I originally wrote this back in April, but I held off publishing it hoping maybe the Tea Parties would ignite a spark or maybe just maybe something would come about to wake the American people out of their slumber, but alas it never happened. While I only had this blog a little while, I started out back in 2005 on Hannity's message board, migrated to Little Green Footballs, then started

At the end of the John Wayne movie "The Green Berets", there is a very touching scene where John Wayne stands with a young Vietnamese boy on the flight line as the helicopters come in bringing the Special Forces soldiers in at the completion of their mission. The young boy is waiting for his Peterson, but Peterson won't be coming home. Joh Wayne turns to the young boy and tells him the sacrifice

Recently 3 Georgia National Guardsmen were killed in Afghanistan in a single incident when their HMMV fell victim to an IED. Today they started arriving home for the last time. There are times when my faith in the American people is restored, and it is at times such as this. Too often we get so involved in the political story of the day or latest celebrity news that it seems some of the

The rule of unintended consequences is in full swing in England when it comes to health care. It is important to remain aware that this recent economic crisis is not limited to just the United States, but is a world wide problem. England, just like your local government does when the budget gets tight, has to make cuts. It seems that just like in Atlanta, where the first cuts came in law

According to a report over on the Weekly Standard, FBI agents in Afghanistan are now having to read the Miranda warning to terrorists/combatants/man made disasters makers.For, the Obama Justice Department has quietly ordered FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high value detainees captured and held at U.S. detention facilities in Afghanistan,

Gretchen Carlson is a co host of Fox and Friends, the morning show on Fox News, and her parents have owned a GM dealership for 90 years. That changed recently.

The continuing arrogance of our First Family continues to gall me. We have been regaled with one story after another of how the Obamas' appear to be oblivious to the financial crisis we are facing not only here at home, but on a global scale.Whether it is stories of spending tax payer money for an ill fated photo op flyover of New York City or jetting out to Hollywood on the taxpayers dime to

I was settling down and reading my papers, online of course, and I find this story in our Atlanta Journal Constitution about how our state managed to lure NCR from Ohio. The deal includes $96 million in incentives but the biggest one comes in an incentive they gave the company that to me seems counter intuitive.The company will still be required to take out state taxes on it's employees, but will

Today we commemorate the 65th anniversary of the D Day invasion. The largest sea borne invasion ever which began the liberation of Europe.I have been privileged during my time in the service to meet several of the veterans of that invasion, and there is no way I can comprehend or envision the hell that was wrought that day on the beaches of Normandy. In talking to the veterans of that day they

Georgia's 48th Infantry Brigade Combat Team deployed to Afghanistan last month and they have already suffered their first casualties. When you have National Guard and Army Reserve units deployed into a war zone, when the causalities come they come in bunches for the communities and states from which they come. The three soldiers were killed by what is becoming the weapon of choice by the jihadis,

In light of the upcoming 65th anniversary of the D-Day invasion it seems appropriate that a story like this appears. A couple of local policemen discovered an overgrown cemetery while performing his duties and upon closer inspection found out that several veterans were buried there. Their consciences just wouldn't allow them to ignore the condition of this final resting place of those who had

Now that GM is a wholly owned entity of our federal government and the United Auto Workers (UAW) and will be outsourcing the manufacture of their cars to China, thereby no longer being capable of being considered an American car company, it is time for the hard working, tax paying citizens of this country to vote with their dollars.Lately we haven't had much control over how our tax dollars have

They don't allow the embedding of their videos so click on this link to view a moving video of the local community and members of the Patriot Guard riders who paid tribute to one of their own.WSB also has a slideshow of pictures taken.

The violence against the youth of America in my opinion is one of the most under reported stories occurring in our midst. A while back I wrote about a shooting in Atlanta that claimed the life of a teenager and I posted one the week before that. Last week there wasn't one, but now that Friday is here I am waiting. We have stories from Atlanta of a teenager arrested for the shooting death of a

The Labor Department has released their employment figures for the month of April and it seems to contains some contradictions, but it also masks another point. The unemployment rate climbed to 8.9% while the number of layoffs reported were much lower, 539,000. So how can the unemployment rate rise while the number of people losing their jobs is 100,000 less then what has been reported for the

Georgia governor Sonny Perdue has signed legislation which outlaws the so called sanctuary cities. We do not have any in Georgia to start with but this is a pre-emptive strike. In Georgia we sort of have a spotty record on the pursuit and apprehension of illegal aliens. The county I live in is one of the few who has received training from ICE which allows them to question people they detain as to

Two things I want to point out to my readers. The first is that Edmond Heatley was not an officer. In the military you have the enlisted folks, which consist of the NCO's (Non Commissioned Officer) and the soldiers they lead and the officers, the guys who get the salutes and if they are smart give the missions to the NCO's and sit back and take the credit...or the blame.Heatley split his career

SPC Ryan C King was killed in action in Afghanistan on May 1, 2009. He was assigned to the Special Troops Battalion, 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Infantry Division, Fort Hood, Texas. He is from Dallas, GA which is just up the road from me and his passing is every bit as deserving of attention as that of Dom Deluise or any other celebrity. He joins the ranks of those who have given their today's

Dom Deluise passed away yesterday and I know most folks put up tributes or notices yesterday but circumstances prevented me from doing so. I can't say I really grew up with Dom Deluise but I certainly did see a lot of his movies and shows on tv.

