a small dose of reality

keeping it semi real, promoting conservatives, taking potshots at fools, democrats other than Obama, liberals, the left, know it alls, hillary clinton, the dnc, etc., reviews of models, pundits and blogs

Grandmother Shows More Bravery than democratic Politicians

@ 08:58 PM (28 months, 18 days ago)

If faced with this situation, our democratic political friends would run crying home saving their own sorry butts first.  Get this:

SYDNEY (Reuters) - An Australian grandmother who saved a friend from the jaws of a crocodile by jumping on the giant reptile's back has been awarded Australia's highest civilian bravery award.

Alicia Sorohan was awarded the Star of Courage after risking her life to save a friend who was dragged from his tent by the crocodile during a camping trip in the remote far north of tropical Queensland state in October 2004.

Then 60, Sorohan jumped on the 4.2 m (14 feet) crocodile's back as it dragged him from a tent while the man's horrified wife tried to both pull him free and protect their baby.

  1. Whoa! Granny kicks croc butt!

    Congressional leaders would probably ask the UN to sanction the crocodile, and if it still didn't give up the man, they would ask the UN for a resolution...or 17.
