MILITARY VETERAN RELATED
The
message printed below has been received at least twice in E-mails and, since it
is not far removed from Linden’s beliefs, it, with minor editing, is reprinted below.
“A
movement has been started by our armed forces to get out the vote in
2014.. They are organizing themselves, but this can be done by all of us.
The President, the Commander in Chief, has made the Rules of Engagement
(ROE) so difficult, that our troops are often killed before they can even
get permission to fight. Nothing has been done to stop our troops from
being murdered by the Afghanis they are training, either. Now, the
President wants the US to sign on to t he UNs International Criminal Court
(ICC), which would allow the UN's ICC to arrest and try US troops for War
Crimes, without the legal protections guaranteed under US Law, and from
which there is no appeal. The President, with his Democratic control of
the Senate, has nearly all the power. If the Non-Establishment
Republicans, and Conservatives, can take back the Senate in 2014, our
troops can once again be protected from unnecessary danger. Please
consider this, and send it on to your mailing lists.
Interestingly enough, when GWB was president you heard about the military
deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan almost daily. With Obama in the White
House, the mainstream media has been strangely quiet. ---
More than 1,000 American soldiers have lost their lives in Afghanistan in
the last 27 months. This is more than the combined total of the nine years
before. Thirty have died in August. During the last month, over 50
additional NATO and US servicemen have been murdered, inside jobs by those
who are hired to be a force for good in Afghanistan.
The commander in chief is AWOL. Not a peep, although he ordered the White
House flag flown at half-staff for the Sikhs that were killed. There is a
deep disgust, a fury, growing in the ranks of the military against the
indifferent incompetence of this president.
It has taken on a dangerous tone. No one knows what to do about him, but
the anger runs deep as the deaths continue with no strategic end in sight
to the idiocy of this war. Obama has had 4 years to end this futile
insanity, during which time he has vacationed, golfed, campaigned, and
generally ignored the plight of our men and women in uniform. But, there
is now a movement afoot in the armed services to launch a massive get out
the vote drive against this president.
Not just current active duty types, but the National Guard, Reserves, the
retired, and all other prior service members. This is no small special
interest group, but many millions of veterans who can have an enormous
impact on the outcome of the November election if they all respond.
The
one million military retirees in Florida alone could mean an
overwhelming victory in that state if they all show up at the polls. It
might not keep another one hundred U.S. troops from dying between now and
November, but a turn out to vote by the military against this heart
breaking lack of leadership can make a powerful statement that hastens a
change to the indifference of this shallow little man who just lets our
soldiers die.”

Monday
was a gloomy, rainy day so I stayed inside and was reasonably busy all day,
except for a trip to the post office.

REMEMBER
The
democrats brought you Obamacare: Get even.
Obama,
Reid, and Pelosi lead the forces of evil.
Can
a non-voter be a good Christian?
Hate
crime laws should be overturned.
Baseline
budgeting is a taxpayer insult.
Each
member of Congress should reduce spending
By
$3 billion. Result: no deficit spending.
Many
Hoosier voters were fooled by Joe Donnelly.
