the conclusion that Kelly lied rather than he is simply mistaken about what the congresswoman was grandstanding about when she should have been talking about the fallen agents?

Voluminous praise from many high ranking folks who'd worked with him over the years.

Judging from your statement, you obviously haven't seen the congresswoman's speech.
