God Bless you, Specialist Stephen Fortunato

Michelle Malkin posts the last blog entry by Specialist Fortunato.  After posting this he was kill last Tuesday when hit vehicle was blown apart by an IED.

It’s worth reading, and remembering.  Here is a brief part of it:

I am a proud American. i believe that my country allows me to live my life more or less however i want to, and believe me, i have seen what the alternative of that looks like. i also believe that our big scary government does way more than it has to to help complete [expletive deleted]-ups get back on their feet, a stark comparison to places where leaders just line their own pockets with gold while allowing the people who gave them their power and privilage to starve. I have chosen my corner. I back my country, and am proud to defend it against aggressors.

God bless you, and bless your family in their time of pain.

I am Joe!

I have never been a big fan of politics, but I have always been proud of being an American.

I was taught in school that the government is supposed to work for the people; we are not supposed to be slaves to it.

I was taught that the press was the light that is shined on the government to help protect the people; not the propaganda arm that tells us what we should think.

But in over time, that seems to have been what has happened. I have watched in disbelief as the press has become more and more biased in its reporting and the government has become more and more oppressive of the peoples basic desires, the press has gone out of its way to destroy anyone who disagrees with what they have decided should be the truth, and one political party has adopted the lies, fraud and deceit that they try and pin on their opponents.

Joe “the plumber” Wurzelbacher was in HIS yard, minding HIS OWN business when Obama decided to stroll through and do a 30 second bite to drum up support. Unfortunately for Obama he stopped at Joe’s house and Joe asked a question that exposed Obama’s tax plans as the socialist ideas that they are. Joe asked “Are you going to raise my taxes?” and the response from the anointed one was “Yes”.

What happened next? The press goes and digs into every aspect of Joe’s life. We now know about his taxes, his divorce, how much he earned, how he registered to vote, and that he doesn’t have a plumber’s license in Ohio – WHICH HE DOESN’T NEED FOR RESIDENTIAL WORK! The City of Toledo is digging into his life looking for his paperwork; The Lefty blogs are trying to link him to Charles Keating, and the overall suggestion that this was a Republican plant and divert attention away from the point which is OBAMA SAID HE WILL RAISE TAXES.

And for those who say “Well it’s only on the rich” I say to you this: Who the hell decided that because you worked hard and became successful that the government has the right to take that away?  Anyone in this country can get a job, work hard and move up.  If you are waiting for the government to give you some money, then join the military – they will give you money, clothing, training, and a place to live.

This is the tactics of the left. No questioning of what they want to do. If you question you will be destroyed. It doesn’t matter if the question is legitimate, it doesn’t matter if the question applies to your personal situation, and you will NOT ask questions that are not approved of by the left.

For all that I hear the liberals out here screaming about how “Bush has taken away all of our rights” all I see is that it is the left that is trying to suppress our rights. They want to suppress our freedom of speech through intimidation tactics and threats of legal action. The want to suppress our right to a representative government through voter fraud, and they want to suppress our pursuit of happiness by “spreading the wealth around” so that any success you will achieve will be given to someone else.

If this is the change that Obama and the left want, then I think I would rather stay the course.

I am Joe!

Michelle Malkin has a great post about Joe

Decisions, decisions…

Well, since I figure if ‘That One’ wins the election I should stock up on my guns and ammo before he and those morons in Congress try to have the Second Amendment removed “for the children”, I am now trying to decide what pistols I should get that would work for concealed carry.

I must say that there are so many nice choices out there it is hard to decide, but I have narrowed it down to these two.  I would need one for the wife and one for me.

First one is the Sig Sauer P250.  Thing I like about this one is that it has changeable barrels so you can go from 9mm to .357 SIG, .40 cal, or .45 ACP.  It can also be changed from sub compact to compact to full frame, and if that isn’t enough, as a 9mm it will hold 15 rounds.    

The other one I am considering is the Walther P99.  9mm and holds 10 rounds and is very compact and concealable.

Decisions are hard, but this is one that I don’t think I will mind having to make.
