Got this one off the Texas Hunting Forum....I like it.

Three Reporters and a Marine

Katie Couric, Charlie Gibson, Brian Williams and a tough old U.S. Marine Sergeant were captured by terrorists in Iraq. The leader of the Iraqi terrorists told them he'd grant each of them one last request before they were beheaded and dragged naked through the streets.

Katie Couric said, ''Well, I'm a Southerner, so I'd like one last plate of fried chicken.'' The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with the chicken. Couric ate it all and said, ''Now I can die content.''

Charlie Gibson said, ''I live in New York, so I'd like to hear the song The Moon and Me' one last time..'' The terrorist's leader nodded to another terrorist who had studied the Western world and knew the music. He returned with some rag-tag musicians and played the song. Gibson was satisfied.

Brian Williams said, ''I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe someday, someone will hear it and know that I was on the job until the end.'' The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Williams dictated his comments. He then said, ''Now I can die happy.''

The leader turned and said, ''And now, Mr. US Marine, what is your final wish?''

''Kick me in the a$$,'' said the Marine.

''What!'' asked the Islamic terrorist, 'Will you mock us in your last hour?''

''No, I'm NOT kidding. I want you to kick me in the a$$,'' insisted the Marine.

So the terrorist shoved him into the yard and kicked him in the Butt. The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9 mm pistol from inside his uniform and shot the leader dead. In the resulting confusion, he emptied his sidearm on six terrorists, with his knife he slashed the throat of one with an AK-47, which he took and sprayed the rest of the terrorists, killing another eleven!

In a flash, all of them were either dead or fleeing for their lives.

As the Marine was untying Couric, Gibson and Williams, they asked him, ''Why didn't you just shoot them all in the first place? Why did you ask him to kick you?''

''What?'' replied the Marine, ''and have you three Idiots report that I was the aggressor?”

I would say it was written as a joke, but based on factors that unfortunately are all too true.
