Trump is right. John McCain was no “Real” hero

Considering John McCain’s vulnerability regarding his past, it is probably in his best interest to shut up, and certainly he would be wise to avoid insulting fellow Republicans, especially Donald Trump. Let’s review:

1. John McCain was a below average student, getting into the Naval Academy due to his father’s and grandfather’s influence and naval careers. Both were admirals. McCain was a boozing, smoking, womanizing party animal, graduating fifth from the bottom of his class at Annapolis.

2. John McCain’s arms were broken not from being tortured by the North Vietnamese, but when he improperly ejected from his plane over North Vietnam. According to his fellow prisoners he was never tortured by the North Vietnamese.

3. John McCain’s nickname amongst his North Vietnamese captors was Songbird, as he was eager to tell them anything they wanted to hear to avoid torture. It is claimed that he made 32 propaganda videos for the North Vietnamese in which he blamed the United States for targeting schools, temples, orphanages, and hospitals. McCain has admitted to making one propaganda video. This puts him in the Jane Fonda class.

4. John McCain’s first marriage ended in divorce after his wife left him because of his many affairs with other women.

5. John McCain was the major obstruction to the passage of key POW/MIA legislation, which would have released classified records regarding these men and their fates.

6. John McCain has been a career beltway parasite since the mid 80s.

7. John McCain supported Barack Hussein’s war in Syria, which the American people overwhelmingly rejected. He even went to Syria to hang out with the rebels, who he claimed were not terrorists. Today they go by another name – ISIS.

8. John McCain is a global warming alarmist. While the majority of the rest of the world, including most of the scientific community, has rejected the notion of global warming, McCain and fellow believers Al Gore and Barack Hussein continue to preach the gospel. Actually, we all know they don’t believe it. They just see a barrel of money there.

Would you wear the Collar of a Slave?

Barrack Hussein Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton along with George Soros and the rest of the Progressive Clan embarked on a quest to remake America into something other than what it was decades ago. Their vision born during the late ‘60s and early ‘70s was molded from the writings or Karl Marx, Saul Alinsky, Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. Many others contributed to their vision of an enslaved people under their rule but this is not a detailed academic paper; it’s just an opinion piece.

Before I start I must add the when I joined the US Army after graduating from college in 1965 and got my commission and became a Green Beret I never envisioned that what we were then trained to combat would in the future be happening to the country I so loved. One must understand that back then Green Berets were not “Commandos” we were way more than that. Just to get in you needed to be Hi IQ and physical fit both enlisted and officer but more importantly be able to operate independent of the regular Army command structure.

We were small teams of 12 men who were trained to be able to take down an entire country. Yes we knew weapons and explosives and military tactics but more importantly we knew how to work with the people in a country and show them how to take over their country and create a new government that wasn’t oppressive. Hence our motto De Oppresso Liber It is United States Army tradition that this phrase in Latin is considered to mean “to free from oppression” or “to liberate the oppressed”, in English; A literal translation of the phrase de oppresso liber would be “from (being) an oppressed man, (to being) a free one”.

Why does this matter? Well that training allows us; the older Beret’s to see that what is going on in America is the very thing we were fighting to stop in other countries. Back then the states and local governments took care of the people and the federal Government was more closely following the intent of the founders to leave the people alone, it was none of the business of the fed’s what we did. Were there things that could have been better, of course, we are mortals and not Gods but what we had was the best system ever devised by man.

But there are always those that wish to rule us and that first paragraph gives a partial listing of the current ones albeit a few are no long with us and I hope they are in hell now for what they did to our country the how they did it reflects on us for not seeing it and believing their tall tales of what they would do for us; even though we know there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Is it too late for us now? Maybe but all is not lost and it may yet be possible to stop the takeover of the local governments by the wannabe rulers in Washington DC. Wake up American and reject ANY Federal money at the local or state level. It all come with strings and on the end of that string is the collar of a slave. Do you really want to wear it?

The Coyote Principle

My American Legion Post Adjutant and, like me, a Vietnam vet sent me this this afternoon, so I thought I would pass it on.

The Coyote Principle

CALIFORNIA

The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks the Governor’s dog, then bites the Governor.

The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie “Bambi” and then realizes he should stop because the coyote is only doing what is natural.

He calls animal control. Animal Control captures the coyote and bills the state $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.

He calls a veterinarian. The vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases.

The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged.

The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is now free of dangerous animals.

The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a “coyote awareness program” for residents of the area.

The State Legislature spends $2 million to study how to better treat rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world.

The Governor’s security agent is fired for not stopping the attack. The state spends $150,000 to hire and train a new agent with additional special training for the nature of coyotes.

PETA protests the coyote’s relocation and files a $5 million suit against the state.

TEXAS

The Governor of Texas is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks his dog.

The Governor shoots the coyote with his state-issued pistol and keeps jogging. The Governor has spent $.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge.

The buzzards eat the dead coyote.

And that, my friends,

is why California is broke and Texas is not.

