Walpin was doing his job and in the course of his investigation, learned that Obama chum Kevin Johnson of NBA fame was misusing funds and having Americorp workers wash his car and run errands. The White House told him to resign or be fired and he refused, only to be fired without cause. The letter dismissing his stated that Obama had "lost faith in him." He appeared on FOX's Glenn Beck tonight as Beck, with his usual aplomb, reminded mainstream media to try something new: do their job.</span></p><p><span mce_style="color:#000080;" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); ">See you all later!</span></p><h6 style="font-size: 0.75em; "><span mce_style="color:#000080;" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); ">bwssnino&2/8;)</span></h6></div></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323108943391775470.post-7518740902862282812009-06-14T17:12:00.002-04:002009-06-14T17:25:15.397-04:00Honor Our Flag...and Fire Letterman!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5vch016wv3g-rjtBTNEL6UGjtJ3YyNAiLxRgXp7jLaq3RhM0rSK1b-b28hmtAKVjFN97MtzkkkLU6GeMvfigiKtqX_W5qIA5kVY9D0z0JcODnXIFjEeZP_ZvRZzmQrV_yPKky4GxtUWM/s1600-h/BetsyRoss.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 122px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5vch016wv3g-rjtBTNEL6UGjtJ3YyNAiLxRgXp7jLaq3RhM0rSK1b-b28hmtAKVjFN97MtzkkkLU6GeMvfigiKtqX_W5qIA5kVY9D0z0JcODnXIFjEeZP_ZvRZzmQrV_yPKky4GxtUWM/s200/BetsyRoss.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5347296943616276210" /></a><p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color:#000066;">Resolved, that the Flag of the thirteen United States shall be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white; that the Union be thirteen stars, white on a blue field, representing a new constellation.

WILL THE OLD GROUPS SOON BE RELEGATED TO HISTORY AS FAILURES IN THEIR STATED MISSION OF SUPPORTING <em>ALL</em> WOMEN?</span></strong></div> <div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></strong> </div> <div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Sean, contrary to an oft-repeated example cited in your coverage of the Letterman-Palin conflict, Hillary Clinton and others not on the Obama bandwagon <em>were and are still</em> constantly put through the ringer by the far-left. The Obama Democrats have attacked all but the most radical-leaning women and men in a manner that would never have happened within the Democrat party prior to the Obama Phenomena. The contributing factors to this include the tone of his campaign(s); the fact that he is a mixed-race black-appearing presumably naturalized Kenyan American of Arab descent and Islamic upbringing; and the makeup of his supporters consisting of a combination of socialist-leaning young thugs and low-information racists and, alternatively, "politically correct" and/or secular bigots. (You showed clips of some of these types recently, for example, when you covered Eric Holder's failure to prosecute Black Panthers with billy clubs at a voting booth in Pennsylvania who were there to intimidate John McCain's supporters.) </span></strong></div> <div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;"></span></strong> </div> <div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">We all know that Sarah Palin has been and continues to be treated badly by the far left. Yet there is evidence that moderate women and their supporters have also suffered at the hands of their former party allies. Countless YouTube videos depict the sexism, mockery, and slandering of Hillary Clinton throughout the primary. There are also numerous testimonies of the brutality inflicted upon her supporters. This includes examples of women and the elderly being shoved, mocked and bullied at the Democrat-run caucuses. One filmmaker, Gigi Gaston, has compiled interviews into an as yet-to-be rolled-out documentary entitled, <em>We Will Not be Silenced;</em> Hillary's own campaign filed a lawsuit <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">– </span>now buried <span style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Times New Roman'; FONT-SIZE: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA">– </span>against the Obama campaign alleging the mistreatment at caucuses as well as fraud. There is also evidence that moderate female supporters of both Hillary and Sarah Palin were bullied and intimidated online: the hacking of emails, the posting of private information and the sabotaging of blogs are just some examples of what women have dealt with who are not part of the far-left agenda. They, too, pleaded for support from NOW and others to no avail; today, they just applaud its imminent demise.</span></strong></div> <div> </div> <div><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">In conclusion, feminists in the traditional sense <em>are no longer</em>; the voices supporting women today are mostly conservative women seen on Fox News.

