Pete -Major General Peter Cosgrove should also be added to our very short list of modern heroes. You’ll LOVE his response to the addle-brained noodle-witted limp wilted lettuce leftie here! Joan

| THE BEST COMEBACK LINE for 2007… For those that don’t know him, Major General Peter Cosgrove is an “Australian treasure!”General Cosgrove was interviewed on the radio recently. You’ll love his reply to the lady who interviewed him concerning guns and children. It is a portion of an ABC interview between a female broadcaster and General Cosgrove who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military headquarters.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
So, General Cosgrove, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
We’re going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery and shooting.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Shooting! That’s a bit irresponsible, isn’t it?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don’t see why, they’ll be properly supervised on the rifle range.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
Don’t you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?
GENERAL COSGROVE:
I don’t see how. We will be teaching them proper rifle discipline before they even touch a firearm.
FEMALE INTERVIEWER:
But you’re equipping them to become violent killers.
GENERAL COSGROVE:
Well, Ma’am, you’re equipped to be a prostitute, but you’re not one, are you?
The radio went silent and the interview ended

Hello
I don’t know what this means:
“you suck at teh interwebs”
Please could you translate it for the benefit if the other reader of this blog, who does not speak your language?

I think that all Boys in the West ought to be trained to shoot. It may be needed. I was handed a gun when I was 12, by my father. He then told me what to do. He taught me how to use it. It is long gone, but I never forgot the trust he placed in me by letting me use one, even when he was not there.

Perhaps Anon refers to the fact that this story and it’s derivatives are well know as urban legands. i.e. cobblers.

This website is a pefect example of the current state of blogging. Just put down anything, EVEN IF IT IS UNTRUE, why bother checking FACTS? What’s facts have to do with anything…certainly nothing on this website. At least the “swiftboaters” knew they we’re lying and spreading misinformation. This site just copies down anything they get in their inbox and prints it.
