Marine Corporal From A Bunker In Ramadi: “I Got A Message For That Douche Harry Reid”

April 23rd, 2007 Posted By Pat Dollard.

A view from OP Horea, “Most Dangerous Spot On Earth”, Downtown Ramadi. I no shit watched several terrorists die, on several different days, on this small strip of asphalt. We also took many IED strikes on it. This photo is from Corporal Rock.

Today, from Corporal Tyler Rock in an outpost in downtown Ramadi. His first sentence is in response to an email from me:

“yeah i know how you feel. its going to be very weird leaving this place and going back to america. weve been here for almost an entire year and have lived in the center of it the whole time. its crazy that when we got here it was so hectic and now its calmed down so much. so it was awesome to be able to see that turn out.

yeah news worth reporting…. well ramadi was once dubbed by everyone as the worst city in the world. but we have done such a great job here that all the families in the area have worked with us on driving out the insurgency and that we work directly with the IA and the IP’s. the city has been cleaned up so well that the IP’s do most of the patrols now and we go out with them to hand out candy and toys to the children. you can tell that the people want us here to protect them from the thugs and gangs (insurgents). granted they would rather have peace and quit but they know that if we arent here they will be thrown around by the insurgents. a good example is this one mission we did. long story short we got blown up in multiple buildings and had to run into a families house. i spent my christmas holidays covered in ash from the mortar fire and the IED’s, sleeping under a dirty rug i found in the house. everyone was sleeping way to close for comfort just to stay warm. anyways. a family was there and they obviously didnt want us there. atleast at first. the daughters were very sick so our corpsman treated them. they didnt have electricity so we got them a generator for power, they were cold so we got them gas heaters, we got them food and water and then we gave them $500. by the end of the week long visit with them we were drinking tea with them. when we left we cleaned their house better than it was when we got there. i even have pictures with the family. they told us that they liked marines and they would help us as much as they could and they gave us some information on the insurgents in the area. we ended up catching a HUGE target down the road from there house because of it.

Part Of A Weapons Cache Seized Recently In Fields Next To What Used To Be An Insurgent Claimed Hospital. Thanks To 1/6, The Insurgents Don’t Claim It Anymore. Zarqawi Had Reportedly Been Treated There.

yeah and i got a qoute for that douche harry reid. these families need us here. obviously he has never been in iraq. or atleast the area worth seeing. the parts where insurgency is rampant and the buildings are blown to pieces. we need to stay here and help rebuild. if iraq didnt want us here then why do we have IP’s voluntering everyday to rebuild their cities. and working directly with us too. same with the IA’s. it sucks that iraqi’s have more patriotism for a country that has turned to complete shit more than the people in america who drink starbucks everyday. we could leave this place and say we are sorry to the terrorists. and then we could wait for 3,000 more american civilians to die before we say “hey thats not nice” again. and the sad thing is after we WIN this war. people like him will say he was there for us the whole time.
and for messages back home. i have a wife back home who is going through a tough time. i just cant wait to be back home and see everyone. haha and i cant wait to go back home and get some starbucks. i love it when those people serve me. hahaha”

    Cpl. Rock, thank you for your service. You and your fellow Marines are doing great things, and you are making America proud. You are right about Reid, too. The majority of the Democrats are treasonous, back-stabbing, America-hating weasels. Please stay safe, watch yourself over there and thank you again for your sacrifices.

  2. johnF

    Cpl. Rock, you rock. Thank you for your service. America, Iraq, and the world owes you a debt of gratitude. To paraphrase a truly great leader, only once before has so much been owed to so few, the proud, by so many. I spent some time working with Marines from the 26th MEU recently, and I have nothing but respect for all of you, especially Sgt. Patrick Wilhelm. Next time I’m at Starbucks, I hope I see a Marine, because I’ll be the one buying.

    Semper Fi Cpl. Rock. Ooh-Rah, Alpha Co. one six, 1962 here. We (the sane people in this country) support you 100%, :beer: :beer: :beer:

  4. mindy abraham

    Good job guys-keep it up. I respect the military highly :smile: :beer:

  5. TWarrior

    It leads me to the simple question of how do these defeatists live with themselves?

    Thanks Cpl. Rock, and Gods speed!!

  6. David

    Godspeed Cpl. Rock! Thanks for your great work and your service to our country. We greatly appreciate what you and your comrades have done for us all.

    I don’t know if you saw this or not, but Jeff Foxworthy gave a fantastic presentation during the Country Music awards that everyone should see. Here is a link:

    Thank you for our Marines and Soldiers who keep us safe, and keep us from having to fight the thugs here in the USA. We’ll do everything we can for you from our side, keeping the pressure up on the Congress and Senate.

    E-mail Messages for Harry Reid…

    Harry Reid has rightfully been pummeled since he decalred defeat last week. Even the oily Charles Schumer backpedaled somewhat from Reid Sunday….