Don't all of y'all wish you had a guy like this running for governor? C'mon admit it, you know you do. Anybody who will answer a question by saying "There is only one candidate who will stand up to the federal government and say get the hell out of our business."

I have been watching this ongoing debate regarding torture for a while now keeping my peace while realizing that those who claim to have such an aversion to employing torture show their outrage. It also shows how clueless they are.Here is a video of Shepard Smith who keeps saying "We are Americans, we don't torture." Really Shep? Ever read any books on our military actions in previous wars? Yes

Recently several members of congress, mostly Democrats, made a trip to Africa to gather information on the situation, which most of us already knew. Granted sometimes it does take getting on the ground to get a feel for what is happening but what is astounding is the findings of the group, and in particular my congress critter David Scott (GA-13.Scott's journey brought him through Burkina Faso,

Here in Atlanta we have a FM rock radio station 100.5 which is hosted in the mornings by a couple guys known as the Regular Guys. Well now it looks like one of them is flirting with the idea of entering the US Senate race here in Georgia on the Libertarian ticket to challenge Johnny "Shamesty" Isakson.One of the speakers was Eric Von Haessler of Rock 100.5 FM’s “The Regular Guys,” who continued

Raising the tax on beer that is. Just like in this country where you have a government who claims to be so concerned about the plight of the common person, they always manage to tax the very things that are considered comfort items for the working folks.Here in America the largest increase in taxes for tobacco just went into effect, to fund the illogical SCHIP program which has been expanded to

I have no doubt there is some sort of back door deal here that is designed to put money into Murtha's pocket as well as Neil Abercrombie's (D-HI).U.S. lawmakers are puzzled by a Pentagon estimate that it would cost $7 billion extra to split a potential $35 billion

Much has been said recently about this country's energy policy and the need to get off our dependence of foreign oil. Not mentioned among those solutions is the ability to drill for our own oil on our own land and offshore, but instead the need to pursue all sorts of alternative energy sources.

Frequent readers of this blog know that I have written about Rep Tom Price (GA-6) several times. He has been stalwart in his criticism of not only the current administration but also of the Bush administration when he felt it was warranted. He is the current head of the Republican Study Committee in the House.And now he is drawing the attention of the press, which means they definitely view him

It's early on a Sunday morning and since I got nothing better to do so why not write down some thoughts since I have the platform to do it.A lot of folks have been asking what does the movement that was started with the recent Tea Party rallies on April 15th go to now. There are already plans in the works for another set of rallies to take place on 4th of July. It is my sincere hope that the next

I have written a lot on this blog over the last couple of months about the efforts of Obama's Energy and Environmental team to take over a huge section of our economy and in essence our lives. Combine the efforts of his energy secretary, EPA chief, and his environmental czar with the looming prospect of the takeover of the healthcare sector and our economy will never recover.

The bitch in this case is Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano.

I arrived around 6 PM at the Atlanta Tea Party and there was already a crowd of about a thousand people and this just grew from there. By the time Hannity went on air he said there were 15 thousand. I don't doubt, because of the location there were a lot people jammed into a small space. If you wanted to raise both arms at the same time it was impossible. By the time Hannity went on air I was

Today is the day for the Tax Day Tea Parties all across the nation. I will be at the one in Atlanta this afternoon after work. Our rally is scheduled to officially go from 7 PM EST until 10 PM, mostly to accommodate the live coverage on the Sean Hannity show on Fox News but we will also have John Rich from the country group Big & Rich performing and no doubt some others wishing to tag along on

The Atlantic and National Journal conducted a survey of what it terms prominent members of the national news media. The results of the survey were predictable.The media insiders were also asked about coverage of President Obama. Of 45 respondents, 71 percent say it has been “about right,” 22 percent say it’s been “too easy” and 7 percent say it has been “too tough.”But now look at who they

That is the judgement of the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Once again the liberal feel good policies are affecting the very people they claim to be most concerned about. We all know about the tobacco tax that is hitting folks now to pay for the SCHIP expansion to include folks who are neither children nor needy. Now the CBO has released a report that shows the increased use of ethanol in
