ALL GAVE SOME, SOME GAVE ALL
Words have yet to be invented that could adequately describe the awe and respect I hold all those who are wearing or have worn the uniform of our country. To willingly put yourself in harm’s way because you have a deeply help conviction that what we have is worth defending takes a spirit that few possess. I’m still waiting to hear anyone tell me the principle that liberals would actually pick up a weapon and face a deadly fire to defend. They cannot. Their ideology is based on weakening the strong and preying on the ignorant. A feudal system where they are the chosen ones who impose their will on the masses by addicting them to government largesse then keeping them barely subsistent. Theirs is a system predicated on empty rhetoric. They have no real core beliefs. That takes something they know nothing about. It’s called guts.
I wonder how the heroes who rest here for eternity would feel if they knew that a majority of the country have squandered the freedoms they paid for in exchange for a life of servitude to a federal handout from a totalitarian regime.
These men went off to war and won every major battle. The war was lost at home thanks to liberals who now teach our children and run our media. Our current Secretary of state insults their memory by bragging about being among them when he only wanted to enhance his political resume. They were treated shabbily when they came home,when all they wanted was for their country to love them as much as they loved it.
When these men fought for our freedom the entire country supported them. Those at home went to work and sacrificed so our soldiers would have everything they needed to win. This will never happen again as people have become selfish and lazy.It is easier to sit and criticize than it is to get up and defend what you think is right. We have gone from a monarch in England to one who’s set himself up here. And a shot was never fired.
I have posted a few related items. This is not a day for politics. It is a day of remembrance for those who served and still serve. They earned it.

The Ten PM Phone Call
There is good reason to believe that Barack Obama himself is responsible for the “Blame The Video” Benghazi cover-up.
(There is a 6 hour time difference between Benghazi, Libya and Washington, D.C. Times given are Washington time.)
Between mid-day of Friday, September 14 through mid-day of Saturday, September 15, Obama’s people and Clinton’s people shot emails back and forth, working out just how to remove all mention of Islamic terrorism from the CIA’s talking points.
On Sunday morning, September 16, 2012, Obama’s U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice appeared on all the major television stations swearing it was all about the YouTube video.
September 16, 2012: Susan Rice on ABC [1:52]
Why would Clinton and Obama collaborate in an absurd and elaborate lie?
Obama was running for reelection and election day was 56 days after the Benghazi attack … plenty of time for a scandal to develop enough to sink his chances, not enough time for said scandal to fade or be overshadowed by other hot topics.
Clinton was positioning herself for the 2016 presidential campaign and needed Obama to win so she would not be running against an incumbent Republican.
Together, Obama and Clinton had been the architects of the American foreign policy of empowering Muslims because they only don’t like us because Bush was such a bad guy. See, if we would be EXTRA NICE to them, they would obviously return the favor and be EXTRA NICE to us.
Thus, when Nidal Hassan shouted, “Allahu Akbar” before opening fire on his co-workers at Fort Hood, the Obama narrative demanded it be classified as nothing more than “workplace violence.”
That Obama Narrative was that Hassan was just really upset about all the sad stories his PTSD patients told him about all the sucky things that happened to them while fighting Bush’s Stupid War. Hassan had never seen combat, but you know … he was just THAT compassionate. And it totally follows that, being a real sensitive guy and loving his military patients so deeply, he would totally deal with his angst by murdering fellow military personnel. Right?
So when more than 100 guys known to be affiliated with al-Qaeda attacked America (a U.S. consulate is U.S. soil) wearing the Afghan-style tunics favored by Islamic militants and armed with hand grenades, assault rifles, mortars, rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), heavy machine guns and artillery mounted on gun trucks, it HAD to be blamed on Racist Right-Wing Intolerant Bush Style Islamophobia.
It was even more important, so close to the 2012 election, that the Obama-Clinton “We’re Not Big Meanies Like Bush” foreign policy be perceived as having succeeded. Whoever among them located that pathetic YouTube video deserved a raise. From what I heard, it had been viewed all of 300 times before it got blamed for having set off an international incident.