    Having the fascists being rebutted by the Service Men and Women in theater can effect the mainstream of America.

    Pictures are worth a thousand words, and since an actual thousand words do not fit into the short attention span theater we call network news it would be great if the service men and women in theater could create some images that give your comments re the facts on the ground. Email them to blogs and national and local stations. The media PR war is a war that needs to be won. I have friends (sort of now) that I thought had independent thought but some now spout shit because they saw pictures of bad things.
    The MSM almost or never show positive images and stories stateside, and that includes the mistakenly lauded fox news.
    A picture is worth a thousand words.

    This made the rounds into national coverage:

    Pat,
    Thanks again for another example of our fantastic Marines. To all of you in the Armed Forces; Thank you! You are the best that America has to offer and my family and I are extremely proud of you. It is not the creeps protesting that the MSM likes to show that represent this great country, it is all of you. You are doing a great and noble job so that all of us back here can be safe. Your sacrifice is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    The war is lost — [Foreign and Domestic - in Iraq]
    …we are winning the war, though you would never know it from what the media reports. Here in my room, I have a small TV that stays perpetually on the AFN news channel. CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, and Fox are all represented. Yet from none of these news sources have I heard even a peep about the fact that the Coalition yesterday announced the transfer of security responsibilities of the 4th Iraqi province to the Iraqi government.
    …So you might ask how we can be winning the war when all you see on TV news is reports of bombings and death squads and such. The answer is simple. All of those reports come out of Baghdad itself. There are no reporters out here in the provinces. In nearly 13 months, I have seen one reporter here at Al Asad, and that was a gentleman from 60 Minutes who has been following our brigade from training through deployment to Iraq.
    The name of this blog comes from the oath I swore when I enlisted in the Army. I will support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, …

    Not that I live near one of two largest AF bases in the US and the largest B-52 base in the US (Barksdale), but Starbucks has finally opened up out here (in three locations). Since Katrina wacked New Orleans, and due to big Louisiana tax breaks, Hollywood has been filming and flaunting around town with smug looks on their faces.

    While we patron SBUX daily, in uniform, actually doing stuff for this country…a smug little POS, a Barrista feels it necessary to define himself with a bumper sticker stating, “Welcome to Iraq, the 51st State” and “Don’t be fooled by the Govt.” which pisses me off more than the former.

    Since Starbucks is gay/tranny/lesbian/liberal friendly, “Hey lets all get along and love each other,” then why in the hell should it be OK for me to be pissed off (offended) because some POS thinks we (I) don’t have any honor, integrity, or trustworthiness because I work for the government? Most of the frustration comes from the illegality of actually wiping the floor with him.

    Or should I really be bothered? He is after all a little bitch serving me coffee.

    CLL

  14. Sharkbait

    Harry Reid is a Punk Ass! and the SBUX bitch is just that. Stay strong Marines!
    No worries!!

    SB

  15. Dbo

    I worked for SBUX for a while after I was medically restricted from deploying (a wicked case of mono) for my anticipated third tour in Iraq as a reservist.

    Since I had planned to be in Iraq for a year, and now found myself with a shit ton of free time a no job, I picked up a side job at Starbucks.

    I quit after a month when after befriending a regular who came in every morning, and he asked me about my life, I told him I was an Iraq vet and was hoping to be in Iraq again right now.

    He threw his straw at me disgusted at then stormed out like a little bitch, probably pissed off he now had to find a new starbucks to go to because he couldnt stand the thought of actually liking or being served by a “baby killer” or some shit.

    I no longer wanted to be around those kind of people, although the actual 60’s generation hipppies who came there and worked there liked me a lot and we had respectful conversations about Iraq and politics in general.

    It turns out this same guy hosts a weekly poetry reading/ competition/ and open mic I attended for three weeks.

    The third week I read a piece about all the good shit I did in Iraq, as a civil affairs marine, and how I was mistreated by ignorant americans when I returned. I specifically pointed him out and then took my leave never to return again.

    Fuck that guy.

  16. Greg - USA

    Cpl. Rock… thank you, and everyone, for your service to the greatest country on Earth! We need to get more stories, and pictures, like this and spread it around. I will be sending this to everyone I can.

    AMERICA - FUCK YEA!

  17. Iacobus

    Ooo-rah, DevilDogs! :grin: Awesome email, Pat.

    Dbo: Mr. Latte is fucking lucky I wasn’t there when the threw his straw at you. I would have reduced his ass to tears by the time I got done with him.

    Wish I could have been there at the poetry competition. The look on his face must have been priceless. :lol:

  18. Pavdog

    Great posts.. you made Drudge even!

    Keep the faith Marine! We aren’t all liberal pusses back home.

