It could be the usual "hate the troops" philosophy from being really close to the San Fran Morons. You know. The city government that would not let the Marines film a commercial in their fine gay city. Disgusting it is.
From Michelle Malkin
Two days ago, an e-mail about the rude treatment of Marines and soldiers returning from Iraq started making the rounds on the Internet. The brother of one of the mistreated Marines who described the incident at Oakland Airport works on the Hill. The brother forwarded the Marine’s e-mail around. The e-mail is real, contrary to the Daily Kos nut who dismissed it as “fake” without any evidence whatsoever (can you say p-r-o-j-e-c-t-i-o-n). I contacted the Marine chaplain to verify the e-mail on Friday. He confirmed.
In short: “On September 27th 204 Marines and soldiers who were returning from Iraq were not allowed into the passenger terminal at Oakland International Airport.Instead they had to deplane about 400 yards away from the terminal where the extra baggage trailers were located. This was the last scheduled stop for fuel and food prior to flying to Hawaii where both were based. The trip started in Kuwait on September 26th with a rigorous search of checked and carry on baggage by US Customs. All baggage was x-rayed with a ‘backscatter’ machine AND each bag was completely emptied and hand searched. After being searched, checked bags were marked and immediately placed in a secure container. Carry on bags were then x rayed again to ensure no contraband items were taken on the plane. While waiting for the bus to the airport, all personnel were in quarantined in a fenced area and were not allowed to leave.” Nevertheless, Oakland forbade them from entering its terminal. According to the Marine, a Lieutenant who served in Afghanistan with the same unit in 2006 noted that Oakland had treated troops the same way before. He “was almost arrested by the TSA for getting belligerent about them not letting the Marines into the terminal,” despite more rigorous screening prior to landing in Oakland. Both JFK airport and in Germany had no problem with the Marines entering their terminals.
Simply amazing. Click the link back to Michelle's place and read the response from the airport Nazis. She also has the originating links to the message that has sparked this response. Truly amazing and typical answer coming from the typical bleeding heart liberal trash of "it isn't my fault...the devil made me do it..." One day, a liberal will shock the world by accepting responsibility for their own actions and quit blaming someone else.
Treating American Heroes like this will not be accepted and will not go unnoticed and we will not allow the repeats of the 60s and 70s.
I wonder who to believe...a known Communist led group like the KOSmonoffs or a decorated United States Marine upon a fresh return from the war.
Catch the wave:
oops!