Yet another report of a crazed person opening fire in a public place, this time the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. There are no words to adequately express the depth of distress things like this bring with them...the wasted lives, the tortured past of a mind and a life gone wrong somewhere along the path, all for reasons unknown. Of course, media, as usual, was in Reporting Mode, covering it over and over nonstop to the exclusion of all other news from the time it came over the wire, and repeatedly reminding anyone who would listen that James Von Brunn, the aging shooter, was a Veteran, even referring every few minutes to DHS's odious punch list of last month warning everyone to be on the lookout for crazed Veterans. The truth is: everybody takes aspirin and everybody dies. Does this mean that aspirin will kill you? No, not unless you decide to swallow the entire bottle at once. </span>So, just why is it that this administration, DHS and media have taken up the gauntlet for open season on Vets? Is it their bravery, patriotism, commitment, or love of country? Is it their combat skill? What??<br /><br />Also today, Reverend Wright--you remember him, Obama's pastor and spiritual advisor for 17 years--stated in an interview that, "Those Jews won't let me talk to him until he's a lame duck..."<br /><br />Yes, anti semitism is on the rise throughout the world, with the help of people like Hamas, Jihadists, Black Separatists and lunatic white supremicists, which have always been around, but until recently, had no help from other sectors. It is now more important than ever that we who care about The Right Thing come together and support Israel, support our Constitution, our Country, and our Military, and, as the Danes did so long ago at the Gates of Vienna, keep the enemy at bay. And yet...these days it is a very narrow path between being humanly compassionate and empathetically foolish. As much as I can read the words of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thich_Nhat_Hanh">Thich Nhat Hanh</a> with admiration and respect, so must I draw the line at treating a murderous terrorist as an American, and according him Geneva Convention rights when he wears no uniform, fights for no flag, and observes no rules. During his raucous and giggly 60 Minutes interview some months back, Mr. SoetorObama stated, "Of COURSE I don't believe in Mirandizing the enemy" as he chortled happily away. But today that, too, was thrown under the bus and our military is now instructed to Mirandize every enemy they take into custody. Today, not just <a href="http://defendmichael.com/">Michael Behenna</a> and <a href="http://defendourtroops.org/">Evan Veles</a>, but many other brave, patriotic Americans sit in prisons for doing their job: for fighting the enemy, for doing heroic deeds which would have earned them medals and commendations in Vietnam, Korea and WW II. [Note: General Townsend received Michael's packet today and I urge all to send prayers his way in the hope that Michael will receive either a pardon or a fair trial that includes testimony from the state paid pathologist that exonerates him, and please go to<a href="http://defendmichael.com/"> http://defendmichael.com</a> to learn about the case and donate to help pay for his legal fees].<br /><br />It is all too much for the mind to manage these days, and so I remind us all of the Eastern adage that states that "<span style="font-style: italic;">there is room in the heart for all that the mind cannot handle</span>."<br /><br />I use that more and more these days. There seems to be little else that helps.<br /><span style="font-size:78%;">bwssnino&the2/8;)</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5323108943391775470.post-12455483772391358652009-06-10T16:24:00.007-04:002009-06-10T22:49:39.097-04:00For Those Who Thought They'd Seen It All...<a style="" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJvaovDUgL8pmSZDdsGWWIR9QQWbbYLQismI0kzzYNlzJuxsBTn-R1od5k8ZZ1xdkZF7N6WodHSCRe328ikdEThr7KbElzBQj33ZRnAFiDWhCpyvXgEuk5_82x2RrvBUdg-CSAAIL9Na8/s1600-h/plungerman.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 113px; height: 170px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhJvaovDUgL8pmSZDdsGWWIR9QQWbbYLQismI0kzzYNlzJuxsBTn-R1od5k8ZZ1xdkZF7N6WodHSCRe328ikdEThr7KbElzBQj33ZRnAFiDWhCpyvXgEuk5_82x2RrvBUdg-CSAAIL9Na8/s200/plungerman.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5345797921400923314" border="0" /></a>

