Be respectful of others and their opinions. Inflammatory remarks and inane leftist drivel will be deleted. It ain’t about free speech, remember you’re in a private domain. My website, my prerogative.
If you can't handle using your real email address, don't bother posting a comment.
He continues to serve…as an example to those that come behind. So long as his story is told.
April 8th, 2008 at 7:51 pmGod, it’s so hard seeing “little boy” pictures of these guys …
Not so much the training that caused him to do what he did that fateful day, but the purity and selflessness of his heart and soul.
I am a lesser person for not having known him, or Michael Murphey … or many of those who have fallen in this crusade.
But I am filled with hope and pride knowing that there are young men in our nation who feel the strong Clarion Call to duty and answer it so … flawlessly.
April 8th, 2008 at 8:29 pmAnother life well-lived, dedicated to the profession of arms. One who epitomized the warrior ethos; whose last act was nothing less than heroic selflessness and self-sacrifice.
The lady was right. There are few in the world with such a self-less attitude or who are willing to live a self-less life.
The MOH award is the capstone on this young man’s career. And the award says more about the man, than anything else.

My symapthies go out to his family and friends. His loss is our loss too.
April 8th, 2008 at 8:56 pmIt is shame such a good human being such as Michael met an end like he did.
He is a hero.
It is a shame leaders like George W. Bush caused so much suffering, knowingly lying us into a ground war.
The CIA has been smuggling heroin out of Afghanistan since the President Carter era.
Reagan’s need to finance covert operations led to the military and CIA get even more involved in smuggling cocaine from S. America.
The wars are about protecting drug turf, smuggling drugs, and about making those in the war corporations and others, rich.
Bush has NPD and has trouble even pretending he cares. But, lately he must have been taking acting lessons. I expand more on that here:

April 8th, 2008 at 8:58 pmHey Steven? I’m gonna light you on fire.
April 9th, 2008 at 12:18 amSteven do you have to come on THIS thread and insult the memory of a man like Monsoor? Get away from us and do not do it again
. As for Monsoor’s family and friends I am so sorry for you. 
April 9th, 2008 at 7:29 amSteven G. Erickson you are a POS! The tragedy is you have no respect for someone like this fine man and MOH awardee.
April 9th, 2008 at 8:44 amGo back to kissing azz with your good commie friend and liar Bill Moyers…you two frauds deserve each other.
God Bless you Mike, and the family that helped to mold you into what you have become. I expect I will see you guarding the streets of Heaven along side the United States Marines.
April 9th, 2008 at 9:59 amI Would really like to meet you in a bar or alley some night. The simple fact that you cannot lay down your failed political ideology to honor one of the brave men that have and continue to protect your right to be a moronic, self absorbed asshole speaks volumes about your character!!
April 9th, 2008 at 10:02 amBetween THIS thread and the previous Monsoor thread we, I believe, are dealing with the same troll …
Either that or an orchestrated tag team.
“Lame-Brain Trust” M.O. of the “Idiocracy Party”.
April 9th, 2008 at 10:19 amYeah, Steven, it’s all about you - your ideology, your “expanded” explanations of your vacuous lame tired liberal rants, recycled for the millionth time since the first brainless idiot first spouted them.
Mike was obviously not thinking about himself - a trait that you should try out some time. That is what true character is all about - thinking of others before self.
You liberals are all the same - talk like you care about humanity, but in action prove time and again that you are lower than shit in the sewer. Too bad Mike Mansoor had to die for the likes of you - and you still don’t even seem to respect the fact that his death (and the deaths of many before him) have preserved your right to be such a pathetic creature.
April 9th, 2008 at 11:55 am“LET ME NOT MOURN FOR MEN WHO HAVE DIED FIGHTING,
April 9th, 2008 at 12:25 pmBUT RATHER LET ME BE GLAD THAT SUCH HEROS HAVE LIVED”- GENERAL PATTON
Erickson, you are a pig. Got it? You have no class. You can’t even keep your fat mouth shut while we are honoring someone who lived what you never will — honor and sacrifice.
You are a self centered coward who is not even worthy to lick the dust off the road Mike Monsoor traveled on. Go to hell [and you probably will].
To Mr. and Mrs. Monsoor:
As a mother of sons and a daughter, I’ve found that I was much more protective of my daughter than I was my sons. The lessons were different, for my daughter, to protect herself and be wise. For my sons, to be brave and noble and respectful of women.
As unimaginable as it must be to bury a child, Michael is the jewel in your crown. What he did reflects directly on your raising him. Stand proud, stand tall. You took a darling little boy and raised him into a giant in heart and deeds. You did him well, and in return, he did you proud.
God Bless you.
April 9th, 2008 at 12:41 pmThe greatest of respect and love for the Monsoor family!
Steven, this is for you! You and men like you have allowed bondage throughout the world.
Our enemy By Mike Moseley
Our enemy in the war on terror is viscous and will attack our men of honor with words that are met to kill, maim and destroy. This propaganda comes hard and fast from every direction. Our soldiers are well arm and protected with today’s finest armor but our enemy fire not bullets or bombs at them. The enemy fires at the soldier on the battlefield, his spouse and parents at home, and their children in school.
The enemy has attacked our soldiers with words that are met to wound his pride, damage his honor, and question his integrity. Our men of honor have volunteered to cross the world to fight an enemy that is viscous and hides behind women and children. Al-Qaeda doesn’t have a uniform and never will. Al-Qaeda knows in a fair fight they do not stand a chance. The most dangerous enemy to the American soldier doesn’t where a uniform, fire a AK-47, plant IED, live in Iraq or Afghanistan. The most dangerous enemies are the one’s that ambush their own. America’s finest have taken wounds not from the front, the known enemy Al-Qaeda, but from the ones that have sent them to fight half a world away. The enemies have said that “the war is lost”calling for defeat. They have called our soldiers “Soviet gulag guards”, the butcher “Pol Pot’s finest.” A great cheer is raised from the camp of Al-Qaeda, and their brothers in terror as America’s men of honor have been betrayed by a fellow marine, that fool called our soldiers “cold blooded murders”. America’s enemies have called Gen David Petraeus dishonorable, and Gen. Peter Pace “ incompetent”. To call these men dishonorable and incompetent is without reason and thought. For it is the liberal’s attack on the battlefield soldiers that bring Al-Qaeda and the

