Mark the way you speak of Vinney are you sure your not Vinney?

Bingo!

Mark the way you speak of Vinney are you sure your not Vinney?

100% sure.... but i'm 150% YOU ain't Vinny.

Thanks for the compliment PG!

Thanks for the compliment PG!

you're most welcome.

(see, vinny ...HE would have known it wasn't a compliment)

Again I thank you for your most wonderful compliment. You see if someone of your ego doesn't like me that's a HUGE compliment!

ah...i see you're now running on fumes, hit the wall, and now you're playing your golden hits!

damn, son.....which golden oldie is next up, homosexual name calling? calling me "planetfag"? or is it time for you to tell me you can't read my replies cos you've buried your head in the sand and put me on "blocked"?

the pic of you with your hands over your eyes and yelling "I CAN'T READ YOU!" just cracks me up!

jeff, as far as "ego" goes..and the need to WIN... while you may not possess those qualities of vinny's that i mentioned you do have one quality Vinny lacks.... YOUR truly TEXAS sized ego.

again you illustrate that hypocrites have no sense or understanding of irony.

You see if someone of your ego doesn't like me that's a HUGE compliment!

and who says i don't like you jeff? i've had some very enjoyable music and equip conversations with you. and i have big respect for your playing and writing skills.

what i don't like ABOUT you... is that you like to throw YOUR weight around bitching about this and that when it comes to politics, but as soon as anyone expresses different views than your's...you get all bent outta shape.

next thing...out come the claws and heavy artillerary and in two seconds flat it's a jihad.... a no holds barred holy war to the finish!

so, i'm gonna say....you go ahead and bang your drum daily w the other conservative obama bashers here. i'm out.

but if you wanna talk music, or equip, movies, brews of choices, etc w me.....i'm in.

this brief go round has reminded me why i stopped engaging in political scraps here. not worth it.

Don't obfuscate my thread with minor bs. VINNY has nothing to do with this.


I think that you will enjoy this!



This Sergeant Major to tell it like it is!

That's why every visiting Flag officer to any unit will usually speak to the Sergeant Major and get his views on the unit, before talking to the ass kissers.

It's the DUTY of every Sergeant Major to tell it like it is. Sergeants Major do NOT need to kiss any asses and cannot go any higher in rank. The Sergeant Major is the highest ranking enlisted man in any unit they serve in.

Sergeants Major have ONLY one job: "To advise the Commander on ALL matters that pertain to THE ENLISTED PERSONNEL in the unit", and they will ALWAYS tell it like it is, for that very reason!

From the Podium:
J. D. Pendry, Retired Sergeant Major, USMC This retired USMC Sergeant Major has his Stuff together.

"Jimmy Carter, you are 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 USS 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 9/11/2001".

"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 military of terrorizing women and children in Iraq ... You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, with 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 to the Vietnamese. Iraq, like Vietnam, is another war that you were for, before you were against it."

"The late John Murtha, said our military was broken. He said we can't win militarily in Iraq. He accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa. Okinawa? And the Democrats called him their military expert! Maybe he suffered a traumatic brain injury while he was off building his war hero resume? He was a sad, pitiable, corrupt, and washed up old fool, not a true Marine. He wouldn't amount to a good pimple on a real Marine's ass, a phony and a disgrace".

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 Southeast Asia to the Communists. Then you wanted to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us! See Dick run!"

"Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Pat Leahy, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, the Hollywood Leftist morons, et al, to name a few ad nauseam: Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our former 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. Now Obama want's to start his own war and half of you idiots support him! "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 p es 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.

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."

"Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within.

Semper Fi".

J. D. Pendry - Sergeant Major, USMC, Retired A very savvy man. He has nailed it down pretty well.

Too bad it won't do any good. There won't be 1 in 10 that receive this who will forward it. Please prove me wrong!

You should meet Regimental Sgt Major Van Breda (Rhodesian Armored Car Regt). I respected him too much to actually be (too) afraid of him - but when he said 'jump' I bloody well jumped!

The few times he said anything nice about me I felt ten feet tall.

Talbot

btw - to all. I'm not as stoned as you might think from my typing of late. New keyboard is a piece of junk!!

Probably a great guy and leader, Mike.

No I wouldn't think you were stoned... My computer is showing wear, and I have figure out what to do. Sometimes I have to type it twice and sometimes it just gets erased.

I don't blame it on God... But I am starting to blame it on my frozen fingers.

You see if someone of your ego doesn't like me that's a HUGE compliment!

and who says i don't like you jeff? i've had some very enjoyable music and equip conversations with you. and i have big respect for your playing and writing skills.

