Europe is an idea, a cultural landscape, an intellectual space shaped by history. Europe is the cradle of the modern constitutional democracy, the treasure-house of human rights, of freedom of opinion and expression. Or at least it used to be that, until recently.

It has increasingly been put into danger as our political elite bend their necks before a certain religious dogma which is completely alien to out intellectual history, our values and rule of law. This dogma is gnawing away at the pillars of our system of laws, wherever it is granted the space to do so. This dogma demands total obedience from its followers.

“They should never integrate into our system of values.” That would be “treason” to them and is even punishable by death. They are supposed to conquer and subdue our western world not with tanks, rockets or riflemen something they could never accomplish, anyway. Not through brutal revolt. No, Islam is in no hurry. It has an eternity. A long process of demoralization and slow motion occupation of our weakened child-poor society is foreseen.

The Islamic doctrine is intended to creep into our (more…)

Like all other Viet Nam Era and World War II Veterans, I was promised when I signed on the dotted line both what was written into the contract and what was promised in the oft-stated “oral contract” by recruiters and superiors during my service. Foremost in this was the many verbal assurances that we, as Veterans, and our spouses would have free medical for life. A benefit which has already been cut by Medicare B payments and co-pays for services and prescription drugs received when we become 65 and must join TRICARE for Life.

I found in my email inbox today from Military.com (you can sign up at http://feeds.feedburner.com/militaryadvantage for the emails) a very disturbing article that Senator John McCain (R-AZ) has sent a letter to the Budget Super-Committee stating that he is OK with placing “cuts” in our military benefits on the table.

What is he thinking? Has he forgotten the trials and tribulations of those who wore and are wearing the uniform in defense of our Constitutional Republic? Has he forgotten his own service and the years in the Hanoi Hilton? Has he forgotten the promises (more…)

North Korean Poster

A grim report circulating in the Kremlin today written by Russia’s Northern Fleet is reporting that the United States has ordered a complete media blackout over North Korea’s torpedoing of the giant Deepwater Horizon oil platform owned by the World’s largest offshore drilling contractor Transocean that was built and financed by South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., that has caused great loss of life, untold billions in economic damage to the South Korean economy, and an environmental catastrophe to the United States.

Most important to understand about this latest attack by North Korea against its South Korean enemy is that under the existing “laws of war” it was a permissible action as they remain in a state of war against each other due to South Korea’s refusal to sign the 1953 Armistice ending the Korean War.

To the attack itself, these reports continue, the North Korean “cargo vessel” Dai Hong Dan believed to be staffed by 17th Sniper Corps “suicide” troops left Cuba’s Empresa Terminales Mambisas de La Habana (Port of Havana) on April 18th whereupon it “severely deviated” from its intended course for Venezuela’s Puerto Cabello bringing it to within 209 kilometers (130 miles) of the Deepwater Horizon oil platform which was located 80 kilometers (50 miles) off the coast of the US State of Louisiana where it launched an SSC Sang-o Class Mini Submarine (Yugo class) estimated to have an operational range of 321 kilometers (200 miles).

On the night of April 20th the North Korean Mini Submarine manned (more…)

Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen has stated that Military Pay and Benefit Cuts are on the table as they consider reducing the Defenses Budget by $400B over the next twelve years. (See Adm. Mullen’s remarks at www.military.com/news/article/mullen-says-pay-benefit-cuts-on-the-table.html)

How history repeats itself! When I retired in 1986 after 25 years of service, my “promised,” “oral contract” free medical benefits for life for myself and family were already being decreased. And now I have to purchase Medicare Part B before my TriCare for Life can pick up the difference as secondary rather than primary medical insurance. Additionally, military retirees have had no COLA increases for several years. Adm. Mullen whatever happened to “to care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow and orphan?” (President Lincoln, Second Inaugural Address, March 4, 1865.) Of a truth the servicemen and women of our nation have already sacrificed more than any other segment of this nation!

Where is the President’s sacrifice? Where is the sacrifice of (more…)

There thunders from Mount Sinai God’s injunction, “Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.” To this Paul, the Apostle, added: “Which is the first commandment with promise.” Are We the People, as individuals and as a nation, still seeking the “promise?” Or does it no longer matter? Do we, as Americans, even care that our Constitutional Republic survives so that we might “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity?”

