And maybe, just maybe the Marines were being polite and respectful. But wait,  you French wouldnt understand that...

Just for chits and giggles, imagine your response if those Marines HAD actually told Mr Ketchup to, uhhm, "shove it."  You know you would be one of the first to bash them for being mindless brainwashed republiclown right wing crazies...


Go ahead, have your lower opinion of the US combat tropps...

Btw look at the picture of Kerry and that Marine.

An image says a thousand words, and that image really captures the relationship between Kerry and the US armed forces right now.

This picuture is really devastating for Kerry. Which is good.

You don't have to have someone tell him. He knows what you posted. He's just so pitiful he feels the need to throw a little sissified tantrum and tell people who is on his ignore list. People who feel they must tell everyone who is on their ignore list almost always read it all anyway. They are just like little 5 year old children who put their hands over their ears and yell "LALALALALA" when someone says something they don't like and don't want to hear. A child only did that ONCE in my family. Never twice, the first lesson was enough.

Yea it is funny. He puts me on his ignore list because of this thread, suppsedly without even seeing what I posted.

Heck for all he knew I could have been been cheering him on with a fiesty:

You go Girl!

But no, it was not to be. C'est la vie...

I dunno, the Marines are 'first to go, last to know'....maybe they just haven't seen the latest Zogby poll.

You win some, you lose some.  Can't blame Kerry for trying or the Marines for voicing their opinions.

Finger pointing or, heaven forbid, tapping someone's chest is a very provoking gesture.   Kerry's advisors ought to tell him to never do that.

8 years of Clinton has already taught them how to swallow their pride so I'm sure they'll be up to the task, should the worst happen.

In this country, a soldiers duty is to follow the orders of the CIC, not some nutball senator.

My bad ,it's just your primitive language is lacking for subtil expression.

"I had an highter opinion of the Marines." != "I had an highter opinion of the Marines corp."

At least in my language it make sense and is very different , perhaps not in English.

There is no Marine Corps without Marines. In your language (well, in English actually) Straffo, how are the two different?

I dunno. Perhaps he's making a distinction between the institution and tradition of the Marine Corps and those folks that actually make up that institution. Or maybe he's only pointing out that a few Marines aren't representative of the whole Corps. Somethng like this Straffo?
