WOUNDED IN BATTLE
A U.S. Marine squad was marching north of Basra when they came upon
an Iraqi terrorist, badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite
side of the road was an American Marine in similar but less serious
state.
The Marine was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to
both men, the squad leader asked the injured Marine what had happened.
The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along
the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent. We
saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road.
"I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein is a miserable, lowlife,
scumbag, and he yelled back that Senator Ted Kennedy is a
good-for-nothing, fat, left wing liberal drunk. So I said that Osama
Bin Ladin dresses and acts like a frigid, mean spirited woman!"
He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well so does Hillary Clinton!"
"And, there we were, standing in the middle of the road, shaking
hands, when a UN truck hit us."