  19. Tom

    Thanks Corporal. Every time I hear one of those poisonous democrats speak I’m ashamed to think of them as leaders of this great country.
    To you and all the other soldiers over there I pray for you each day. You all make me proud!

    dude, since you read it, you must have a copy of it, hopefully in digital format. Post it here!! Or on a blog and post a link or something — would love to know about the whole incident.

  21. Steve S.

    Congratulations on your work. As ex airforce Intel. 64 to 68 I feel frustrated as hell with the Democrats. Can not believe the cut and run attitude. We lost in vietnam because of people like Reid. Well you and I know that if we pull out we will be fighting it on the streets here.
    Stay Safe

  22. JBM

    Jamal, should the Iraqis have a chance to be as dumb as you and speak freely against their gov’t? Are you superior to the Iraqis that only you deserve the right to express your opinion openly without fear of retribution? Regardless of whether it was right in the first place, leaving would be a disaster for these people. Perhaps you’ve read about places where we ran like Somalia or Iraq last time. I suspect you think some people are more worthy of saving then others, like Sudan. Since you’re not there and haven’t a clue other than through the eyes of the media, I suggest you think critically about who is being brainwashed by whom.

    In the meanwhile, thank you Cpl. Rock and all those serving!

  23. Mike

    You and other men and women are doing a great job god bless all and dont worry about the back stabbing there time will come in time and true americans will be put in office that support people such as yourself.

  24. Adam

    Just got to your site via the Drudge website. You have hit the big time. I’m just a civilian and I never send comments out but I had to today.

    Thank you so very much for your service and your families sacrifice. I can’t begin to tell you how much it means to me and my family that there are brave Americans like you who are willing to do what you do. You are appreciated, respected and valued as the finest our great nation can offer. Keep up the good work and remember that most of us here at home support you and the rest of our troops even if the media would have you beleive otherwise.

  30. Sandee Enriquez

    Jamal? Yes…let’s walk away and allow extremists to take Iraq. Think the Iraqis lives will improve? Uh huh. Ignore Somalia and Darfur, too. Nothing worth American lives there either. And while we Americans are at it…let’s also remove all armed and uniformed personel from all of our inner cities. After all…..we’re not winning there either. Why risk our blood..anywhere for any reason? Hmmmm?

    With a the respect to you from people who realize that you truly put your life on the line every minute of the day to protect our nation. Unfortunaltly you are fighting two battles one in Iraq and the Cowards in the Senate who loath the military and GWB.

    Good luck,

    We are with you….

  33. david

    Thank you, wear your uniform and you will never buy your own starbucks again. We know what you are doing, only the ignorant belittle your task. I sat behind a young marine and his wife at the Red sox / yankee game if I had the cash I would have bought them a house.

    keep up the good work!!!!

  34. Otto

    >> it sucks that iraqi’s have more patriotism for a country that has turned to complete shit more than the people in america who drink starbucks everyday. we could leave this place and say we are sorry to the terrorists. and then we could wait for 3,000 more american civilians to die before we say “hey thats not nice” again. and the sad thing is after we WIN this war.

    Thank you for your service for our country and the people of Iraq. Thank you for doing sharing your story with us. We need to hear more of these!
    You are a great American!
    David
    P.S. Yeah Harry is a douche! He does not speak for most Americans.

  41. AJStrata

    My deepest thanks to all of you folks serving in Iraq and Afghanistan and making America proud. While folks like Sen Surrender (Reid) can never fathom what you have done they - thankfully - are not the majority. I honored to have you represent us back here so well. Be safe and know you will be welcomed back!

    Cheers, AJStrata

  42. Adam

    I will make sure Jeb Bush sees this posting. Possibly might make its way to the White House. I want to thank the grunt who sent this and Matt Drudge for posting it today - you all have done your country an invaluable service.

    PS. I hate Starbucks anyway.

    Adam (Florida)

  43. Russ McDonald

    Thank you for your service Corporal Rock.

    Please refresh my memory as to why we went into Iraq in the first place? I understand why we can’t leave but it
    seems to me we would have been better off keeping our eye on the ball in Afganistan.

    I’m no bleeding heart, but Iraq seems to be a huge error in judgment on the part of the Bush Administration. (The realization of which takes nothing away from any of the troops service to our country.)

  44. David

    Hey Otto It has to do with the WMD’s that were used on his own people and the fact that he did not come clean with what he still had. And he was funding and supporting various terrorist groups. Of course if you want the next 9/11 to have some wmd on the side he could have helped you with that.

    Keep up the good work over there folks!

