  Ghosts of Patton

Subject: Fw: From the ghost of General Patton



 

 

 


 





 


A Message from the ghost of General Patton….




ATTENTION!


 


OK you whining, panty-waisted, pathetic Maggots,
 it’s time for a little refresher course on exactly
why we Americans occasionally have to fight wars.


See if you can tear yourself away from your “reality”


TV and Starbucks for a minute, pull your head out


of your flabby ass – and LISTEN UP!!


 



 


 


THIS is not “torture” or an “atrocity”.
This is the kind of thing frat boys, sorority girls,
and academy cadets do to newcomers.





A little fun at someone else’s expense.


Certainly no reason to wring your hands or get
your panties in a wad.  Got that Kennedy?


 


 


 


 


 


THIS IS an atrocity!




 


 


 


So Was This!!!




 


WHICH PART DON’T YOU GET?


 


Islam a peaceful religion???


Millions of these sons-of-bitches are plotting as we speak to


destroy our country and our way of life any way they can.


Some of them are here among us now.  They don’t want


to convert you and don’t want to rule you.  You are a vile


infestation of Allah’s paradise.  They don’t give a shit how


"progressive" you are, how peace-loving you are, or how


much you sympathize with their cause.  They want you dead,


and think it is God’s will for them to do it.  And you think


Bush and Ashcroft are your worst enemies?


 


John Kerry thinks if he gives them a hug or listens to with


them, then they’ll like us…   and you agree?  You dumb ass!


 


If they manage to get their hands on a nuke, chemical agents,


or even some anthrax – you will wish to God we had hunted


them down and killed THEM while we had the chance.


Stop bitchin’ about your Goddamn Health Care, Social


Security, Gas prices, and your measly 6% unemployment rate…
and start worrying about you, your family’s, and your friends’


asses.  How many more Americans must be beheaded before


you stop blaming Bush for all your troubles – and grow some


balls for a change.

You’ve fallen asleep AGAIN, maggots!


And you may not get another chance!


 



 


 


NOW GET OFF YOUR SORRY ASS – and pass this on


to any and every person you give-a-damn about… if you


ever gave a damn about anything.


 


DISMISSED!

First of all, please read Captain Steve's March 2003 post from the battle around An-Nasariyah , as he explains why this matters. I'll wait.
Back? Good. I'm still updating this list, validating its links and accepting new submissions. I'd also forward this thought from regular reader "Klaatu". Maybe you want to consider sending one of these:
* Check this out from Stars and Stripes . This is a book I've sent several copies of to 'son of klaatu' to pass around in Iraq: " Modern Iraqi Arabic ," with 6 audio CDs. Or " Your First 100 Words in Arabic ," which is cheaper ($9.00), and has tear out flash cards with pronunciation.
* Armed Liberal and Winds of Change.NET have been working closely with Spirit of America . They're assisting the U.S. Marines deploying to the Sunni Triangle with toys and other helpful giveaways [ Fallujah report | A.L. becomes COO ].
