#1 Thanks, BH, very impressive. Readers, be sure to pull down the "America's Marine Tour" from the menu for background info.

#2 It's already been broadcast. I saw it the other day during the Patriots game. Also commented on it to the 20 or so folks I was watching the game with who, of course, had no idea San Fran ever pulled that shit.
Thank you, MSM...

#3 Yeah, I saw it too, but didn't make the connection tu3031 did. Of course, the big bridge at the end could've been the Golden Gate, but you can't see the city at the other end of it.

#4 I first saw the ad during the game also - not ashamed to admit it it made me misty-eyed. Only later did I connect it with the SF filming BS. Makes the ad even more poignant, IMO.

#6 I'm sure the MSM will tag the lack of response to the next big one that hits Sanfran as 'Katrina Burnout' rather than 'if you think you're separate from the rest of us, you just do on your own' attitude that a lot of America is going to have. They'll never play that meme of 'why to they hate us' game on themselves. They're exempt. They're liberals.

#7 Peter Coyote is no better. Even seen any of his PBS environmental films? I remember one of them that had some kind of so called expert, said she was from the College of Minneapolis. Turns out she works at some podunk downtown community college.

Steve and Steph would make nice Dhimmis. Guess we could consider them ones already. To bad they both seem to be nice folk. Will never understand the hate liberals have for people who are willing to die to protect them. Madness.

#8 Could we draft Liberals only?
Set up a "special" Corps, (The pinko Pussies?) send them into combat as trained as possible,
It would give the most of them a wake up call, the others would just die.
Problem solved.

#9 I'm surprised noone has yet mentioned Heinlein's idea. No one gets to vote except military Veterans, (Including retirees, but NOT washouts or other failures)

Better yet - allow them set up the New Lincoln Brigade. All volunteer. They can pay for everything - arms, equipment, training - out of pocket. Or get the someone else to pay for it all.

Then let them deal with Darfur.

#11 From Sea to Shinning Sea..

Strong and Beautiful tribute to the Best,
The United States Marines!

~:)

If America ever needs intelligent dedicated warriors who are willing to put their lives on line to defend America and the US Constitution It will call The United States Marines.

If America ever needs a selfish narcissistic shit bird to crap on America It will call Stephanie Coyote.
