#1  Being forced to live the life of a native in Afghanistan would count as torture if assigned as punishment by a US court. Cruel and unusual and all that.

#2  As one commenter stated.

Excellent Rant!

Rush cites Elian Gonzalez doctrine on child illegals

#1  From the comments section

"PeoplesRepublicOfMd > JohninRedding •

Democrats have brainwashed these illegals to believe that it is only the Democrat party that cares about them. Same type of brainwashing Democrats have imposed upon bl#cks."

#2  So Rush, how did that Cantor campaign go for you? Maybe ask Laura Ingraham for some pointers?

CSM J.D.Pendry, US Army (Ret): The Sun Shall Rise.
Posted by: Besoeker || 06/11/2014 00:00 || Comments || Link || [12 views] Top|| File under:

#1  Pendry [with a 'D'], is author of The Three Meter Zone.
Posted by: Besoeker || 06/11/2014 3:14 Comments || Top||

#2  Point of order - the guy said he is retired U S Army. Plus USMC does not use the term CSM.

Anal? Perhaps but accuracy matters.
Posted by: Shiper Hupusoque9530 || 06/11/2014 6:30 Comments || Top||

#3  Not at all "anal," sloppy on the part a of senile old poster. My old noggin slipping a cog or two. Thanks for the correction. Good catch kind sir!

Perhaps a mod will delete the error.

#4  What title WOULD be accurate?
Posted by: Bright Pebbles || 06/11/2014 7:42 Comments || Top||

#5  Changed "CSM (R) J.D Pentry USMC: The Sun Shall Rise."
To
"J.D Pentry: The Sun Shall Rise."
Posted by: Bright Pebbles || 06/11/2014 7:43 Comments || Top||

#6  Thanks BP. Not sure how I did that one. As Hup indicated, CSM would be Army. But your fix is excellent. Thanks again.
Posted by: Besoeker || 06/11/2014 7:50 Comments || Top||

#7  Pendry now.
Posted by: Bright Pebbles || 06/11/2014 8:24 Comments || Top||

#8  Correct title would be:

SgtMaj. J.D. Pendry, USMC (ret.)
Posted by: Bangkok Billy || 06/11/2014 8:59 Comments || Top||

#9  As you command. The title is now "SgtMaj. J.D. Pendry, USMC (ret.): The Sun Shall Rise.".

#10  Each day His sun will continue to rise for America. It will shine brighter and brighter. What I know for certain is that evil cannot exist in the light.

#11  Thank goodness Bright Pebbles is on top of things today. Thank you, gentlemen, for your help in getting it right.

#12  Our Army deserter will live a long life, and every time someone hears his name someone else will say, isn't he that guy that deserted and Obama traded those guys for him? Those guys that killed Americans? He will live with this shame for the rest of his long life.

What I know for certain is that evil cannot exist in the light.

#13  You there Bergdahl. May you live forever.
Posted by: Leonidas || 06/11/2014 16:19 Comments || Top||

#14  I just had a thought about an odd parallel. Monica Lewinsky was in the news recently, probably just to get her out of the way now so she is not a pest to Hillary around the 2016 election - anyway, it appears that since the brouhaha years she has not had any gainful employement. Will we be looking at Bergdahl in years to come in a similar way? He is not likely to go to a firing squad but who would ever hire him and for what?
Posted by: warthogswife || 06/11/2014 17:46 Comments || Top||

#15  heh...

Isn't there a home somewhere for old, discarded, democratic persons like Monica, Cindy Sheehan, Sandra Fluke, and now Bergdahl?
Posted by: CrazyFool || 06/11/2014 17:51 Comments || Top||

#16  Title is wrong. USMC is not the service and SGM is not the rank.

Its CSM J.D.Pendry, US Army (Ret).

Check the link

Mods please fix. And yes it matters.

#17  Anyone else have any title changes?

#18  Anyone else have any title changes?

Gonna sell a car tomorrow, does that count?

#19  Barthelemy defeats Mendez.
Posted by: swksvolFF || 06/11/2014 20:30 Comments || Top||

#20  Aye.

#21  Anyone else have any title changes?

Yes. I'm now "Duke of the Laundromat-at-the-Center of The Universe.".

#22  Now that is some real.... spin.
