Straight To The Point

-
This is how it is. What it comes down to is that the DFL feels triumph in things that are very, very bad for our country. There is no possible argument against that.

It is put succinctly here:

Left Cheers Terrorists' Victories

Yes, it's disgusting... but it is also very, very disturbing. Where are we going as a country when so many citizens are suicidal?

A Reminder Of True Class

-
My recent "discussion" with the liberal troll on my letter to Murtha post (see the comments on this post here) got me to thinking about how we "right-wing extremists" support the President. As I explained to the little troll, I do strongly support President Bush on many issues- especially on his standing up to evil, and on the wars.

While this administration (especially since they won re-election) has done many things that have made me spitting mad, I am still thankful each and every day that we were spared gore and j f'n kerry (he served in Vietnam, by the way).

What really brought many of us to President Bush's side in the first place, though? Well, a big part of it for me was his attitude and his class. Sometimes it is maddening to watch him take horrific insults and then turn the other cheek... but it is simply who this man is.

Here is a very good look at this subject... and it is a good reminder for all of us in these fractious times. An added bonus is that it is sure to upset lots of BDS liberals- like the troll I was "discussing" things with.

Lynch Those Marines!!

-
Here is a very powerful piece from Ralph Peters. It begins:

[[ Let's just hang those Marines accused in the Haditha incident. Get it over with. They don't need a court martial. They're guilty. The media already decided the case.

A few other Marines and soldiers are also accused of murder in Iraq. Save our tax dollars. Just hang them, too.

Forget the stresses of combat. Forget that war really is hell. Whatever you do, don't mention the atrocities committed by the terrorists or insurgents.

Those two young American soldiers tortured to death a few weeks ago? Bury that story fast. The terrorists are the good guys. We're the only torturers.

Don't close Guantanamo. Put our troops in the cells. There's no surer way to quell the media's outrage over Gitmo than freeing the terrorists held there and filling it with our soldiers. Don't worry about individual charges. Collective guilt applies.

Ignore history. Let's pretend that warfare can be waged with absolute sterility, without so much as giving the enemy a broken fingernail. War isn't about fighting. It's about making people happy.

Civilian casualties? The thousands of Iraqis slain by terrorists were legitimate targets. Iraqi civilians are only innocent victims when Americans kill them.
]]

It strikes me- and chills me to the bone- how much the DFL actually thinks like that. Their capacity for "blame America first" knows no bounds.

Anyway, this man speaks Gospel. Please read the whole column- you'll be glad you did.

Yeah... Good Luck With That

-
Every time they try to do something like this, it turns out with them misquoting scripture or some other sign of their ignorance and... well, un-godliness.

[[ Sen. Barack Obama chastised fellow Democrats on Wednesday for failing to "acknowledge the power of faith in the lives of the American people," and said the party must compete for the support of evangelicals and other churchgoing Americans. ]]

Well, strictly speaking, the liberals do acknowledge the power of faith in the lives of Americans... they acknowledge it by calling us "theo-cons" and the "extreme religious right" and other such colorful names. They acknowledge it by attacking Christians every single chance they get.

Sen. Obama Urges Democrats To Court Evangelicals

Seriously, though, Senator Obama had better watch out... the DFL base does not like this kind of right-thinking.

Conservatives had also better watch out... this guy, like any other liberal, very likely does not truly believe what he is saying. If he did, he would not be a liberal who claims to believe strongly in God... those being- virtually- mutually exclusive things. He is, very possibly, trolling for "moderates" and religious, old-school democrats.

Let's Talk, Sir

An Open Letter To Congressman Murtha


Dear Mr. Murtha,

I've had it. I've had enough sanctimonious hyperbole from you. This has been boiling inside of me for weeks and weeks now. As a retired Marine, I have to speak-up... or my conscience will not let me rest. I've been hoping against hope that you would wake-up and stop the dangerous nonsense... but I know now how foolish that was.

You are badly damaging our military's effectiveness with your irresponsible and completely false rantings. You have become one of the key "useful idiots" that our enemy relies upon for assistance. You are now standing on the same moral and intellectual ground as Cindy Sheehan and that mountainous pile of anti-Americanism, Michael Moore.

People see you now as "Osama's Congressman," and as someone putting forth "insane strategy".

Does this bother you? Does it worry you that most sane people think you are completely unhinged? That you have sold out your country's security for cheap political points? That you, as someone who used to wear a Marine Corps uniform, have made a complete mockery of "Semper Fidelis?"

I guess the Marine Corps part is the primary reason for me writing this. There are plenty of far-left people out there undermining our national security- and I could have chosen any of them for a letter like this... but the fact that you were once a Marine is the one thing I just cannot get over. I can't believe that you have said the things you have said about Marines. I am stunned that you could not give Marines the benefit of waiting until charges were investigated before you accused them of abhorrent atrocities.

