You go, Sgt. Major!! Thank you for your service to our country.

J.D. Pendry is a retired Army Command Sergeant Major who writes for Random House.

Jimmy Carter , you’re the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You’re the runner-in-chief.

Bill Clinton , you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia , and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the U.S.S. Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately they grew bolder, until 9/11.

John Kerry , dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam. Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. You’ve accused our Soldiers of terrorizing women and children in Iraq. You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, the same words you used to describe Vietnam. You’re a fake. You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did the Vietnamese. Iraq, like Vietnam is another war that you were for, before you were against it.

John Murtha , you said our military was broken. You said we can’t win militarily in Iraq. You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof. And said we should redeploy to Okinawa. Okinawa John? And the Democrats call you their military expert. Are you sure you didn’t suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You’re a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. You’re not a Marine, sir. You wouldn’t amount to a good pimple on a real Marine’s ass. You’re a phony and a disgrace. Run away John .

Dick Durbin , you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot, who murdered two million of his own people after your party abandoned South East Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us!! See Dick run.

Ted Kennedy , for days on end you held poster-sized pictures from Abu Grhaib in front of any available television camera. Al Jazeera quoted you saying that Iraqi’s torture chambers were open under new management. Did you see the news this week, Teddy ? The Islamic Nazis demonstrate real torture for you again. If you truly supported our troops, you’d show the world poster-sized pictures of that atrocity and demand the annihilation of it. Your legislation stripping support from the South Vietnamese led to a communist victory there. You’re a bloated drunken fool bent on repeating the same historical blunder that turned freedom-seeking people over to homicidal, genocidal maniacs. To paraphrase John Murtha, all while sitting on your wide, gin-soaked rear-end in Washington

Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Hillary Clinton , Pat Leahy , Chuck Schumer, et al ad nauseam. Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied, that the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers, that we should leave Iraq , you give the Islamic butchers – the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers – cause to think that we’ll run away again, and all they have to do is hang on a little longer.

American news media, the New York Times particularly : Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one United, with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can’t strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda is. Think about that each time you face Mecca to admire your Pulitzer

You are America’s “AXIS OF IDIOTS”. Your Collective Stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on the hands of murdering terrorists. Don’t ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam. If you want our Soldiers home, as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies. Yes, I’m questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with self. I’m also questioning why you’re stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don’t deserve the protection of our men and women in uniform. You need to run away from this war, this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.

No, Mr. President , you don’t get off the hook, either . Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within. Your Soldiers are dealing with the outside force. It’s your obligation to support them by confronting the AXIS OF IDIOTS. America must hear it from you that these Self-centered people are harming our country, abetting the enemy and endangering our safety. Well up a little anger, please, and channel it toward the appropriate target. You must prosecute those who leak national security secrets to the media. You must prosecute those in the media who knowingly publish those secrets. Our Soldiers need you to confront the enemy that they cannot. They need you to do it now.

AMEN

  1. I am a 2 tour Vietnam Veteran who recently retired after 36 years of working in the Defense Industrial Complex on many of the weapons systems being used by our forces as we speak.

    Politicians make no difference.

    We have bought into the Military Industrial Complex (MIC). If you would like to read how this happens please see:

    http://www.vanityfair.com/politics/features/2007/03/spyagency200703

    Through a combination of public apathy and threats by the MIC we have let the SYSTEM get too large. It is now a SYSTEMIC problem and the SYSTEM is out of control. Government and industry are merging and that is very dangerous.

    There is no conspiracy. The SYSTEM has gotten so big that those who make it up and run it day to day in industry and government simply are perpetuating their existance.

    The politicians rely on them for details and recommendations because they cannot possibly grasp the nuances of the environment and the BIG SYSTEM.

    So, the system has to go bust and then be re-scaled, fixed and re-designed to run efficiently and prudently, just like any other big machine that runs poorly or becomes obsolete or dangerous.

    This situation will right itself through trauma. I see a government ENRON on the horizon, with an associated house cleaning.

    The next president will come and go along with his appointees and politicos. The event to watch is the collapse of the MIC.

  2. This is good reading and should be fowarded

  3. We live to serve,sir.

  4. Send the democraps to the war, like they are reporter’s, see how they like getting their asses shot at, like our troops. Then arm them, and set them out to use our military issued weapons, side arms and rifles, and see if they can shoot. If not, too bad, cowardly morons.

    • well listen dumb ass im a democrat who served with two brothers during viet nam losing my younger brother to wounds suffered there all democrats and all joined not drafted or hid from the draft we served willingly. unlike many rich republicans who hid out at home. U HAVE NO CLAIM TO SERVING OR GETTING KILLED. And u want to send other people to a war that shouldnt be. If george bush was any real leader he would have done the job in afganistan instead of sending troops in harms way in a war that shouldnt have been. Its easy to run your mouth but we are 3 going on 4 generations who have fought and lost loved ones and i have a daughter in harms way now. and we have done so quietly so idiots like you can run your mouth and blame the ills of the world on democrats as though republicans didnt exist or have a large hand in everything thats going or went on. Well i guess its better to be thought a foll than open your mouth and remove all doubt as you have

      • Democrats are the richest among us. Don’t be fooled good sir.

