Interesting S#$%

WoHooo!! Nick Popaditch is running for Congress!!

Popaditch-for-Congress

One of my favorite Marines, Gunnery Sgt Popaditch, is running for Congress (unfortunately in California, not Colorado).  He is a decorated Marine, and the author of “Once A Marine, an Iraq War Tank Commander’s Inspirational Memoir of Combat, Courage, and Recovery. ”

Check out his website and get your hands on his book – it’s a great read. He is just the kind of man we need in Congress.

And if he wants to move to Colorado….hint, hint…

Semper Feet

Semper Feet is the brain child of Mrs. P from A Little Pink in a World of Camo. She has gotten lots of pairs of socks donated to send to the Marines and now is in need of postage for the shipping. Give a click on the Semper Feet logo to find out more!! Every little bit helps. You can donate thru Soldiers’ Angels via paypal, just be sure to note that it is for Semper Feet, so it goes into the postage fund for this. Thanks in advance!!!

Who in the Hell is WHO???

The World Health Organization, a financially strapped and poorly managed arm of the corrupt and greedy United Nations wants more money. And they want us to provide it. How? Now coming to us via “wealth redistribution” on a global scale…..

  • a “digital” or “bit” tax on Internet activity, which could raise “tens of billions of U.S. dollars”
  • a 10 percent tax on international arms deals, “worth about $5 billion per annum”;
  • a financial transaction tax, citing a Brazilian levy that was raising some $20 billion per year until it was canceled (for unspecified reasons) (any guesses? How about to many GD taxes?)
  • an airline tax that already exists in 13 countries and has raised some $1 billion.

The idea, as with the “indirect” taxes that WHO is about to consider, is that a relatively small consumer levy, once implemented, is a low-profile and relatively painless way to create a global health-care tax  system. In other words, don’t let the sheep know whats going on until it’s to late.

Now, last time I looked, the United States still had a Constitution. Granted, Barry O and his minions seem to be trying to dismantle it as fast as they can, but if words have power, then these words should be binding upon our elected representatives:

“All bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.” Section 7 of the Constitution of the United States of America

NOT THE UN, NOT THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION – THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

“The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.” 10th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America

IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT DELEGATED TO DO THIS, THEN THE POWERS ARE RESERVED TO THE STATES.  NOT THE UN,  AND NOT THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION.

It is way past time to kick the United Nations out of the US. They need us way more than we need them and their latest shenanigans  (looky at whose  ass warms the seat of the Human Rights Commission), make them even more of a joke.  If it wasn’t so serious, it would be laughable.

However, I think I know what BO’s plan is now – let the UN take over the United States, get elected anointed as the head of the UN and then it’s EMPEROR OF THE WORLD!!!!

I wonder what’s after that.

Sorry, BO, I don’t think God is going to quit his job anytime soon.

What More Could You Ask For???

Pictures Not Yet….

Well, I was going to post pics of my hair cut for the Hair Raiser, but the file is to large (bigger is better, isn’t it? but I digress). Anyway, you can hop on over to my Facebook page and have a look at the album for the Hair Raiser. When I get the file trimmed down to size it will magically appear on this blog. Right.

You still have a chance to donate $1 to Soldiers’ Angels and get a guess on how many inches of hair I cut off. Kelly Goss, one of our Military Wives and a great Hair Stylist, did the deed and will do it again IF I RAISE $1000 !!!! IN A HIGH AND TIGHT!!!!

COME ON FOLKS -  You will spend more than $1 on junk food tomorrow – why not donate it to Soldiers’ Angels and get a chance to have me send a great goodie box to your deployed guy/gal  from the SA store?
