Border fence is a dividing line in immigration debate

SAN LUIS, Arizona (CNN) -- The Yuma desert is below: San Luis, Arizona, to one side and San Luis, Mexico, to the other. On this clear day, the Colorado River is glistening, birds playfully circling over what any map defines as the U.S.-Mexico border in this area. But from a helicopter above, the border...

Flag-Draped Coffins -- Truth or Politics?

President Barack Obama's administration is reviewing a Pentagon policy banning media from taking pictures of flag-draped coffins returning fallen U.S. servicemen. "If the needs of the families can be met, and the privacy concerns can be addressed, the more honor we can accord these fallen heroes...

One Iraq War Vet Declares War On Hollywood

Read this fellow’s blog post, look at the videos most especially the one at the bottom, do you realize that these men and women volunteer to serve, that they are gone 6 –12 months in a row and get paid pretty much diddly for the privilege of getting shot at, having to drive around bombs and like? Big...

Gitmo – Obama’s first step in foreign policy

Step, stumble, bumble, set up, scam.  I can’t quite come up with the right word. This guy is quite smart, I’ll give him that.  So if he’s doing this there is a further reason, and I don’t believe it is for the reason he says, because the other thing I think of our former community organizer...

Obama snubs vets, skips Heroes ball

From WorldNetDaily On the evening after the inauguration, the President and First Lady made the rounds to some of the balls given in their honor.  One thing of interest to me is they chose to hang with the stars, rather than visiting the ball hosted by by the American Legion and co-sponsored by...

Wake-Up Call

I received an email from a friend, sharing in part the story below, what he sent me was moving enough, but finding the rest of the story is even more so. On 8 June 2005 the following item appeared in the Albuquerque Tribune: Air Force Capt. Jeremy Fresques, a Farmington native and Farmington High School...

Troop Abuse?

There is Gitmo, there is Abu Grab, the Secret (if we know about them then I guess they are not secret) CIA Prisons The media and anti-war crowd (really now how many people are really pro-war?) are always bringing up evil examples of the military, the question is can they (the media et al) take a joke...

Army/Navy Game 12-6-08 Philadelphia, PA

Anyone who knows me well, knows I have a philosophy that most things happen for a reason, most of the time the reason remains "behind the curtain" but for a reason none the less. This past week we had to take our second oldest child (if you can call a 17 year old a child) to the hospital to...

Search for the USS Grunion - Lost WWII Submarine near Kiska Alaska

This week the wreckage of Steve Faucet's plane was found, over a year after he flew off and was not heard from again. The anguish of the loss, the "not knowing" must be a very heavy burden, but now his family has a better idea of what may have happened and hopefully that helps. Now imagine...

CNN Iraq Surge Poll

So, almost 60% of the people answering the poll think that the surge has done nothing in Iraq? Well first off, Iraq is better than when Saddam and his sons ran the joint. Second off even Harry (ain't done squat for two years) Reid has confessed that the surge has worked. So what do we have here? A bunch...

Psychos, and the Berkeley Bates Hotel

From the ContraCostaTimes.com Before we hit the Bates Psycho ward, let's take a look at the name of the "paper" that this story comes from. Contra Costa Times. If you look up Contra on Wikipedia one of the definitions involves Nicaragua, and the rebel group there that was fighting against the...

Sand Traps, Golf and Playing Through

From Golf.com I very much enjoy playing golf, and as a follower of the game I also enjoy watching golf. The thing that makes or breaks a broadcast (you listening NFL Network) is the commentary provided by the sportscasters. If you have good people they can take a weak tournament and make it like The...

Strength and Resolve Coupled with Technology

From CNN I have a very soft spot for the men and women in our military. It comes from knowing the kind of work and the amount of hours they do work. Add to that the pay and benefits that most receive, and how long many of these fine people spend away from home, family and friends. On top of all of that...

The Meeting of the Minds

From AccessNorthGA.com and the Associated Press At first I thought this was another Carrey/Daniels sequel. But no, it is just another roll out of the predictible left Glockenspiel Road Show . This particular installment was brought to us by Jimmy "See my staff run when my book comes out" Carter...

Since when is calling someone an idiot unpatriotic?

From Fox News The Whiner of the House, Nancy Pelosi, (D-Leftest Coast), is very mad. So mad in fact that if she had a ball, she might be on the verge of taking it and going home. It seems that when the President said he welcomes disagreement in a time of war, she took that as, she can say anything in...

Brave Military, Cowardly Congress. Or.....re-deployment, the neo-social lingo for SURRENDER

From CNN Harry Reid, (D-Nevada), has some profoundly incorrect thoughts on Iraq. "This war is a serious situation. It involves the worst foreign policy mistake in the history of this country," Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nevada, told CNN's "Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer." The article...

I'd love to thank you for saving my life, but I don't believe in what you do.

Hooray! With absolute sincerity, although as you read on you might think I'm not being sincere. Today the Brit's rescued three Christian peace activists in Iraq. I'm happy for the three men and their families. Another man from this group was not as lucky, Tom Fox was found murdered two weeks...
