I think this is what is called a slam dunk. Barack Obama has now proposed filling the three positions in the US administration most concerned with the security of the nation and the defence of the free world, those at State, Defence and the CIA, by three men who have all taken up positions which can only strengthen those who threaten the security of America and the survival of the free world…
…These three men, Hagel, Brennan and Kerry, are all examples of post-Vietnam demoralisation syndrome – the deeply pessimistic belief that America cannot and should not fight to defend its security and values anywhere in the world; that if bad people are defeated in war only worse people will ever take their place; and that therefore the best strategy for America is to buy them all off, pull up the drawbridge and retreat into a self-delusional isolation…
…If these three appointments are confirmed, Obama will have removed the last vestiges of independent thinking from his security and foreign policy team and honed his administration to deliver his uninterrupted vision for changing the geopolitical balance of the world. The fear is that, against the pivotal threat of our time, this will entail failing to prevent Iran from achieving nuclear capability while putting the screws on Israel to abandon its own nuclear arsenal. Thus the genocidal aggressor will be empowered, while its principal putative victim will be left defenceless –and the west will belatedly wake up to the fact that it is in a war it cannot win.
Beyond terrifying. Beyond belief.

In 1971, John F. Kerry testified on the Hill about what he said were atrocities committed in Vietnam by our Armed Forces. Turns out that every single Winter Soldier was a bold-faced liar. John Kerry was their spokesman and the leader of the Vietnam Veterans against the war. He was the premier Code Pinko of his day.
Before the war was even over John F Kerry traveled to North Vietnam to cavort with our enemies while we were still engaged in combat operations. In any other war, he would have been convicted for aiding and abetting our enemies in time of war, and taken out and shot or hung for high treason.
Instead, the people of MA saw fit to elect Ritchie Rich as one of their Senators.
Since VN, John Kerry has shown himself to be just another leftist empty suit. Bad for America; and an ally of all our enemies…
Wounded former Navy SEAL calls Rush Limbaugh to thank him for still giving a damn about this country
…Eight months ago Larry, a former Navy SEAL who did four tours in Iraq and four tours in Afghanistan, lost his right leg, part of his right arm, some of his fingers, and was disfigured on his face.
He told Rush that while he was coming off medication while recouping in the hospital he as able to listen to his radio show on a friends radio. And then he said something profound that I’m sure humbled Rush quite a bit: that while he was giving up on life, listening to Rush was propping him up because he realized there was somebody in this country who still gave a damn…