Mark, feel free anytime to not spar with me. You are the most arrogant person I have ever met. You have gotten everything you want politically. Your guy whom you are Soooo fond of is winning in every possible way. When someone on here vents frustrations you come running in his defense rubbing salt in our political wounds, that is why you are so despised on this site! You enjoy it. Like I said the political winds (worm) is going to change. Just a matter of time. I appreciate the compliment about my playing that actually means something to me coming from someone as musically educated as yourself. As for me like I said I am as frustrated by the filthy politics that are going on these days as one can get. I don't think I'm alone. For now you get to win. In 2016 maybe not.

Mark, feel free anytime to not spar with me.

"spar w you"???? sheeeeet, more like using you for a speed bag!

You are the most arrogant person I have ever met.

really? then there's someone you need to meet. jeff...meet jeff.

You have gotten everything you want politically. Your guy whom you are Soooo fond of is winning in every possible way.

bullshit. but i know you actually believe that crap.

When someone on here vents frustrations you come running in his defense rubbing salt in our political wounds, that is why you are so despised on this site!

sorry, that makes no sense....you're saying i "come running in his DEFENSE"????

and "despised"??? quit acting like a spoiled HS girl who didn't get asked to the prom. i'm not interested in popularity contests nor should any other grownup posting on a board.

if folks like yourself feel threatened because i have the balls and spine to state MY opinions, and you choose to despise me for that.....that only shows how weak your beliefs must be. that you feel the need to go to the mat when someone is so "arrogant" to express different views.....that's indicative that your house must be built on sand (and deep down you fear that and resent when it's pointed out)

really, jeff...you need to man up and live w it. stop being a crybaby about it. i have no problems w you, your cronies, or anyone else "venting frustrations" and expressing views different than mine....$hit, how times times a day are those "frustrations" posted on BM?!?!??!

but if i disagree i just might say so.....and this, THIS is what burns your keester. you want YOUR say....but because you're "frustrated" you have no tolerance to hear anything that challenges your "facts".

in your book that makes me arrogant. if that's YOUR takeaway, so be it. but i don't expect you to stop voicing your views, so don't expect that from me.

"You enjoy it."

what...being one of the lone voices who stands up to your gang who continually look for any and everything to bitch about the current admin? nah...i don't 'enjoy it'. nor is it rubbing salt in wounds.

but if this is gonna be a place where YOUR team gets a platform.....stop whining all girlie like when someone has a different take on things and doesn't buy into all the crap that faux news spews out. if you wanna eat that sh*t up cos it's mmmm, mmmm, good to the last drop.....good for you. go for it. me, thanks i'll pass. and i just might choose to vent MY "frustrations" about it. see...it's a two street.


ok....that out of the way, there's one other thing i have to compliment you on, jeff.

even though we disagree on politics.. you're not a liar. i've never known you to lie to win a skirmish here. and i respect that because a person who lies is someone completely lacking of all integrity and never to be trusted. i won't have anything to do someone like that.

once again, anyone who wants to talk music...ya know where to find me. (jimmy....hats off to ya. you had that figured out long before me)

you guys can have your little political sandbox to spout off in. i'm done w that.

Amen. Goodbye.

Thank you Mark, and yes it is obvious to everyone on this site you come running to the Marxist commie's rescue (as if he needs it) Just like the media. That RIGHT THERE is the conservative frustration. This man is the biggest LIAR ever to occupy the whitehouse! Worse than tricky Dick Nixon! Your post is somewhat hypocritical (as usual) you say you don't have anything to do with liars yet you support the biggest one in HISTORY! I don't mean to use your words against you, just sayin. Please spare us the need to post the obvious lies this man has told, also no need to post Bush's lies we know those too! You can keep your head in the sand.
One more tidbit of information, are you aware that since 2010 more Muslims have entered the U.S. than ALL central American countries combined? YOUR President is now going to allow Iran the ability to enrich Uranium and we ALL know what they will use that for. ISIS has been so emboldened by the Marxist that they are now seen around Houston wearing ISIS patches on their clothing. I know you Libs. think we are over-reacting but DHS KNOWS they are planning to attack us again and this time it will make 911 look like a birthday party. When that happens and the FBI stated the other day that it is not a matter of if but when! THAT is the day us conservatives WILL be blaming all the moronic liberals for affording them the rights to do it. REMEMBER THESE WORDS!

thanks for that post, jeff. i trust you will understand when i don't respond to any of your political OPINIONS that you put forth.

i'm done talking politics here. completely pointless as i see it. have a great day.