All those "Czars" you've been hearing about: they're real. And real stupid too. This from a friend:
<br />
<br />This story is from a Ford Engineer who reports on the type people the Obama Administration is sending to the Auto Industry. I think when you read the story below you will understand that the Obama Administration is full of Uneducated people. Anyone in their right mind would understand the statements made. Yet these people probably voted and, worse yet, one can only surmise for whom they voted.
<br />
<br /><blockquote><span style="font-size:85%;">I recently attended a breakfast meeting where the speaker/guest was David E. Cole, Chairman, Center for Automotive Research (CAR). You have all likely
<br />heard Cole CAR quoted, or referred to in the auto industry news lately.
<br />
<br />Mr. Cole, who is an engineer by training, told many stories of the difficulty of working with the folks that the Obama administration has sent to save the auto industry. There have been many meetings where a 30+ year experience automotive expert has to listen to a newcomer to the industry, someone with zero manufacturing experience, zero auto industry experience, zero business experience, zero finance experience, and zero engineering experience, tell them how to run their business.
<br />
<br />His favorite story is as follows:
<br />
<br />There was a team of Obama people speaking to Mr. Cole (Engineer, automotive experience 40+ years, Chairman of CAR). They were explaining to Mr. Cole that the auto companies needed to make a car that was electric and liquid natural gas (LNG) with enough combined fuel to go 500 miles so we wouldn't "need" so many gas stations (A whole other topic). They were quoting BTU's
<br />of LNG and battery life that they had looked up on some website.
<br />
<br />Mr. Cole explained that to do this you would need a trunk FULL of batteries and a LNG tank as big as a car to make that happen and that there were problems related to the laws of physics that prevented them from...
<br />At this point, the Obama person interrupted and said (and I am quoting <span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">verbatim</span> here)
<br />
<br />"<span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">The laws of physics? Whose rules are those, we need to change that</span>."
<br />
<br />[As this government schmuck expounded on the topic, some of his cohorts frantically wrote down the “law name” so they could look it up] The Obama person continued:
<br />
<br />“We have the congress and the administration. We can repeal that law, amend it, or use an executive order to get rid of that problem. That's why we are here, to fix these sort of issues."
<br /></span></blockquote>
<br />This, folks, is NOT an exaggeration. Recently there was an article about yet another one of this administration's new "appointees", who had ZERO, repeat: ABSOLUTELY ZERO experience in the field he was being charged to oversee.
<br />
<br />And there you have it. Pure, unadulterated idiocy, straight from the Top.

Although the ranks of surviving veterans of that incredible invasion thin daily, there are still many, now octogenarians, who gather in commemoration of this day. Their memories of that day and of their comrades will never fade, even after half a century, and our observation and honoring of that day and those heroes remain as tribute to their power of example. Although the words, "Uncommon valor was a common virtue" were said by Admiral Chester Nimitz of Iwo Jima, they apply equally to D-Day, and in fact, all of those brave Americans in combat zones in service of this Republic. These soldiers, marines, sailors and airmen can never be repaid the debt we owe them for their service and for the example they have shown us. Bless them all, living and dead, and protect our troops now engaged in present day combat zones.</p><p>It is with conflict that I bring another topic to this page, as I am reluctant to allow the topic below to share space with the topic above, but I feel that it is more incumbent than ever to expose and highlight the sad contrast between those heroes of D-Day and what passes for 21st century executive power. Seized in direct violation of our Constitution's Eligibility Clause, aided and abetted by main stream media's complicity in news suppression, the individual now residing in the same White House as Franklin Delano Roosevelt as he led America through the Second World War is most probably not only an illegal alien, but now an admitted Muslim. Not that there's anything wrong with that...except his refusal to be forthcoming, transparent and abide by the laws of our land and our Constitution, his Taqiyya practice [<a>Taqiyya, or not showing their faith openly by means of pretense, dissimulation, or concealment, is a special type of </a><a href="http://thedametruth.wordpress.com/L/lying.html">LYING</a> which is taught and used by <a href="http://thedametruth.wordpress.com/S/shiite.html">Shi'a Muslims</a>, cf. <a href="http://thedametruth.wordpress.com/wp-admin/#sunni">Sunni Muslims and Taqiyya</a>. "Taqiyya" (or taqiyyah) is related to the terms "taqwa'" and "taqi'" - all have the root meaning of "guarding" something, in this case, the Islamic faith] and, of course, complete refusal to share ANY of his life's records would indicate that this is simply NOT the kind of individual who merits respect from a country that has produced a Declaration of Independence, Constitution and D-Day heroes.<img src="http://thedametruth.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/d-day-2t.jpg" mce_src="http://thedametruth.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/d-day-2t.jpg" alt="d-day-2t" title="d-day-2t" class="alignright size-full wp-image-224" height="90" width="120" /></p><p>It is disturbing indeed, and difficult if not impossible to reconcile two such greatly disparate concepts: being willing to die for one's country as opposed to lying for one's personal agenda.</p><p>It boggles the mind, and so I leave you today, D-Day's 65th Anniversary, with some salient words from our wise Logistics Monster, entitled [from the film "Full Metal Jacket"].

