In addition to the relief workers, we routinely get tasked with hauling around reporters and various low-level “VIPs,” which further wastes valuable helo lift that could be used to carry supplies. We had to dedicate two helos and a C-2 cargo plane for America-hater Dan Rather and his entourage of door holders and briefcase carriers from CBS News...

Bunch of good-for-nothing prissy prima donnas.

WHY are WE helping anti-America POS Rather do anything other than tossing his fraudulant @ss overboard?

What a bloody bunch of ingrates.

The sooner we get rid of the stinkin' U.N. the better off we'll be.

I guess the UN was looking for kickbacks and didn't get any. Next try, extortion through lip.

Gad, I can't stand the UN. The idea that our tax dollars pay for these cretins is more than I can bear.

You'd think the guy would understand that bad mouthing the US on a carrier full of our military isn't a smart move, but I had already deduced that he wasn't the sharpest card in the deck.

This really makes me angry.

I want to send this to the CEO of my company and his jerk of an administrator. When I wrote to ask if they were doing anything for our troops since they seem to be going overboard to tell me how to donate my own money, they said "No, we are not." So, I'm choosing to tell them to "stick it" in my own little ways.

Now this just backs up how jerky the people at the UN really are. Maybe this note should be forwarded to President Bush at the Whitehouse.

Mail this to FOX. It should be a class A-1 embarrassment to the jackanape who dissed the service.

It should also be a reminder to the UN as to just who exactly is footing the bill for their mismanagement.

Someone call the Fraud Waste and Abuse hotline.

When our wardroom treasurer approached the leader of the relief group and asked him who was paying the mess bill for all the meals they ate, the fellow replied, “We aren’t paying, you can try to bill the U.N. if you want to.”

Arrogant presumptuous bastards! Must be "old Europeans".

At that point I would have put him and his fellow parasites on on last helicopter trip to deepest Aceh province...

My son was stattioned on the Lincoln on it's previous tour of duty ("Mission Accomplished!"), he still is in touch with some of the guys on the Lincoln. When I saw this, I asked him to send it to one of his friends and here is the response he received (edited just to protect the identity of the writer):

yeah, maybe we all felt a little bit pissed at the cocky UN people, but we were all damn proud to be there, and to do what we were doing. this was a real guy, I should know, I helped (deleted) . hehehehe, (deleted) has it's perks!

so, yeah, he is a LT, and who else but somebody who's ego would be totally bruised by this because it made him totally worthless- none other than a stick jockey, yeah, some pilots are cool, but some of them are total fuckin tools, and this guy was one of them, yeah (deleted track him down, and he had alot to say about it, and I (deleted), but he is done now, guess what his little tantrum got him? yeah, an early trip back to Lemoore. he's been "grounded" funny huh!

So the story is true.
