It is they who are not worthy of him.

And there's lots more like him serving our country.

Well said.

Hero Ping.

In the meantime while Senator Clinton is wringing her worthless hands over a few Iraqi thugs being 'mistreated' some devout Muslims were beheading an American civilian in the name of their sick, twisted, murdering 'god' and putting it up on a website for the world to see.

The mods can pull this. I no longer care.

I want those sick murderous bastards dead. Every single stinking one of them.

He then directed his driver into the enemy trench, where he exited his vehicle and began to clear the trench with an M16A2 service rifle and 9 millimeter pistol. His ammunition depleted, Chontosh, with complete disregard for his safety, twice picked up discarded enemy rifles and continued his ferocious attack.

When a Marine following him found an enemy rocket propelled grenade launcher, Chontosh used it to destroy yet another group of enemy soldiers.

When his audacious attack ended, he had cleared over 200 meters of the enemy trench, killing more than 20 enemy soldiers and wounding several others.
Marines doing what they do best!

Great post, the only problem found in this article is the fact that noone heard about this through the "major news media". It will contiue to be ignored because it doesn't further the peacenik/dimocRatic/leftist news media's agenda.
