THAT has some credibility. I will read that post of his much more closely now, and with an open mind. Thank you for further info. Yes, I was questioned many times by others about my posts, especially early on.
Jeremiah, I wouldn't back peddle too fast. If mom of 2 marines was really the mother of 2 marines, WHY would she work so hard making the world safe for al qaeda's whose ultimate goal is to destroy her sons. Doesn't make sense unless she's so liberal she cannot even defend her own in a war in which case her views do not merit consideration.
In the case of Lt Pantano, any kill resulting in a dead islamofascist is a "rightous" kill. Lt Pantano performed the duty he was trained for and ordered to perform by the preasident, the marine corps and the american people. Any rules of engagement that prevent a marine from performing his duty are the wrong ROE and the chain of command responsible needs to be facing courts martial.
