AS a former Marine, I must disagree with your use of this picture, which has been modified to express this vulgarity to whatever celebrity, politician, or whoever at the time said celebrity runs off at the mouth, bashes Bush, or makes a propoganda film as in the case with Michael Moore.

The majority of Marines are professionals and do not engage in this type behaviour. I understand there are those that do at times, but all entities have their bad apples.

However, modification (photoshop) of this picture to splash vulgarities at the "anti-Bush celebrity of the day" does nothing to further our cause nor preserve our image. And in this case with Whoopi, it only brings us down to her level.

So please, although I understand the sentiment, please refrain from the degradation of those professionals...the few, the proud...the Marines.

Semper Fi!

Thanks for saving me the trouble of making this point.
Another is the Marines can and will speak for themselves, they don't need anyone to put words in their mouths for them.