    David

  45. Ynaem Newo

    Senator Harry Reid is to Marshall Pétain as the Democratic Party is to the Vichy Regime.
    I would like to interpolate this analogy into the blogosphere to stimulate a discussion of its historical relevancy to the Senator’s recent political statements and others who make similar pronouncements.

    originially posted by Otto:

    “get a clue you dolts - Iraq had ZERO to do with 9/11.

    no wonder the only job you can get is blowing people up. ”

    Iraq might have had little or nothing to do with Al Qaeda before we went in, but they were attempting to produce WMD’s and had signed a treaty against it. Also everyone from the Democrats to France backed our invasion at the outset so don’t even start with the “we shouldn’t have gone in” BS.

    Now that we are there and Al-Qaeda has been pushed out of Trashcanistan, Al-Qaeda has a lot to do with Iraq. They seek a new homeland there and a terrorist recruitment playground. Iraq has everything to do with stopping the next 9-11 from happening.

    Before you post here do 3 things for me Otto;

    1) Read up on recent history
    2) Stop hating your country and your dad
    3) Think

    Thanks sport

    Very often when I drink my stupid Starbucks, or indulge in any other simple pleasure, I think of what this kind of freedom has cost in the blood and sacrifice of American servicemen. Please know that many, many of us understand this.

    Thank you for your sacrifice.

    Harry will be a footnote in history, what you are doing will not.

    This was was lost when it took longer than the three to six months that was said to be necessary by our leaders to complete the job.

    Now we are just there to try and save face for Bush and Cheney.

    Combined how long this has taken, the numerous miscalculations and the lack of WMDs, and its hard to call this anything but a failure. We are fighting mostly insurgents, and not AQ, in Iraq.

    I hope and pray that all of the troops get out soon and get out safely. Those people in Iraq are bent on blowing each other up, whether we are there or not. Let them.

    While this is a good email regarding Sen Reids comments, you may have provided too much information about the young Marine. I am sure that Senate Staffers have already phoned the Marines at the Pentagon. As the old saying goes, pooh flows down hill and straight to that young Marine.

  54. Gail

    Thank you corporal. I appreciate your service to country.

    You’re contribution to making the United States safer is priceless and eternal. I can’t yet imagine a world where there is a prosperous Iraq, I hope and pray for it though.

    You make that hope more of a relaity each day. God bless you.

    I think more brave soldiers, like you, should post their experiences. The coverage of what happens in Iraq is overwhelmingly negative.

    I thirst for the truth and all I hear is negativity with the motive of undoing your hard work. Please don’t be discouraged and I will continue to hope and pray for your success.

  55. Concerned Citizen

    Umm, that “douchebag” is the Senate Majority Leader! Like it or not, there are three co-equal branches of government, and the one that pays the bills is no longer on board with this war. Has CPL Rock read the Constitution he swore to protect? By the way, if he were an officer he would be liable to court martial under Article 88 of the UCMJ (10 USC 888). Shouldn’t an E4 choose his words more carefully?

  56. Tim Roesch

    Greetings:

    I second the douche bag and raise an entire fuckwad!

    I think the ‘E-4′ was being polite. Having met Marines from time to time douche bag is almost polite.

    Concerned citizen…try to read past the douche bag and see the truth in this E-4’s statement and pictures. Harry Reid just told the US we lost a war he didn’t want to fight in the first place.

    Concerned citizen…when all those polite Marines return home and Al-queda and Allah alone knows whomelse shows up at your doorstep to sodomize your kids and give you the key to the rape room who you gonna call?

    Buddy, when is your tour of duty over so we can start doing a write in for President.

    You got a right to be pissed from what that ‘douchbag’ ‘loser’ ‘weasel’ ‘jackass’ ’scum sucking egg dog’ Harry ‘Land Deal’ Reed, said.

    To Concerned Citizen: Nice one buddy, somebody over there gets pissed about what somebody says over here and you threaten his career. You want to go by his house and kick his dog too?

    GOD SPEED MARINES!!!! There’s a lot of people behind you back home. Don’t listen to what CNN says. Their douchbags too.

  59. Martin

    Time and time again we hear people on the left site things that they inevitably cannot prove. The One that gets me the most is this idea that the current engagments look like Vietnam. Well, let me tell you leftist baka (idiots) out there that you have it wrong. This is NOT VIETNAM. We have lost battles at times, yes, but this is clearly a localized insurgency that is the same (Identically) to the Meiji Restoration that Nipon (Japan) wnet through from the end of the 1800’s to just a little there after. British and American forces engaged with the Japanese in the effort of dissolving the ideals of the Tokogawa Shoganate that was ruling a clan system over Japan. Kinda like the mullahs and Imams. Also this was an insurgancy, what has no rules of engagement and that and no Uniforms. To compare these Vietnam TO Iraq IS HISTORICAL BLASPHEMY. Get Over Your Libby Selves And Quit Posting Your Slime On A Good Soldiers Page. Ooh-Rah Marine, and if youy run into my Uncle Capt John Sands Tell em I love me them Dirty Dogs!! Thank You All so much for the hope that you all bring to those that have you to thank for their lives. That’s All! Semper Phi!!!

