Under Fire. The Marine has earned the benefit of the doubt.

Chris Matthews needs to be handed over to Zarqawi as a peace offering. Of course if they hung Meatwad off the overpass, the freeway would collapse, but it would be educational to the rest of the meatwad media.

I hate this story. Poor Marine. It's a war! In a war you kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill the enemy. If I'm in a war zone and I see a wounded enemy move, I'm gonna shoot the guy in the head five times or so. This guy only shot once. I'd say he showed excellent restraint.

One dead islamo-facsist.

Three live US Marines.

And the MSM media is still questioning the value of this.

Jesus.

We are rightly unsettled at witnessing the violent death of a fellow human being.

Whoa nellie, that's not how I would describe these head-taking muthaF***s. No siree Bob.

If the dems would only come out and say " this marine deserves the benefit of the doubt, we support him and all fighting men & women of the US Armed forces. To accuse him of a crime without all the facts and not taking into consideration the situation and circumstances surrounding this event is inexcusable and we as democrats do not support this shameless attempt to portray all fighting men and women as murderers. Long live the corp. Semper Fidelis"

They can't!!! It is not in their DNA!!! There ladies and gentlemen wherein lies the problem.

So to hell with them. They will never get the support of the american people.

Not to mention, he also saved the life of the camerman.

Well, let me ask you this," Matthews says. "If this were the other side, and we were watching an enemy soldier, a rival — I mean, they're not bad guys, especially, just people who disagree with us, they are in fact insurgents, fighting in their country

Matthews is a vile, disgusting, terrorist-loving piece of trash!

[odoso]

"In a war you kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill kill the enemy."

So why are CM and the rest of the MSM Nazi's against America still walking around?

God Bless our Troops!

[kahoutek]

A benefit which went completely unnoticed by said cameraman.

[highlandbreeze]

Yes, I noticed that. =0P

Connell looked at Wallace and Jennings as he might a pair of stains on his dress blues. "I have utter contempt," he said. "Two days later they're both walking off my hilltop, two hundred yards away and they get ambushed. And they're lying there wounded. And they're going to expect I'm going to send Marines up there to get them. They're just journalists. They're not Americans."

And when Connell's Marines do go and rescue these "journalists", and have to fight their way to them, killing some of the enemy in the process, the "journalists" will thank the Marines for saving their lives by accusing them of being war criminals, for killing the "heroic freedom fighters" during the rescue.

I think the statement which was ridiculed as neandrathal in the 60s by the pseudo-elite is true. For sometimes it is neccesary to destroy the village in order to pacify it. FACT

[.cnI redruM]

I refer to the man as Meatwad!

[1903A3]

Yes !!
That is the only mistake that kid made
I hope the lesson is not lost

I saw parts of that original panel on C-Span and was dumbfounded. Great post, it explains the fogging going on: moral relativism, multicultural baloney and God help us, here comes Hill.

[hershey]

Matthews is a fool.

[.cnI redruM]

It's a revolting situation.

[Piquaboy]

Chris Mathews is a sorry excuse for a human. All mouth and no brains. He has not a clue as to what it would be like to be under the stress that these Marines were under.

[NDpapajoe]

Speaking of the cameraman. What's he thinking turning in that video instead of destroying it? What about the next few people at NBC who handled it and started making decisions to put it on national TV?

IMHO NBC made a bad call here, and I doubt that they had the best intentions in so doing.

The story here is NBC and their contempt for the soldier. Not the military or the politicians, that particular individual soldier.

NBC, you're no longer wecome in my home. You ought to be ashamed of yourselves.
