US Marine Gunny

Dan Rather, Katie Couric, and a tough old U.S. Marine Gunny were all captured by terrorists in Iraq. The leader of the terrorists told them
that he would grant them each one last request before they were
beheaded

Dan Rather said, "Well, I'm a Texan; so I'd like one last bowlful of
hot spicy chili."

The leader nodded to an underling who left and returned with the
chili.

Rather ate it all and said, "Now I can die content."

Katie Couric 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 till the
end."

The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and
Couric dictated some comments.

She then said, "Now I can die happy."

The leader turned and said, "And now, Mr. U.S. Marine, what is your
final wish?"

"Kick me in the ass," said the Marine.

"What?" asked the leader? "Will you mock us in your last hour?"

"No, I'm not kidding. I want you to kick me in the ass!," insisted
the Marine.

So the leader shoved him into the open, and kicked him in the ass.

The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a 9-mm
pistol from inside his cammies, and shot the leader dead. In the resulting
confusion, he jumped to his knapsack, pulled out his M-4 carbine and sprayed the Iraqis with gunfire. In a flash, all the Iraqis were either dead or fleeing for their lives.

As the Marine was untying Rather and Couric, they asked him, "Why
didn't you just shoot them in the beginning? Why did you ask them to kick
you in the ass first?"

"What," replied the Marine, "and have you two assholes report that I
was the aggressor?!"