The latest assault on our freedoms
- Catholics being forced to pay for birth control.
- Pro-Lifers being forced to fund abortion.
- Tea Partiers being targeted by the IRS for special audits.
These and more have already happened.
Now, the Obama Administration is demanding that military personnel keep their faith to themselves.
I am not making this up.
It’s okay for military personnel to tell everyone about their sexual preferences. Anyone who is uncomfortable and feels this is TMI is supposed to just shut up about it.
But if one soldier says out loud, “I believe in God,” and another soldier reports to his CO that this made him “uncomfortable”, then the soldier who shared can be court martialed.
- Veteran suicide rate is 300% that of the overall population.
- Once every hour, a man or woman who volunteered to serve becomes despondent enough to die.
- You might think that messages of HOPE and FORGIVENESS would be encouraged.
- You would be wrong.

Heroes
Fifteen active duty soldiers participated in the grueling Boston Marathon wearing uniforms and carrying 40+ lb backpacks to honor fallen comrades and raise money for their survivors. It was called Tough Ruck.
They were at the finish line when the bombs went off, yet somehow found the strength to help tear down barricades and free trapped bombing victims.
Video taken immediately after the terrifying explosions that killed three people and injured 183 Monday show these heroes running toward the bomb site.
Army Sgt. Bernard Madore and 1st Lt. Steve Fiola say they never expected to have to mobilize in response to an attack in their hometown but were ready to answer the call of duty. Bernard Madore, who has been deployed twice to Iraq, said the scene in Boston ‘was by far one of the most horrific scenes’ he’d ever seen.
The spirit of the Tough Ruck challenge wasn’t just limited to Boston. Two deployed Army soldiers, who are Massachusetts natives, participated in the event in Afghanistan. They were at mile 19 miles when they learned of the Boston tragedy and pressed on in solidarity with the victims of the attack.
‘[We’ve] never Rucked harder and faster in their lives,’ they said about completing the remaining miles with the knowledge of the terror that had been unleashed in their hometown.

The govt’s putting a target on your Bible
Last week, Fox News reported that an Army training instructor told a Reserve unit based in Pennsylvania that Evangelical Christianity and Catholicism were examples of religious extremism. The Army categorized that episode as an isolated incident.
Not so.
A U.S. Army officer sent an email to three dozen subordinates at Fort Campbell in Kentucky listing the American Family Association and Family Research Council as “domestic hate groups” and warned officers to monitor soldiers who might be supporters of the groups.
These are just the latest.
Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Jerry Boykin, who served more than 36 years in the military before retiring in 2007, says that since Obama took office, the attacks on religious liberty have escalated alarmingly. Among the incidents:
- A War Games scenario at Fort Leavenworth that identified Christian groups and Evangelical groups as being potential threats;
- A 2009 Dept. of Homeland Security memorandum that identified future threats to national security coming from Evangelicals and pro-life groups;
- A West Point study released by the U.S. Military Academy’s Combating Terrorism Center that linked pro-lifers to terrorism;
- Evangelical leader Franklin Graham was uninvited from the Pentagon’s National Day of Prayer service because of his comments about Islam;
- Christian prayers were banned at the funeral services for veterans at Houston’s National Cemetery;
- Bibles were banned at Walter Reed Army Medical Center – a decision that was later rescinded;
- Christian crosses and a steeple were removed from a chapel in Afghanistan because the military said the icons disrespected other religions;
- Catholic chaplains were forbidden to read an archbishop’s letter to parishioners about Obamacare mandates.

Dancing on the Dead
Seven Marines were killed during a training exercise in Hawthorne, Nevada. How did our illustrious Senate Majority Leader choose to honor them? By using them as political pawns, of course.
Allen West tweets @SenatorReid: Disgusted by your attempt to politicize the death of 7 Marines in NV. If you possessed any shred of honor, you’d apologize now.
Selections from among the (printable) Tweets and comments at Twitchy:
- Reid is a pathetic tool who is incapable of knowing when to politic and when to honor.
- How dare he attempt to earn political points using the death of Marines. Disgusting.
- Liberals dance best when it’s on someone’s grave.
- Anyone unfortunate enough to step in a pile of Reid should let it dry and then brush it off with a stiff brush.
- If Reid truly cared about Marines, he and the Senate would have introduced and/or passed a budget.
- He still hasn’t apologized for falsely accusing Romney of not paying 10 years of income taxes.
- His ethics are lower than whale dung.
- A 60 mm round detonated in a mortar tube. Does Reid honestly think sequester made that round malfunction?
- Reid is a PERFECT example of why we need a mandatory retirement age for Congress.
- Harry Reid actually embodies the epithets against Dick Cheney.
- Rest in peace Marines and thank you for your service.
