Carly Fiorina apparently has neither.Just a short time ago, Carly was going around making some truly disparaging remarks about Sarah Palin, but she sure was willing and quick to embrace Palin’s endorsement. No shame.Now she is out attacking a military reservist, disparaging his service.See, in California people get to put a descriptor on their ballot line item describing who they are. Carly put “business executive”, even though she hasn’t been one since 2005. She really does not want Chuck DeVore to have “military reservist” on his line.Fiorina’s campaign, when contacted, said DeVore is not a military reservist. Have they even bothered checking up on DeVore? If they had, not only would they realize they were disparaging Chuck DeVore’s service to his country, but they would hopefully recognize just how petty it is to bicker over a title.If Fiorina were playing by her own standard for DeVore, she would not be able to put “business executive” down for herself. She’d need something like . . . say . . . “Fired Hewlett Packard CEO” or “California to China Job Exporter”.Let’s review DeVore’s record. According to DeVore’s campaign, “he holds a Reserve commission in the United States Army as a Lieutenant Colonel.”More from the campaign on the specific qualifications is below the fold.]]>Fri, 21 May 2010 04:50:00 -0400<![CDATA[Erick Erickson]]>https://redstate.com/erick/2010/05/21/carly-fiorina-publicly-attacks-a-military-reservist-n34769
