• Navy Commander Under Fire for Raunchy Videos Shown to Crew

  January 3, 2011 at 4:41pm

  YOu gotta be kidding me that anyone is upset with this fil/s and this O6′s actions. Having been a Army SOF guy stuck on both the Kitty Hawk and the Enterprise for extended stints for combat ops, this is too funny compared to the climate I witnessed. In the 90′s the Enterprise was called “Cellblock 65”!! by its crew-they hated the stale usual enviroment they were in. And oh by the way, if this make s you go PC crazy, god forbib you see what the Rangers and Ateams in Africa do for morale boosting stunts! If you are in the bussiness of seeing your buddies killed maimed and having to kill or be killed , this is harmless good fun. Heres my adivce, if you want to tell thee folks what to do, join, earn their respect and then give the orders. Till then, go about your own lives and be happy less than 1% of this nation even chose to serve a community that when I joined refused us entry into establishments, called us baby killers and facists.

• ‘Furious’ TSA Screeners Complain About Smelly Passengers

  November 23, 2010 at 6:16pm

  In reply to cotuit.

  I belive all of this may not have been a secert plan…but will make folks in ther TSA that never would have considered being in a union, (e.g AFL-CIO) more apt to join because of this “us vs. them” result of this stupid old Counter Terroist on the Objective technique that every American is being forced to endure if they opt out of the scanner. This technique was discarded by the CT units in the military as “ too time consuming for the net result”. It is much easier to profile and ask specific questions of suspected terorists or thei teammates and then give them a detailed search. This policy will have unintended consequences and a fully unionized “federal police force” is one of them

• Podesta: Obama Can Use ‘Armed Forces’ to Push Progressive Agenda

  November 18, 2010 at 8:40pm

  In reply to SaintMichael.

  It is wrong to see the military thru the “Socialist lens”. Woodrow WIlson segragated the Military, Because segragation in the Military was a stupid racist Progressive idea and proved to be unsucessful in WW2, Truman and Congress de segregated it. Congress funds the medical care for readiness, not social welfare, huge difference. WRT ABC comment that the USMIL has never said no, that is also false-there are hundreds of times the Leadership said no due to the Consttution or Executive orders that restrict the Military from action, mostly from requests to do operations within the U.S. Congress approved combat in Iraq (w/o their Constitutional requirment for declaring war, but still their power) with a larger approval margin the GHB had for Operation Desert Storm. The Military is not a test ;ab for social reform-it is a battlefield labrotory for war, if it makes sense for readiness, they do it. Don’t see that as a “Socialist Enviroment

  The military also has “checks and balances” against coruption -they are only required to obey “legal and constitutionally lawful orders” from their officers, including the POTUS. That prevents any ideological maniac from using the USMIL to be a tool against the people. Trust me, there is no way to push any agenda that isnt for the nations good thru the military, if it is right, the Congress will support it, if not, well that is why you won’t see your unemployment going away by getting a job with the CCC anytime soon.

• George W. Bush to Matt Lauer: ‘I Really Don’t Care About Perceptions’

  November 3, 2010 at 3:11pm

  I had the pleasure of meeting President Bush two times and he is a real good example of what this country needs as a President. However, he was not without fault for the conduct of the Iraq war, (being led down the path that it was a quick victory, we could do it with 3 Div, and no need to purchase updated or top of the line equipment for all forces), alowing GEN Shinseki to be fired for telling the truth, etc. At least he had the courage to admit that and surge the min required forces to IZ and squeeze out a political settlement more to the USA position. However, no Americans should die to just squeeze out our positions, we get inot a future fight, we should declare war, and be declared the outright victors and dictate our terms.

• Professor Exposes Federally Funded ‘Revisionist’ History Conference

  November 1, 2010 at 8:39pm

  It is a terrible state of aafiars when our teachers, almost to a man/woman are communists, or communist sympathisers. Strong action must be taken soonest to defund, fire, retire all of these terrible blights on our nation before they speard this B.S. to anymore of our children. Combine this with the media that is presented to our youth today, and Nikta Kruschev’s words can be heard echoing across history…..If we do not stop this insanity now-what will be the catalyst??? How much more can we take as a people?? End the funding of any/all organizations that are of this mindset!!

• AP: ‘Sparse’ Crowd of ‘Thousands’ Gathers in DC to Push Dem Agenda

  October 2, 2010 at 1:53pm

  Not quite the same emotional turnout….However – Why is FOX news scared to say that the CPUSA is one of the big supporteers of this rally?? Just saying, AFL-CIO, Progressives and leaving it at that, gives a huge pass to those in America that could care less about the unions, or have no idea what a Progressive is , but f you tie the truth to this rally and tie Progressives to Communist and National Socialists, then you send the accurate picture for voters to choose from this Nov. We are at a turning point in this nation, and don’t take a low turn out today as a possible low turn out of voters or even vote tampering this Nov. We need to make the Progressive idea/ideals a thing of the past , never to return-like feudalism is today.

• Photos Show U.S. Soldiers Posing With Afghan Corpses

  October 2, 2010 at 12:36pm

  In reply to grnhrn.

  Having been forced to kill a half dozen enemies personally (and who know how many thru indirect fire, airstrikes) I have no sympathy for them (the enemy)-I also do not have any tolerence for those that gloat over, use trophies or do anything other than dealing with the bodies as required (for identification or disposal/turn over to locals for burial).This is immature behavior by those that are not capable of understanding what life and war are about. It is not needed nor should be tolerated for anyone to conduct or allow this tye of behavior. If the serviceman/woman is a true warrior, they will just do their job and learn from that enemy action. The only way to ensure that the few weirdos that will always get thru to any unit, is to punish them seriously to deter the next weak minded individual/s that might be tempted to do this.

• Muslim World Is Rife With 9/11 Conspiracy Theories

  October 2, 2010 at 12:27pm

  In reply to VanGrungy.

  How dangerous is small gov’t, reduced spending by the govt , increased individual freedom (and responsibility), original source history, and the return to faith based life???? Really are you serious or just a communist that cant stand the Constitution, or what this country stands for in the scope of human development? No other country has limited it‘s gov’t with a Bill of Rights, not one. No other country has educated more, allowed more personal wealth and all of those accomplishments happen to this day , regardless of Progressives that strive to turn back the Bill of Rights and reduce individual freedom-chew on that before you throw most dangerous man out there like you have any idea about the dangers out there, (like Iran, AQ, Marxists and polarizing rabble rousers like you)

• Science Czar Refuses to Answer Questions, Pushes Journalist on Elevator

  September 30, 2010 at 7:29pm

  these men, this group of progressives are true enemies to the American way of life, and the Constitution. They think they can run the world because of their smug belief that they are smarter than the rest of us. I am shocked that after serving for 25 yrs, that my America is now run by men that I would have targeted and killed when I enlisted, hell-in 2001!! I feel somedays that I am in a bad dream….With the idea of handing out Broadban as a “right” I hear the Nazi party handing out radios, with what stations you can listen to under penalty of death!! they are retruning with it new “Final Solutions’ to problems that they have with us, our beief in the Constitution and our inalienable rights.
