The Jeffers Family would like to send its love and heartfelt thanks to all our wonderful veterans, past and present, who have willingly served and sacrificed to bring liberty not only to this great nation, but also to freedom-loving peoples across the world.
Our hearts are especially full for those and their families “who gave the last full measure.” May the Lord bring you a peace and pride that comes from selfless service and sacrifice.
Okay, so vacation is over and I’m ready to spend the next 39 days doing the political equivalent of battle royale. As my friend JB Williams describes them, the left-wing lamestream press is constitutionally negligent of their civic duty to investigate and hold accountable those who seek our highest office. That’s okay because we have the new media, led by the New Media Journal, and great writers such as JB. Please read his latest piece titled “Guilt by Association?” at the NMJ. While you’re there read his last piece titled “A Congressional Rich White Guy Caucus?” For those of you locally here in the Florida Panhandle who enjoy JB’s work you missed one great speech from him last Saturday night at Eddie’s banquet.
Speaking of great writers of NMJ and someone who spoke at the banquet, Florida Panhandle’s very own Lance Fairchok has a blistering piece on NMJ titled “The Media & Race: Getting It Wrong” and Lance exposes the overused and misused term “racism.” Here’s an excerpt:
You notice the men Barack Obama calls friends? Reverends Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger, Tony Rezco, and most disturbing, William Ayers are four men that a presidential wannabe probably should think twice about hanging out with.
There is a video that Senator Obama is trying to have pulled off the air, going so far as demanding that the Justice Department conduct a criminal investigation against the producers. I want you to watch this video and tell me what is criminal about it. So much for freedom of speech!
Hat tip to Tom (Walter) Jennings for this…
This letter was written by Charles Grennel and his comrades who are veterans of the Global War On Terror. Grennel is an Army Reservist who spent two years in Iraq and was a principal in putting together the first Iraq elections in January of 2005. It was written to Jill Edwards, a student at the University of Washington , who did not want to honor Medal of Honor winner USMC Colonel Greg Boyington. Ms. Edwards and other students (and faculty) do not think those who serve in the U.S. armed services are good role models.
