This past week in Iraq, U.S. Marines came under heavy fire in such cities as Fallujah and Ramadi. Amid gunfire and rocket-propelled grenade attacks, their mission was to search for the terrorists who killed and desecrated the bodies of four American contractors killed last week and quell an uprising of radical Shi'ites, who are being lead by Sheik Muqtada al-Sadr, a fanatical cleric and a pawn of Hezbollah. At least 15 Marines were killed and 20 more were wounded in the battles.

Giving aid and comfort to our enemy. Why didnt this come from the Majority Leader? When are the Republicans in the Senate going to grow a spine? I yearn to see a Senator go up to Fat Teddy on the Senate floor and see them punch this lying sack of crap right in his stinking mouhth.

JFKerry's strategy of making himself a "hero" of Vietnam, becomes ever so clear. These lying crooked liberals were successful in losing the war of "freedom" in Vietnam and they set in motion a plan to attempt the same "Vietnam syndrome" in opposing the "setting free a nation" of Iraq.

Pretty evil, sick and twisted those who seek to regain their power do so supporting Saddam and the UN who kept the people of Iraq under death and destruction with their UN "Oil for Food" scam.

These of a perverse generation under liberalism have a lot of accounting to account for.

"Senate's resident Klan Man, Robert Byrd "
"the Senate's oratorical Grand Wizard."

With IranContra, the RATS tried to smear those patriotic Americans who dared to take down the Sandinista dictatorship. (The RATS never saw a dictatorship they didn't want to save.)

The legacy of that RAT effort is propelling Ollie North to high prominence in American politcs.

He's turned out to be one of the most effective spokesman for America that the world has ever seen.

Thank you, Ollie.

(And you must be gnashing your teeth, you dirty RATS.)

Contrary to how the media make it out, this has not been an effort to take down a city of more than 300,000 people -- the Marines are only firing when fired upon. They did not prep it with an artillery barrage beforehand.

It is also important to note this has not been just a U.S. Marine Corps operation, but a joint U.S.-Iraqi operation. The timing of it was such they could collect adequate intelligence on the city and use the videotape shot by Arab reporters, and now held by Iraqi authorities, to capture and bring to justice the perpetrators of that terrible crime.

Other important points in this excellent article that deserves to be high-lighted.

Now that terrorists are mastering the manipulation of the media...

This is an important point. And Spain proves that they have also managed the manipulation of the electoral system (relying on their friends in the left).

I really do think many of the things being said by Fat Teddy are treasonous and serve to undermine US military morale, and I would like to hear more people in Congress telling him to shut up.

And the Senate's resident Klan Man, Robert Byrd of West Virginia, was happy and eager to participate. "Surely, I am not the only one who hears echoes of Vietnam in this development.
 

I wonder if Byrd still hears the rustle of the sheet as he pulled it over his head to terrorize blacks...

I'm in with Ollie on every thing he said. If it wasn't for Ollie and two other guys at FOX News who were embedded, we wouldn't be getting much truth about what is really going on in Iraq. Heaven forbid that we would have to believe Teddy the "Woman Killer" and the senior klansman's BYRD droppings. Keep praying for those wonderful Marines and Sailors who are doing so much for us.

Sen. Teddy Kennedy wandered from his palatial Senate office on Capitol Hill to the plush and friendly surroundings of the Brookings Institution

I sent an e-mail to the DNC and one to my Dem. congresscritter Ike Skelton, with a subject line that read "You're killing our troops." Will let you know if I get a response.

I do not expect much from old Ike Skelton, he is my rep as well. Ike was the good old boy who led the House of Representative for the Clinton supporters on that day of "Articles of Impeachment", he later got to christen a ship in the name of Truman.

When it was made public that Clintons were collecting cash from the Red Chinese for campaign purposes, I called Ike's office and asked if Ike was collecting Red Chinese money to run his campaign, there was a gasp on the other end of the phone and "NO"!

Old Ike loves to play the part of being a supporter of the military however, his first love is himself and his party, and he sure knows how to keep his base on the government gravy train.

That's sure true! I don't expect much from him or any of the other politicians --

It's very ironic that the real war heroes never beat there chest and proclaim themsleves war heroes. North like many, did not officially report any wound after his 2nd injury, if he had he would have been rotated out on Vietnam, he wanted to stay with his men, he felt they needed him. War hero Kerry sprinted to report his 3rd shrapnel wound after 4 months in 'Nam.
