You now understand that one of our U.S. Marines made a comment so outrageous that he is now on par with the worst of the terrorists. I assume that most readers of this site are aware enough and have a sense od proportion and common sense to see clearly that this is Casey Hoff's opinion, for whatever it's worth.
In my case it's worth zero or less, since it was gratuitously worded to serve his own purposes.
Taking any known terrorist at random, defined by what they do, not by what they say, and the whole cheap posturing disintegrates before our eyes.

Most definately AGREE. Would not want to be in Indian country when S___ hits the fan alongside anyone who does NOT
believe as does Mr.Mattis. While I am reluctant to borrow the term Semper Fi from the Marines. Mr.Mattis deserves
all accolades the unwashed will Never understand.I get P'd
when I see reasonable comments taken out of context by the
America Haters for th esole purpose of demoralizing and
destructive impact on our fighting men.
To: Dominick
Liberals always like to cite family members who have served in the military - as if to gain respect and credibility by proxy to cover up their hate-America actions.

We have had deserters and the like throughout history in our military but even if the MSM can find current or former military to make hay, it would never reflect the true honor and dignity bestowed upon and deserved by our armed forces. I think the more the liberals try to use this tactic the more it works to our advantage. Just look what this election has done for Vietnam Veterans that once were spat on returning from service. This is not the 60's and I see no hippies so let them keep it up, it serves us well. Iraq and Afghanistan will go down as major victories and turning points in history. Historians will look well upon the soldiers and the president.

Mattis is not a hero, but a terrorist and an inhumane piece of human debris. He is a Benedict Arnold in our effort to fight terrorism and is a disgrace to this country.Can't find words suitable for this punk.

There are Marines on the base, but that doesn't make it a Marine Base. Apparently, many of us know that, but "Kay-thee" doesn't. He's about as well informed as we can expect him to be, I guess. Goofball liberal.
We vacationed at Perdido Key last summer and went on base to see the Naval Air Museum, which was outstanding. How'd the base and museum stand up to the hurricanes that came through last year?

"Anyone who does not enjoy the thought of killing people who rape women and children, routinely cut off body parts including heads, and torture their own is in need of psychiatric help!" Sounds like your talking about John F'n Kerry's "Jing-giss Khan".

Poor casey. No one loves him. He has to fall in with the losers/America haters to have someone to talk to. It must be a lonely life.

You have articulated the failure of socialism and the promise of capitalism very well. And you've motivated me to admire you for it.

Stuffy, stilted, arrogant, self-righteous and puerile blatherings of those who take upon themselves the mantle of moral and intellectual superiority... gimmeabreak!
Go, General! Salute from the sidelines.

Any soldier who enjoys killing needs some serious psychiatric help.Very poor generalization, very poor. I am sure that you NEVER served in theater and seen buddies killed, innocent civilians murdered by commies otherwise you would not,could not, make that comment. So sit in your hot tub, spewing leftist, anti American bs and enjoy your freedom to do so. It was earned by our soldiers for you even though you don't deserve it.

My uncle ran the Pensacola Marine Base and flew both Presidents Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford. He also served in Vietnam, and in Beirut he flew a helicopter to try and free the Iranian hostages. My grandfather served in World War II in Pearl Harbor at the time of the horrific bombings there. I also have a very good friend who is currently serving in Iraq. I AM CALLING YOU A LIAR. CARE TO RESPOND?

Personally, I don't want a military that doesn't enjoy doing their job and doing it well. Killing isn't something to be relished, unless it's killing the bad guys who behead, blow up innocent people and threatening my country. I don't want our troops to come home feeling guilty for doing their job.

Disagreeing with the WOT He didn't say disagreeing with the WOT, he said GIVING AID AND COMFORT TO THE ENEMY and that is exactly what they are doing.
Don't misquote or misrepresent something just because you're a pacifist.
