US Marines Andrew McClaren and J. W. Cortes went on FOX and Friends this morning to talk about their new NBC reality show “Stars Earn Stripes”. McClaren challenged lib Stephen Colbert to debate him on the merits of the show.
Cortes and McClaren also blasted international far left leader Desmond Tutu who called for axing the show. Cortes asked, “It’s ironic that the show you’re criticizing is celebrating soldiers, the same soldiers that have given you the right to criticize our show on their backs, with their lives.” McClaren added, “I’d like to know what he’s doing for veterans right now.”

Tutu is part of the black racilist gang in SA. Go look up what Winnie Mandela did while her husband was in jail (“Necklaces”). Freaking scumbags. And not a peep from the great “bishop”.

Sorry. racialist.
mg4us commented:
Perhaps Tutu should spend more time worrying about the poor and violence in South Africa and across the African Continent. . .Please
These Holier than thou phony nobel peace people (and Obama is another). . .
Where is Tutu on the horrors of the massacres occurring in Africa by Muslims against Christians in Nigeria, Sudan, Mali, Niger, Liberia. . .as well as Egypt
As they say: Put up or shut up!
Robin commented:
Desmond Tutu isn’t a United States citizen so our soldiers haven’t done anything for him. Prior to Nelson Mandela’s election the only interaction he had with soldiers was while he was being arrested and harassed. I spent 25 years in the U.S. Army and these guys are just showing how ignorant they are. Not only that, he has a right to his opinion. Quit being such pussies.
Bogdan from Aussie commented:
#5 Robin, your statement about having spent 25 years is a lie and the ridiculous pen name Robin that you have taken on suggests that you are a feminised half-man rather than a true soldier.
The statement “I spent 25 years (why not 30 or 40?) in the army” sounds as falsely as the “I’m a long time conservative” or “I’m a life long conservative”.
Every time someone writes something of that kind we know it is a BS…
Appart from that, Mandela was and still is an avowed commie and a fraud and was imprisoned for an act of terror he commited.
He began mellowing only when faund himself in prison.
And finally, thanks to him and his commie criminals from ANC, Sout Africa is milion times worse than she was before the commie takeover and on the fast way to become a new Zimbabwe where Mugabe has murdered with deliberately inflicted hunger (on his very BLACK opponents) more than two milion people.
Bogdan from Aussie commented:
Tutu himself has spewed his entire brain out frough his gigantic mouth that he never closes…

Great show. Fitting tribute to our military…to those who serve w/ a quiet valor…they don’t boast about their heroics, so it’s really nice to have real operatives & cops participate & get noticed. Enjoyed learning more about the training & code of the operatives. The show was really well done & has nothing to do w/ glorifying war, rather it highlights patriotic service & the elite skill demanded marines & specIal ops.
If the show was condemning the military, as most Hollywood movies do, Tutu & his Nobel prize wining friends (terrorist Arafat was also a Nobel prize winner)would not be protesting. Sorry, Tutu & Code Pink, most Americans are grateful for our fighting men & women in uniform.
On the show, especially like Navy Seal Chris Kyle who called Todd Palin the man he would like to go to war w/ bc/ of his “Rambo” performance in the mission. Palin, the IronDog champ & father of a son serving in Afghanistan, stole the show among the celebrities w/ a display of heart, determination & athleticism paying respect to all the operatives who offered their knowledge & commitment. (Palin was teamed w/ the two marines featured in this video.)

Tutu’s a commie.
valerie commented:
Did he even see the show, or was he just reacting to a question, describing the show, from press releases? Or did he sign a letter just because somebody asked him to do so?
CommieJuice commented:
This is a good show. I can’t believe it’s on NBC, but seeing that Gen. Wesley Clark is the host, it doesn’t surprise me NBC will allow it solely because of him.
J. W. Cortes gained a lot of my respect on the show. He was in total awe of Todd Palin, he was almost in tears when he was telling Todd how impressed he was with him after the mission, but Todd was more worried about getting the moral up of his teammate than to receive well deserved praise. If you want to watch something very inspirational, watch Todd’s run on the first mission where Navy Seal, Chris Kyle, yes the same Chris Kyle who has 160 confirmed sniper kills, the one who physically put Jesse Ventura in his place after Jesse crashed a Navy Seal wake at a bar, Jesse said we deserve to lose some of the Seals at which point Chris Kyle dropped him with a punch. Anyway, that Chris Kyle is the one who said Todd Palin is Rambo and if he ever went back to war, he would want Todd Palin with him. Good stuff!
Patty commented:
I watched this show and it was enlightening but what I really took away from this show was the actors and their appreciation for our troops.
Anything that gives them help and appreciates them, IS WONDERFUL. It seems that this administration isn’t giving them the credit due.
Oldlineconservative.com commented:
I have for the longest time believed that Bishop Tutu is a communist. If so, he is not a Christian. Communism and Christianity cannot use the same foot path.
Tutu is that kind of professional preacher who tries to reduce Christianity to a few pious platitudes but no one should be taken in by this because
“Christianity is a way of getting rid of sin through Jesus of Nazareth.” [J. Gresham Machen]

THANK YOU GUYS!!
It Has Always Been The Soldier
It is the soldier,
not the President who gives US Democracy.
It is the soldier,
not the Congress who takes Care of US.
It is the soldier,
not the Reporter who has given us Freedom of Press.
It is the soldier,
not the Poet who has given us Freedom of Speech.
It is the soldier,
not the campus [community] Organizer who
has given us the Freedom to Demonstrate.
It is the soldier,
who salutes the flag;
who serves beneath the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag,
that allows the protester to burn the flag.
~ Father Dennis O’Brien, US Marine Corp. Chaplain
God Bless America!
God Bless Soldiers everywhere for putting THEIR
lives on the line to protect us ALL from terrorism!

#7 Bogdan, Well said except for the personal attacks and your objections to freedom of thought and speech. Of course, if you are from Australia, your opinion doesn’t count anyhow. Australians are “subjects” aren’t they? Try to fix your own country before you criticize others.
It is simply amazing how you know everything! Of course, since Robin is my real name, I guess you’re a pussy, too, since you hide behind a fake identity. Why should you have any credibility with anyone?