The postings in the "top rated" category have received the most "looks promising" votes from users. New threads on the topic of Obama's constitutional eligibility to serve as president are appearing by the minute.<br />WND observed the "Making Data More Accessible" section for several hours as more suggestions appeared and at least 60 were subsequently deleted on the first page alone – all requests for the president to submit proof of citizenship.<br />One deleted post echoed many others in asking President Obama to "Prove that you are a U.S. citizen and valid president."<br />The post asks why Obama doesn't simply release his "real birth certificate and end all of this controversy."<br />"Are you a fraud?" it asks. "Is your election to the highest office in the land the largest scam ever pulled on the American people? Are you really not eligible for office? End the speculation and prove who you are."<br />Let Obama and everyone else know you care about the Constitution. Take part in the WND's "Where's the Birth Certificate?" billboard campaign!<br />Another removed thread titled, "Where is the Obama legal documentation to prove who he actually is?" asked the president to provide the following documents: original, vault copy birth certificate, records of attorney fees, marriage and divorce records for Obama's parents, passport, adoption records, school records and various other documents.<br />One displeased user who had his post deleted wrote, "I posted a comment about the lack of transparency in President Obama's administration and history, and down it came in minutes. So much for a open dialogue or, for that matter, freedom of speech."<br />Another man suggested U.S. citizens consider a class-action lawsuit against President Obama until he surrenders his documents. His post stated, in part:<br /><br />Dear President, If only you would show us your long form birth certificate that shows location (hospital) of birth as well as attending physician info. Be it duly noted that We the People of this constitutional republic do hereby note many of the abuses of power that you and your administration's representatives are currently engaged in. We the People do hereby<br />certify that we are considering all legal options available to restrict your audacity to run roughshod over the Constitution, abuse of power and office, as well as spending too much friggin' money when we are, as a nation, broke..."<br />His post was subsequently deleted. "Who would have thought that even contemplating such action would be required against a sitting president and administration? A class-action approach may be the only viable way to force reporting in the mainstream press," he told WND.<br />Meanwhile, a thread titled "Contact the media to get it out in the open that the 'birthers' are a racist terrorist organization practicing electronic espionage" remained in place for much of the day while messages from the so-called "birthers" were removed. It has now been flagged. A link for providing news tips to CNN accompanied the message.</span><br /></span></div><span style="font-size:85%;"><br />4. A California pastor and his wife were required by San Diego County officials to obtain a permit to hold a Bible study in their home.<br />"What?! Is this a joke?" I wondered as I heard the news for the first time. It was no joke. Rather, it's a First Amendment nightmare and possibly a foreshadowing of what's to come.<br />Are you prepared for a future in which you hear, "Got your permit to study the Bible?"<br />On April 10 (Good Friday), a county code enforcement officer visited the home of David and Mary Jones after receiving a complaint about their Christian gatherings. The Jones' attorney, Dean Broyles, president of The Western Center for Law & Policy, conveyed in disbelief, "The county asked (Mrs. Jones), 'Do you have a regular meeting in your home?' She said, 'Yes.' 'Do you say "amen"?' 'Yes.' 'Do you pray?' 'Yes.' 'Do you say "praise the Lord"?' 'Yes.'"<br />The officer then warned the family to "cease and desist" the "religious gathering" or they would face weekly fines. A few days later, the county delivered a citation claiming that the Joneses were guilty of "unlawful use of land" and mandating them to "stop religious assembly or apply for a major use permit."<br />At first, I thought, "They must have a large congregation meeting in their home to warrant this type of citation and prompt this type of commotion, right?" Actually, according to their lawyer, the Joneses have been hosting weekly Bible studies in their home for about five years, with an average attendance of only about 15 people.<br />Broyles appropriately responded, "If the county thinks they can shut down groups of 10 or 15 Christians meeting in a home, what about people who meet regularly at home for poker night? What about people who meet for Tupperware parties? What about people who are meeting to watch baseball games on a regular basis and support the Chargers?"<br /><br />Well, this past weekend, barraged by hundreds of complaints after WorldNetDaily broke the news to the international community, San Diego County officials informed the world that they'd backed down from requiring the Joneses to obtain a permit. Despite their retraction (based solely upon public pressure, I might add), however, I am appalled at how far the county's enforcement and encroachment crossed the constitutional line and became a flagrant disregard for Americans' right to exercise their religious faiths. And I'm concerned that we will see far more of these overreaching governmental actions in years to come.<br />As Mary Jones shared with Fox News: "The implications are great because it's not only us that's involved. There are thousands and thousands of Bible studies that are held all across the country. What we're interested in is setting a precedent here -- before it goes any further -- and that we have it settled for the future." <a href="http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=32098">http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=32098<br /></a><br />5. '<a href="http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1090403.html">Obama met Muslim Brotherhood members in U.S.'</a><br /><br />U.S. President Barack Obama met with members of Egypt's Islamist opposition movement, the Muslim Brotherhood, earlier this year, according to a report in Thursday editions of the Egyptian daily newspaper Almasry Alyoum. The newspaper reported that Obama met the group's members, who reside in the U.S. and Europe, in Washington two months ago.<br />According to the report, the members requested that news of the meeting not be publicized. They expressed to Obama their support for democracy and the war on terror.<br />The newspaper also reported that the members communicated to Obama their position that the Muslim Brotherhood would abide by all agreements Egypt has signed with foreign countries.<br />Obama landed in Cairo on Thursday to deliver a conciliatory speech as part of his outreach to the Arab and Muslim world. The Muslim Brotherhood is considered a Sunni-dominated fundamentalist Islamic organization that has spawned numerous factions across the Arab world that have engaged in terrorist activity, including the Palestinian rejectionist group Hamas.<br />It is also the main opposition bloc to Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, whose regime is viewed favorably in the West due to its adherence to the thirty-year-old peace treaty between Israel and Egypt.<br /><br />6.