left together as allies in the war on terror.
With each attack the parents cringe and pray for strength for their uniformed child. The children of soldiers are not protected from liberal hatred but are shown the disease that it is. The left trots out a weekly tool that calls President Bush a Hitler and yet a soldiers child must show no pain and be a stronger prouder American for this trash.
The Democrats have been wrong all along, they said that Iraqis would not choose freedom, but they have. The enemy said that Iraq’s constitution would not be approved, but it is. They said they the Iraqi’s would never leave their alliance with Al-Qaeda, Al-Qaeda is being hunted down like the dogs they are. The Iraqi’s have learned that America’s men of honor are not the “cold blooded murders” that Democratic leaders say they are. The Iraqi’s have witnessed strength, bravery, integrity, and the honor that causes freedom. The Iraqi’s military is learning from history finest soldier. The world’s standard for all time. Al-Qaeda has shown that they are everything that the Democratic leadership have said our men of honor are. “Cold blooded murders”, “Nazi’s”,”Pol pot’s finest”, and “Soviet gulag guards”. The recent 11% congressional approval rating seems extremely high from our soldiers point of view, I’m sure.
The Left has undermined the mission, and are attempting to legislate defeat before our own eyes, but more importantly the eyes of the men on the battlefield. Congressional Democratic leaders have forgotten this is not “Bush’s war”. But a war that belongs to the all of America’s leaders. The UN security council’s voted 17 times to stop Saddam Hussain. The world’s

intelligence agencies ( Israel, Russia, China, United Kingdom, France, etc, etc, etc.) has their hands in this. And of course, the support of the 9/11 commission was essential. The Democratic leaders have proven again that they can not and will not support men on the battlefield, not in the past, or in the present and I doubt, the future.
The options in Iraq are victory and victory alone. To choose defeat at this or any other time proves the enemy lives within. As this war has played out the Democratic leaders have done everything possible to break the will of American victory and her men of honor. As the successes in Iraq continue to multiply and all of Iraq stabilize, I’m sure that our enemies within will not celebrate.
If you can’t find stories about Iraq in your daily newspaper, don’t be confused. The fighting in Iraq has taken a turn because of the surge. Al-Qaeda is being hunted down and will be defeated in Iraq. The Iraqi’s are standing up for freedom. For they have watched our men of honor and learned how to be free. It is the American soldier that has and will transform enemy nations to freedom loving allies. Thanks to every man and woman that has ever worn a uniform.

April 9th, 2008 at 1:28 pmWow! You’re a tool! What tool, I haven’t figured out yet. The one that the french use to clean their ass, or the one that arabs use to hose off their ass. Either way, you are the asswipe of this thread (and many others, I’m sure).
My apologies to the rest of the thread. You guys articulately rebutted his myopic, ‘blame America first for mine and the worlds problems’ viewpoint, that I thought I would take the low road and just call him names.
Semper Fi Petty Officer Monsoor!
