Marine Corps General Reinwald was interviewed on the radio the other day
concerning guns and children. Regardless of how you feel about gun laws, you gotta love this!!!! This is one of the best comeback lines of all time.
It is a portion of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female
broadcaster and US Marine Corps General Reinwald who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visit to his military installation.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER: So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
GENERAL REINWALD: We're going to teach them climbing,canoeing, archery,
and shooting.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?
GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on the
rifle range.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER: Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity
to be teaching children?
GENERAL REINWALD: I don't see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle
discipline before they even touch a firearm.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER: But you're equipping them to become violent killers.
GENERAL REINWALD: Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're
not one, are you?
The radio went silent and the interview ended.
You gotta love the Marines.....
Semper Fi!

Then there was the widely distributed exchange between liberal news
reporter and Sec. of State Colin Powell a number of weeks ago. I'm not sure what point the reporter was trying to make, but he asked Powell:
"Do you know that only 13% of Americans can even find Iraq on a map?"
Powell replied:
"I can assure you that all 13% are all U.S. Marines."
