    --------------------------------
    News Anchor Dan Rather, NPR Reporter Cokie Roberts, and a U.S. Marine were
    hiking through the desert one day when they were captured by Iraqis. They
    were tied up, led to the village and brought before the leader.

    The leader said, "I am familiar with your western custom of granting the
    condemned a last wish. Before we kill and dismember you, do you have any
    last requests?"

    Dan Rather said, "Well, I'm a Texan so I'd like one last bowlful of hot,
    spicy chili." The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with
    the chili. Rather ate it all and said, "Now I can die content."

    Cokie Roberts said, "I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape
    recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe
    someday someone will hear it and know that I was on the job 'til the end."
    The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Roberts
    dictated some comments. She then said, "Now I can die happy."

    The leader turned and said, "And now, Mr. U.S. Marine, what is your final
    wish?"
    "Kick me in the ass," said the Marine.
    "What?" asked the leader. "Will you mock us in your last hour?"
    "No, I'm not kidding. I want you to kick me in the ass," insisted the
    Marine.

    So the leader shoved him into the open, and kicked him in the ass. The
    Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9mm pistol from
    inside his cammies, and shot the leader dead.

    In the resulting confusion, he leapt to his knapsack, pulled out his M4
    carbine, and sprayed the Iraqis with gunfire. In a flash, the Iraqis were
    dead, dying or fleeing for their lives.
    As the Marine was untying Rather and Roberts, they asked him, "Why didn't
    you just shoot them? Why did you ask them to kick you in the ass?"

    "What!?" said the Marine, "And have you liberal a**holes call ME the
    aggressor?"

    :rofl:

    The things in that video are taken way out of context; I found it to be quite comical.

    Why do you keep bringing up F/911?
     
  12. How can they be taken out of context? They are his own words. I could see if they had written the words from sentences but videos. When even the press ask him if he is flip flopping that should tell you something there. They have been very willing to give him a pass on several things.

    Well for example when he said he was for funding the troops and then the video says he voted no on the act to fund the troops. However, the video conveniently forgot to tell you that after the interview with Kerry the act was changed. Originally it was going to take money taxed from the rich to fund the troops, however; that part was taken out when it came time to vote. Acts aren't simply "lets give the troops x more dollars." There are tons of other parts included in the acts. The ads are misleading because they just tell you one part of the acts. For example they could say "Kerry voted no on save the cute puppies act" however the ad doesn't tell you that in the act the U.S. constitution is nullified and the U.S. becomes a communistic government.
     
  14. Now just tkae a 12 minute comercial spot in in late october early november and bam.
     
  15. this is why you leave politics out of friendly enviroments....
     
  16. Well i must say i actually found that rather interesting, i hadnt heard about the reason that he chose to vote against that act, and though it really dosent change my vote at all (i will vote against bush, and since the third party candidates are pointless, that means kerry), it is interesting to note.
