The latest from The Zelman Partisans. Resolve. What part does it play in your life? Not just in your life personally, but if the leaders of your county, state and country do not have resolve, it will affect you. Believe it.
And, I’ll even throw in a bonus video for ya’ll. This is resolve, and I think this lady is wonderful! Might want to hear her out, if you aren’t familiar with the koran, you might learn a thing or two.
The Police are just minutes away, just minutes away. How long have we been told by people control via gun control politicians and advocates that firearms owned by private citizen/subjects make U.S. “less civilized” less “safe” as a country? Read More.
I mean seriously? Call the Police, they will come and “save” you? Gonzales vs. Castle Rock and Warren vs. DC say, nope they don’t have to. But what if your Police are just as vulnerable as you are?
Not content to just weigh in on American Politics, I have decided to foray into Israeli Politics. Not claiming to be an expert, but I do love learning about the topic. It’s over at The Zelman Partisans, and there are a couple of really good videos to go along with it. You should watch them both, they are Crackerjacks!
I know, I know, I’m still trying to get time to do something I want to write about for my blog. But I did get something up at The Zelman Partisans about our Law Enforcement Community, The Thin Blue Line.
I don’t think the animosity being fomented by the obama regime between LEO and the community is an accident any more than many of his other actions.
I know, I know, I keep saying I’m going to get something up just for Sybil, but she has had a lot of balls in the air to juggle lately. This would work better if she actually KNEW HOW to juggle gracefully at all. But, it IS the Maccabee time of the year. And if you are a Christian and think that Hanukkah is just a “Jewish thing” or the Jewish version of Christmas you are sorely mistaken. Now, more than ever Christians need to know about Hanukkah, they need to know the lessons it gives, and I think we should be celebrating it as well. I LOVE the Maccabees.
So, I’m going to send you over to the Zelman Partisans to read the column on the Maccabees. To entice you to do so I will post a picture of my most handsome ginger cat Maccabee hy”d. I still miss this handsome boy, every single day. He was really something.
Sorry folks! Life has been a bit, hectic shall we say. I’ve been wanting to do a column for both TZP and Sybil. I got TZP’s done early this morning, so hopefully can get one for myself later today. But for now, this one is about sort of Gov. Jay Nixon and Ferguson.
The lesser of the Nixons in my mind right now is Jay Nixon, Missouri’s non-Governor. We’ll just start this post out with a moment of levity. Listening to nixon usually just makes me want to rinse out my ears with hydrogen peroxide. But this sound clip from the Missouri Torch is just one of those things that make you want to hit your head against a wall. This twit is a non-Governor of the state of Missouri because of the people (and their out of town guests) like the residents of Ferguson, which is the topic of the sound clip interview. For goodness sake, WHY can’t we have somebody like Gov. Bobby Jindal? Oh wait, I know the answer to that. So here’s obama’s mini-me without a teleprompter.
Now, let’s go to the greater of the two Nixons. The late President Richard Nixon. Viet Nam was an unpopular war. It was not lost on the battlefield, it was lost in political deals. I remember how the “in” thing was to protest the war. I remember my Mom telling me about one of my sisters sitting in the parlor with a couple of her friends, the boys were not old enough to be drafted, but they were saying if they were, they would dodge the draft and go to Canada. My Dad, who had been in the Navy was sitting in the dining room hearing every word. It took all Mom could to keep him from going in there and throwing the bums out. The scum want all the benefits of freedom, with none of the effort, and yes, I do happen to know one of them is a proud obama voter.
But back to President Nixon. There is the Watergate scandal, he used the IRS to target political opponents, spied on his enemies and had an enemies list. The press went after him with a vengence. Reporters dug and went after the truth, and the truth was blared on the nightly news. Let’s compare that with the current piece of trash in the White House now. He doesn’t just target political opponents with the IRS, he targets whole groups of people in the nation, he doesn’t just spy on political opponents he spys on law abiding citizens. He has created more racial strife with his inserting himself in numerous situations and has his racist attorney general as his firestarter. And most likely one of them sent the “out of town visitors”, those fomenters of violent protest to Ferguson MO. Which is what prompted the above sound clip. The kind of soldier obama likes is the traitor john kerry. But hey, john kerry always has a solution, right?
Ok, enough with the levity.
The media now, rather that reporting what is going on, follows the Walter Cronkite (I know this is an opinion piece, but it lays it out well) method of shaping public opinion by their “reports” rather than actually reporting the news. When an actual reporter tries to do that, they are spied upon. Read up on Sharyl Atkisson, amazing woman. Even her own network SeeBS, deep sixed her stories that could hurt obama. So even though obama has done far worse than President Nixon ever did, the media is now fine with it, and covers it up FOR him. In the story below, it talks about something amazing President Nixon did, besides helping Golda Meir and possibly saving Israel. While the current occupant of the White House has people like Johnathan Gruber JayZ, Beyonce and others of their ilk, President Nixon hosted the largest dinner EVER at the White House for the returned P.O.W.s of Viet Nam. There were celebrities there like John Wayne, Sammy Davis Jr. and Bob Hope, people who loved America, to honor those who had served America. Do I think President Nixon was the greatest President ever? No, but he did some amazing things, things he should and deserves to be remembered for. If he were a communist alinsky-ite, he would be.
