Thread: A RETIRED MARINE SPEAKS THE TRUTHâ€

A friend sent this to me in an email today and I loved it. What do you think?


A RETIRED MARINE SPEAKS THE TRUTH
This guy just may be on to something, what do you think?


This guy nails it to the floor...the floor of the White House, Congress, the Senate, and the NY Times

A Retired Marine SGM Responds!!!

(Too bad we don't have folks on Capitol Hill willing to speak out like this. J.D. Pendry is a retired Marine Sergeant Major who writes for Random House. He is eloquent, and as taught by the Marines,
he seldom beats around the bush!)

'The Axis of Idiots"
Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You're the runner-in-chief.

Bill Clinton, you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the USS
Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately, they grew bolder, until 9/11/2001..

John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam . Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. You've accused our military of
terrorizing women and children in Iraq . You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, the same words you used to describe Vietnam. You're a fake.. You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did to the Vietnamese. Iraq, like Vietnam, is another war that you were for, before you were against it..

John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we can't win militarily in Iraq . You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa.
Okinawa, John ? And the Democrats call you their military expert! Are you sure you didn't suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You're a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. You're not a Marine, sir. You wouldn't amount to a good pimple on a real Marine's butt. You're a phony and a disgrace. Run away, John .

Dick Durbin, you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot, who murdered two million of his own people after your party
abandoned Southeast Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us! See Dick run.

Ted Kennedy, for days on end you held poster-sized pictures from Abu Ghraib in front of any available television camera. Al Jazeera quoted you saying that Iraqi's torture chambers were open under new management. Did you see the news, Teddy? The Islamic Nazis demonstrated another beheading for you. If you truly supported our troops, you'd show the world poster-sized pictures of that atrocity and demand the annihilation of it. Your legislation stripping support from the South Vietnamese led to a
communist victory there. You're a bloated, drunken fool bent on repeating the same historical blunder that turned freedom-seeking people over to homicidal, genocidal maniacs. To paraphrase John Murtha, all while sitting on your wide, gin-soaked rear-end in Washington .

Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Hillary Clinton, Pat Leahy, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, the Hollywood Leftist morons, et al, ad nauseam: Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied, that the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers, that we should leave Iraq, you give the Islamic butchers - the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers - cause to think that we'll run away again, and all they have to do is hang on a little longer.

It is inevitable that we, the infidels, will have to defeat the Islamic jihadists. Better to do it now on their turf, than later on ours after they have gained both strength and momentum.

American news media, the New York Times particularly: Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one united with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can't strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda is. Think about that each time you face Mecca to admire your Pulitzer..

You are America 's 'AXIS OF IDIOTS.' Your Collective Stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist-abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the
lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on
the hands of murdering terrorists. Don't ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam . If you want our Soldiers home as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies.

Yes, I'm questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with self. I'm also questioning why you're stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don't deserve the protection of our men and
women in uniform. You need to run away from this war, this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.

Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within.

Semper Fi,

J. D. Pendry - Sergeant Major, USMC, Retired

This is a savvy man. He has nailed it down pretty good. Too bad it won't do any good. There won't be 1 in 10 that receive it that will forward it.

This guy just may be on to something, what do you think?

I think he may be a very good Marine but strongly disagree with a lot he said. The wars in Iraq and Viet Nam were definitely not in Americas interests.

I will say that when politicians choose to send our youth to war they should be allowed to 'Fight to Win'. War should never be entered into lightly or for the wrong reasons. IMO

Actually I think that is what he is saying. It was people like Kerry, Fonda and Kennedy that caused us to fight with no intention of winning and our premature pull out caused the murders of countless thousands of people who depended on us. This is exactly what would happen if we were to pull out of Iraq right now.

You give bit players much to much credit. Much like a magicians beautiful assistant is there merely as a distraction so were these bit players.
The military industrial complex runs the show during war and 'their' profits came/come foremost.

Follow the money applies in very many instances my friend.

Semper Fi Marine

Those of us like you are with you all the way.

He didn't say that! And he isn't just a "very good Marine" he is an example of what a real man is: A real man stands up and fights, a real man honors his commitments (Iraq and VietNam), and a real man stands by his country, right or wrong. That's what real men do. I'm married to one, so I know the truth.

If you really want a meaningful discussion on the issue, perhaps you should provide an argument with your opinion.

I'm not sure I follow you. All I know is what I saw and heard as a Marine in Nam during the early 70's.
I'm not here to argue with you but money has nothing to do with backing people and then leaving them to die because people like fonda run to the enemy posing for pic's and causing American POW's to suffer. This is what I believe this Marine is talking about. Right, wrong or indifferent we were in Nam, right wrong or indifferent we are in Iraq and people lives are on the line, you can't play games like that without some thought as to your actions.
This Marine is talking about people who sit in their ivory towers with no real thought or concideration for the suffering and death caused by their actions and words. Once committed to a cause you have to see it through.
We had Americans in Nam back in 1950 because the Russians and Chinese were in the north, there was a lot more going on than people know.