  5. Hooaaa, CSM Pendry!!!

  6. Sick of fighting the Arabs wars for them.

  7. Good interesting site.

  8. It cannot be said better than said by CSM Pendry. Hopefully the majority of our politicians will see the light before it is too late, and support our nation and our troops.

  9. Sergeant Major J.P. Pendry:
    First – Thank You for your service to our country. If it were not for the men and women of your caliber, these ‘meat heads’ wouldn’t even have a voice. But do they realize this? My son is currently serving in Iraq and when I hear people of the same mind set as the politicians you listed say that they support the troops, it is the most absurd oxymoronic statement they could spew.

    Thank you for articulating what so many feel and think. This needs to be forwarded not only to ‘those’ politicians but also to Hollywood, starting with Danny Glover and Harry Belafonte. – oh, and New York. Starting there with Barbara Walter’s program, ‘The View’. I’m sure Rosey O’Donnell could use the material. Once again, she should be thanking our military for allowing her to live the life she currently does with out fear and to be able to spew ridiculous and dangerous comments that puts my son and the sons and daughters of others in more harms way by siding with the enemy.

    I am grateful to you, sir.

  10. Once again, a pseudo military expert tries to play politician and Secretary of State at the same time. Obviously this little nazi wannabe isn’t qualifried for either. He’ll never be big enough to live in Kerry’s shadow, and as a veteran of two wars mysef, one of them being George War One (1990-91), this posturing warrior who supports a pack of draft dodging white collar criminals will never be allowed in my house either.

    The dolt who fowarded this pice of neocon drivel to me is a born-again trailier dweller up some dark hollow.

  11. [...] Posted by dankleinsorge on June 12th, 2007 A fellow pro-Thompson blogger turned me on to this letter from his site. [...]

  12. Typical J.D. Keep after ‘em!

  13. Tim Lynch can kiss my ass. Talk about a wannabee, who died and made him such a prick.I agree with the Sgt.mj. I’m a Viet Nam combat veteran and believe me anybody that thinks Kerry is anything but a self centered ass and a coward is delusional and has never been close to or around a combat zone, so once again Tim kiss my ass. Hugs and kisses, Kent

  14. Finally someone tells it like it is. Thanks J.D. Pendry! You seem to have expressed the sentiments of millions. Poor Tim sounds so misinformed. Hopefully he will see reality more clearly in the future. All might not be lost though. Those on the axis might even change directions if they could each be fitted with a glass belly button so that they could actually see the reality in front of them and the harm they are doing.

  15. To Ken Larson and his conspiracy theory of the MIC. Provide some other references other than Vanity Fair, who consistently publishes Anti-American diatribes as NEWS.
    And the very far leftist site RoseColoredGlasses. Another wacko conspiracy site.

    Ken, just because your paranoid, doesn’t mean that someone isn’t out to get ya.

    And Tim Lynch can kiss my hairy retired military butt.

    SEMPER FI CSM Pendry.

  16. AMEN! I agree totally with your views! AND I AM going to forward this site onwards!

  17. Hooah!! CSM Pinder.

    Great post. Great comments above. I will be linking this to my blog as soon as I can.

  18. Nothing like a profound “kiss my butt” to show people you’re thinking. Secondly, I don’t think anyone has ever referred to Vanity Fair as news. Except you, that is. Besides. Critique the facts, not the source. Lastly, this process of exchanging freedoms for safety from the terrorists is wholly un-American, and reeks of fascism. Hitler asked for the tools to get the job done, too. It started with terrorism there, too. The real problem is people like J.D. Pendry who support the administrations choice to redact the constitution to make us safe. Screw that, you nancies. I’d rather be free than safe any day. That’s the American way. So, rather than continue to sling mud at the “haters”, realize that they represent a majority in this great nation that is against this horseshit. If you can’t appreciate democracy, maybe you should move to Russia where they do things the way you like it.

    God Bless America

  19. I invite all to read “A Briight shining Lie” by Neal Sheehan. It is a book written about the Vietnam war and the corruption and lack of will to fight on the part of the South Vietnamese and the ineptness on our part. We wasted 54,000+ good Americans and untold billions on a war against an enemy that is now a trading partner. That is why war should only be used when there is absolutely no alternative (like WWll). I served in Thailand during that period and the only combat I saw was in Bangkok and getting a good table at the O.Club. I was part of the problem.

  20. Sir,

    Should we attack N. Korea next? Iran? Russia? China?
    When does it end? It doesn’t seem to matter to you that both Vietnam and Iraq were both mistakes. You do not learn from history. Conservative warmongers are the real ones who have blood all over themselves. All the while their pockets get fatter while they sell us all out.

    • Again, people’s assumption that conservatives are “rich” is a huge fallacy. The fight for freedom must continue on. You need us “warmongers” to preserve your petty life, and as the most powerful country in the world, it is in our duty to come to the side of the less fortunate to preserve, restore, or help begin lives of freedom for our fellow beings.

  21. Tim Lynch, Is English your first language? You are a joke!