  60. Martin

    Oh Yeah - Bring peace to whomever you come across in Iraq, and remember that deep down from the heart of the country to the ends of it’s shores there is a bell of freedom that will always ring for you guys, you bad men and women of the battlefield. We never retreat, we only advance in another direction. or something like that. Love yoou guys, KEEP THAT POWDER DRY:!:

    [To Mr. Concerned Citizen] This Marine has earned the right to describe Mr Reid in any form he sees fit.

    [To Corporal Rock] Keep up the good work Marine. The overwhelming majority of Americans support you and the mission, and as a Veteran of Desert Storm and the Balkan Conflict I wholeheartedly support ya’ll.

    Concerned citizen,What happened to freedom of speech?Yeh right that only applies to liberals.You and you ilk trample on the constitution until it fits your needs.

    It’s all becoming clearer.The military represents strength,courage,courage and honor.I know it must eat at you knowing that you will never have any of the three.I’m sure it must have something to do with getting wedgies by the football team in high school.Or that time when you were a senior and two freshman stuffed you in a locker.

    Sit back and shut up because “MEN” and women are dying for you goof!

  64. Sean

    The military serves the political establishment in a Democracy. The United States military does not have the authority to decide when to enter or leave a theatre of war.

  65. Gabe Thompson

    “The military serves the political establishment in a Democracy. The United States military does not have the authority to decide when to enter or leave a theatre of war”.

    No shit! But we do have the right to speak up and bitch when we’re getting dicked around. No one seems to be confused about who we work for. Do you seriously expect us to stand by and let let the democrats negate all the hard work thats gone into this war?

    Warren, you a liberal who dont now what hes talking about. Just shut up and get your facts straight. Saddam was conspiring with Bin Ladin to do 911

    bleeding heart conservative:

    (I am reconstructing this from memory as the original is on my old roommates laptop)

    For a thousand childrens freedom in Fallujah I swore,
    I would give me body, my life, my heart for this war.

    Destroyed infrastructure,
    Dead families of a former regime,
    Those memories I and my fellow Marines
    So humbly, So solemnly, set out to redeem.

    Back home at the college,
    When I was allowed to return,
    With stories of human triumph,
    My fellow americans gave me scorn.

    A photo on my wall, of a young girl in ramadi and I,
    many pictures of hopeful faces, and all they ask
    Is how many of your friends died?

    We bled and we fought,
    and with a soft hand,
    over an alien countries sky,
    like our own family,
    we loved them, eventhough you wont understand.

    Ordered to fight, and even though many refused,
    We kept our honor while you drank your booze,

    smoked your weed,
    and had your rallies,

    and then spit on my kin,
    Why did you come into my starbucks, time and time again?

    Only to berate me when you truly found out what I did.(pointed to the host)

    I have no regrets only the honor you refuse me.

    Everyone enjoy your fucking coffee (thats when I walked out)

    In my opinion, Harry Reid is a traitor to his country and has, in my opinion, committed treason by giving aid and comfort to the enemy with his statements. In doing so he has put US troops in harms way who are defending the United States. Where I come from, we call this treason….. Just remember, most Americans don’t think the way he does. He’s part of the corrupt thing we call the Democratic party……..

  72. Gene Sturlin

    Cpl. Rock, thank you for your service you just may be part of America’s finest moment. Harry the traitor Reid is wrong… not only is this war not lost it has already been won. You son have helped set up a democracy… think of that… a democracy where there was a dictator.

    You are awesome, Dirty Harry is scum and should be impeached. IN FACT I CALL FOR HIS IMPEACHMENT NOW!

    Dear concerned citizen,

    PLease continue your train of thought. LET”S GO BACK AND COURT MARSHAL JOHN KERRY! NOT ONLY DID HE SPEAK TREASON AGAIN AND AGAIN DID HE NOT SPREAD LIES ABOUT VEITNAM?

    But we would never do that, we support your right to spout whatever B.S. that you liberals want. You only support your own liberal agenda. Proof in the pudding = you want to pass a law taking talk radio off the air because you don’t agree with it? Freedom of speech anyone?

    As far as Ried goes he would love to surrender this country to terrorists. Socialists always stick together.

    Great job over there guys! True patriots over here support you.

  75. Joel

    Cpl. Rock,

    Please keep kicking some ass for all of us America lovers. these damn libs don’t speak for any so called “majority” of the American people who “oppose the war.” Apparently, freedom isn’t all that valuable to them. People understand how important it is. Get some for me.

    Thank you so much for your service. And I thank your family too. I am sorry that your wife is having a difficult time. You soldiers endure so much to protect us! I will pray for you and her.

