A marine squad was marching north of Basra when they came upon an Iraqi
soldier badly injured and unconscious. Nearby, on the opposite side of
the road, was an American Marine in a similar but less serious state.
The Marine was conscious and alert. As first aid was given to both men,
the Marine was asked what had happened.
The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along the
highway and coming south was a heavily armed Iraqi soldier. Seeing each
other we both took cover."
"What happened then?" the corpsman asked.
"I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable low life slug, and
he yelled back: 'John Kerry, Ted Kennedy, Bill and Hillary Clinton are
miserable slime balls'. "
"We were standing there shaking hands when a truck hit us."