During the Seventeenth Century, many of our ancestors fled the oppression of Europe to come to the New World in search of religious freedom. In 1776 our forefathers were highly resolved to establish a land of Liberty and did so by pledging their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor. During our Civil War, many of our ancestors gave the “last full measure of devotion” so that our nation might have “a new birth of freedom.” Always there have been patriots among our ancestors willing to lay down their lives that others, here and abroad, might continue to live with freedom and liberty.

IN FLANDERS FIELDS
John McCrae

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe!
To you from failing hands, we throw
The torch – be yours to hold it high!
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders Fields.

In just over a month our nation will celebrate its 235^th birthday. Through the many decades since Lexington and Concord, (more…)

If you’re patient; people will eventually tell you what’s on their heart and in their minds.

This Sunday morning, the Secretary of State, may have admitted to something publically, that had been kept private.

Sooner or later the people of this nation will wake up to realize they have been led by people who don’t hold their best interests at heart.

Hopefully before 2012…

TO ALL;

Sorry to have been away for so long; work trumped.

Our continued efforts to reach out to those who would bite off our hands took another turn last week with our agreeing to support efforts to hinder Ghaddafi’s intent to punish the rebels in Libya. While all of us can agree that the world would be better off without him, I fail to see the logic in supporting an organized effort to oust him made up largely of US hating Muslims. We are in the midst of costly endeavors in both Iraq and Afghanistan where the outcome is still uncertain and where we have weighed the value of American Warriors lives against that of a people ideologically driven to hate us and have come down on the side of the latter.

In every single demonstration shouting ‘democracy’ we have sided with the protestors even though many have made it clear they have no love for the US.

So it appears our current vernacular includes a refined definition of democracy which was a refined definition of a constitutional republic and the outcome is a US government choosing sides with Shariah – regardless of the name the group we are supporting uses.

The slope steepens….

I can’t agree with all of this rant and some of the facts are skewed. In particular, just one question… remind me how we’re not getting along with Canada? The following does however provide “Food for Thought” and discussion in the public forum.

‘My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed. Since Congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete. This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.

Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list (more…)

Every once in a while, I am questioned about my stand on one element of this ongoing debate or another and the question is almost always couched in such a way as to bring discredit to this particular viewpoint. I find that interesting in general because I am not thin skinned and because this argument is not difficult to follow. Because it is not difficult to follow, it forces people to consider their true nature and their true allegiances.

I have always maintained that my sole concern is for our Warriors. This is not some misguided plea to protect Warriors from the dangers of warfare, it is in fact an attempt to protect them from the negligence and agenda of those in our own government. So when I receive the occasional hand wringing diatribe that so often allies the hand wringer with the enemies of this nation and our Warriors, I feel compelled to ‘chew butt’.

What follows is an answer I gave to one such person who is morally conflicted about the handling of prisoners at Gitmo. Of course she has no particular moral conflict (more…)

Although the 112^th Congress will be seated next month, we, as a nation, are still in peril from within. We made strides this past November to clean the “people’s house” and Senate but we still have a long way to go in our efforts to save our Constitutional Republic. There are still Socialists and Progressives within the Federal Government, all three branches and the bureaucrats who serve them, who are evil-conspiring men and women seeking to transform our Divinely inspired Constitutional Republic into a Welfare Socialist State. These same persons decry American exceptionalism and sovereignty in favor of the “one world government” philosophy of George Sorus and his ilk.

They do NOT believe in the unalienable rights of man to Life, Liberty, and Property as an endowment by our Creator. They believe that government is the grantor and controller. They believe in the redistribution of wealth and the enslavement of We the People with them as the masters. They seek to accomplish this through social-justice programs that create an entitlement mentality which as Jefferson predicted, wastes “the labors of the people under the pretense of caring for them.” These politicians, and their fellow-travelers, perpetuate rhetoric and propaganda designed to create class and ethnic warfare to divide us; rather than, civil discourse which would unite us as Americans.

We, as Americans, have always welcomed to our shores those who sought for freedom from (more…)
