Interesting Political Items

I’m back. Nothing like riding horses with your granddaughter in the Black Hills, instead of reading newspapers and the ‘net, to restore the soul.

So I return to find that “Cap & Trade,” probably the Smoot-Hawley bill locking in this recession, has passed. And people are gushing over the late Michael Jackson. I suppose they will honor him on a postage stamp, in a new “Famous Child Molesters” series, to go with Elvis from the “Famous Drug Abusers” stamp series. Meanwhile, men and women dying to protect an America pass with little but perfunctory notice. One wonders, in the black hours of the night, if this nation deserves protecting.

Prediction. Within two years, there will be an attempt to eliminate the Marine Corps. After all, they can’t expect to make the Republic subservient to foreign interests and anti-freedom statist policies while the Corps exists.

Friends have been filling my inbox with interesting items. A few are below.

  1. Hi Old Jarhead!

    Do you live near the Black Hills? I'm from South Dakota, though from the Eastern part of the state. I love the Hills and hope to get back there some day.

    Thanks for your site. I think I got to it via Michelle Malkin's site. I appreciate the way you think and articulate your opinion.

    Thank you, too, but most of all, for your service in the Marine Corps. I'm an AF brat and
    truly appreciate the sacrifices made by folks such as yourself more than words can express.

    Keep fighting the good fight.
