A couple of weeks ago, I received an e-mail from a 17 year old, high school girl i ... |

I STILL have the small Bible I carried in the paddies in 1966-67. The odor of the Mekong Delta mud remains on it!
Good luck and godspeed to your son-in-law. |

This is NOT the ONLY boondoggle toward veterans this Nobama admin is part of. My son ( an Iraq war combat vet) had to go down to the Federal Building in West L.A. today, along with 50,000 other vets, ... |

I found out about his resignation at about 11:30 pm Saturday night. At that time, NO news channel (internet or electronic) had picked it up. It is truly scary to see how far in the tank the mainstream ... |

I've heard Rice mentioned before. I'd love to see the Clinton's and Obama squirm on this ticket. Better yet, the ticket should be Gov. Palin and Condie Rice! |

I remember this guy. I believe he should go into congress and fire a few rounds by the heads of some of the libs there. Waterboarding of a different kind! |
