This week our president and secretary of defense — correct that to manager of appeasement — surrendered the military strength of the United States. This week Obama and Hagel told the enemies of liberty and freedom that it is open season. These two mental leprechauns have obviously never read the book by Niccolo Machiavelli, “The […]
There can be no debate that the Obama administration has a disdain for our military and its veterans. Now it seems we’ll no longer see Obama attend VFW and American Legion conferences — not that anyone will miss him. Remember the empty promises about easing the veterans’ claims backlog? As a matter of fact, when […]
Early this morning I received an email from Mrs. Annie Shyne, a former constituent, whose son Nicholas received a nomination from our congressional office to the US Naval Academy where he is now a plebe. She was distressed over the intentions of Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, former US Army Soldier, to decimate our military […]
The prevailing theme for this week is liberty. A lot of attention is being focused towards the events in Ukraine. However, just south of us here in South Florida there is another example, Venezuela. In Venezuela we see what always happens when socialism takes root, as described so aptly by Margaret Thatcher, “The problem with […]
Interesting how just one word in a news headline reveals the agenda of the media. This morning, the Washington Post reported an AP story “Judge: Spying on NJ Muslims by NYPD was legal.” Someone once asked me about “racial profiling” of Muslims. I responded that the issue was not “profiling” which is the PC word liberal progressives […]
As we mentioned previously, black Conservatives receive no quarter, and here is the latest installment. Black Supreme Court Justice, Clarence Thomas, and his wife Virginia Thomas were recently attacked by Alabama Democrat State Representative Alvin Holmes for having a white wife. According to the Washington Times, ” While on the floor of the Alabama House of […]
If I’m not mistaken, the first commandment goes something like this, “I am the Lord your God, thou shalt have no other gods before me.” It’s worked pretty well for the last few thousand years, but apparently a certain college professor at Florida A&M University (doggone, why is it always Florida?) has elevated President Barack […]
As I look back on this past week, I have to summarize it in one word: crisis. Domestically we face a constitutional crisis with a president who doesn’t believe he must adhere to our fundamental system of governance. If you have some time, take a read through or refresh yourself on the “Spirit of the […]
In what has to be a true miracle, Army 1LT Michael Behenna has won parole. Apparently he was notified that his clemency request was denied but the parole request was granted. Michael was serving a 15-year sentence for unpremeditated murder of a known terrorist in Iraq. His trial and sentencing had created a firestorm and […]
As we wind down operations in Afghanistan the question is, “did we make any difference?” Sure, Osama bin Laden is dead — then again so is Saddam Hussein and his sons Uday and Qusay, but al-Qaida is in control of western Iraq’s al-Anbar province. During my time in Iraq and Afghanistan, I remember the most […]
Two weeks ago we had the State of the Union. This past week, we see Obama’s state of confusion. I mean really, do they actually believe the American people are imbeciles? One minute we’re told President Obama is pivoting towards creating jobs and will use his pen and phone to create opportunity for the American […]
American Dream Event October 18th, 2013 5 Star Veteran’s Center Jacksonville FL Lt. Col. Allen West spoke at an event the Foundation held at the 5 Star Veteran’s Center in Jacksonville FL to a full house. Veterans of several wars filled the room along with Veterans cause supporters to meet and greet Lt. Col. West […]
This week I’m in Washington DC and maybe you didn’t hear about it, but there was an earthquake here yesterday. It wasn’t a physical disaster but a political one and the epicenter was the White House. Yesterday the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office released a report stating that Obamacare will cause some 2 million Americans to […]
I think it might have been George Santayana who quipped, “those who fail to learn from history are doomed to hear this quote over and over again.” And so here we are as the International Forces Commander in Afghanistan, Marine Corps General Joseph F. Dunford Jr. meets with President Obama to propose his plan for […]
February is Black History Month and today I am attending the Republican National Committee “Black Republican Trailblazers” luncheon at The Howard Theater in Washington DC. I am proud not just this month, but every month of the accomplishments and achievements black Americans have contributed to these United States. My own story is one connected to […]
