NO PUNCHES PULLED HERE

Insight of a Sergeant Major (The author, J.D. Pendry, is a retired Army Command Sergeant Major who writes for Random House.)

Jimmy Carter, you're the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You're the Runner-in-Chief.

Bill Clinton, you played "ring around the Lewinsky" while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia, and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses embolden the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately they grew bolder, until 9/11.

John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam. Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. You've accused our Soldiers of terrorizing women and in Iraq. You called Iraq "the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time"... the same words you used to describe Vietnam. You're a fake. You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did the Vietnamese. Iraq, like Vietnam, is another war that you were for, before you were against it.

John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we can't win militarily in Iraq. You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof. And said we should re-deploy to Okinawa. Okinawa, John? And the Democrats call you their military expert. Are you sure you didn't suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You're a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. You're not a Marine sir. You wouldn't amount to a pimple on a real Marine's ass. You're a phony and a disgrace. Run away John.

Dick Durbin, you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot who murdered two million of his own people after your party abandoned South East Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? See Dick run.

Ted Kennedy, for days on end you held poster-sized pictures from Abu Grhaib in front of any available television camera. Al Jazeera quoted you saying that Iraq's torture chambers were open under new management. Did you see the news this week Teddy? The Islamic Nazis demonstrate real torture for you again. If you truly supported our troops, you'd show the world poster-sized pictures of that atrocity and demand the annihilation of it. Your legislation stripping support from the South Vietnamese which led to a communist victory there. You're a bloated fool bent on repeating the same historical blunder that turned freedom-seeking people over to homicidal, genocidal maniacs. To paraphrase John Murtha, all while sitting on your wide, gin-soaked rear-end in Washington.

Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Hillary Clinton, Pat Leahy, Chuck Schumer et al ad nauseam. Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied. That the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers. That we should leave Iraq, you give the Islamic butchers - the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers - cause to think that we will run away again and all they have to do is hang on a little longer.

American news media, the New YorkTimes particularly. Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can't strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda is. Think about that each time you face Meccato admire your Pulitzer.

You are America's axis of idiots. Your collective stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on the hands of murdering terrorists. Don't ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam. If you want our Soldiers home, as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies. Yes, I'm questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with -self. I'm also questioning why you're stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don't deserve the protection of our men and women in uniform. You need to run away from this war and this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.

No Commander in Chief, you don't get off the hook either. Our country has two enemies. Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within. Your Soldiers are dealing with the outside force. It's your obligation to support them by confronting the axis of idiots. America must hear it from you that these people are harming our country, abetting the enemy and endangering our safety. Well up a little anger please, and channel it toward the appropriate target. You must prosecute those who leak national security secrets to the media. You must prosecute those in the media who knowingly publish those secrets. Our Soldiers need you to confront the enemy that they cannot. They need you to do it now.

Sergeants make the world run right. Without sergeants, the world would be one huge sh*thole.

There are so many things carter did to destroy the country picking on one failed action is like picking up sand one piece at a time to clean up a beach. There also are many more examples of his spineless life to pick from.

Roger that.

As former USAF ('62-'66), the deal was that if you wanted ANYTHING done, see the unit's senior NCO. They, are, indeed, the reason the services function at all.

My favorite in that area is Sgt. Major Basil Plumley. See the excellent film "We Were Soldiers" for who he is.

"Failure to do so -- by Bush 1, Clinton and Bush 2 --almost certainly assures that the enemy is NOW within the gates."

Actually, I fear our native-born, whose "contributions" were so well laid out in this article, far more than the illegals coming over from Mexico.

Ford was an honorable man who made the best of a difficult position, but his comment that there is no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe demonstrated an incredible lack of insight into international affairs. Maybe he would not have thrown the Shah under the bus, maybe he would have reacted decisively to the capture of our embassy. Since it didn't happen, we can't say. All we can say is that Three Mile Island is the symbol of the Carter presidency.

Great post--especially the emphasis given to the democrats' collective efforts to undermine our war efforts--by REPEATEDLY giving encouragement and 'aid-and-comfort' to our enemies.

It's absolutely OUTRAGEOUS that our so-called MSM (who is also complicit in the democrats anti-US rhetoric) allows them to get away with it with such little discussion and attention. Outrageous, absolutely OUTRAGEOUS.

And to think that the democrats did so well in this last election. Unbelievable.

You forgot Ronald Reagan, who signed the first and, so far, only amnesty for illegal aliens in our history.

You also forgot every president going back to George Washington, because our bordes have been wide open from the get-go.

You also seem to forget that history did not begin with Bush 41, who was in office from Jan. 1989 to Jan. 1993.

But hey...don't let me burst your bubble.

We flew into an Air Force base and stayed overnight.

At breakfast in the officer's mess, the chef - yes I said "chef" - asked me how I wanted my eggs - scrambled or over easy. I thought we had landed in a four star restaurant.

I asked if he could make an omelet. The chef inquired if I wanted a two or three egg omelet and what kind of cheese I would like in the omelet. I was wrong - we had landed in heaven.

That was the best breakfast I ate in my career.

An excellent (and well deserved) rant!

I've passed this on to my conservative buddies.

A CSM's job is to sort the flyshit from the pepper and get things done. Seems to me that this old troop hasn't lost the touch.

He did confront the terrorists -- he sent the military to kill them.

The mission was obviously planned by politicians and stood no chance. These brave men were sent to their death.

The military rescue mission was the correct thing to do. You don't agree?

A properly planned and executed mission would have been the correct thing to do.

You want to nitpick because it failed? Be my guest.

My being correct and you being wrong doesn't mean that my statements are nitpicking.

But do it without me.

Not a problem. If you don't think that Carter is spineless then we have nothing further to discuss.

Outstanding! Welcome aboard. We are truly blessed to have so many currently active and veteran servicemen and servicewomen in our midst.

God bless you all, best wishes for the new year, and thank you all for your service to our country.

"The mission was obviously planned by politicians"

Why? Because it failed? Tell me what's so "obvious" about it.

You don't know. You don't have a clue.

Do a little research.

You will be amazed at how little you know of the "rescue".

Why? I've already made my point -- you've agreed the military rescue mission was the correct thing to do. Authorizing such a mission is contrary to a "lack of spine".
