It takes everyone liberal and conservative to run the politics of the engine we call America! Patrotic American warriors defend with their life the right of pacifists to hold the wrong opinions. The Blogmaster harbors some populist ideas and believes in free enterprise as opposed to corporate monopoly capitalism. This is a mostly GOP friendly blog. jdm
To my friend Sergi the sometimes liberal from the left coast: I know this is not possible and it is a spoof and not due to my senility
Communities that have shown antagonism to the defense of our nation by baning ROTC or passing ordnance that are anti-military should be placed "off limits" to military personel and all bases should be moved to military friendly areas. It is just not right to ask our troops to put up with disdain and contempt heaped on them by rogue city governments.

Hillary’s Antics Help the GOP
As Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton barnstorms across the nation in her quest for the White House, is she doing the Democratic Party more harm than good, and in fact, really helping the GOP?
NewsMax Magazine’s special report “She Can Save the GOP” reveals why Clinton could be the ideal Democratic candidate — IF Republicans hope to retain control of the White House. The report also reveals why some top Democrats desperately want to dump her from the ’08 ticket.
This edition of NewsMax Magazine is selling out at newsstands across the country, including many Barnes & Noble, Hastings, Follett, Borders, B. Dalton, Books-a-Million, Joseph-Beth and other major bookstores. (We’re even in many Publix supermarkets in the Southeast and Meijer supermarkets in the Midwest!)

Her husband is war profiteer
Feinstein Resigns
Senator exits MILCON following Metro exposé, vet-care scandal
By Peter Byrne
SEN. Dianne Feinstein has resigned from the Military Construction Appropriations subcommittee. Feinstein was chairperson and ranking member of MILCON for six years, during which time she had a conflict of interest due to her husband Richard C. Blum's ownership of two major defense contractors, who were awarded billions of dollars for military construction projects approved by Feinstein.
As MILCON leader, Feinstein relished the details of military construction, even micromanaging one project at the level of its sewer design. She regularly took junkets to military bases around the world to inspect construction projects, some of which were contracted to her husband's companies, Perini Corp. and URS Corp.

You would think that, considering all the money Feinstein's family has pocketed by waging global warfare while ignoring the plight of wounded American soldiers, she would show a smidgeon of shame and resign from the entire Senate, not just a subcommittee. Conversely, you'd think she might stick around MILCON to try and fix the medical-care disaster she helped to engineer for the vets who were suckered into fighting her and Bush's panoply of unjust wars.
Christmas is returning to schools around the country at an alarming rate to the ACLU. In past years the Christian holiday was banned from many politically correct government schools and replaced with Winter Holiday. Holiday days, and was banned from school speech, decorations, signage and publications.
Walmart has announced they will return Christmas to it's signage.
Saudi King (in dress) with new friend China Dictator Hu at signing of a mutuality agreement
The Saudi king who once supported President Bush on the Iraqi war has now sided with the US Democratic congress in opposing it. The King also met with Al Queda and came to an agreement with them on the war. Al Qaeda has taken credit for most of the terrorists attacks on the USA including the twin towers murders. Perhaps now we can understand why most of the Twin Towers terrorists carried Saudi passports, a travesty that has never been addressed by our leaders.
It is time for Patriotic Democrats to stand up and be counted on the side of our country or be judged harshly by history and future voters.

The time is now!
How can you set there with that smug look on your face ...
eternity comes fast and you don't know your place ...
Fate is standing in the dark shadows playing to your pride ...
and here you are unconcerned like time was on your side ...
The day will come when your ladder of life has no more rungs ...
and all your choices will expire with the breath in your lungs. ..
The nearest Bible can help you make your choice of eternal habitation ...
for you can find Christ Jesus in every book from Genesis to Revelation. ..

Poem of my youth...composed on October 23, 2006
Tracks of a friend in the snow
I have lain on the path of bone chilling fear ...
watched as the death angel hovered near ...
Midnight I rode the trail where black lion stalked ...
my steed snorting his course stayed.. balked ...
I lost my seat and the moon swirled around ...
my head was the first to kiss frozen ground ...
My body bounced down the Arbuckles crag ...
the earth drank my blood and there I laid ...
and dreamed the dream of death’s opening door ...
of life unlived and path’s untracked with joy untasted ...
my future my claim on living gone as I lay wasted ...
but awareness came as light chased away the night ...
My companion grazed close by had kept the cat away ...
snow tracks around my death bed testified to his stay ...
my shirt red soaked with life’s precious fluid staining the ground ...
I drug my pain racked body to the saddle and started down ...
past the still waiting mountain lion eyes peering from thick weeds ...
the smell of my blood kept him waiting to quench his savage needs ...
I looked back as he smelled my blood spilled in the snow where I lay ...
then followed us for awhile before turning to find unguarded prey ...
Danpatch went to equine heaven during the next season’s winter strife ...
But in my dreams I still count the tracks of my friend who saved my life.

jdm10/23/2006 based on a true occurrence with some literary license applied...My dad was a cowboy and Danpatch had been his favorite horse until he was retired to be my horse. At the time of the poem Danpatch was over twenty years old and I was 12.
Don't Tread on My Flag
We must be very concerned about who we elect as President and Commander in Chief...They must be willing to affirm the Christian roots of this country and the heritage of free enterprise and religious freedom. The must disavow any connection to any other world opinion than one that puts American interests first! They must pledge to never be the instrument of American submission to any authority that subverts the High Law of the Constitution of the United States.At the very least as a potential Commander In Chief of United States Armed Forces they must be able pass and receive a personal Top Secret Clearance background check that we demand of our defenders.God Bless the USA Keep us Free!
