"Sean- Thank you for sharing that story with us. It was very interesting. It seems that Obama becomes whatever he thinks would benefit him, in what ever country he is in at the time. Didn't he talk about his Muslim roots on that trip? In Ghana,…"

A Penny
The other day I was asked “Why is it you put your two cents in but it’s only a penny for your thoughts?
What happened to the other penny?
Well I figured it out!
Big government figured out how to tax your thoughts to try and cover this huge deficit by B.O..
Barackricy at its best!

The true legacy
Ted Kennedy, the Legacy!
I say let's stick to the facts speak and get a couple things clear & not twist the facts to change the real history.
1. He was caught cheating at Harvard when he attended it. He was expelled twice, once for cheating on a test, and once for paying a classmate to cheat for him.
2. While expelled, Kennedy enlisted in the Army, but mistakenly signed up for four years instead of two. Oops! The man can't count to four! His father, Joseph… Continue

influence-peddling
Ahh yes let's go after the Republicans for influence-peddling. I'm sure that no one has an agenda for helping Democrats take over the State's House of Delegates would they? However, since we are talking about influence-peddling at this level, let's discus and investigate 95th District House of Delegates Mamye BeCote and 2nd District State Senator Mamie Locke, both professors at Hampton University. They both have pushed and voted on legislation that benefits their university employer. Not only… Continue

Another fine example
Did I see B.O. last night on the news at a supermarket produce department saying he has not been in one of these in a long time as he bit into a piece of fruit? Well I did. Now is this the example a man of his position should project? I guess I can walk into any produce department and start eating fruit without paying for it. No, I can not, you pay for it first. Is this a good example for B.O. to give to the people of this Country? Now when someone goes into a produce department and eats a… Continue

Reflection
I look back on the time when I served this Country in Vietnam and ask myself why?
The answer was to stop the spread of communism, and it was right!
I answered the call to serve this Great Nation in Iraq and Kuwait during Operation Desert Storm.
Again I asked myself why?
We will not allow a dictatorship and terrorism to spread to other countries that are friendly to the United States and possibly to our land.
Then came 9/11.
They… Continue
