Are you kidding? A democrat could be caught on tape taking a bribe (not that that would ever happen) and still refuse to step down.
Marine officer a "political casualty" of Haditha investigation

Mark, below was on the Indepundit site and tells what our great Marines are going through.
The Marines being charged are based here in San Diego at Camp Pendelton.
The 1st Marines as others here are on their third tour of duty. They were the first into Bagdad, the heavy fighting in Fallujah,etc.
On November 15, 2004, the Marines were busy clearing houses in the Battle for Fallujah. Peralta, as scout team leader, was responsible for locating the enemy and directly ground forces to destroy them. He was not supposed join in the assaults inside the homes.
However, Rafael Peralta was not the kind of guy to stand around watching things happen. He wanted to make things happen. He routinely requested to join the assault teams entering the insurgent filled houses.
During the fateful assault on the 15th, after clearing three houses, Peralta lead the charge into the fourth house, finding two rooms empty on the ground floor. Upon opening a third door, Peralta was hit multiple times with AK-47 fire - severely wounded, he dropped to the floor and moved away in order to give the Marines behind him an opportunity to fire on the insurgents.
As the battle continued, the insurgents lobbed a grenade at the Marines. Two Marines were trapped in the room with Peralta. When they saw the grenade, they tried to get out of the blast area but were trapped.
Peralta, bleeding out on the floor, reached for the grenade and pulled it to his midsection, cradling the grenade before it cooked off.
The grenaded exploded, killing Peralta and critically wounding another Marine, the others all survived because Peralta absorbed the majority of the lethal blast.
"When should I engage someone?"
Well I bet the next time somebody digs a hole and places an IED in front of a family's house...perhaps the occupants may do something different than THE DEAD CONSPIRATORIAL SYMPATHIZERS in Haditha.
God Bless our Marines.
lol~ thanks! I always thought Dan Quayle was very cute but it was because he reminded me of Mr.FF. Mr.FF does not want to hear it.
LOL,,,,,,, add $90,000 in the freezer, and he still would not step down! ;-)
Hell you can get caught with Cocaine, do a little time and end up a DC councilman.
I'm a big Dan Quayle fan. I still chuckle, though, at that classic televised VP debate of 1992(?), which made it onto Comedy Central.
Well Dan Quayle's eyes alone are just awesome. TV and print photos do him no justice. I am not normally a big fan of blonds, but he is one good looking man.
LOL
I absolutely hate that the marines are having to go through this, and even more, I hate that the dems and press are loving it.
oh well blonds are my only type... yes Mr.FF is a green-eyed blond!
Never lonely on here for long!! Welcome, grab a stool if there is an empty one!!
