Maryland Democratic gubernatorial candidate can't keep his foot out of his mouth

[thisnumbersdisconnected]

Last fall, photos of Maryland Democrat and state attorney-general Doug Gansler standing in the midst of an illegal teen booze party surfaced, and his explanation was "he didn't see anything."

Now he has managed to insult every vet in Maryland, as well as the whole of the United States.

Fox News: Md. gov candidate suggests Iraq War vet opponent not up for 'real job'http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...esting-iraq-war-vet-opponent-not-up-for-real/http://www.foxnews.com/politics/201...esting-iraq-war-vet-opponent-not-up-for-real/

A Democratic candidate for governor of Maryland is defending comments he made Monday in which he suggested his opponent, an Iraq war veteran, was not up to the task of a “real job.”

Maryland Attorney General Douglas Gansler drew ire from a veterans’ group after he made the comments about his opponent for the Democratic nomination, Maryland Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown, at an event held by the Tech Council of Maryland.

During the event, Gansler was asked what the state had learned from the rollout of ObamaCare. Maryland’s state-run exchange has been particularly troubled, and earlier this month the exchange’s board of directors voted to replace technology in the system with one used in in Connecticut's exchange instead of fixing its current system or partnering with the federal government.

Gansler said the website’s woes prove Maryland needs someone who has leadership experience and worked with budgets; someone, he claimed, unlike Brown.

So Iraq and Afghanistan vets haven't had "real jobs" according to Gansler. Anyone want to start a pool as to his chances of winning next week's Democratic primary? Give me "slim to none."

Just one more of those Freudian slips that surface, though deeply ingrained in liberals, in unguarded moments?!?!