Life has been a little “cray-cray” lately. Between family excitement and getting to cover a few extra shifts at my “real job”, I’ve not had much time to write. And I really, really hate that! It’s taken me since Monday to get to finish this column I’ve wanted to do for The Zelman Partisans since last week. Since before the horrific attack at the Har Nof Synagogue. My heart is just broken over the massacre.
My team mate Y.B. Ben Avraham did an excellent column on the massacre at Har Nof, you can read it here
My latest is “Follow The Leader“. It’s loooong, so grab a big cup of coffee. There are a lot of links in it, so you can check out what I’ve stated. The one with Yehuda Glick getting arrested with his goat is pretty funny. The one about 8th graders in California decideding the Holocaust was a hoax for political and financial gain is sickening, as is the information about what common core is bringing.
I never served in the armed forces. My Dad did, he was in the Navy, as was Uncle Jerry. I considered joining the Navy once when I got a recruiting letter from them. Life wasn’t going great at the time. I was living on my own, doing ok financially, had a great dog, but beyond that not so much. I talked to my Dad about joining the Navy, it would have been in a medical capcity since that’s what my training was. Dad was really, really, really against it. “Dad, it’s only for four years, it could be a really good thing for me, look at this letter!” Dad: “Um, what are you going to do with Smokey?” Me: “Well, can’t you keep her for four years? ” Dad: “No, she’d probably die before that. You wanted to get her, you got her. You took on that responsibility.” Looking back I can’t believe I ever even considered abandoning my “fur child”. Which gives you a clue how bad things were. In retrospect, maybe Dad just knew how really lousy I am at taking senseless orders. Stuff that makes sense? Or things I can clarify if I don’t understand? Ok, I can work with that. Senseless BS, not so much. One of my friends said one time I had the lowest BS tolerance of anyone she had ever met. I said “thank you”. I thought she meant it as a compliment. I mean, how else could you take it?
As I think about the men and women who have served our country in uniform, I am in awe and gratitude. They put their personal lives on hold, and in danger to serve for a period of time. Some make careers of it, I respect and admire them. I am such a “rut” or “routine” person. I can’t imagine being told “you’re moving to_____________”. Or many of the other sacrifices they make. And this is before you consider the obama VA scandal. It IS a scandal that these men and women that suited up and showed up when our country asked them are handed over to waiting lists to be on waiting lists and those that did this suffer no consequences because the titular “Commander in Chief” doesn’t like the military and does pretty much everything he can to destroy their morale and the military itself. It’s almost as shameful to the “welcome” the warriors came home to from the Viet Nam war. As I understand it, we never “lost” the war on the battlefield, we lost it because of politicians. People like the vile liar John Kerry should be spat upon, not made Secretary of State. I was a young girl when Viet Nam ended. I was one of those that wore one of the POW bracelets. Mine was Captain James Elzinga I believe, though the bracelet is long gone now. I kept it for many years, praying for him each night. How those warriors were treated when they came home, I think was the result of media manipulation. How the heck did people buy into it? To treat soliders that way?
When there was a draft? People were jerked out of their lives and thrust into the hell known as war. I don’t care if the war was “justified” or not. I really don’t. The people in our military have showed up, suited up and fought. They didn’t ask, well is this ok? Will it increase the carbon footprint? What about the forest? Will Hollyweird make a movie? No, they did what they were sent to do, more effectively before barry changed the rules of engagment to favor the enemy though.
I don’t like wars, I don’t want wars. But some things ARE worth fighting for.
Nothing is free. Freedom isn’t free, and the cost to the lives of those serving in the armed forces wasn’t free either. I was told by a wise man, soldiers don’t fight because of what’s in front of them, they fight for what’s behind them. Meaning hearth & home, families and a way of life.
I know that there is much I do not understand about the military, I know that I don’t have great insight into what it was to be in the military, nor what it is to be the spouse of someone serving in the military. I can only speculate, talk to people and read to try to understand. I do those things when I get the chance. I’m sure there will be wars until Jesus returns, but I would really like to see the preventable ones, like the current brewing un-civil war in Ferguson, prevented. I think this can be doing by partly being informed, and just have some morals! Don’t vote for someone who obviously hates the country he wants to “rule” cause he’s going to give you a free phone and free “stuff”.
So, today is the 8th of November. I have some things for you.
This link was posted by one of my team mates, the incredible Nicki Kenyon on the cost of war in the lives of some of the Marines after they came home. They paid a fiercesome price for US.
The Zelman Partisans has had their first story written about them! I felt so very honored to be allowed to speak on behalf of the group. It’s what I had been hired to do at the late JPFO hy”d. So I’m sure you can imagine the satisfaction I gained from being allowed to tell the world that the spirit of Aaron’s fight is still going to be carried on by The Zelman Partisans.
Lee was a fantastic interviewer, and seems like a very nice guy. He gave the group a great write up! You can read the whole thing here.
If you are on Twitter or Facebook, please consider posting the link to the story on your page or send out a tweet on it.
Yes, I really do feel the hand of G-d has been on this group since it’s beginning. I ask your prayers for us as we continue to grow the readership of our blog, and start to become an actual group.
