I'm surprised Ilario Pentano wasn't fragged |
|
for all of you who don't know him, he was a guest on Jon Stewart last night.
That guy was completely nuts. Er, IS completely nuts.
His sanctimonious preaching aside, why would he rather be in Iraq than at the birth of his own child?
Why would he show his men tapes of 9/11 to justify their presence in Iraq?
He is a piss poor officer, leader, and author.
IMO.

3. He was on Hardball last night, and Matthews was impressed with |
|
him. Recommended he consider going to law school at the end of the interview. Pantano is a miserable little sociopath.

I've seen/heard in a long time. This guy's ego and self-importance was so big I'm surprised Jon could even get into the same room with him.

44. Two things about that... |
|
In watching the interview for a second time, it was clear that his reference to 9/11 was primarily to show his troops "what it is like when America is under attack", and that's a legitimate point. He did, however, go on to say that fight in Iraq was to ensure that we don't get attacked again on American soil, which of course is crapola. And, as you said, Stewart pointed that out to him.

23. Do you mean for Pantano? |

Because that may well be. But, the question is: Isn't society responsible for men like Pantano?

LOL! Your comment is reminiscent of the knuckledragger's response when we object to cutting taxes for the rich: "If you're so in love with taxes, why don't you give more?"

hugs and kisses?
and YOU keep in mind that the one witness "recanted".
Wonder who turned the screws? Or was "he" threatened with a bullet in the back?

in MOS school I had the privilege of getting to know a bunch Marines (we were in DOD school; all services attended).
those guys were a HOOT!!!!
Never saw a fight they didn't want to start, or back down from.
Having said that, they weren't raving lunatics like this moran.

17. The guy is a first class creep. |
|
The bit about taking pics of 9/11 with him to show his troops why they were in Iraq pissed me off. Then he went into a rather detailed account of returning home to his pregnant wife and while with her at the hospital, wished he were back in combat with his "other family". There was just something about him - something insincere and completely phony. I think he's a sociopath.
