Duncan Hunter Debate Watching Parties

417908-663053-thumbnail.jpg Spark It Up, and Nova Town Hall are hosting the the first Republican Debate Parties on May 3rd.  Contact them and sign up.  Also see here.

See the Conservative Cajun for a great analysis on the 'Frontrunners' and Duncan.

Meanwhile Duncan (who has a pair) Hunter, calls on Harry (Traitor) Reid to Resign! an excerpt via Spark It Up!:

"Currently, there are about 146,000 U.S. troops in Iraq. When the reinforcement operation is at full strength, this number will stand at approximately 157,000. How can anyone, including a United States Senator, possibly declare as a failure a reinforcement operation that is less than fifty percent complete?"

"my highest obligation is, like yours, owed to our forces in uniform, especially during this time of war."

"Given your position of leadership within the United States Government, I find your pronouncement of failure irresponsible and disserving to America's armed forces. In light of the fact that this statement has both been used by our adversaries and has exhibited a marked lack of leadership to U.S. troops, I call on you to resign your leadership position," concluded Hunter. "It must come as a shock to Al Qaeda leaders to have an aide come into their safe house and tell them that Senator Reid has declared that, in fact, they are winning and the war is lost," Hunter said. "I think it's highly irresponsible for the leader of the U.S. Senate to have said that and, just speaking for myself as the ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee, I think that the leader of the Senate should step down from that position."

What are the MSM and Murtha to do?  An Exerpt:

In a nutshell, the case exploded when an intelligence officer dropped a bombshell on prosecutors during a pre-hearing interview when he revealed the existence of exculpatory evidence that appears to have been obtained by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) and withheld from the prosecutors.

Surplus, Surplus Everywhere! But No Troopers...

cops_jpeg.jpg For those of you who do not live in the 24th Senatorial District you may not be aware that it contains a very strategic Crossroads in our Commonwealth. Interstates I-81 and I-64 intersect here and it is a major conduit for illegal aliens & other criminals smuggling drugs such as Methamphetamines, Cocaine and Marijuana through out our region and to all points north, east and west.

The counties of Augusta, Rockingham and Nelson have had more than their share of these drug busts, and numerous Methamphetamine labs have been busted, and this is truly a huge regional problem. Del. Ben Cline has been trying to address this issue for four years running in the General Assembly by going down 'hat in hand' to get extra funding for over time for our State Troopers to help stem the tide of this trafficking and to improve highway safety along I-81.
The main problem it seems is that the 'Priority' of Public Safety has not been addressed, because per capita Augusta County alone is authorized 19 State Troopers, and the General Assembly only funds 14! This is truly outrageous, especially since the Commonwealth has been in surplus now for 3 years running. Unfortunately, we have not had the Leadership from our Senator Hanger to address this growing crisis, instead he has found a way to provide in-state tuition to illegal aliens!

64&81.jpg Having those extra five troopers would eliminate the need to over work the ones we have, because obviously they would be rotated into the current patrols! These aren't problems that manifest themselves overnight, they are problems that display quite clearly a lack of Pro-active Leadership! It's time for a change in the 24th District, we need Scott Sayre as our Senator, who will make Public Safety a priority in the 24th District, and push to get us our Troopers!

Blue Angel Falls To Earth!

417908-379422-thumbnail.jpg This sad news has come to pass... While performing at an air show before 100,00 spectators at  Beaufort Naval Air Station in South Carolina, a Blue Angel Pilot has fallen to earth and perished!  I have always loved seeing the Blue Angels perform.  The first show I remembered as a small child was at Patauxant Naval Air Station in Maryland.  The Blue Angels were then flying the old, venerable F-4 Flying Phantoms.

These aviators thrill crowds with starburst formations, low level passes, and my favorite, a low level pass with one aircraft in normal flight,while one is inverted!  Don't try that one at Home!  May God Bless our Airman!  Win The War!

My Prayers go out to this aviators family and friends.... GO NAVY! (and Marines!)
