• MSNBC Host Blames NRA for ‘Slow’ Boston Investigation: ‘In the Business of Helping Bombers Get Away With Their Crimes’

  April 18, 2013 at 3:29pm

  @Shellback

  Hey shipmate, time to learn to spell pollywog. (smile) http://www.e-yearbook.com/sp/eybb

  See page 34-35, we were the first female crew members to cross into Davy Jone’s domain on a Navy USS-designated ship. Decks were wood forward and non-skid aft, with lots of grease, garbage and warm seawater from fire hoses to help us crawl the entire way. We blistered and bled. And yes, they used shillelaghs back then. So we were bruised and a little bloodied on top too. Nobody whined and every single one of us made it through Neptune’s Court (although a few did end up in sick bay afterwards). And on the return trip you better believe I was swinging my own hunk of wet hose, (I still have it somewhere) although the wog-to-back ratio was reversed.

  Good Times. Fair Winds to You.

• With Absolutely No Evidence, Alex Jones Calls Boston Marathon Explosions a ‘False Flag’ Operation Conducted by the Gov’t

  April 15, 2013 at 6:00pm

  He should wait until more facts are known.

  Think about what life must be like to come home as a physically or mentally wounded combat veteran, say a prayer, and then say another prayer for the 4/13 Boston Marathon victims and witnesses.

• Gold Tanks to Lowest Point in Two Years: Here’s What You Need to Know

  April 15, 2013 at 2:38pm

  In reply to willingtoupe.

  There are some great posts here! Instead of saving for 2014 and 2015 at the beach, I have decided to put all my discipline and patience into amassing cheap Gold by getting some simple loans. You gotta scrimp and sacrifice to enjoy life twenty years from now in style. I applied for another credit card, and will use those approved checks they send, and I can usually hit some relatives up for ten percent loans to get cheap gold fast, as long as its like a grand each or less.

• Gold Tanks to Lowest Point in Two Years: Here’s What You Need to Know

  Well, if the word gets out to too many media outlets, there will be the risk of a bubble. But now, with prices lower and continuing to fall, it’s time to load up! I already used a NFCU signature loan to begin buying, and hopefully we can get a second mortgage before prices begin to recover.

  Our household is cutting down on some non-essential purchases like 2014 vacation to offset the temporary effect of loan service, but it’s better to really enjoy life five to ten years from now.

• ‘Peace With Honor’: 25 Stunning Photos to Mark the 40th Anniversary of the U.S. Withdrawal From Vietnam

  April 5, 2013 at 1:56pm

  Of course E, these photos took me back, took my breath away, just as you mentioned on the drop site. These were the times that defined what exactly a patriot was, is, and would be. Once you realize and believe that 19, 17, 15, 8 and 1 are all brutally honest depictions of loyal Americans, all affected differently, and all part of the greatness of our unique country; from the coal mines, to the surfers tents, from Times Square to Big Sur; from the reflecting pool to ComicCon to Willie’s Austin concerts.

  We are one big ass happy family, sitting under our big ass family tree. So to speak.

• White House Official: Obama Will Propose Cuts to Social Security

  In reply to Seagal45.

  It is a quantifiable move, so now there is an opportunity presented for skillful tacticians following a win/win strategy. But when negotiations commence, we must keep our factions close and our worthy opponents even closer. For, to prevail in focal ground we must build our alliances.

  Please call you representative to tell them what YOU think about the US Army’s recommendation to deny Purple Hearts to the United States warfighters Killed and Wounded by the modern day Benedict Arnold; Major Hassan three years ago in the Fort Benning Massacre.

• Video of 15-Year-Old Girl Lecturing Maryland Lawmakers on Gun Control Goes Viral

  April 5, 2013 at 8:56am

  In reply to Daddy Hawg.

  The young lady is 110% correct, and to prove her point, the Human Resources compound on FT Hood was a Gun Free Zone three years ago when commissioned coward Nidal Hassan mowed down some of our finest patriots in cold blood. Luckily there were armed trained uniformed security nearby, just as the NRA recommends for every one of our 98,980 public schools in the United States.

  Please contact your Representative today, to say what you think. Should the Army award Purple Hearts to war fighters left dead or Wounded at FT Hood? (Civilians do not get the medal.)

• U.S. Army General Fired Over Alcohol and Sexual Misconduct Charges

  There are too many Flag Officers anyway. They need to stay sharp. This one has miles to go.

  Behind the scenes, the real scandal: US Army panel recommends NO Purple Hearts be awarded to the war fighters KILLED and WOUNDED in FT Hood three years ago by mole Major Hasan. Tell the Administration and Chuck Hagel how YOU feel!

• Tampa Bay Rays Apologize After Team Mascot Holds Up This Insensitive Sign During Game

  In reply to PlanetReality.

  It’s doubly troubling because Mr. Irwin was the epitome of our strongest Ally in the World, the “Wonder Down Under,” the one and only Australia.

  It’s a place any military veteran and any Texan can relate to.

  They keep their politics local and handle things without needing millions and millions of United States financial assistance dollars like some Muslim country.

  So leave it to Tampa to recreate their usual faux pas, this time going viral internationally.

  Email your Representative to tell the Pentagon how you feel. The US Army panel now recommends NO Purple Hearts for the FT Hood shootings.

  Well, I will post this for the third time as there were glitches overnight.

  This polite and well spoken young woman is a diamond in the rough with a bright future. She reflects great credit on those who raise her, those who train her, and those who influence and guide her.

  Please call or email your Representative today, Secretary of Defense Hagel is considering whether or not to award Purple Hearts to those war fighters KILLED and Wounded by turncoat Major Nidal Hassan.
