For those who'll have trouble reading the fine print, I'll summarize. This is Chief Master Sergeant John Gebhardt, and the girl he's holding is the only survivor of a family methodically executed by terrorists in Iraq. They shot her in the head, too.
If the Dems win tomorrow...well, I'll let Freeper El Gato tell ya, as he put it in this thread:
Cut and run Kerry, and his buddy Bug Out Murtha would leave this little girl to the tender mercies of the human garbage that killed her family.
BTW, a USAF CMSgt is very high ranking NCO (E9). Equivalent to Army SgtMajor, Navy Master Chief Petty Officer, Marine Master Gunnery Sgt. It's a sure bet that he has plenty of other things to do and many responsibilities. But still he gives up his valuable sack time to calm this little girl, allowing her to get the rest she needs to speed her recovery.
Quite frankly, I think the Rats have given us millions of reasons to vote GOP this election, and there are a mess of positive reasons to vote for this House caucus, such as their fight against the McCain Amnesty Plus bill. But this one reason is enough. Pelosi and Reid will abandon the two people in this photo, leaving one to Al Qaeda and the other dazed on the floor after they pull the rug out for the second time in a little over 30 years. They will let John Murtha and John Kerry decide how this all ends. But we can stop them.
This one's a must win, ladies and gentlemen. It's broken glass time. Git R Done!
America! America! God shed His Grace on thee,
And crown thy good with brotherhood from sea to shining sea!
The US Military Forces: "Bringing mercy to the victims of the merciless".
What a sweet photo! Marines have many skills, but somehow I doubt that Chief Master Sergeant John Gebhardt learned to open his heart this way out on the firing range :-)
BTTT
Thanks, Mr. Silverback! Not that we need motivation around here ... but what a sweet picture.
I only wish I could do more! I have a Republican Congresswoman in a safe seat, no Senate election in my state, and my state rep and state senator are unopposed.
I'll be out at the polls campaigning for Republican state judges, but nothing that affects the national picture will happen here.
BTTT
Bump & Thanks

This alone should get people up off the backside and out to vote.
Voter #14 this morning!
I voted within half an hour of the polls opening. I was #37 and had to stand in line. Very unusual for a midterm election.
Support the troops, support our Commander-in-Chief, support our country, support freedom...VOTE for the candidates that support them!
Wild horses nor terrorists could keep me (and mine) from the polls today. My immediate family represents 8 registered CONSERVATIVE voters.
Get out and do it, people.
Great story. Thanks for the ping.
No better friend - no worse enemy
I got up extra early and voted - straight Republican
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!!
VOTE!!!
Oops, I guess that's the Marines motto, not the air force
Sorry, my dad was Navy
