Hey focus on the real enemy...not heroes!!

Posted by crossbow on Thursday, April 30, 2009 10:04:10 AM
America has enemies...real ones. The events of 9/11 proved that fact just as the attack on our forces on Pearl Harbor did over 60 years ago.A very big difference between then and now can be found in this assesment from the dept of homeland security. What makes  this assesment so disturbing to me as a veteran of the military is the apparent direction their efforts are going in pointing out who the enimies of our liberties are.It strikes me so wrong that  the government is targeting as pontential threats the very ones who have pledged their very lives in defense of our constitutional liberties. If they want to see threats  to our nation all they have to do is look who were rejoicing after the attacks of 9/11 AND  who is spewing the latest anti- American poison at the so called "united"nations!!! I even saw a cable "news" reporter accusing the Patriots at a  tea party rally as being "anti-government".Please correct me if I am wrong but does not the constitution of this country says that we have a right to peaceful protest? I could go on here but I believe I've made my point. I have two nephews who are involved in our defense  efforts overseas. One just came back after his third tour in Iraq with the Ohio National Guard. The other is in the Air Force serving in Kuwait. They are heroes to me as ALL who genuenly loves this great nation and charish our God given liberty. My grandfather was a "doughboy" in WW1. My Dad was on a Navy distroyer in ww2.Both my brother Joe and I served during the cold war. My brother -a marine and me a Navy  avation electricians mate. In each and every one of these conflicts there was very little doupt who the real  threats to American liberty were. As the government goes about with assesments like this the real enemies of our country are laughing as they continue their way.

A lesson in Liberty...in 3 shots.

Posted by crossbow on Tuesday, April 14, 2009 9:31:38 AM
courtesy of the US Navy SEALS. The daring rescue operation that took place this past sunday was an outstanding success! US Navy SEAL snipers took out the oppressive Somili pirates with three shots thus rescuing the merchant captain Richard phillips whom they were illegally holding hostage. The pirates were no doupt thinking that they had things in their control. This was the very same thinking that the Bibery pirates thought in the 1800s when doing their crimes.Well, they thought wrong then and they thought wrong this time too!!! It does not surprise me much that this highly successful rescue mission took place on the very same day that we celebrate another stunning victory over evil. A victory that triumphed over death victorious--2000 years ago!
