  • You want the truth? NO.

    If you want to see something very interesting, look up the “Cult of Marduk.” That’s the group that took over Sumer and turned it into Babylon. Look up the similarities between the Cult of Marduk and Islam. You might be surprised.

  • Wow, this reminds me of the movie The Dictator. Except, it is our President. I wonder if there is some kind of award he will not be given. Then again, I am surprised he wasn’t handed an Oscar for his air-time in o-dark-thirty.

  • 1) His shirt is too properly tucked in. When shooting skeet, you keep your rifle targeted on them. Look at the bottom of his shirt. He hasn’t lifted the rifle above that height. If he had, it would be loose.

    2) His finger is wrapped around the trigger. When you shoot, you stroke the trigger. Only people who know nothing about properly targeting and shooting wrap their finger fully around the trigger.

    3) The rifle is not elevated enough. Skeet shooting involves shooting the skeet in the air. The way he is holding the rifle and has it elevated, he is shooting a static target, not a flying disk.

    4) Wrong grip style for non-static shooting. When you shoot a static target, you grip in the rear and balance on the front. When you are shooting a moving target with a rifle, you keep a firm grip on the front and hold the rifle tight against your shoulder.

    5) No recoil stress. If he were firing an actual round out of the rifle, he would be showing the stresses of recoil in his arms and against his shoulder. Also, his cheek would be pulled back slightly as the rifle moved backwards with the shot.

    6) Too much smoke. Modern firearms rounds use a smokeless powder. Especially when shooting skeet, you don’t want a great deal of smoke to obscure your view of your next shot.

  • When an IED went off under my HMMWV, I was thrown clear of the blast. I remember laying on the ground, looking up at the sky, when a medic walked up to me. He knelt down, gave me a once over, and told me that I knew what had to be done. Then, he stood up and kept walking.

    I rolled over and crawled back to the HMMWV and pulled the driver to safety in the same ditch I was laying in beside the road. I put an IV in his arm and put a tourniquet on his leg (severed below the knee). I did all this with severe damage to my knee and took a couple of rounds in my thigh and ****.

    Mind you, once the IED went off, we were engaged by insurgent forces in a small arms battle. The nearest medic was three vehicles back. Not to mention, medics don’t walk during combat, let along stand up in full view of the enemy. Afterwards, I was told that no medic saw me until after I had pulled the driver free.

    I fully believe that I saw an angel who had me pull a man to safety so he could go back to his wife and kids.

  • This is asinine. I am a veteran and receive a discount at several restaurants around my home town. If the court ruled that it is discrimination to offer discounts to a select group, then what is stopping them from offering the same discounts I enjoy to people who are not combat vets?

    Remember, if everyone is special, then nobody is.

  • Here I was thinking that the greatest threat to national security was the extremist Islamist jihadis or perhaps the open border that they are crossing… or both. Actually, the greatest threat to national security is the person who is doing nothing to protect our country… the President.

  • The only reason Obama “successfully” became president is because every body and their dog voted for him. Literally. There were registered voters sharing the same address, a cemetery, who were present at that address when their ballots were mailed out (they found that the names corresponded with the bodies buried there). Also, the number of pets that were registered to vote.

    Yeah, no voter fraud there. Only ACORN that was disbanded after how many people admited to voter fraud?

    Please, go find a couple of cans on the side of the road and recycle them for a dime so you can buy a clue.

  • Because he didn’t remember a letter or two that he wrote he lied? How many letters for that sort of thing do you think he writes every month? He actually checked up on it and admitted that he was wrong. What about the President? When has he ever admitted he was wrong about something? What about any of the letters the President wrote while he was a Senator or before that? Right… they are all locked under Executive Privilege. Sounds transparent to me…

  • How about this. Make a compromise. For every year of official college transcripts Obama releases, Romney will release a year of tax returns. Since the President has nothing to hide and is completely transparent, I’m sure he would got for this in a heartbeat!

    Unless, of course, he attended college as a foreign student for lower tuition rates, that is.

  • I wonder if this will be one of the first Stations of Obama’s Cross when he overturns the Christian religion and imposes his worship?
