It is is amazing how the media goes out of it's road to block such places as FR from allowing their material in delivery of important things...but after listening to Mark Levin yesterday, one needs not wonder. In an interview with former SEAL member Marcus Lutrell, author of Lone Survivor, he summed it up perfectly in his commentary of the press/media. "Rather take on 150 taliban than the media".

Good grief, take a look at Lt. Murphy’s picture, he looks like something you would not want to go up against. He looks the very epitome of what most of us think about the SEALs.

Thanks for this post.

And, most of all, praise God for people like LT Murphy, as well as his comrades in arms.

It is men such as this that exhibit what our great country is all about.

Nice.....

Well, nothing convinces me we're right more than looking into the other side's thought processes.

The biggest shame is how little attention we as Americans give to our real heroes. It seems most people are more interested in what Tom Cruise at for breakfast.

If men like Lt. Murphy and his comrades were held forth as examples rather than the mob of barely literate entertainers and attention whores paraded before us every day, our country would be a hell of a lot better off.

I’ll gladly stand beside him in either fight.

One NY area newspaper thought this story about a NY Hero was not Newsworthy.

That’s putting it lightly...

But I know what you are thinking...

Just tuck it away somewhere for future usage...You won’t be alone...
