As I sit here reading all the america bashing going on in the name of "dissent" I cannot help but remember when I dissented. When I came home from vietnam in 1966 the war protesters were out in full force.. The media was already portraying us as monsters of some kind. I could not get a job when on my resume was printed "marine corps" combat vet, So I felt betrayed. So my dissent was to NOT stand for the national anthem, as I refused to honor my flag and country, because I ...

Who are these blatant un-American people? Where do they live? How do they live? While enjoying all the great freedoms and bounty of America they sneak around behind the scenes and try to subvert, destroy and put up roadblocks to free thinking Americans. I have seen some sit and cheer the death and destruction of American troops, then make comments how the families suffer. I have seen a few wishes for American to lose this war on terror, just so they can prove a point and mount their...

From "Another Helmsman:" "For years, my favorite literature was Homer: 'The Odyssey' because all life is a journey; 'The Iliad' because all life is a battle. Now I ask myself: But need life be as Homer seems to have seen it? Why should I be constantly journeying, running away from myself? Constantly battling myself and resisting this life that God has granted me? Why not relax and let Someone who is far more capable than I do the steering and planning?" c. 1973, Came to Believe, p...

Try to live by this, as I try also./ Don't too much time with minor people. If there are people in your life that continually disappoint you, break promises, stomp on your dreams, too judgmental, have different values and don't have your back during difficult times...that is not a friend. This is someone that you can live without... Define what you think a friend should be.. To have a friend, be a friend. Sometimes in life as you grow, your friends will either grow or go. ...

Young..... so very young.. Anger in his eyes..... I lean over lieing to my friend... Telling him no... you won't die.... His eyes call me liar... I weep and howl... My friend is gone. still a child in my dreams... I grow old.. wondering why... not me. Comming my friend.... soon.... lets the gates know an old warrior is comming...

Sweat........ mingled with..... stench Is that fear I smell.... Blood pumps.... senses highten..muscles harden Heart roars...... eyes go black...reptilian Is that fear I smell? Fist tighten.........body raises up.. light.. airy. ready.. The fear I smell is mine...

For those of us who have spouses in high positions, we get to hear about day-to-day events about “the workplace” Since our spouses are our most trusted advisors, does what the” none boss “{the spouse} have any impact on someone’s job? It’s my experience that if a spouse of a boss just detests a particular individual there job is in jeopardy. I know my wife seeks counsel from me time to time about someone at her job, sometimes I have counseled get rid of them, defend them, or no comme...

Where do I start, ok at the beginning? First notice I said a few, not all, not most, and a few. Since January 1st this year, I have had liberals come into my house {blog} and call me, Sick bastard, mean, asshole, bigot, religious zealot, I have had DEATH wished on me, I have been told my soul should rot in hell for all eternity. I have been disrespected over and over in my HOUSE, had plagues called on my head, called a manwhore, man pig, male ho, evil, rotten, have had my manhood cal...

Seems like some people here in Joe user land think they are perfect, Jesus like if I may venture a guess. This trait is not a moderate trait; it seems to run rampant AMONG SOME OF THE LIBERALS HERE THOUGH. I can see I am wrong sometimes {my flames with DABE} correct it and move on. I can see I was wrong about the spaying and neutering post and eliminated it. I hope to never be so perfect in my own eyes or heart that I think I never mis-step, say something bad or make mistakes. ...

From my street days I offer this "nuttin personal iz jus bidness" said with my best East Harlem accent> I have no ill will nor do I think you are somehow less than me because you espouse liberal politics. There is just one person that blogs here that has raised my bile to the point of intense dislike. The Satan spawn knows who she is; it needs not be printed here. When I blast away at your stances on political points it’s really not personal, It’s just me expressing an opposing view. ...

President Bush is going to Europe, to mend fences, well fellow American I would rather forge an alliance with Red China, at least you know where the red chinesse stand. France never has been an allie of America, france is now a third rate country, with the morals of an alley cat. Germany is just another third rate country with delusions of grandeur, longing for the days of Adolph, when the world paid attention to them. Russia is going back to its old ways, putin is slowly taking con...

What arrogance, what utter conceit. To proclaim that you even begin to understand who I am or how my mind works is absurd. I am not even sure if I know the entire me, but a couple post and low and behold some morons say “I know exactly what and who you are” to say the least I am amazed by the insight and wisdom of these self proclaimed geniuses, to be able to “know” everything about me from a couple post. Wow! These AD HOMINIM, attacks filled with VITROLIC HYPERBOLE, just crack me u...

More Leftwing Definitions Ad hominim, means I just found a new word and must use it as much as possible to try and fool people into thinking I am intelligent. Vitriolic. Means you disagreed with me, no matter how logical or well stated, it burns like acid on my small closed-minded brain. Hyperbole means you have stated to many facts well put together and now I have to run to the far lefty rantionary to use another meaningless word to try and demean you. Fair and balanced means YO...

While I adore women, women of all kinds and body types, big boobs,. little ones, small women amazon women {ok get the point?} In the last 20 or so years we have seen the emergence of women as warrior babes, while I love looking at a gorgeous women in tight slinky pelts and such, I DO NOT want one watching my back in times of war, It was hard enough for a man to handle a sword let alone some skinny babe with wrists as think as a small chicken bone, swinging to to and fro. While I do not dou...