Afterburner with Bill Whittle: ‘Defense Debacle’

In the latest Afterburner video by Bill Whittle entitled “Defense Debacle” he explains how there are actually cuts that can be made to the defense budget and he cites a single example of how $1 trillion can be saved by cancelling just one program. July 16, 2015

The Republicans and Democrats conspired to guaranteed that Iran got everything that they wanted

Congress passed H.R.1191 – Iran Nuclear Agreement Review Act of 2015 on 5/22/2015 and Obama signed it making this public law 114-17 PDF

This bill requires Congress to pass a resolution of disapproval to reject the deal, which would almost certainly be vetoed by Obama. Then, Congress would be required to muster votes from two-thirds of each chamber to override the veto. All the president has to do to force a bad Iran deal on America is keep 34 senators of the Democratic Party or 145 members of Congress on his side which is can do with little effort.

What this legislation did was turn a 67 vote to pass into a 67 vote to stop.

There was no reason to pass this bill so one can only assume the Republicans wanted the deal just as badly as Obama did.

The top five reasons, in no particular order, the beltway political establishment, on both sides of the aisle, is terrified of Donald Trump

Re-post from the Powered Wig Society by Thomas Madison July 16, 2015

1. Trump is an outsider. He is not a part of the establishment political machine. Those in the political establishment are not his friends. In fact, he considers the establishment political machine his enemy, because it is! It is the enemy of anyone who is self-employed, from Joe the Plumber to The Donald. It is also the enemy of every American who is not a part of the establishment political machine, which is 99.9999999% of us.

2. Donald Trump is a patriot! He is as real as real gets. No phony baloney, no hedging. Just a genuine love for his country, which is clear in all that he says. There is no stammering when he is answering a question. He answers directly and honestly, and if you don’t like the answer, that is your problem. The problem for the political elite is that the American people do like his answers. In fact, they overwhelmingly love his answers, to which his skyrocketing poll popularity attests.

3. The Donald is beholden to no one! While the establishment politicians court K Street lobbyists for a little ass-kissing campaign coin, to be repaid with special interest favors, Trump does not play that game. He does not need their money. He does not want their money. They make him sick, just as they make all red-blooded American patriots sick. He can easily fund a presidential campaign that no other politician can compete with, and have billions left over.

4. Trump despises political correctness. He doesn’t have a politically correct bone in his body. Well, maybe one. Like all conservatives who are not in the empty suit career parasite class, The Donald finds the sickening beltway preoccupation and convention of political correctness repulsive. And it’s another game he refuses to play. He doesn’t care if you are black, white, Chinese, Mexican, gay, or disabled, you diss him and you are fair game. Charles Krauthammer recently remarked that Trump is “a rodeo clown,” to which The Donald replied, I am being called names “by a guy that can’t buy a pair of pants? Give me a break!”

5. Many of the current political players in DC could find themselves in hot water, maybe prison. The shameless corruption that has become standard business practice in Washington is obvious. Well-hidden, but obvious. Why else would faux conservatives like McConnell and Boner escort every Obama initiative through Congress, leaving the American people stunned and helpless to defend our once great nation against these venal scumbags? I imagine Donald Trump’s choice for Attorney General being Trey Gowdy, or a pit bull patriot like Gowdy. Oh, there would be hell to pay amongst the treasonous louts who have been leading America…. right over a cliff!

Liberty Lost Is Never Regained

A very long read but right on!

Sword At-The-Ready

American Christians by and large apparently cannot read the signs of the times. Tribulation is at our door and a lukewarm church is blind and infected with a fatal case of Normalcy Bias.

The following essay is from a sermon I had given on the July 4th weekend. It is a very long read, as it was a 90 minute sermon but it is what the lukewarm church in America needs to hear at such a time as this.

***

This is not going to be pleasant message and oftentimes the truth is not pleasant. I make no apology for it.

I did not feel like celebrating the 4th of July. Instead I grieved, in anger and bitterness. I’ve known for awhile now in my spirit that America as we knew her is over, and now given the last few weeks, a few more are beginning to see what I have warned about…

VA says it may shut down hospitals to close $2.5B budget gap

They spend the money they get on themselves with good salaries and bonuses for doing a good job (on taking care of themselves) and a few pennies here and there on the vets. Remember agent orange and the burn pits how many died before they would admit there was a problem.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot

The Department of Veterans Affairs may have to shut down some hospitals next month if Congress does not address a $2.5 billion shortfall for the current budget year, VA officials warned Monday.
The VA told Congress that it needs to cover shortfalls caused by an increased demand by veterans for health care, including costly treatments for hepatitis C. The agency also is considering furloughs, hiring freezes and other steps to close a funding gap for the budget year that ends Sept. 30.
The VA said it wants authority to use up to $3 billion from the new Veterans Choice program to close the budget gap, with as much as $500 million going to treat hepatitis C. A single pill for the liver-wasting viral infection can cost up to $1,000.
The Choice program, the centerpiece of a VA overhaul approved last year, makes it easier for veterans to receive federally paid…