Immediately and without hesitation, you took the side of our enemy and condemned those Marines... and by doing so, you have emboldened and strengthened the terrorists' cause. To me, that is worse than treason... it is betrayal of a very personal kind. How many Marines and soldiers will now be killed because of the new power you gave the terrorists? How many of America's enemies are celebrating with orgiastic glee the Congressman calling American Marines murderers?

Don't get me wrong, Sir- your behavior is not unprecedented. In my career, I saw several examples of what we call "Semper I." Do you remember "Semper I?" It is the exact opposite of "Semper Fi." It is the rare case where a Marine puts himself first- and the hell with his fellow warriors. "Semper I" is the sad reality of human nature... where even the deeper-than-blood-level connection that Marines share cannot overcome a basic flaw in some people. I've seen it before, and I'm seeing it now in you. Your political ambitions- and years of extreme liberal brainwashing- have brought you to moral ruin.

The worst part of it all in your case, though, is that the rest of the deranged far left have grasped onto your betrayal and found new strength in it- as have our enemies. They cite your "war hero" background as proof that your opinions are infallible. Around the world, America's detractors and enemies are seeing our very own media celebrate your "maverick" behavior. Honestly, Sir... how does that make you feel?

I'm sure you remember one of our Corps' most famous moments- when Gunnery Sergeant Dan Daly inspired his men into a no-win firefight with the words, "Come on, you SOB's! You want to live forever?" They answered with a resounding "No" through their actions... they went with him and, in spite of suffering horrendous casualties, they defeated the enemy. No one second-guessed his decision... no one criticized the Marines' actions.

That was World War I - the battle of Belleau Wood. We won that war.

Forget for a moment the fact that your far-left friends of today would crucify this legendary leader for such comments and behavior. Forget that many mistakes were made at all levels of the chain-of-command in that war- and every other war.

Let's just remember that Marines stick together... even when charging into the depths of hell. We do not sell out our fellow Marines. Ever.

You, Sir, have done just that. You have sold out not only the Marines involved in this particular incident- but all the rest of us, as well. You have told the world that Marines are deserving of no due-process because they are just blood-thirsty killers. You have made people believe all the false crap that the anti-American crowd has been trying to pin on us since Vietnam.

Your mistake cannot be excused as just the ramblings of an aging liberal politician. There is too much riding on the title you used to hold... that of Marine. The anti-everything crowd uses your past like a shield of invulnerability- as if you speak the total and complete truth since you used to be one of us. You make it appear that this is how any Marine would feel. Your betrayal is far, far more dangerous than that of other anti-American liberals.

All you had to do, Sir, was say "Let's wait until a full investigation is conducted." That's it. All you had to do was hold your tongue until we all know exactly what happened and who, if anyone, is to blame. The political gain, though, was too tempting... and so you stuck a giant knife in the back of our Corps... and then continued twisting it.

You then compound the betrayal of those Marines by saying things like "There is no way we can win (this war) militarily..." What kind of thing is that to say? Seriously... how completely far-gone do you have to be to say that? Have you asked yourself what Dan Daly would think of that statement? How about Presley O'Bannon... and Sergeant Jarred L. Adams... and Chesty Puller? Do you think they would approve of the things you are saying?

Most of us Marines try to hold ourselves up to the icons of our history... we use them as a measuring stick for our own performance. More than anything, Marines fear not living up to our predecessors. One thing that has always separated us from everyone else is that we do not forget our history... the honor and bravery of those Marines who came before us is the fuel that feeds our Corps.

With all due respect, Sir, you have become a dangerous fool. You have shamed the United States Marine Corps, and endangered countless lives- not to mention the damage done to our mission.

Play politics all you want... attack your political opponents as you see fit... but, for God's sake, leave the Marine Corps out of your politics. On behalf of the Marines, soldiers, sailors, and airmen serving our country now... please stop attacking our military and shut the hell up.

Most sincerely and respectfully,

Kurt G.
Gunnery Sergeant, USMC, Retired

War, Leadership, Losers, And Other Nouns

-
Okay, it's been a while since we have had a lengthy posting here... so, let's take a look at the life and/or death struggle our nation is currently involved in. We'll use three current columns to illustrate the very best and the very worst in us.

We'll begin with a trip down memory lane- back to World War II and Winston Churchill; who was, in my opinion, THE prototype for a wartime leader. I honestly believe that President Bush has learned from Churchill... the one area Mr. Bush has definitely remained solid in has been the war. It is obvious that this man is the exact type of leader our country needed after 9-11.

