		<description>The Democraps are like kids in a candy store. They are so Money and Power hungry and could give a Rats Ass about our country, Or Us or our kids and grandkids. Selfish. As an American I try very hard to keep up with what&#039;s going on in Usurpersiville DC, but it is impossible. They are constantly passing bills while we have our pants around our ankles. Sneaky Snakes.
I read something the other day and it kinda lifted my spirits a little. Obama is temporary, D-Day is FOREVER. So true. We know who the true American Heroes are, and we must keep them close to our hearts. And we must fight for our American Heros that are fighting for us right now. Because they don&#039;t have a voice or they will go to the Brigg. We must protect them.</description>

		<description>I had 4 uncles that was in on the invasion of Normandy. Two were Marines, one was in the 82nd Airborne, and another aboard the flagship USS Philadelphia. They are all dead now but I think I can speak for them. They would remove their hats and scratch their heads while thinking &quot;WTF!!!&quot; Is this what we laid our lives on the line for? So some black son of a bitch could go bow to an arab, sucking ass for money and oil ? Is this what so many of our BROTHERS (not comrades) died for? So some black POS could apologize to our enemies and beg forgiveness? It&#039;s no longer OUR country, it is YOURS now. We kept it free for you and if YOU can&#039;t keep it free, then you deserve exactly what that muslim dickweed imposter has got planned for you.</description>

		<description>The present crew in Washington is completely unworthy to even be anywhere the seat of power in this great country. What a bunch of traitors. I went to Texas A&amp;M and the President of the University was a General Earl Rudder. Talk about a leader. Gen. Rudder commanded the attack on Ponte du Hoc at D-Day, and he showed the same courage and resolution as the President of A%M. Our present President Obama bows to our enemies as he kicks the crap out of the nation he is supposed to lead. 

God Bless our great nation. 

SALUTE....</description>

		<description>Fred

I spent this AM attending a USMC &quot;poolee&quot; event my daughter tool part in.
These events are familiarization excercises for young adults that are in the USMC Delayed Entry Program.

I&#039;m telling you all this because during a Q&amp;A with the parents, one of the leathernecks made note of how we all should be proud of our kids, joining the military during a time of war, and how he wishes America still had more of them.

Later, as I was talking to him and one of the other Marines, I made mention of his comment.

I said that I was amazed at the amount of turnout considering who was in the White House.

I know they didn&#039;t respond due to military regs, but the looks the three of us exchanged spoke volumes.

So yes my friend, I, like you, sometimes despair over the future of this country.

But I can&#039;t help but think that perhaps history will prove that Obama will simply turn out to be what he ia working so hard to become, a &quot;bump in the road.&quot;

And we can hope that the patriotic young men and women I saw today may help bring America back from the edge of the abyss, and perhaps will prove to be our country&#039;s next Greatest Generation</description>

		<description>You do realize?? The *GREAT* Ronald Reagan was the 1st one to install a *CZAR* on the American public?? A Drug Czar... 

And Reagan was also the 1st to allow amnesty for the ILLEGALS... 

Maybe it&#039;s just me but he really doesn&#039;t seem all that *great*, but, I suppose compared top Carter, Bush 41, Clinton, Bush 43 and Odumbi, he was a genius... 

It&#039;s a hell of a note when an American president can give this nation away and still be called great, we are expecting far too little I believe...</description>

		<description>Has anyone come across any photos of how Presidents, Reagan, Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson, Truman - to name a few of the &quot;old guys&quot; -  greeted the Saudis?  Was it with simply a handshake?  Were they as &quot;close to&quot; the Saudis as GWB (personal oil interests) and BHO (religious background)  are?</description>

		<description>Thanks for the excellent article,  Fred.  As I was watching and listening to clips of Obama&#039;s speeches, I couldn&#039;t help but think of Ronald Reagan.  Now THERE was a PRESIDENT!  Hopefully, there is another out there who can and will follow in his footsteps and HOPEFULLY, the voters will be awake enough to vote that person in.  

May God continue to bless America and keep her strong enough to come through these perilous times still intact until such a leader emerges.</description>

Today at 1:20 PM (9 minutes ago)

My eldest came back to gear up to fight here at home when the time comes.

The time has come.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Make NO mistake America, the time is coming, we WILL have open warfare in the streets and fields of this nation, it&#039;s only a matter of time, and sooner or later, we will fight here and win, or we will lose and AMERICA will die!

		<description>Mr. Roper,

This country is under attack by people even more sinister and power hungry than Hitler was. Our war is here and now. You and other patriots like us, are the leaders that will take this country back. We have the power, the will and the numbers to do so. If we all do our part, we can rid this republic of the leeches that are killing it.</description>

		<description>Fred, my dad fought in the hedgerows of Normandy, at the Bulge, crossing the Rhine, and at the final battle of WWII in Europe at the Elbe the day of the Surrender of Germany.  He was a patriot, and my hero.  Although we didn&#039;t always see eye to eye, I couldn&#039;t fill his shoes if I tried.  He retired from the Army in 1972 a full Colonel having went in the army in January, 1941 and moved up to full bull by his intelligence, his devotion to freedom and his hard work.  Dad passed away on September 3, 2000 and I miss him terribly.  However, I&#039;m glad he didn&#039;t live to see what has happened to his beloved Republic.  

One of these days though, a real leader will arise and we will take back our country, and on that day, dad&#039;s spirit will rejoice as will all of the real patriots.   

Thank you for this post, it is what patriotism is all about!</description>