    I have a special place in my heart for the Marine Corps as my father was a U.S. Marine for 21 1/2 years.

    Good luck to you guys, stay safe.

    Douchebag Harry Reid. Mr. Corruption, wheeling and dealing land deals in Nevada that line the pockets of his family and cronies. What does he know about war and the history of this country? Nothing!!! He is a douchebag of the highest order. He should read The Art Of War and memorize the details that specifically discuss politicians at home shutting their face when troops are in harms way.

    Thank you for your commitment and keeping us safe at home! Some of us wake up every day thankful that men like you are protecting our freedom and democracy. God bless!!!

  94. JOE PIZZARELLO

    DEAR SIR,

    FIRST OFF THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY AND TO PROTECTING MY FAMILY. I THINK YOU SHOULD START A BOYCOTT OF LEFTISTS TRAITORS.THERE MUST BE SOMTHING STARTED TO HIT THESE MISINFORMED AT BEST,TRAITOROUS AT WORST. RIED IS FROM VEGAS. START A BOYCOTT OF THE VEGAS PRODUCT,TOURISM. ROSIE O’DONNELL IS SUPPORTED ON TV BY SPONSORS. BOYCOTT THE SPONSORS. ANY NEWS OUTLET WILL FEEL THE HEAT FROM SPONSORS WHEN THEY START FEELING THE EFFECTS OF LOST SALES. THE ONLY EFFING MEDIA OUTLET THAT WON’T RESPOND IS THE NEW YORK TIMES. BUT THE OTHERS CARE WHERE THEIR BREAD IS BUTTERED. YOU HAVE A TREMENDOUS BASE TO START WITH IN THE MILITARY COMMUNITY.IT COULD SPREAD TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC,AND IT WILL IF YOU TIE IN TO CONSERVATIVE TALK RADIO.
    I HOPE YOU FINISH YOUR TOUR AND RETURN HOME SAFELY.

  95. Randolph Knipp

    What an honor to have men serving the nation like this man! I am truly proud to be an American, and it hurts my pride when I hear other Americans speak so despicably of our efforts to help another country become a democracy. I simply cannot understand it, since I know in my heart that we are all on the same side… How in the world can leaders be so much on opposite sides? It boggles the mind! Are there really evil people at the helm of the Nation? It is beyond understanding how we can be so divided, when I know that united we can be such a formidable force for good!

    please believe, everyone i know supports what you are doing and is behind you all the way. don’t let the dems let you think otherwise.

    There is no more noble task in this world than kickin’ terrorist pig ass. Great Job and thanks for all the hard work. Too bad there is so much more slime to wipe off your boots

    God Bless America

  98. Really

    I know he (Reid) should have never opened his mouth. But I dont see how you and or the Republicans can claim victory after losing so many American lives. The point hurts more once you factor in the fact that Iraq had nothing to do with the 3000 lives you refered to in your statements. No one is calling for the withdrawl of American forces from Afganistan. I am all for fighting them over there so we dont fight them here…but couldnt that battle field be in Afganistan? Thats where they were to begin with! Your write about what Reid said but wrong on many other points

  99. Asa

    My family has been in every conflict in this country since the Revolutionary War. I support everything you do there. To Hell with Reid and Pelosi. They don’t know “come here from sick ‘um”. Give them hell.

  100. Rob D

    Thank you for your service, Cpl Rock. You and the many thousands of men and women that make up our brave Volunteer Army deserve every honor. I was glad to read a bit of news out of Ramadi that was good, instead of the shit coverage the defeatist mainstream media spouts.

    Thank you for putting everything on the line for us. That’s something Harry Reid has never done and will never effing do.

    Hate to break it to you, but what you are doing in Iraq has nothing to do with the 9/11 attacks. But whatever gets you motivated.

  104. Rod Ensley Sr

    To concerned citizen. Have you read the constitution? There is only one commander in chief. Also, too bad you haven’t read about the Barbary Pirates. If you had you would know that this is a long war and must be won or else we will eventually be killed or live under tyranny.

    Keep up the good work Pat. We in this household and all my friends support you.

    Too bad I’m not a movie star with lots of clout and money. If I were I’d could have more political influence.

  105. Floyd Sanders

    Stay focused and get home safe. Most of those politicians seem like douchebags on their soundbites, and Reid is a hapless man with power. And yeah, I’ll buy a Marine a Starbucks the next time I can. Bash or be bashed!

    Harry Reid SHOULD be made to step down. This no good weasel has brought aid and comfort to the enemy. He really should be arrested for aiding the enemy, but NO pollitician, Republican or democrat has any spine to stand up for our country or its troops. All ANY of them want is to be re-elected, and to hell with anything else. The are all a bunch of self centered, egotistical, spoiled, and brain dead buffoons. NONE should be re-elected.
    HARRY REID….and others like him gotta go!!!!

