MEMORIAL DAY 2010

Greetings and Salutations to All my Kith and Kin and All the Ships in Outer Space:

Once again, the Memorial Day weekend is upon us.

I refuse to observe the Monday holiday, and steadfastly cling to the traditional observance on the Thirtieth of May.

Also, I think it's downright sacrilegious to "celebrate" Memorial Day with parties, banquets, pageantry, and public performances.

If we want to honor our living veterans, then we have other days of the year that are more appropriate, such as Armed Forces Day, the United States Army Birthday, and of course, Veterans Day.

But, Memorial Day is supposed to be a solemn military observance reserved solely for honoring our military dead.

Similarly, Memorial Day is not the proper time for families to be decorating the graves of their kin who did not serve in our military forces.

There are three hundred and sixty-four other days that families can do that.

Please, let's return to the traditional solemn military observance of Memorial Day on the Thirtieth of May.

Furthermore, let's remember the historic origins of Memorial Day, which was originally called Decoration Day.

It began as a Southern custom, maintaining the graves of Confederate war dead, which when witnessed by Northerners, was plagiarized by General John A. Logan in 1868.

Thank you.

May God bless these United States of America.

"OLD BUTCH"

John was in the fertilized egg business.

He had several hundred young hens, called "pullets", and ten roosters to fertilize the eggs.

He kept records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was replaced.

This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them to his roosters.

Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from a distance, which rooster was performing.

Now, he could sit on the porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the bells.

John's favorite rooster, old Butch, was a very fine specimen, but this morning he noticed old Butch's bell hadn't rung at all!

When he went to investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets, bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would run for cover.

To John's amazement, old Butch had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring.

He'd sneak up on a pullet, do his job, and walk on to the next one.

John was so proud of old Butch, he entered him in the Renfrew County Fair, where he became an overnight sensation among the judges.

The result was, the judges not only awarded old Butch the No Bell Piece Prize, but they also awarded him the Pullet Surprise as well.

Clearly, old Butch was a politician in the making.

Who else but a politician could figure out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when they weren't paying attention?

Vote carefully in the next election.

The bells are not always audible.

"BLOWING IN THE WIND"

Composed by:
BOB DYLAN

How many roads
Must a man walk down,
Before you call him
A man?
How many seas
Must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps
In the sand?
How many times
Must a cannon be fired
Before it's forever banned?
The answer, my friend,
Is blowing in the wind.
The answer is
Blowing in the wind.

How many years does
A mountain exist
Before it's washed
To the sea?
How many years
Must some people exist
Before they're allowed
To be free?
How many times
Will a man
Turn his head
Pretending he
Just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend,
Is blowing in the wind.
The answer is
Blowing in the wind.

How many times
Will a man
Look up
Before he can
See the sky?
How many ears
Must one man have
Before he can
Hear people cry?
How many deaths
Will it take
'Til he knows
That too many people
Have died?
The answer, my friend,
Is blowing in the wind.
The answer is
Blowing in the wind.

OKLAHOMA CITY

*******************************
*******************************
Had those responsible for the killings at Ruby Ridge, Idaho and the Waco Massacre been prosecuted, there never would have been an attack on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City.

By the way, I continue to hold the federal government responsible for the deaths of the children in Oklahoma City.

After all, they know better than to locate a child day care facility inside a military target, and federal office buildings ARE legitimate military targets.

IF YOU ARE AS OLD AS I AM - - -

If you are as old as I am, then we have a responsibility to tell the young folks about what life USED to be like in the United States of America, many years ago, long before they were born.

We must tell of the personal liberties that have been lost, and of the sudden general deterioration of morality.

The mainstream news media won't report it.

The public schools won't teach it.

Our government, at every level, suppresses it.

Our churches are too embarrassed to tell the truth.

Hollywood movies won't depict it.

So, it's up to us, the old, to tell the young, if only they will listen.

I believe it all began on Monday 17 May 1954 with "OLIVER L. BROWN VERSUS BOARD OF EDUCATION OF TOPEKA, SHAWNEE COUNTY, KANSAS".

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?

For a larger view, please click on the picture.

This is an official United States Army photograph, taken by Adrienne M. Combs, Deputy Directress of Public Affairs for the Military District of Washington, on Thursday 20 May 2010, at Fort McNair, in the District of Columbia, of the Third Infantry Regiment (i.e., the "Old Guard") in a public performance of their Twilight Tattoo.

There are two (02) problems that I see.

First, foremost, and of paramount concern, this is supposed to be an INFANTRY unit, which although designated for ceremonial duty, remains trained and prepared for combat response as an armed unit of the line.

Having a female assigned to any infantry unit belittles that organization.

Secondly, to add insult to injury, the female, whose insignia indicates she is commissioned in the Adjutant General's Corps, is in a command position, and wearing a MALE uniform, which is possibly a violation of official regulations dictating the proper care and wearing of the uniform.

Male soldiers, and especially combat troops of the line, should never be placed in the position of having to take orders from a female, for it is a confusing perversion of traditional roles, which is emasculating and detrimental to troop morale.

This is a terrible precedent to be setting for our combat forces, and is only one of numerous symptoms of the rapid destruction of our army, our nation, and our contemporary society, dating back (I think) to the Monday 17 May 1954 Supreme Court of the United States decision of Oliver L. Brown Versus Board of Education of Topeka, Shawnee County, Kansas, which usurped powers by the federal government never authorized by our divinely inspired Constitution of the United States.

Since our political system no longer functions, rendering elections and protests in vain, the only practical solution is a bloody, violent, armed revolt against the current administration, to forcefully seize the government in order to RESTORE our lost republic, to RESTORE our sacred and divinely inspired Constitution of the United States, to RESTORE the inalienable rights of the individual citizen, to RESTORE sovereignty to the several states (including their right to secede), to RESTORE our free enterprise economy, and to RESTORE our cherished values of traditional Christian family morality.

When this revolt begins, which side will the United States Army be on?

Each of them publicly swore a solemn oath before Almighty God, but the question is, will they keep that oath?

In fact, ere the opening shots are fired, each American citizen is now compelled by circumstances to decide - - - ,

Is your loyalty to the government, or is your loyalty to the Constitution and our Republic?
