To be fair, the reporter Sites makes a statement about the professionalism of the marines that he has been with if you look at the end of the clip I saw at MSN news. I think it is the folks at Black Rock (NBC HQ) that are trying to make this into a war crime or something. Personally, one look at the tape and it is completely understandable what happened and the appropriateness of it.

You need to put a *medical warning* on these scrappleface.com posts!

Well Al Jazeera did just hire Scott Ritter. They're probably paying him in child prostitutes. Truth is just as strange as fiction.

I knew it was humor when it was stated the award was turned down, that's unrealistic IMNSHO.

Oh man, you had me going there for a moment. This is just close enough to real life to be scary.
To: spodefly
Best satire is the one where it is so close to the truth that you can't help but believe it.

Michael Savage is calling for Kevin Sites to be tried and convicted for treason.

Does anyone know how we can send our comments to this reporter, Sites? He had to have known that the MSM would use his tape to trash our marines. I've emailed NBC and MSNBC with my thoughts about their Liberal-biased distortions of the incident. I've also emailed and called the White House to express my support for this marine as well as all our brave marines.
