I Want To Say Thank You To Our Vietnam Veterans!

39 Years ago, on this date, March 30th 1973 the final troops were withdrawn from Saigon, leading to it's disastrous fall.  I was in a young teenager glued to the evening news watching the reports.  It wasn't like today with 24 hour feeds.  I cried.  I cried for a lost war, for 58,000 lost American lives, for the returning military to a nation that changed and wanted no part of them anymore after demanding they give their all and more.  I cried for the lost stature of the United States in the eyes of our enemies and the future that faced those who we abandoned in Asia.  

Our  military men and women were returning home silently and disappearing into the cracks of society, while others fell completely into oblivion in medical facilities or homeless, forgotten.  There were no homecoming parades.  Government for decades denied Agent Orange syndrome and vets were dying without proper treatment or compensation.  Those that wore their uniforms home were spat upon and called baby killers, so many took their uniforms off, grew their hair long and tried to forget a failed war, indifferent society and an incompetent government.


Some veterans of previous conflicts called the returning vets cry babies and hypochondriacs.  PTSD was not even recognized as was the cancers and other illnesses caused by Agent Orange which was completely denied and criticized.  No parades, no media coverage honoring the heroes, no one to say thank you!  Eleven years of a war and this nation tried to forget and ignore.

Yesterday, by Executive Proclamation, President Barack Obama  declared March 29th Vietnam Veterans Day.  Finally, this nation recognizes these veterans who were either drafted or volunteered to defend the interests of these United States of America.  Finally this nation is saying THANK YOU! Thank You  and God Bless each and every one of you, this nation owes you a debt that can never be repaid!

Man Up America with Shane Hazel 03/30 by Southern Sense | Blog Talk Radio

Our men and women of the military have sacrificed so much for our liberties and security, especially those of the United States Marine Corp.  It is only right that our politicians, including the candidates answer to them for their actions and policies that threaten these liberties and our security, while placing them in harms way to further their careers.  Shane T. Hazel is a former combat Marine who has posted a video on You Tube called "Man Up America".  He challenges all of the 2012 Presidential Candidates to attend a Town Hall that he offers to moderate and to be populated by former Marines.

Will any of the candidates take him up on his offer?   Will the video go viral?  Will President Obama answer and attend?  Maybe we will have an answer by Friday when this shows will air live!

SC TEA PArty Convention - Part 1

Last night my husband and I drove 3 1/2 grueling hours up to Myrtle Beach, SC for the TEA Party convention, that is a prelude to the SC GOP Presidential Debate and the SC GOP Primary.  I'm glad we did, because events started early.  Later, I will write about the debacle of the hotel rooms and amenities.  For now, I'll illuminate you on some of the highlights.

It was great fun today to connect with old friends and meet new ones, who are like minded conservatives.  I was amazed at the fervor of many who were former Herman Cain devotees and now stanch Ron Paul lovers  Ron Paul's stance on foreign affairs is still a major concern for me.  To allow Iran succeed in getting nuclear weapons is irresponsible.  Remember back to the FOX debate, when Paul stated "Why not, why shouldn't they have them."  Another area, I discussed with a member was Ron Paul's alleged racist publications from 20 years ago.  The response, oh, it was 20 years ago, only a few lines and even the head of the NAACP supports him.  Hmm, leopards do not change their stripes and bigots rarely have change of hearts without a radical epiphany, and I don't know of any life changing events that have happened in his life to say he has had one.  Next, it was not only a few lines, it was in several publicans of which I was able to obtain some copies of the entries.  Ron Paul was listed as editor and publisher and considering the type of publication and small circulation, I fail to understand how he could not have known of the passages.  As recently as the 1990 to 1996, he did not deny the items, nor dispute their intent.  Lastly, just how much do you trust the motivations of the Head of the NAACP?  Who would better benefit the rewards of an Obama re-election?

The SC Congressional contingent was fantastic and encouraging in the change that voters were able to effect in the last election cycle.  However, sadly, SC could not admit to having as a native son, was the charismatic speaker and Raging Elephants creator, Reverend Apostle Claver.  He had the house ROCKIN' with No Compromise and No Surrender, riling the crowd into an enthusiastic true bible belt rally!  Unfortunately, the audience was handed a humongous let down with the follow-up speaker, Million or Billionare Michael George of "Stay Strong America".  Not only was Mr. George a monotone and droning speaker, where he thought he would get a positive and rousing response from the TEA Party activist, he fell flat on his face.

Mr. George had made the mistake of breaking the taboo of TEA Party activist going into a primary of criticizing some candidates over their preference and imploring the TEA Parties to support and vote for his love child, Newt Gingrich.  The purpose of this convention was to create working relationships between the various groups and to offer tools for our upcoming battle to reclaim the Senate and White House.  After ripping Mitt Romney and Rick Santorium, he proceeded to preen over Speaker Gingrich.  Grumbles rippled through the crowd and some stated to their immediate neighbors that he should get off the stage.  Two of my friends openly challenged his motives and positions of Speaker Gingrich versus those of Governor Romney.  The crowd began to get more heated and, well, I lite the fuse by loudly filling the room with my sweet dulcet voice, and directing "No one tells the TEA Parties who to vote for, not today not ever.  No one tells us what to do!" to Mr. George.


Suddenly the media scramble to our corner of the room and camera flashed.  Most of the shots will probably hit the cutting room floor, but the rallying calls that followed my out burst was refreshing and has let everyone know, that although the majority of us are Republicans, we are not servants of, nor the arm of the Republican Party, nor can any candidate truly call themselves a TEA Party Candidate.


Final note, my big mouth didn't end there.  Oh no! 

OK - I can't keep my Big Mouth Shut - Part 1A - The SC TEA Party Convention did have OWS protestors - The Occupy Protesters were 2 women on the beach, 2 people for "GREEN" (Whatever that means), trying to sneak into the hotel and one of the 99% across the street from the entrance.

Yes, I couldn't resist - poor guy didn't stand a chance (by the way, he disappeared afterwards).  Coming back from lunch he stood all alone with his hand written sign "Down With The 1%, I'm With The 99%"  I called out to him - "How's that working out for you? You're the 1% standing out here & we're the 99% in there?" Said, I couldn't resist! :O

Stay tuned & I hope to give you more updated tomorrow!
