Bump.
Picking up the trash, one piece at a time.
Remember this one from two weeks ago?

You won’t read much about this in the MSM - “if it bleeds, it leads” still applies. But this sort of thing is what will do the job. Kudos to all involved.
Excellent.
Time to make him talk the old fashioned way.
Semper Fi’

Doubtful that he is who he says he is.
Nothing to see here, no al Qaeda here, move along.
Looks like the Defeatocrap’s surge for surrender in Iraq is failing.
But-but-but there IS no al-Qaeda-in-Iraq....
Al-Qaeda in Iraq was always a disinformation tactic by the Bush Administration, wasn’t it?
(Do I HAFTA include the < /sarcasm > tag?)
Bad Boys, Bad Boys, whatcha gonna say when the [U.S.] Marines nab yer boo-tay?
Agreed.
Ship him to Pelosi’s office and then he can visit with Reid. Birds of a feather so to speak.
“Doubtful that he is who he says he is.”

Possibly. But hey, he’s one less bomber anyone has to deal with. That’s ok by me.
Bravo to the Special Ops.
Getting better every day

Something about them standing up and our guys standing down? Nah, couldn't be.
I was just thinking up a little ditty on the spot...but I can switch around some of the lyrics if you feel it's more appropriate.
And I'm so glad that it is the People of the Land between the Rivers who are standing up more and more to deliver the KO's to the Jihadists.
