I would just like to take a moment and pay my respects to those who have served our great nation past and present. Your service and sacrafice was not in vain and will never be forgotten.
Thank You.

Guns and Church
Since I identify with the people who fall into Barrack Obama’s elitist description about of people of faith who keep firearms I’m not very happy with Barrack Obama’s recent remarks.
He said something to the effect that us rednecks cling to our guns and our religion when we get frustrated and I would like to take umbrage to these remarks. My faith goes much deeper than his superficial explanation and I love my guns even when I’m not frustrated.
And I am not by myself. I was going to church and shooting guns before Mr. Obama was even born and come from a long line of good people who have been doing it for generations.
To me this latest Obama blunder only helps reveal the depth of condescension the far left wing of the Democrat party has for the folks out here in flyover country.
Mr. Obama’s remarks are insulting to a lot of folks. It’s kind of like Abraham Lincoln said, “God must love the common people because he made so many of them”.
His remarks make me think that Obama doesn’t know the people of this country very well. I’m sure he knows the jet set and the Hollywood bunch, the limousine liberals and the save the whales, kill the babies crowd, but does he think that the ordinary people don’t count? Does he think that they’re so stupid that they don’t know who he’s talking about when he says these things? Does he think their opinions aren’t important? Apparently.

The McCain Family
Here are some things you may not know about Cindy McCain. She graduated from Southern Cal and was a special-needs teacher.
After her Dad died she became involved with his beer distributing firm and is now the chairwoman. Sales have doubled since she has taken over from her father.
They have a marriage prenuptial agreement, her assets remain separate.
She is involved around the world clearing land mines – travels to these
countries on a detonation team and service on their board.
They have a 19 year old serving in Iraq , another son in the Naval Academy ,
a daughter recently graduated from Columbia Univ. , an adopted daughter in
high school, and a son who is the finance guy at the beer firm.
She raised kids in Phoenix , AZ rather than Washington DC(Better atmosphere) while her husband commuted. In 1991, Mrs. McCain came across a girl in an orphanage in Bangladesh . Mother Teresa implored Mrs. McCain to take the baby with severe cleft palate. She did so without first telling her husband. The couple adopted the girl who has had a dozen operations to repair her cleft palate and other medical problems.
The Away Game

Remember me?
Thanks for sending this to me Ms Carrie.
THE AWAY GAME:
First year cadets at the Air Force Academy are allowed to leave the Academy without penalty up through the end of first-year Christmas break. Those who came back were assigned to write a paper on why they chose to return. Here is one young cadet’s masterpiece, which has begun to be widely publicized.
Why return to the Air Force Academy after Winter Break?
So after our sunburns have faded and the memories of our winter break have been reduced to pictures we’ve pinned on our desk boards, and once again we’ve exchanged T-shirts and swim suits for flight suits and camouflage, there still remains the question that every cadet at U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs has asked themselves at some point: Why did we come back? Why, after spending two weeks with our family would we return to one of the most demanding lifestyles in the country? After listening to our ‘friends’ who are home from State or Ivy League schools chock full of wisdom about how our war in Iraq is unjust and unworldly, why would we return?
Patriots Ignore Veterans
Dec 12
The Boston Herald reported on Nov 12, 2007 the New England (Cheaters) Patriots left many soldiers and their families very unhappy. It seems the New England Cheaters did not show up like they promised and meet with Military Veterans and their families. The Soldiers had received invitations to come have lunch with The New England Patriots…”food will be provided and the opportunity to meet and take pictures with some of the New England Patriots Players will also be available.”
Not one single (Un)Patriot showed up, and left many soldiers and their families very disappointed. It is not enough that the Patriots are known world wide for being the biggest bunch of cheaters on the planet…but they have shown they are very selfish and do not support Our Soldiers.
Why am I writing this? Because this kind of information is hushed up often, and does not make the National News. If I hadn’t been in land of Adam & Steve and picked up a newspaper that day, I’d have never heard about it.
Why did I use Ron “The Texas Troll” Pauls picture. Maybe because the man claims to be a Patriot and defend the constitution…yet he admits he wants to change just about everything in it.
Ron Paul and The New England Patriots…just a bunch of cheaters who intend to do anything they must, to win… Myself…I think they are all loser scumbags. The Patriots should not be allowed to use the name…since they are not patriotic at all.

Abraham Lincoln’s
Thanksgiving Proclamation of 1863
It is the duty of nations as well as of men to own their dependence upon the
overruling power of God; to confess their sins and transgressions in humble
sorrow, yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and
pardon; and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and
proven by all history, that those nations are blessed whose God is the Lord.
We know that by His divine law, nations, like individuals, are subjected to
punishments and chastisements in this world. May we not justly fear that the
awful calamity of civil war which now desolates the land may be a punishment
inflicted upon us for our presumptuous sins, to the needful end of our national
reformation as a whole people?
We have been the recipients of the choisest bounties of heaven; we have been
preserved these many years in peace and prosperity; we have grown in
numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown.
But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which
preserved us in peace and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us, and we
have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings
were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. Intoxicated with
unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of
redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us.
It has seemed to me fit and proper that God should be solemnly, reverently and
gratefully acknowledged, as with one heart and one voice, by the whole
American people. I do therefore invite my fellow citizens in every part of the
United States, and also those who are at sea and those who are sojourning in
foreign lands, to set apart and observe the last Thursday of November as a day
of Thanksgiving and praise to our beneficent Father Who dwelleth in the
heavens.
A. Lincoln, October 3, 1863.
