Lynn,

There is a Charter Scool in Odessa waiting on approval fromt he State that is funded and sponsored by a Radical Muslim Imam from Turkey. The Cosmos Foundation dba Harmony schools are in several Texas cities that are considered sanctuary cities. Fethulla Gulen is a Turkish Radlical Islamic Imam the fled Turkey in 1998 in fear of prosecution for attempting to overthrow the Turkish secular Democratic government. There is much information about this man and his agenda...we need to stop this indoctrination in Texas and the United States...

Lynn, I forgot to add that from a soldier or tactical standpoint, the situation at the "Sports Dome" (currently the Soldier Readiness Center) is not desirable and I am sure leaders are looking at it from this angle as well. Essentially, what you have are large quantities of unarmed soldiers lined up like ducks in a row waiting to come forward to whatever desk in an open aired dome setup. This is not good from a tactical standpoint and needs to change.

This is just an opinion from a larger picture standpoint... but function consolidation isnt necessarily a good thing in the military. As Ft Hood consolidates more functions into larger buildings (including a huge soldier in-processing center, humungus barracks, etc.) moving away from the multiple smaller building concept that formally populated the post, the risks of an explosion is a more dire problem than another shooting incident. IMO.

Although I dont think it will have the effect it would have made years ago when he represented the Killeen-Ft Hood area, it looks like "honey-bee Edwards" used his considerable political contacts to make another excellent political move.

The vast majority of us who you call "birthers" are not. We are reasonably intelligent working Americans who simply intend to "Trust but Varify" Is he or isn't he.

I mailed the following letter to Senator McCain's DC office six weeks ago and have received no response.

April 11, 2010



Sir:

I write this letter to a man I have never met. I have no personal knowledge of you, your strength of character, or your commitment to the Constitution of the United States of America. At the same time, you do not know me either.

I am a graduate of Baylor University (class of ’70); a former Captain in the United States Marine Corps (1969 – 1976); father of four; grandfather of five; small business owner; and employer. I believe in the Creator and that my heaven or hell shall be found in the hearts of those my life has touched.

Your life has touched hundreds of millions including mine. My life has touched a few thousand. I hope through this letter I will have added you to that number.

There is something very wrong with the fact that our Nation is being led by an individual whose qualifications to hold the office of President are objectively in question.

There is something very wrong when the same individual sealed the personal records which will substantively prove or disprove his eligibility for the highest office in the land and has spent significant sums in legal fees to keep this information from public, judicial, or congressional review.

There is something very wrong with the fact that our Justice branch of government refuses effort after effort to cause disclosure of those records. Those refusals declare that we, the citizens of this country do not have “standing” in the matter because, if damage exists, we are all damaged equally.

No one knows better than you that there are times when it takes more courage to live for our Country than to die for it. In your life of service, time and again your courage and sacred honor has been tested in defense of Freedom and our Constitution. Time and again you have prevailed. Another test awaits you.

As the Republican candidate for the office of President of the United States of America and the opponent to the individual in question, you are the one person in this Nation with unquestioned “standing” in this matter. You are the one person who can not be denied Justice for all Americans.

I have every confidence that you are fully knowledgeable of this situation. I and millions of citizens like me are dismayed that it has been allowed to continue without your intervention.

In the name of all patriotic citizens I call upon you to once more enter the breach and defend the Constitution of the United States of America. Call for release and full, public disclosure of all records in question just as you released all of your records when your qualifications were questioned. If he refuses, seek relief through the courts for full discovery and disclosure.

Either he is or he is not. The uncertainty is tearing our Nation apart. What ever the answer is, America deserves the truth.

Semper Fi,

D. Wayne Crook

It is almost done now. It is almost over. Following closely on the heels of the recent US Supreme Court decision handing US Constitutional rights to non-US citizens (Islamic Jihadi Terrorists) the United States Congress has just repealed the 'don't ask, don't tell 'policy which will allow leather and bondage fetishists to serve openly, and practice their proclivities openly, in the Armed Forces of the United States of America. Any attempt by drill sergeants or chief petty officers to tell new recruits to wipe the gay smiles off their faces will be met by lawsuits. Transvestites will be allowed to wear their choice of pants or skirts, mascara and eye shadow, rouge and perfume. Openly gay means openly gay and those thirty-year hardened warrior veterans had better get used to it.
All instruction manuals, training films and regimens will now have to be revised to include the rendering of the limp-wristed salute. Quite acceptable in place of the hearty "Yes, Sir!!!" of days gone by will be the response "Okay, sweetie!" Openly gay is openly gay. Any attempt to enforce conformity to traditional military discipline, to the extent that it in any way inhibits or discriminates against openly gay behavior, will be considered unlawful discrimination, punishable by courts martial or or other remedies under a new and revised Non-Uniform Code of Semi-Military Justice.
Recruitment quotas will now have to be revised so that a certain percentage of homosexuals, sado-masochists and those unsure about their sexual inclinations, as approved by a commission including members of the GLAAD, LGBTQ and NAMBLA organizations, will be granted admission into the fighting forces. Marine Corps Recruitment Centers, banned by Elena Kagan from Harvard University and by Tom Hayden and Jerry Brown from the University of California, will now be set up in gay bars and bath houses all across the land.
Perhaps some may disagree, that it's not the end, that the defense of America will continue as it has for 230 years, that the outrageous examples of possibilities mentioned above are merely the rantings of outdated, close-minded, bigoted flag-wavers. Oh, dear readers, we but barely scratched the surface of the possibilities. But before dismissing the rant, consider this one last item - and this is an actual, under consideration proposition - The US military, the same US military that was unfazed by General George Casey having more concern about the loss of "diversity" than the loss of thirteen warriors at Ft. Hood, Texas, is now ACTIVELY AND EARNESTLY CONSIDERING THE DESIRABILITY OF MAKING COMMENDATORY AWARDS FOR SOMETHING CALLED "BATTLEFIELD RESTRAINT"; Id est, NOT ENGAGING THE ENEMY.
Imagine the long, grey line looking down from the heavens at what is happening to America. Imagine the Washingtons, the Jacksons, the Grants, the TR';s, the Pershings, the Pattons, the Eisenhowers, the Kennedys. Imagine. Imagine there's no country.......it isn't hard to do......

