UPDATE: Reader David Ward writes:

Thank you for your great work and especially the coverage of the picture of the soldiers mocking "Jon Carry."

My daughter is on the far right in the picture. We spoke to her last night and again this morning. They are quite astounded at the coverage. They were furious at Kerry's remarks and wanted to do something. I guess they did.

Yours truly,

David Ward

Even my collegues who are NOT political junkies like me printed this photo off and even hung it on their doors and sent it to all their friends by email.

2 years of credits in chemistry and biology = 16.375 years of credits in sociology or journalism.

ROTFLMAO

Do you know which unit of the 34th ID this is?? Hubby was CO at HHC 1/168, way back about 1988. I heard the unit was from MN, but the 34th is from both IA and MN.

He also worked for IA STARC until 2001.

Outstanding! That picture is ringing the globe like a bell right now! A co-worker of mine, who is former military, commented that that photo is this generation's "Iwo Jima"!

Has any major newspaper in the US carried the picture yet?

I hope that every conservative who thinks the republican running in their state or district isn't pure enough.....to remember these young men and women risking their lives for us every minute of every day and gets out and VOTES republican. With pride and as a way of honoring these heroes.

The New York Post carried the picture today, with the headline "GIs Drop Smart Bomb on Kerry"

If that Photot hadn't hit Drudge, and then was FORCED to be picked up by Mainstream Media, Kerry would NEVER have Pseudo-apologised!

Is she had credits in underwater basket weaving or appreciation of piss jar art or sociology of homeless it would be a different thing.

Interesting to note that those fields seemed to expand explosively during the Vietnam War when people only interested in maintaining draft deferments took them up in college...the ones who couldn't hack chemistry, math, physics, etc.

No wonder so many schools are intensely leftist.

I sent it to drudge yesterday morning after seeing it on a local talk show hosts site and within 10 minutes, drudge had it up on his site. The rest is history. Drudge makes more news than the MSM now, that is why they fear him so much.

Only this time, the enemy is the most dangerous we have ever faced...
