Tort, That makes sense. Point well taken.

Thank you for your insight.

Thanks. I'll keep an eye out for yours.

Second Battalion, Seventh Cavalry

GARRY OWEN!

Payback is a Bitch: The Bravest Man I Ever Knew

Let Bacchus' sons be not dismayed
But join with me, each jovial blade
Come, drink and sing and lend your aid
To help me with the chorus:

Chorus

Instead of spa, we'll drink brown ale
And pay the reckoning on the nail;
No man for debt shall go to jail
From Garryowen in glory.

We'll beat the bailiffs out of fun,
We'll make the mayor and sheriffs run
We are the boys no man dares dun
If he regards a whole skin.

Chorus

Our hearts so stout have got no fame
For soon 'tis known from whence we came
Where'er we go they fear the name
Of Garryowen in glory.

Chorus

I've been reading about this outrage in several newspapers of the MSM including the NYT (of course, a lot of papers simply parrot our 'newspaper of record) and their stories simply read that the "body of a mutilated woman was found"

What a passive-voice, namby pamby description of an absolutely barbarous act. By failing to give readers a real description, they are implicitly couching the terms of engagement against our troops and our righteous cause.

[T. Buzzard Trueblood]

Hilarious.

But of course. :-)

I posted one of mine here at FR during a poetry contest about a year ago or so. Came in somewhere in the top ten behind screenname "SabreTooth" (I think).

It was a tune entitled "LEGACY", an original about Der Schlick Meister.

[Pajamajan]

Since the MSM trying to trash our military again- BUMP
Everybody needs to read this article about the "innocent" Iraqi's in Fallujah.

[Gondring]

The difference between western troops and the Iraqis is that we know when there is a time to NOT shoot.

Unfortunate comment, given recent events.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I will defer to the Marine's judgement in the situation.
