Response from a retired state trooper & a former marine.....
“COMMON SENSE”
Folks:
Now here’s the guy! If all of the current candidates continue to attack each other, and no single candidate evolves from the process, perhaps Colonel West could be “drafted” from the floor of the convention. Let’s see: He is a combat veteran and career military; he is currently involved in politics; he has a charisma that can rival the current occupant of the White House; he appears to be a bold, no nonsense, classic American leader; and he has common sense! Uh Ohh! Common Sense.
Never mind.
Thanks friend! I really like Sandy too, and had the honor or meeting her back in 2010.
Also, thank you for your service to our country!

Sarge (or Sir) You are exactly right. I am so sick of these cry baby liberals who never served a day in a combat situation trying to tell the rest of us how our soldiers should be ashamed.
When I first heard it, my first thought was thank GOD there were no cameras (or very few) when I was in. then my next thought was there were only 4 where were the rest?
Leon Peternose what a cry baby dork in charge of our GREAT men & women of the finest military EVER.
Hitlery Rodman Klintoon. Nothing good ever came out of her mouth except maybe Good Bye
“I agree WE NEED ALLEN WEST IN THE NEW ADMINISTRATION!!!!!!!
Preferably in the Oval Office.”
Copy that, Angel
AMEN!
thanks! this whole thing makes me so mad on so many levels...now these Marines will face punishment.HUH?!!!
You know I support our military, but imho, West spoke way out of turn. He did not help the marines in any way. This was not a crime just an act of stupidity and non judicial punishment is way over the top. He also did not help the men left in the fiield or their Sergeants to maintain good order and discipline.

No punishment would be my choice.
And I still would like to know WHO shot the video and then proceeded to post it on the net!
Every copy I have seen is so blured it is rather difficult to tell if the guys are peeing or praying.
Folks, I hope you pick up your phone today on behalf of Dana Loesch and our Marines. In my call to Mr Tillman's office today, I have asked that he apologize to Dana Loesch today.
Until Mr Tillman puts some boots on and goes over and stands in a war zone, that gives all the rights to the enemy, he needs to do as Col West said, Shut the hell up! But what does he do, he throws under the bus a good and loyal woman who defends our Troops! I wonder if Mr Tillman, as he sits in his Ivory Tower, ever contemplates what it is like for our Marines, who have done an exemplary job keeping his little self safe!
Dana Loesch deserves our support and so do our Marines! Mr Tillman needs to issue an apology to Ms. Loesch today. We all make mistakes! Walk this back Mr Tillman and do the right thing. Stand for our Troops and those who defend them!

PING TO POST #71!
Let’s pick up our phones TODAY and support Dana Loesch and our troops!
We who love our military will continue to support other patriots like Dana Loesch who always join us in praise of our brave soldiers. Adding a ping to post # 71!
The only problem I have with the whole thing, is that they shouldn’t have let themselves be photographed. That just wasn’t smart.

This from Andrew Gasser, Veteran and member of Illinois Tea. His comments are spot on with regard to Illinois Policy Institute:
http://andrewgasser.com/?p=235&mid=57
“For those of you who have served in Afghanistan, like myself, you may have witnessed the brutality of women if you went outside the wire. Media pundits like to say that women if Afghanistan are treated like second class citizens. They are not. The family mule gets better treatment than women. Women in Afghanistan have no rights. Moreover, if it wasnt for organizations like the United States Marine Corps, women (girl) wouldnt even be allowed to attend school
This makes the Illinois Policy Institute decision even more puzzling. Why would you kick to the curb a strong female conservative who is incredibly successful and a role model for girls and women everywhere? She is effectively pissing all over the ideology that the taliban and al Qaida promote. Instead of celebrating the achievements of a strong conservative woman the Illinois Policy Institute hung her out to dry and scurried away like cockroaches in daylight. Frankly, we need our young women in America to hear more from strong women like Dana.”
God Bless Andrew for his service and as noted above, so typical of our Veterans, he keeps on serving!
That is a question I want the answer to! WHO SHOT THE VIDEO? Wouldn’t that be interesting to know? Certainly none of the Marines filmed it and then proceeded to post it on YouTube!
I also would like to see a CLEAR version of the video. One that isn’t so blured you can’t tell if they were actually peeing or praying!
I always go back to the same question. WHO shot the video?