The woman, Amal, is the wife of Abdel Nasser al-Basha, the owner of the house where the two Hamas men, Muhammad Samman and Muhammad Yassin, had been hiding.<br /></span> </blockquote>OKAY.

Keep the faith all...keep learning and spreading the Truth...laugh when you can, love all you can and stand up for our Republic by attending Tea Parties and marches!<br /><p done0="154" done1="154">The march on Washington DC is on 9/12/09. <a title="912 Project" href="http://theglennbeck912project.com/" target="_blank" modo="false">Glenn Beck’s 912 Project</a>; the <a title="9-12-09 National Taxpayer Protest" href="http://912dc.org/" target="_blank" modo="false">09.12.09 National Taxpayer Protest</a>, sponsored by <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.freedomworks.org">Freedom Works Foundation</a>, <a title="Campaign For Liberty" href="http://www.campaignforliberty.com/" target="_blank" modo="false">Campaign For Liberty</a>. This is a crucial crossroads for our Republic. As Logistics Monster says, "Our non-representative representatives will either be listening or they won’t, and we will finally have our answer. Do we get our Republic back or are we on our way to anarchy?" Remember the difference between a March and a Revolution: a March assumes that someone in leadership cares about the message; a Revolution has realized that they don't.</p><p done0="154" done1="154">Oh, and see "The Pink Panther"--the Peter Sellers version!

One has to ask oneself: 1) WHY? and<br />2) Why am I NOT surprised? At first I was reluctant to open this old wound but then I realized that it has never closed and never will, and that is probably a good thing. Like Eisenhower's directive to take pictures of Germany's death camps upon their liberation lest the world disbelieve or forget what happened there [Ahmedinejad excepted], so must we see pictures and follow all news pertaining to 911, lest we become complacent or minimize its enormity.<br /><br />As deep concerns about the individual in the White House continues to spread, it is things like this that add fuel to the fire and wind to fan it. Among other things, a letter to the White House resident from Lou Pritchett, speaker and corporate consultant, formerly with Proctor & Gamble gives credence to the fact that the concerns are myriad, serious, and shared by many.<br /><blockquote style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;">AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA<br />Dear President Obama:<br />You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.<br />You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you..<br />You scare me because I do not know <u>how you paid</u> for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.<br />You scare me because you did not spend <u>the formative years</u> of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.<br />You scare me because you have <u>never </u>run a company or met a payroll.<br />You scare me because you have <u>never had military experience</u>, thus don't understand it at its core.<br />You scare me because you<u> lack</u> humility and 'class,'<u> always blaming</u> others.<br />You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.<br />You scare me because you are a <u>cheerleader for the 'blame America'</u> crowd and deliver this message abroad.<br />You scare me because you want to<u> change America to a European style</u> country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.<br />You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a<u> government</u><u>controlled</u> one.<br />You scare me because you <u>prefer 'wind mills'</u> to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.<br />You scare me because you want to <u>kill the American capitalist</u> goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.<br />You scare me because you have begun to<u> use 'extortion' tact</u>ics against certain banks and corporations.<br />You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your<u> wild</u> and irresponsible <u>spending </u>proposals.<br />You scare me because you <u>will not openly listen</u> to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.<br />You scare me because you <u>falsely believe</u> that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.<br />You scare me because<u> the media gives</u> you a free pass on everything you do.<br />You scare me because you demonize and<u> want to sile</u>nce the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Relllys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view..<br />You scare me because you prefer <u>controlling over</u> governing.<br /><u>Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.</u></span> </blockquote>Add to this a cooling attitude toward long time ally Israel and his plan for a speech to the Muslim world on Israeli Independence Day and it simply does not look good. Not for America, not for the World, not for anyone. Except, perhaps, Himself. First, Last and Always. It would not surprise me if the Handlers that installed him were having second, third and even fourth thoughts right about now, as Americans are being poured into some of Afghanistan's cruelest and most inhospitable terrain [both Nature and the Taliban seem to have teamed up here], and Camp Leatherneck, with the largest combat zone parking lot for air vehicles in the world is being built in Helmand Province. Even Tom Rall, Miami's loyal Liberal, has called for the resignation of this guy...it's got to give one pause for thought...doesn't it?<br /><br />Thanks to TIME and James Nachtwey for heartrending pictures of Ground Zero, and to Joseph Farah and <a href="http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=99832">World Net Daily</a> for reporting on the Obama administration's petition filed in U.S. Supreme Court to protect Saudi Arabia and four of its princes from being held accountable for their alleged role in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attack on the United States that killed almost 3,000 Americans.

