Law: American heroes are arraigned for allegedly punching a terrorist in wartime. What happens to Tiger Woods isn't vital to our country's future. What happens to Matthew McCabe, Julio Huertas and Jonathan Keefe is.
People are more likely to recognize the names of Tiger's alleged bimbo eruptions than the names of these three Navy SEALs we sent into battle. They are not household names in a nation consumed with Climate Gate, the public option and the antics of billionaire athletes.
An administration consumed with apologies has said the architect of 9/11's massacre, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, must be given all the constitutional rights and privileges of the Americans he murdered. Our justice system, we are told, must be an example to the world, as if that will impress jihadists making IEDs in some faraway hideout.

I respect your family history and nothing you say will change that.
With that being said, you are way off base. This is about turn seals, not about you.
TURD seals. Sorry, the spell check gets me every time.
You seem to know the facts so fill us in.
Its in the press (and not just the MSM). All you have to do is look.
You don’t know any of the “FACTS” or were you there?
Just a minor comment. “Elite of the elite” is extremely relative to the one making the assertion. Green Berets, Rangers, Force Recon and pretty much every guy in Delta Force is just as elite as any SEAL. And this deification of them is disturbing. I have known a few in my day and they dont all speak 5 languages, dodge bullets matrix-style, and leap tall buildings. Some of them drink too much beer. Some smoke too much. And they certainly are not above temptation. One SEAL was kicked out a few years ago for stealing a knife (search FR). Another was bounced out for disrespecting a superior officer.
That said, I do believe these particular SEALs are getting the raw end of the deal.
You don’t know any of the “FACTS” or were YOU there? Be careful with who or what you partner with, the truth usually comes out eventually....
Navy Seals captures the most wanted terrorist in Iraq and gives him a bloody lip. I tell that is just horrible.
Are we there to win this war or not!
I damn sure not going to partner with the terrorist!
Giving the bad guys what’s coming is not what this is about. Of course we are there win. And winning we are doing. To suggest otherwise is UNPATRIOTIC, Kempo!.
By the way I applauded the people who water boarded too.
Thank you for your service.
Water boarding is much ado about nothing. So what?
Unbelievable. SEALs are caught being turds and everyone on Free Republic is right there defending them...because they are...”seals.” Anyone who defends these guys should really examine their values
The finding of guilt is for their board. Facts are facts. You demonstrate the way of the Bolshevik with your post (and your “frogginess”)..
In your prior post you called them turds, Why did you find it necessary to call them names? Do you have a background or significant research and study in fecal material?
As to your Bolshevik comment, you may want to take some time and read “The Black Book of Communism” it may provide you with some clarity(it is 800 pages with very few pictures) as to what they did.
Lastly as to my froggieness, in a former life I flew CH-46’s in the Marines, they were nicknamed “phrog’s”
There is no need to be mean here.
So is a bloody lip.
Kempo, you have turned out to be a waste of time, but funny; a wash.
Firstly, thank you for correcting my grammer when quoting me.
Secondly, It is appropriate in this case despite the pr campaign, and, no.
Thirdly, I have plenty on my bookshelf re this topic...because its what we may be fighting in the next three to five years.
Fourthly, fantastic.
Lastly, I agree. The CH-46 is thin-skinned.