  109. J Wright

    Yeah we all support the troops. They didn’t start this mess. And the best way is support the troops in Iraq is to bring them home. Funny that a bunch of chicken hawk lying politicans get more respect from some loud mouth troops than real veterans that are Democrats. Get real. Vietnam was lost when I was there. Iraq is lost now. Time to set up a dictatorship in Iraq that can be ruthless with the religious control freaks.

    Cpl. Rock,

    You make me proud to be an American, thanks for speaking your mine, and telling the truth! You guys are doing a

    at least we can plan on them trying to turn tail and run.

  111. Michael Phillips

    Way to go Marines! I am so glad there are folks who took up the torch after I got out.

    Forget about Harry Reid and his ilk…They will always be a reminder and an annoyance to those who truely understand what its all about.

    Its all about that “mind over matter”, and they no longer matter.

    What goes around comes around for people like them.

    Thanks again for your service!

    Concerned citizen,

    If we carried your logic then we should Court marshal John Kerry.
    Did he not lie about Veitnam? Not to mention treason.
    Pay attention to what these marines say you may learn something.

  118. Ken

    Sir! I am proud to hear of your service to our country. I will be even prouder when your mission is complete, and you return home safe.

    I have always felt that the true story of what is going on in Iraq had been either watered down, or never completely reported in the Media. So it was a treat to read of your experiences there on the ground, and the difference you all are making.

    Here in the States, we are getting a regular dose of politcal ads running on the radio. One is from the Edwards campaign talking about two America’s. Like Reid, he has not a clue. When the local reservists of the 1133rd returned home, I got to see the better part of America lining the streets as they arrived. The other America? They could not be bothered showing up to welcome our boys home. They are types like Reid, who would rather disgrace you sir, than support you. But that’s ok, because I know from looking at those lining the street of our town that day, the majority are behind you.

    Godspeed.

  119. Charlynn Harvey

    Cpl. Rock,
    Thank you for your service. I believe most Americans really support you guys. Most days I can’t listen to the news because of the leftist slant. My 17 year old son seems to be leaning toward the Marines. I’ll be proud of him but also afraid. This war could be won so much easier if the entire country would get behind the effort. I pray for you guys. I know you’re doing a phenomenal job.

  120. Tahoewino

    Cpl. Rock,
    Know that you and your brothers in arms are deeply loved and respected here, even if Dirty Harry thinks you’ve “lost”. He needs to resign his post as Senate Majority Leader so he can spend more time as the official Al Quaeda Cheerleader. I’m sending him a wig, a sporty little skirt and some pom-poms to make the outfit complete. Hoooooaaahh!

  121. Craig Couturier

    When are all the people who make comments like Reid realize that all they do by saying stuff like that is further embolden the enemy to keep on fighting. They(the enemy) all watch CNN. They care more about their own political aqenda than the safety of the American people, which brave men like Cpl. Rock are protecting abroad. Cpl., you should know that Y’all are supported in what y’all are doing by 99.9% of your country.GOD BLESS AMERICA, ITS MILITARY, AND THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF!!

  122. Steve Wagoner

    Your the man Marine. You guys keep pounding guys like Harry Reid, as you do the terriorist, and you will get them to shut their pie holes.
    God bless you and all the guys over there. Keep it up and don’t believe much of what you hear in most of the media. The vast majority of Americans are wirh you and will support you all the way. Even if we have to raise the funds privately.
    I thank you for what you are doing and my family thanks you.
    Also, the heck with Starbucks. Let me know how I can do it and I will buy you a beer. Heck, what am I saying. A lot of beers.
    Thanks again and keep your head low and your powder dry.

  123. Christian Coulter

    When you get back to the states, wear that uniform proudly. I hope that other Americans will join me in making sure we pick up the lunch, dinner or Starbucks bill that a Marine, soldier or sailor in uniform has to show that we stand with you, are proud of you, and welcome you back with open arms as our family. Our debt cannot be repaid in full, but small gestures add up, and as an American, I can certainly pick up a tab for an American Hero who has sacrificed so much, risked all, and performed your duty with honor. So many would like to say thank you, and more and more, we must overcome being shy or worried what you will think us strange, and just go up and say, Thank You!!!

  124. john

    Thanks for your service. I went to a funeral today for a fallen army man and our governer (big time anti-patriot) was there and it makes me sick to think that people like him look at this sacrifice as wasted. Fortunately nobody just reads the paper anymore. We know because of people like you and others like Michael Yon what is really going on. You are in our thoughts and prayers- You are our men in harms way are true heros- the personifications of the word.

  125. Ralph an old 4th ID man

    Thanks Brotherman, :beer:
    for all you do out there!!!

    I believe there is a place for the Harry Reids of the world.. that being on the trash pile of history somewhere.. He, and people like John Kerry..