Anyway, here is a very nice reminder of history:

[[ Churchill’s first wartime speech to the British people as prime minister was shocking for its sobriety: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat.” He later warned the House of Commons: “Death and sorrow will be the companions of our journey, hardship our garment, constancy and valor our only shield.” And, while England rejoiced over the escape of thousands of British troops from a German onslaught at Dunkirk, Churchill injected his usual dose of realism: “Wars are not won by evacuations.” ]]

Even as some of our leaders stand firm, though, we have the other side. This column that reminds us of the greatness of Churchill also reminds us of how the left is trying very hard to lose it all for us. Please read the whole thing:

Churchillian Courage

- - - - - - - - - - - - -


Now, this next column represents a true Conservative attitude. The author believes in the very best of America... that our country will be what it always has been... that we will, indeed, rise to the occasion. For the record, I feel the same way.

Awakening A Sleeping Giant

- - - - - - - - - - - - -


Are we still a "sleeping giant?" Or, have we become a suicidal giant? Finally, for more juxtapositioning, we'll finish with another column reminding us of just who and what our enemy is... and how our own left wing is helping them.

God Under Attack...

-
...again.

I'm sure most everyone has seen this one (found it on Drudge), but I felt compelled to share.

Let's all be perfectly, one hundred percent clear here: the reason for this is because the religion in question is Christianity. That's it. Christians are the ones who always get the full brunt of the anti-Christian lawyers union. Christianity is the thing the DFL most fears and loathes.

Why Is This Not Reported?

-
Wow. Put this shoe on the other ideological foot, and imagine the headlines. Instead, it is a virtual secret in the old media.

Apparently, the DFL (and that is with HEAVY emphasis on the "deranged" part!) has decided that, when all else fails, they can always

Attack Seven Year-Old Children.

This is disgusting beyond measure. It is not about gay marriage or any other "social issue"... it is about the methods each side uses- and the lengths they will go to- in pushing their "issues."

In defense of those who beat small children, we should remember that the attack on the little boy took place on May 17th, which:

[[...was a targeted date because that is the anniversary of changing the marriage definitions in the state of Massachusetts to include homosexual unions. Emotions among many activists were running very high on this day. ]]

Got it. They can't be held responsible, because it is a very emotional day. Almost like December 7th, or September 11th...

Lord in Heaven above... if this is not terrrorism, then what is?

I try to remain calm when I see stuff like this... I really, really do... but this is exactly what turns Mr. Hand into Mr. Fist.

Good gore-News And Bad gore-news

-
The good gore-News is that (finally!) scientists are speaking up about the wacky (and false) things in the gorey-"movie."

Here's a taste:

[[ Professor Bob Carter of the Marine Geophysical Laboratory at James Cook University, in Australia gives what, for many Canadians, is a surprising assessment: "Gore's circumstantial arguments are so weak that they are pathetic. It is simply incredible that they, and his film, are commanding public attention."

But surely Carter is merely part of what most people regard as a tiny cadre of "climate change skeptics" who disagree with the "vast majority of scientists" Gore cites?

No; Carter is one of hundreds of highly qualified non-governmental, non-industry, non-lobby group climate experts who contest the hypothesis that human emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) are causing significant global climate change. "Climate experts" is the operative term here. Why? Because what Gore's "majority of scientists" think is immaterial when only a very small fraction of them actually work in the climate field.
]]

The bad gore-news? Well, maybe it's not too bad... unless you consider it bad news that:

Hating Haters Who Hate Us

-
We already know that they hate our military (and anyone else who is not like them)- now here is a thoughtful look into some reasons why they hate.

Why Do Liberal Media Despise Soldiers?

It's easy to just say "I don't care why they hate us- I hate them, too." But that doesn't really help matters. Since we're the adults here, we have to find a way to make these annoying kids behave... and that starts with understanding their idiotic and destructive behavior.

"But" Heads

-
Here's a fun game: try to find all the different ways this story tries to color good news bad. Seriously, it is amazing how proficient the media has become in absolutely refusing to tell good news that will, in any way, reflect positively on the President.

It really is all in perspective- this story could have been written in a completely different way (and probably is, somewhere). Unless you read carefully, you would not guess that the actual story here is good news (again) about our economy.

Unemployment... Is This Good News, Or Not?

Geez... I'm not any kind of conspiracy kook, but it is hard for me to think that there is not some kind of organized effort to keep from reporting on how good the economy has been.

Clear Thinking

-
Here is a very good column on the Haditha issue. Jed Babbin speaks wisely on what is happening, what will happen, and what SHOULD happen; in regards to the DFL and the media using this issue for their nefarious purposes.

He opens:

[[ The accelerating media feeding frenzy over the alleged killings of twenty-four Iraqi civilians in Haditha by US Marines last November is about to overwhelm American politics. Propelled by their most irresponsible war critics, the left will try use Haditha as it used My Lai thirty years ago: as a political tool to take apart America's support for the war and to shatter the legitimacy of our cause and the morale of our troops. ]]

There is one sentence in particular that says everything that needs to be said on this issue:

[[ We don't know what happened in Haditha... ]]

Right. We don't. Once we do, then we'll react accordingly. Not until then, though.

The Haditha Story

Dear Lord, deliver us from those who would use something like this for political gain.
