Marines Love The Guy From Boston

A Voice For Marines And Their Fellow Americans

While United States Marines protect our country's interests abroad and quietly agonize over how the politicians run the wars in Iraq and Afghanistanon, Big Joe Ligotti ,The Guy From Boston, has the freedom and the balls to "tell it to the marines" and everyone else, right here in America. Admittedly, his style is unique. But make no mistake, the guy is a patriot. You may be offended by his delivery, language, intensity or just his opinions but you have to admit that what he says is worth listening to. The liberal minded and politically correct crowd have managed to let the needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many and have succeeded in making this country a laughing stock. Marines and Americans need guys like Joe - guys who tell it like it is for US. Because if Marines do it they get in trouble and if I do it I am just an angry man. It takes talent and character to do what Joe does.

Marines On Joe's Side

I first wrote about Joe Ligotti in this blog over a year ago (August 2007)in a post titled: The USO Show Marines Will Never See. He was ranting about how he wanted to come to Iraq and pass out cigars to the troops. He professed his love for our men and women in uniform then and nothing has changed. Speaking for myself, a former marine and lover of all things USMC, advocate of the Corps in all respects, supporter of all of our people in uniform I respect Joe Ligotti and his right to say what he feels. Most marines are from homespun backgrounds and would agree with his values in theory, if not his delivery. But sometimes Joe, me and my marine friends out there worry about you, when something or someone really gets you pissed, you look like you will explode any second. But I guess if you were more low key and changed your rants to runts it just wouldn't be The Guy From Boston anymore, would it?

Marines Will Accept No Substitutes

It would seem that Joe has had his problems lately. He has gone from TheGuyFromBoston.com to TheGuyFromBoston.net due to a disagreement with his former partner. This guy David Garafalo, was the guy that registered the original .com domain and when they couldn't resolve their differences he kept the website for himself and declared that "just like James Bond, anyone can play The Guy From Boston." And if that wasn't bad enough he then tried to actually convince us that his cheap substitute could replace Joe. Tell that to the Marines, Davy Boy, and see how far it flies. Forget about it! James Bond my aching ass. First of all there is no other Joe Ligotti, an American original and second, everyone knows that Sean Connery will always be James Bond!

Justice For The Marine Corps And Everyone Else

Thankfully a judge decided that this was blatent trademark infringement on the part of Garifalo and Joe is back as the one and only, USMC approved, The Guy From Boston. Spread the word my fellow Marines, Joe is back and better than ever.