    If someone were to really think about the oath they took in the military carefully, it speaks of dealing with enemies both foreign and domestic.. and it doesnt give a time line for that oath.. could be for a lifetime couldnt it?? Just a thought.. Keep up the good work Brother..

    The vast majority of us out here are proud to be American, and swell with pride at the job our young fighting men and women are doing. Those serving are some of the finest Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines, I’ve ever seen. Fight the good fight in the just cause and return to us safely.

    Oh yeah, and as for Harry Reid, a lot of people are referring to him as “The Less Than Honorable Senator Reid.” Who knows maybe Nevada will get the idea that he’s not helping them any and get him out of there.

Thank you, Sir!! The democratic leadership are ALL traitors to America and all that she represents! Not one of them is worthy of the position that he holds!!! John Murtha (PA) should be thrown out on his cheap, plastic ear!!! And Harry Reid is a despicable excuse for a piece of human flotsam…… The American people support you; these others aren’t good enough to be called Americans - that takes a special person; like those who fill the military. I know, I’ve worked with the US Air Force for 37 years!!! Continue your GREAT work, Sir! YOU WILL WIN!!! in spite of the worthless democratic leadership and the media - we don’t need either!!!! All Americans need to understand that the democratic party OWNS DEFEAT!!! These left wing, hate America, weasels have no spine and think that they can reason with these zealots (Al Q’ieda)!! Just remember all of this in 2008 NOV; vote Conservatives IN and ALL of the left wing, anti American democrats OUT!!! Harry Reid NEEDS a SUPER tongue lashing from a military MAN!! In my work, I’ve seen what the President sees and President Bush NEVER LIED TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, ONLY THE DEMOCRATS!!! There were WMDs in Iraq!!!! Syria and Iran now have them!! And, oh by the way, Dan (Nr. 51), President Bush NEVER said that it would take three to six months, but rather YEARS to clean out al Qa’ieda!! Go back and listen to his original speech to America!! And he said that it would be difficult!! We are SO VERY BLESSED TO HAVE THESE MARINES!!!! Otto (Nr 37), YOU get a clue!! al Qa’ieda TRAINED in Iraq!! You listen to and read entirely too much left wing diarrhea of the mouth - those who want to destroy American and ALL that she represents that is good because they are SO VERY BAD!!!!! They wouldn’t and couldn’t tell the truth with a gun to their collective heads!!! God speed, Corporal Rock, and you and your commrads are in our prayers. Thank you again for who you are and what you are doing!! harry reid is less than a slime ball!!! Some one needs to get al Sadar!! Let the Marine Recon go in and get him, put cement shoes on him, take him 500 km out over the Indian Ocean, give him a little push, and tell him to swim back to shore…….. Do the same with Amadinijhad ! Syria will then dry up and the war will be OVER!!! John R., in Sonora, Socialist Republic of California.

    hairy reed (no I’m not illiterate) is a fool and so are most, if not all of the liberals in this GREAT COUNTRY. They would rather you fail in your mission because they think they can play kissy face with people who want to destroy us all. I am proud of all of your service in the defense of the USA. I am a retired AF SMSGT myself and was in during VN so I know what you are hearing on the so called news, but know there are more people for you than are against you. All of you are in my prayers every day and night. I know the Lord Jesus Christ will see you through this ordeal.

  134. cvd

    Remember, conservatives, when you’re spitting your venom (liberals! pussies! traitors!), there are tens of thousands of liberals, more brave and patriotic than you at your keyboard, fighting for their country in Iraq.

  135. Ken Rexrode

    Like so many others have said, “thank you for your service”. It’s great to hear all the good you are doing. When OBL told his terroist clones to all go to Iraq once the war broke out most people didn’t understand what would ensue. Although, it has made the campaign far more difficult than originally expected it has provided us the wonderful opportunity to slaughter these losers in their own region of the world. What is so wrong with killing the terrorists there instead of possibly fighting them here in America. Or cleaning up after another 9-11. No one wants to give Bush credit for us not having another attack in 5 1/2 years on American soil. At least Rudy Guiliani knows what is at stake. The democrats have turned this war into an election issue. And the sad thing is is that they have 2/3 of America buying into this bring the troops home shit. Sad but true. Stay the course and be strong. Keep killing terrorists and keep helping the poor people caught in the crossfire.

    Carry on Corporal! These armchair douchebags never seem to learn, as they sit in committee all day and whine that their lobbying money isn’t enough.

    To my fellow veterans, past and present - salute! Good job, keep your head down, and come home safely when the job is done!

    God Bless you Cpl. Liberty will win out. As long as voices like yours find a way to get the real stories of what is happenning to the public, the propagandists like Reid will continue to fail in thier attempts to sabotage the spread of freedom.
