Any comparisons to Hitler are appropriate.

1. Except Adolf wouldn't have started in with the fake tears right away.
I think he got that bit from Jimmy Swaggart, actually.

54. my jaw literally dropped when I watched that
To be fair, it's a photo shoot and not a "Broadcast News" kind of fake crying.

But still. How could anybody admire somebody who uses his tears as a schtick? And his behavior during the photo shoot makes it really clear that he knows it's a schtick. Would Beck's adopted spiritual brother Martin Luther King pose with fake tears running down his face? And mug for the camera and laugh about it between takes?

13. Those are his "they love me, they really love me" tears.
But they are absolutely fake as far as what he claims they are for. This guy just can't get over himself.

They're grooming us to support more war profiteering and the military industrial complex. It's also worth noting that's always been the core of the GoP; war and oil.

11. Here's my old Saved file on LUTRELL
Wingnuts, both male and female, just LUERVE them 6 foot 5 inchers who are HEROES, and it is well known that the definition of "hero" is "Librul hater." All the Freep gals AND GUYS went ga-ga over him on all their media outlets, and you could see "THREESOME" on their faces as they informed us, "AND HE HAS A TWIN!1"

Well, in his first go round on the scene, during his book tour, he said he had made a humanitarian choice because he gave in to "Liberal" slop thinking. Or maybe his "Christian soul," so Christianity is therfore slop thinking? One of those two.

So Glen BECK, who back then spent three days straight interviewing LUTTRELL, frequently near breaking down and gasping, "I love you to death, man," --oh, and, uh, ALL of the troops, even if they aren't six foot and five and don't have a twin!1

So BECK played a 911 call where LUTTRELL was chasing Libruls, or Mexican illegal aliens--SAME THING--- who shot his dog Daisy, whose name's letters each stand for one of his dead comrades. The two 911 female operators both told him to stop "traveling at 110 m.p.h." while sort of encouraging him to keep on, or giving in to his Navy SEAL unstoppability.

So, Libruls will be re-bashed for the rest of today and into the Christian weekend.

But isn't Wikipedia amazing?!1 They already had the dog shooting incident!1

Marcus Luttrell


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

.... The four SEALs stumbled upon a small group of goat herders whom they considered to be Taliban sympathizers, but the SEALs were unable to verify any hostile intent. Luttrell claims that Murphy, the officer in charge of the SEAL team, put the fate of the goat herders to a vote. Axelson voted to kill the Afghanis, and Dietz abstained. Murphy told Luttrell that he would vote the same as him so with his vote it was decided to free the herders.

This account is emphatically denied by Murphy’s father, Daniel Murphy. He claims that his son would have never have put such a decision to a vote and that Luttrell told him a different account when he spoke to him, "He said that Michael was adamant that the civilians were going to be released, that he wasn’t going to kill innocent people," said the elder Murphy, "Michael wouldn’t put that up for committee. People who knew Michael know that he was decisive and that he makes decisions." The herders were subsequently released and disappeared over the mountain ridge. Luttrell believed they immediately betrayed the team's location to local Taliban forces and within an hour, the SEALs were engaged in an intense gun battle against a force of more than 150 enemy fighters.

In the ensuing battle, the rest of Luttrell's SEAL team were killed. Team leader Michael P. Murphy was awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions in the battle. ....

In 2008, he spoke at the Celebration of American Values Forum at the National Rifle Association's annual convention.

Attacked at home

On April 5, 2009, four teenage males approached Luttrell's property and fatally wounded his dog, Dasy, with a .357 Magnum revolver at approximately 1 A.M. Each letter of the name "Dasy" represents one of the fallen members of his team. She was given to him in recovery to help him through rehabilitation.

Luttrell proceeded to follow the individuals through four counties in his truck -- apparently armed with two .9 mm Berettas -- until Texas Rangers apprehended the individuals. Upon arrest, the suspects verbally threatened Luttrell's life and taunted him. Alfonso Hernandez was arrested on-scene and charged with animal cruelty whilst Michael Edmonds has not yet been charged. On April 7, he turned himself in, was booked, and posted his bail. The other two individuals were not charged. The males are believed to also be behind the killings of other neighborhood canines.

http://shadowspear.com/vb/showthread.php?t=5005

"It was the stupidest, most southern-fried, lamebrained decision I ever made in my life," Luttrell writes. "I must have been out of my mind. I had actually cast a vote which I knew could sign our death warrant. I'd turned into a (expletive) liberal, a half-assed, no-logic nitwit, all heart, no brain, and the judgment of a jack rabbit." ....

Marcus Luttrell made the wrong decision. He was thinking like a liberal instead of a military officer. ....

In war every death of a military service member is a public event. Liberal influence has made difficult decisions nearly impossible to get right. Liberals have put our military in a no-win situation.
Losing is what liberals want.

And now these same self-loathing liberals do not want a memorial of Navy Seal Dietz with his automatic weapon.

Too violent.

Happy 4th of July.

SEAL's father: Survivor's book dishonors son's memory


Father of Patchogue's Lt. Michael P. Murphy says new account of death is a 'disservice' to slain men

BY MICHAEL ROTHFELD

.... In the book, Luttrell, who was subordinate to Murphy on the team, casts himself as the decisive player in the drama, writing that he cast the deciding vote to release the herders. He says he was torn between his "warrior's soul" that favored an "ice-cold military decision to execute these cats," and his "Christian soul ... crowding in on me." ....According to the book, Murphy was against killing the herders not out of moral considerations but seemingly selfish ones. He quotes Murphy as saying, "The U.S. liberal media will attack us without mercy." We will almost certainly be charged with murder." ... ....

WHAT THE FATHER WAS TOLD: Murphy made clear to the others that killing the shepherd, a noncombatant, to ensure his silence was not an option. "You know what, we are not murderers," he told the three other SEALs. "We're not just going to kill someone." They would spare the herder and take their chances.

Copland assigned all of his copyrights to the Aaron Copland Fund for Music.

It gives over a million dollars every year to support performing ensembles and composers of all kinds throughout the entire country.
