Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, Cokie Roberts, and a tough U.S. 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.”
Peter Jennings said, “I am Canadian, so I’d like to hear the song “O
Canada” one last time.” The leader nodded to a terrorist who had
studied the Western world and knew the music. He returned with some
rag-tag musicians and played the anthem. Jennings sighed and declared
he could now die peacefully.
Cokie Roberts 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
Roberts dictated some comments. She then said, “Now I can die happy.”
The leader turned and said, “And now, Mr. U.S. Marine, what is your
final wish?”
“Kick me in the ass,” 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 ass,” insisted the
Marine. So the leader shoved him into the open, and kicked him in the
ass.
The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9 mm
pistol from inside his cammies, and shot the leader dead. In the
resulting confusion, he leapt to his knapsack, pulled out his M4
carbine and sprayed the Iraqis with gunfire. In a flash, all the
Iraqis were either dead or fleeing for their lives.
As the Marine was untying Rather, Jennings, and Roberts, they asked
him, “Why didn’t you just shoot them in the beginning? Why did you
ask them to kick you in the ass first?”
“What,” replied the Marine, “and have you three Assholes report that
I was the aggressor?
