Tugging on Superman's cape
You don't tug on superman's cape, you don't spit in the wind, and you don't mess with our Marines! These Jihadist in Irag have learned this the hard way. The quickest way to see allah is to tug on a Marine's cape, yet this enemy prefers to put civilians in danger not only by hiding amongst the population but targeting them as well. The point I am making is how incredibly good the US Military is.
I have had the good fortune to be friends with a few of our finest and I have found that certain characteristics are possessed by these men. Polite and respectful when addressing people complete with "yes sirs" and "no Ma'ams". Reliable, when they say they will be somewhere you can count on them being there. Responsible, they always shoulder their share of the load and then some. In short these are people that you can depend on with your life and liberty which is what we as Americans do.
The sad part is growing up in the aftermath of the Vietnam War; culture, schools, and media conditioned me to think that the Military was only for losers and those that could not make it in the real world. I bought into it. Fortunately through my passion of scuba diving I have been blessed with the friendship of some of America's finest and know the truth first hand.
Now here we are in 2005 and the media is at it again. Linda Foley, the president of Newspaper Guild accused our troops of deliberately targeting journalists. She did this with out any proof and this is after Eason Jordan formerly of CNN also exposed himself as a lair with the same lie. The really nuts part is she is protecting our enemy who really are targeting journalists.
So I think I'll believe our troops this time who have proven themselves trustworthy unlike our media.
