One marine said to the other one night, "I've been in Afganistan for a year, and I haven't shot a single terrorist." The other Marine said, "run up the hill and scream, 'To Hell With Osama bin Laden!' and when they rush out, start shooting."
So the Marine did just that, he ran up the hill and shouted, "To Hell with Osama Bin Laden!" Immediately afterwards, a man came out of a cave and yelled, "To Hell with George Bush!" Dejected, the marine went back down the hill.
His fellow marine asked if it worked. He wsaid, "yeah, but only democrats came out, and we can't shoot them."
