A Marines Opinion of the AP

I didn't write this and I do not know the Marine that did, but I think the lame stream media needs to listen very hard.

Disclosure for the following rant: I am a Marine.

So the AP decides to run this picture of Lance Corporal Joshua Bernard as he lay mortally wounded while his fellow Marines gave first aid–against the wishes of his family and protests from the Secretary of Defense Gates. (I will not link to it because I am a decent human being.) The AP’s statement they intended to publish “an image that conveys the grimness of war and the sacrifice of young men and women fighting it.” I’ve got something to convey to you, AP: FUCK YOU, you rotten pieces of liberal shit. You think you pussy-ass photographers with your long lenses have the right or responsibility to convey anything about the grimness of war? Maybe if you could pry your lips off Obama’s cock for a minute, you could actually do your job of informing the public. The average citizen knows we’re at war and that war is grim. Marines live the grimness of war.
