Vets Must Stay Engaged
A reminder for veterans; our oath is to the Constitution of this great country, so although we may be too "old" to fight the current war on terror, we can still get into the battle for the soul of America now going on. Never has our country been so polarized, drowned in mis-information, and battling for its soul. We must be a part of this fight. The current health care debate is based on radical ideology, and court challenges based on our constitution are coming if the current bill is passed. Veterans can step up and inform those around us of the danger from within. This is not about a possible conspiracy theory, it is fact! We have political leaders who want to transform our republic in a new and dangerous direction. If we were attacked again, as we were on 911, citizens would rise up as one to defend our country; today, we are being attacked from within and it requires the same effort on the part of veterans and citizens to defend our nation. Those of us who served have a love and dedication to America that only we understand. We must get involved, be informed, stay engaged!

A CRITICAL VOTE IN MASSACHUSETTS
Do the voters in Massachusetts and America really want a "one party system"? History has recorded one party systems in the Soviet Union, Iraq, Cuba, China, and others; a one party system removes the people's will from the affairs of a nation. The campaign in Massachusetts is about the one party system which America is currently expiencing; a majority of democrats in both houses and the White house, and a desire to maintain a 60 vote margin in the senate which prevents discussion and compromise from the Democratic process designed by our founders. Currently, America's one party government has: increased the national debt to historic proportions, taken over private companies, proposed national health care (behind closed doors), and interrupted the natural forces of our economy in favor of more government control. In foreign policy, the War on Terror has slowed with attempts to appease our enemies with talk and promises, and our troops have been burdened with new rules of engagement which hamper their ability to defeat the enemy. We seem to be repeating the mistakes of the past and disregarding the lessons of history. America must return to a healthy two party system which represents all of our people, and reject one party control. Our nation was founded on majority rule and insuring the rights and voices of the minority. We must stop the current abuses of the one party system. It can begin in Massachusetts this year; you can help by contacting people and family you know in Massachusetts and encourage them to reject one party rule in America by their vote for Scott Brown. It is not too late to take our country back!

Throw Them All Out
Veterans have millions of votes, we have fought for this nation, bled and died for it. We have a right and mission to care for America. What is happening inside our country is a call to action, we are losing our rights, we are seeing the Constitution trampled on by our government. It may be time to begin to clean house in 2010; elect those that love America, believe in a strong military and "winning" wars that we fight, and demand individual rights be upheld. Together Veterans can make a difference, it is our mission. Let our politicians know they serve at the pleasure of the people, and can be "thrown out".

Don't Tread on Me
During the revolutionary war, one of the many flags had the phrase "don't tread on me". It was a reminder of the individual rights that were being taken away by the British, and led to the conflict that gave birth to our great nation. Recently watching the film "John Adams", based on David McCullough's book on the beginning of America, it was became evident that we are experiencing a similar situation now with the spread of our own government and the taking away of individual rights. We are not fighting a foreign power, but we are in a peaceful revolution to combat those who would take away our individual rights, and create a society where the government is the provider; it stamps out initiative, degrades the individual, and will take us down a path to socialism or worse. Veterans swore an oath to uphold the constitution and defend this nation against enemies foreign and domestic. We have to speak up and be active in the political process; our mission is to defend our republic. There is a threat, and it must be stopped!

America Need Action
This blog has the mission of reminding veterans of their commitment to America, and has focused on the recent election and the war on terror. The war continues, we now have a President and Congress that have started the disarming process once again. This is a carbon copy of the years of President Carter. Most of us understand that expending dollars and resources each day in Iraq and Afghanistan depletes supplies; it is a time to increase the defense budget, not cut it. We are headed down a road that we have traveled before, veterans can help wake up our citizens to the threat. It seems that health care is the current hot button with Americans, and as veterans we should participate in that debate; however, our citizens must also awake and understand that unilateral reduction of our armed forces has never and will never work in a time of conflict. As Veterans we must speak out a warning to our citizens ; don't pass on this call to mission, enter the battle.

TIME TO STEP UP
Veterans have a special responsibility to our citizens, we all took a oath to protect and defend our constitution. There is proof of threats to our freedoms and rights as set forth by our founders. We need to consider the immigration issues, the financial burden being put on us and children against the people's wishes, and how we are conducting the war on terror. Our congress is not listening to the people; as veterans we need to voice our concerns and support the people. Play this video and decide how you will be involved.

100 Days of Change - Still a Mission
100 days of the new administration has shown us a picture of a new direction for our nation. It calls us to continue our mission to defend America in all arenas. There is evidence of a policy of appeasement and the reduction of our defense while we remain at war. There is government intervention in the busines and private lives of our citizens, it bears watching and preparing now for 2012.