Either that, or that 3 hours of gardening today pumped out so much serotonin that I cannot be held responsible for what The Mind On Serotonin does.<br /><br />In New York it's 4:37 PM, a soft and sunny 75; it's 1:57 AM in Kandahar, Afghanistan, 70 F, and I just finished reading the newswire about Marjah, where American forces have seized 16 tons of opiates, 45 tons of explosive making material and a large supply of heroin refining product. Not far from there, in the Desert of Death, so named by locals for its less than hospitable conditions, the USMC is building a 443 acre Camp Leatherneck, started in January, which will house the largest combat zone parking field [that's for air craft, not cars] in the world, so it looks like we're there to stay awhile. <br /><br />Sadly, John Brown, Jr., one of the original 29 Navajo Code Talkers who developed a communication code the Japanese were unable to break passed from this world yesterday at the age of 88. Their contribution to our success in WWII was monumental and was not declassified until 1968. The 29 received the Congressional Gold Medal in 2001. As we near Memorial Day, it is ever more important to remember that although the "official" day of remembrance was changed so that it could always be on a Monday, thereby affording Americans another annual three day weekend, the <a href="http://www.usmemorialday.org/backgrnd.html"><span style="font-style: italic;">actual</span></a> Memorial Day falls on May 30.<br /><br />On other fronts, California is still broke, Nancy Pelosi is still a liar, and Joe Biden is still as senseless as a goat. In New York four people were arrested today on charges of plotting to shoot military aircraft at Stewart Airfield with Stingers, blow up two Synagoges in the Bronx, and generally create havoc and terrorism wherever they could find it. It is said that three of them converted to Islam while serving time in American jails...and the BOzo in the White House wants to bring Gitmo guys here??<br /><br />A friend who spent time in a locked mental ward recently told me he had been watching a Lakers game on the TV there when the cameras showed some footage of Jack Nicholson, an avid fan, in the stands. He couldn't help being reminded of watching Nicholson years ago in a theater in "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" wherein Jack unwittingly becomes trapped in a locked mental ward.

For this to occur in our country is a dishonor to everyone who has sacrificed their time, their health or their lives to protect our Constitution and its Bill of Rights.

Our sponsors pulled out a couple weeks ago and though we<br />tried mightily to get others we have come up dry. It appears that the<br />money guys on our side of the argument are running scared from the<br />current political climate. The Park Service is going to pull our<br />permits for lack of resources; simply put, no portalets or EMT services means no rally. I apologize for any inconvenience this causes, but there's is simply nothing we can do.<br /><br />We had commitments from Capt. Phillips of the Somali pirates event,<br />Marcus Luttrell USN SEAL (Lone Survivor), former Congressman Duncan<br />Hunter, Pat Dollard, various Blue and Gold Star family members, three<br />separate musical acts, a potential video up link to Iraq, the 9/11<br />chopper, dragsters painted to represent the different services and an<br />after party at the Hard Rock Cafe. Unfortunately, the hard work<br />expended to put this together, by a number of people will now be for<br />naught. Please don't let this discourage your efforts. It is all the<br />more important that we redouble our efforts concerning our heroes in<br />the desert. I hope you all understand how difficult it is for me to<br />send this message.
