Marines and the media

Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, Cokie Roberts, and a tough old U.S. Marine
Sergeant were all captured by terrorists in Iraq. The leader of the
terrorists told them that he would grant them each one last request before they were beheaded.

Dan Rather said, "Well, I'm a Texan; so I'd like one last bowlful of hot
"spicy chili." The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with the chili. Rather ate it all and said, "Now I can die content."

Peter Jennings said, "I am Canadian, so I'd like to hear the song "O
Canada" one last time.
"The leader nodded to a terrorist who had studied the Western world and
knew the music. He returned with some rag-tag musicians and played the anthem. Jennings sighed and declared he could now die peacefully.

Cokie Roberts said, "I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe someday someone will hear it and know that I was on the job till the end."

The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Roberts
dictated some comments.
She then said, "Now I can die happy."

The leader turned and said, "And now, Mr. U.S. Marine, what is your final wish?"

"Kick me in the !!!," said the Marine.

"What?" asked the leader? "Will you mock us in your last hour?"

"No, I'm not kidding. I want you to kick me in the !!!," insisted the
Marine. So the leader shoved him into the open and kicked him in the !!!.

The Marine went sprawling. As he rolled to his knees pulled a 9mm pistol from inside his cammies and shot the leader dead.
In the resulting confusion he leapt to his knapsack, pulled out his M4
carbine and sprayed the Iraqis with gunfire.
In a flash all the Iraqis were either dead or fleeing for their lives.

As the Marine was untying Rather, Jennings, and Roberts they asked him, "Why didn't you just shoot them in the beginning? Why did you ask them to kick you in the !!! first?"

"What," replied the Marine, "and have you three a-holes report that I was the aggressor?"
