Dear “John Travolta” (and no, I'm not referring to the actor)
We haven’t had the pleasure of meeting, but since you felt the need to perturb my wife with your myopic, sub-literate rantings about my service here in Iraq I figured I’d address them in an equally public forum. So here goes…
how many kids did you rape today, son of a bitch?
Today that number was a whopping zero. Just like yesterday, and the day before. And every other day we’ve been out here. I know you probably have difficulty with something as complex as “numbers” so maybe I have to explain the concept of zero. Zero indicates the absence of any or all units under consideration. So if I were to use the word “zero” in a sentence it might read like this.
“John Travolta has zero dignity”
or perhaps
“John Travolta has zero functioning neurons in his cerebral cortex”
That should make it easy enough to understand my foreign friend! On to the next illuminating question…
can you sleep good, f****n' murderer?
Sadly no, I don’t sleep all that well. Maybe it’s the heat, or just the stacatto missions, but I just haven’t been able to get a solid five hours of rest in the last few weeks. I’m sure you have been in the same situation once or twice. You know the whole “laying in a sleeping bag in a combat zone, staring at the ceiling, half sick with the thought that there was something else you might have fit into your 20 hour day” thing. Oh, wait a second I forgot – you aren’t a soldier. I'd try to compare the stress of my job with the stress inherent to your job, but I really don't know all that much about operating rides at a carnival..
Your next comment wasn’t really a question as much as it was a proclamation, but I’ll respond to it anyway.
nobody wants you in this world, bitch
Really? I’m stunned. All this time I have been fooling myself! All I needed was your brilliant insight to reveal the truth before my very eyes! It all makes sense now – that is why my wife and family have been so supportive! Thank you for helping me uncover their secret plot to destroy me with care packages, prayers, and letters!
John, I gotta hand it to you - your last line was a real piece of work. You wouldn't know reality if it walked up to you, bit you on the ass, and announced “I AM REALITY”. Seriously, was that a conclusion or simply the place where you got tired of thinking?
Do you know, you kill kids and women, but, who f****n with your wife?, yes a latin lover.
Wow - have you ever considered a career as a journalist? A wordsmith like you could really be useful in an interview – you could just answer all the questions yourself instead of waiting for a pesky response. Although you already attempted to provide your own answers, let me give you a slightly more accurate account. I don’t make it a practice to kill women or children. I am a soldier, not a butcher. In your ideological world those two may seem synonymous, but that only shows your complete and utter lack of good sense. As for my wife… all I will say is your knowledge about women is about as accurate as your understanding of our mission here in Iraq.
Now that we have taken care of your postings let me give you a little advice. Read. Learn. Stop spouting empty Marxist dogma and take the time to find out what Iraq is really like. And if that is too difficult for you to grasp then remember, there is nothing wrong with having nothing worthwhile to say - unless you insist on saying it. If you need a reminder I'll post your email address again just in case anyone else want to drop you a line. [email protected]
