Is this the column? Haven't read it yet, but am loooking forward to it! Alas, no. Although this one is also a great laugh and a keeper.
I hope to have the one I remember in hand soon. I just ordered what purports to be a complete collection of her columns. Two copies: STET Dammit!, from the NRO Store.

There was a VERY interesting comment at the end of that clip, about how these women liked this Marine's look better with the "war paint" on him.
I wonder if these women considered all the "war paint" they wear on the set of their TV broadcast and how it makes them look better?

He may smoke 3 packs a day, but more importantly, he's smoking terrorists left and right.

Obsessive compulsive neat freak - get to the back of the line.
There are a lot of women out there who will be glad to wash his feet and work up to his face.
But you still get a grade for curiosity.

Fox News showed a picture of him "cleaned Up" earlier and the way they repeat stories, I'm sure you can catch it sometime today.
The "broken nose" look is probably because Fox said he played everykind of sport he could growing up.
I told my husband that if I were the Marlboro co. I would supply free smokes to him AND all of his buddies. He says he smokes 3 packs a day, but I bet not much makes his lungs while he is fighting.

"The Los Angeles Times article on the Marine and the photo said that "women are wanting to write him"..."
Yep..there's a difference between a 20 year old MAN and a 20 year old boy, and most instinctively women know it. If women mostly dated servicemen and veterans, after two or three generations the human race would evolve for the better, IMHO, of course.

Well... we all have to do our part in supporting the Kentucky tobacco farmers. I smoke about 3 packs a day myself. YEAHHHHHHHHH Kentucky!

That was why a lot of women changed to Republicans this year. Zell Miller's spit ball speech was the speech of a real man.
Also, the war has shown a whole generation of girls and women what REAL men look and act like.

I always did get a charge about General Patton basically saying that when
the war was over, his soldiers would get home and make copies of themselves!

"he smokes 3 packs per day according to the FNC report."WASTES 3 packs a day, is probably closer to the truth. I don't think those guys have TIME to really smoke that many cigarettes. It's one of the reasons I quit smoking: It's a terrible time-waster...

I'm sure there is some PC officer in his chain of command that is not please
he is smoking...in uniform.
That's probably true.
But for smoking during a stessful battle, someone should tell the PC officer to
take it up with The General.
