Didn't anybody watch this at Salon? Durkka Durkka? This was pretty PG-13 coming from cannon fodder. The melody was pretty crappy California rock, though.

If Matt Stone and Trey Parker had done this on South Park, everyone would be laughing right along.

Let's worry about the ACTUAL WAR, not some Marine in a performance obviously meant only for his fellow soldiers. God only knows what I'd be laughing about under the same unmercifully stressful circumstances.

I would much rather have this soldier (and others) release tension, anger, and disconnection through song than, say, indiscriminately killing real-live innocent Iraqis.

Because that would be, insensitive and shit.

Imagine that. Soldiers in a brutal, deadly war making fun of the enemy. Give the Marines a break.

Could song by the way.

Watched it twice. Even accounting for quality issues, there is no synchronization between the words and his mouth movement. I would think it was dubbed.

Young soldiers in hard places, under dreadful circumstances may perhaps be excused for poor choices in song writing. One can only wonder what our fathers and grandfathers might have been singing in camp during all the now sanitized wars we’ve come to love. I can live with the stupid cruelty of this Marine’s song, he’s no doubt seen things I haven’t, and while this whole thing makes me sad at so many levels, my greatest sorrow and deepest anger is reserved for the swine that put this young man into a place where three years along in this awful war. everyone in the country he’s here to save is still his enemy, and joke-songs about slaughtering families seem worthy of video taping.

P.S. Someday this young man (God willing) is going to come home; it will be rough justice indeed if he brings all he’s so recently learned overseas about love to the marriage bed of the daughter of someone who still thinks this war was a good idea. And they said irony was dead.

I've never been more proud.

I still can't understand why they think we're satan.

We almost got out of this thing without an eternal war.

That was close.

I'd vote for him.
