Emmis' KFTK morning star Jamie Allman, whose son is just shipping out to Iraq, received an email toward the end of his Wednesday show from listener Steve Fehr, that included this:
How can you in good conscious [sic] support your son's decision to join the armed services when the Commander in Chief is bent on the destruction of everything this country stands for?
No longer is there any glory or pride to be derived from military service in this country. Not through the fault of the servicemen themselves but as a result of the policies implemented by the spineless, limp-wristed leaders we have elected.
Tell your son and every other member of the military you know to desert. They are fighting and dying for nothing.
Sincerely,
Steve Fehr
