Subject: A smart marine hoorah!!!!!!!!


Dan Rather, Katie Couric, and a 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.'

Katie Couric 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 Couric
dictated some comments. She t hen said, 'Now I can die happy.'

The leader turned and said, 'And now, Mr. Marine tough guy, what is your
final wish?'

'Kick me in the a**,' 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 a**,' insisted the Marine


So the leader shoved him into the open, and Kicked him in the a**. The
Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9 mm pistol from
under his flack jacket, and shot the leader dead. In the resulting confusion
he jumped to his knapsack, pulled out his M4 carbine and sprayed the other
terrorists with gunfire. In a flash, all of them were either dead or fleeing
for their lives.

As the marine was untying Rather and Couric, they asked him, 'Why didn't you
just shoot them in the beginning? Why did you ask them to kick you in the
a** first?'

What???' replied the Marine, 'and have you two report that I was the
aggressor?'
