Army Col. Van T. Barfoot (ret)

Here's the article that started this rant of mine.

In case you were interested to see why he was awarded the Medal of Honor in the first place.

I'm going to be retiring from the Navy after 20 years of active duty service here next month. I'm highly honored to be able to have my ceremony at the WW II Museum. A museum erected to honor men like Mr. Barfoot. All I can say is that I haven't done anything close to what that man had done, but darn it, if I want to fly a 20ft American flag off a 50ft flag pole, then I'm going to! Why? Because I just so happen to love what has been and still is the best country the world knows, period!

Obamanation, his wife and followers just don't get it. This as been and still is (with the exception of the current leadership) the best country the world has known or probably will know. Why?

What other country will come out, bomb the crap out of you, then come in and...

1. Help you rebuild. Fix buildings and roads. Build housing and hospitals. Just ask the Israelis when the last time the Palestinians did that for them. You hear me Obamanation?!?!?!? I don't think Saddam EVER did that for his own people.

2. Need medical care? We can do that too and WITHOUT a public option. You hear that too, Obamanation AND Congress?!?!?!?!

This is nothing new. We did it after WW II on both sides of the world. I'm sure had we united Korea, we would have done the same thing. If we would have seen Vietnam through to a win, then we would have done the same thing. See a pattern?

This is NOT opinion. This is fact and know only by those who actually STUDY REAL HISTORY and not the crap that spews out of schools now a days. I just thank God that I went through school in the 70s and 80s before the real lib-a-tards got a hold of the school system.

Last note, then I'll get off my soap box.... My wife is from the Philippines and keeps asking me when American is going to attack the Philippines so America can rebuild the Philippines.

No such thing as liberal media?????

Here's the original article that started this rant of mine.

Let's talk about the fact that the liberal media jumped all over Rush Limbaugh when he likened Lord High Obama's health care logo to a swastika and compared the Democrats to the Nazis and how Nancy Pelosi gets very little attention when she claims that people we carrying swastikas at a pro-Obamacare town hall meeting.

Oh yeah..... there's no such thing as "liberal media". *rolls eyes* So why then can Pelosi get away with saying something that was most likely false, yet Limbaugh gets stomped on for his comments?

Why don't I believe Pelosi? Where's the photographic evidence? You can't tell me that there we're any photographers there at this event. If there were, I'm sure they would have taken several pictures that those pictures would have been all over the news.

Not only this, but Pelosi thinks that those of us who are smart enough to oppose this ridiculous idea of the Obama administration are "Astroturf". ASTROTURF?!?!?!?!?!?!?! IS SHE SERIOUS?!?!?!?!?!?!?

This just goes to show me that the Democrats that are currently in power really don't care about the American people. They aren't looking towards Canada and England and other countries where they've tried this government ran health care and IT DOESN'T WORK!!!!!!!

I'm worried about my family with this, especially my mom. My mom has a serious heart condition and has had it for more years than I can remember. It’s a miracle of modern medicine that she’s still with us. I know (for a fact) that if Obamacare is passed, I’ll be losing my mom. All the government ran health care will tell us is that they will either offer my mom Hospice or a quick and easy death. Sounds harsh, but it is what it is. That’s because her health care costs are not cheap and she’s 69 years young.

God willing, Obamacare will fail and the world’s greatest health care system will continue to be such. Why else would so many outside of the U.S. come here for their medical care?