Without your Second Amendment Rights, the others are meaningless. Think about it folks, if the Senate ratifys this there will be a civil war:

Lynn, what does it mean to be openly gay in the military? What do they really want from the us and what can we expect from them. I bet after we say OK, gays can openly serve and sign the paper work....watch the flood gates burst from demands from the gay community. "We want to be allowed to marry and we demand health care for our partners, and what about family housing on the base"? I get the feeling that once we go down this bung hole we will never see the end of unreasonable demands.

I sked both of my Senators to vote against repeal of DADT!

Did you hear where Michelle "misspoke" about Barack Hussein Obama's home country. It is on YouTube under the heading "Michelle Obama admits Kenya is Barrack Hussein Obama's Home Country."

Lynn, I'm a little concerned why Chedwards in making proposals out of his district. In fact this morning I emailed John Carter and asked him why his district is being put upon by an outside congressman. I'm awaiting the judges responce.
God I can wait for the status quo to return so I can get some rest!

Gee, what's wrong with a variety of teaching so that individuals can make up their own minds.

Actually, you and the flaming right wingers won't be satisfied until all schools, public and private, elementary thru college, teach right-wing-only "facts", history and philosophy.

That's the goal of the right wingers. One world, one silly mindset, a planet of irrational right-wing robots walking around like zombies with right wing talk radio earplugs inserted in the appropriate orifices.

The righties tell us that they believe in leaving individuals and families alone, yet, their leaders RUSH back to Washington on a holiday weekend to vote on a law to force Terri Schiavo's family to keep her on life support to satisfy the extremists.

What hypocrisy!

Lynn, I liked your monologue today about “dont ask – dont tell” policy currently being bantered around. I have read several articles that have stated in different ways something to the effect of “House voted to advance the repeal as an amendment to a Defense Department funding bill moving through Congress.” I am confused... what are they “repealing?”

Unless there is something I missed, there wasnt a congressional “dont ask; dont tell” law that was passed – it was a policy that was enacted by Bill Clinton through executive order and upheld by federal Court in five separate occasions and once by supreme court. Is this addendum attached to the Defense Funding bill meant to motivate or intimidate the commander-in-chief to change the executive order? Pres Obama can do this on his own and doesnt need congress to do anything if he wanted to change the policy. I dont get it: is this grandstanding by congressmen or preemptive cover for the president so he can cancel the policy.

Do they (the president or liberal congressmen) realize what this means to cancel the “dont ask – dont tell” policy? I am not a military lawyer but, in my opinion, by rescinding the order, all that happens is that the military is forced to go back to the conditions prior to the order, which was MORE restrictive to homosexuals in the military. In essence, however, the “dont ask – dont tell” policy didnt change much of anything in the military and just made politicians feel good about themselves. The “dont ask - dont tell” policy, whether it is in effect or not, does not and has not changed military judicial code (the Universal Code of Military Justice - UCMJ). Before and during the “dont ask – dont tell” policy situation, it is against military law to demonstrate being a homosexual in the military; nothing really changed with “dont ask – dont tell.”

If congress really wants to change anything, then they would have to go on record to try and change military judicial code; otherwise, nothing really changes. In my opinion, the real question is: will the commander-in-chief, with the backing of the people (indirectly through congressional support), pressure military generals into NOT enforcing military judicial code. On March 25th, was Robert Gates' (SOD) announced new rules mandating that only flag officers (Generals) may initiate discharge proceedings and imposing more stringent rules of evidence to be used during discharge proceedings an indication of what is to come? It is a travesty in my opinion to force military leaders to NOT enforce the law.

I think that neither congress nor Obama has the guts to go on record trying to repeal that portion of military code dealing with homosexuality; rather, they would try to get opinion on their side and force a heavy hand on the military leadership. Otherwise, all the grandstanding by congressmen, the secretary of defense, and the administration is a waste of effort since the President could and can change or rescind the “policy” by himself through executive order the first day in office.

Another good show
Keep up the good work

Hey Lynn, I'm with you 100% on Don't Ask Don't Tell.

Back during World War II, didn't they have blacks also serve in the military at that point? They made special companies for them, segregating the blacks from the whites almost entirely.

So what would they do with the gays? Put them in their own companies together? So I guess we'd have the "Beauty Brigade" or something Haha.

If they put them in with the regular soldiers, and they are open about being gay, they will be beat the hell up, period.

Thanks Lynn.

Lynn, we can appeal to the liberals in congress not to repeal DADT using the following logic....muslim hate homosexuals in general and the thought that they are serving openly in the US services will incite a wave of recruits to radical Islam.
