Commentary about this is completely unwarranted. There is no mention of group size, distance, positions fired from, or many other factors that are involved in marksmanship.
So why the hell are the wimps and chimps doing so?

Bob, I have contended that for a very long time, and I have had MANY of the Bush Bot Brigade call me every kind of un-American asshole you can imagine…

The president is a gutless asshat, he panders to everyone, the Iraqis, the Mexicans, the U.N. and anyone else that he fears offending…

And there are many in the Officer Corps that kiss HIS ass almost as much as a couple of notorious female bloggers that will blast you, say you’re not a Vet, never served, say you hate your nation and do all they can to ruin you simply because you have the balls to call it like it really is concerning the love of their lives, Bush…

Several folks that have read here a lot longer than you are familiar with the people I refer to and can give you chapter and verse on it, but I have tried, for a very long time now, to tell folks that Bush was an absolute screw-up, and if you’ll remember when that group of retired Generals came out against Bush, I knew 2 of those men personally and I supported them in their positions, well, these Bush Bots blasted me as usual and the Generals as well, saying they weren’t BUSH Generals, they had earned their flag under Clinton and that was where their loyal lay…

And you have got to know, that is pure bullshit, the 2 that screamed the loudest were Bush’s biggest fans…

This administration knows NO shame and there are many senior officers, all the way through from say O-6 to O-10 that will, as you said, do anything to hit that next pay grade…

They are truly despicable..

The soldier has already been disciplined and Bush wants to punish him again? Doesn’t that violate the Constitution of the United States and the Manual for Courts Martial?

Although the soldier did a stupid thing, I think he’s been paid enough enough by putting his life on the line by being in Iraq.

What disgusts me is the President and General Officers groveling to Iraqi tribal leaders…kissing a Koran…disgusting. What some officers won’t do to get promoted.

Actually the Koran makes excellent target practice. The soldier got 14 shots into a small book. Way to go. I’ve got to remind myself to bring a copy or two to target practice next time I go. I wonder how well will I do.

I’m stocking up on Koran’s in case there is a shortage of toilet paper.

My ass isn’t oversized but there is still plenty of room for turban wearing SOB’s lips near the crack!

As far as the soldier shooting the “holy book of Islam” I would offer my own apology:
I am sorry he only shot it, had he soaked it in pigs blood and pissed on it first then I would be very PROUD of him.

I wonder how many Bibles have been used as target practice? Are we ever going to hear apologies from the Saudis for their people actually SHREDDING Bibles at the airport?

I’m with you….they can kiss my over sized American ass!
