I’ll BET YOU DIDN’T SEE THIS IN THE NEWSPAPER OR ON THE ‘6 O’CLOCK NEWS!
The sailor pictured below is US Navy Petty Officer PO2 (Petty Officer, Second
Class) EOD2 (Explosive Ordnance Disposal, Second Class) Mike Monsoor.
April 5th, 1981 ~ September 19th, 2009
Mike Monsoor was awarded “the Congressional Medal of Honor” last week, for giving his life in Iraq, as he jumped on, and covered with his body, a live hand grenade that was accidentally dropped by a Navy Seal, saving the lives of a large group of Navy Seals that was passing by!
During Mike Monsoor’s funeral, at Ft. Rosecrans National Cemetery, in San Diego, California, the six pallbearers removed the rosewood casket from the Hearse. Lined up on each side of the casket, were his family members, friends, fellow sailors, and well-wishers. The column of people continued from the hearse, all the way to the grave site. What the group didn’t know at the time
was, every Navy Seal, 45 to be exact, that Mike Monsoor saved that day was scattered throughout the column!
As the pallbearers carried the rosewood casket down the column of people to the grave side, the column would collapse, forming a group of people that followed behind. Every time the rosewood casket passed a Seal, he would remove his gold trident pin from his uniform, and slap it down hard, causing the pin to embed itself into the top of the wooden casket! Then the Seal would step back from the column, and salute! It was said, that you could hear each of the 45 slaps from across the cemetery! By the time the rosewood casket reached the grave site, it looked as though it had a gold inlay from the 45 trident pins that lined the top!
Now for those who don’t know what a trident pin is, or what it looks like, here are The qualifications required to become a US Navy Seal.
After completing the basic Navy Seal program which lasts for three weeks,it is followed by Seal qualification training, which is 15 more weeks of training, necessary to continue improving basic skills, and to learn new tactics and techniques, which is required for assignment to a Navy Seal platoon. After successful completion, trainees are given their Naval Enlisted Code, and are awarded the Navy Seal trident pin. With this gold pin they are now officially a Navy Seal!
This was a fitting end to an eternal sendoff for a warrior hero! This should have been Front page news, instead of the garbage we listen to and see every day.
Here’s a good idea! Since the mainstream media won’t make this news, then we should make it news by forwarding it.
I am proud of all the branches of our military. Are you?
Wah Wah Wah?
YOU JUST DON’T UNDERSTAND ME AND MY PROGRAM
State of the Union Address…
It’s all Bush’s fault!
A Typical Government Chicken Dinner…
VERY INTERESTING!
On a recent Glenn Beck Show (he’s on FOX.News), now Second to Oprah, he had a graph that illustrated the percentage of each past president’s cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is… a real life business, not a government job. Here are the percentages discussed by Mr. Beck.
T. Roosevelt……… 38%
Taft…………………. 40%
Wilson ……………. 52%
Harding……………. 49%
Coolidge…………… 48%
Hoover ……………. 42%
F. Roosevelt……… 50%
Truman……………. 50%
Eisenhower……….. 57%
Kennedy…………… 30%
Johnson…………… 47%
Nixon………………. 53%
Ford……………….. 42%
Carter……………… 32%
Reagan…………….. 56%
GH Bush………….. 51%
Clinton ……………. 39%
GW Bush…………. 55%
And the winner of the Chicken Dinner is…
Obama…………….. 8% !!!
Yep! Thats right! Only Eight Percent!!! The least by far of the last 19 presidents!! And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business? They know what’s best for GM… Chrysler…Wall Street… and you and me?
How can the president of a major nation and society… the one with the most successful economic system in world history… stand and talk about business when he’s never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one??!
And neither has 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers! They’ve spent most of their time in academia, government and/or non-profit jobs, or as “community organizers”… when they should have been in an employment line.
GOD PLEASE HELP AMERICA!!
The year is 1947:
Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and mule ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico. This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations.
However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:
Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Hillary Rodham
John F. Kerry
William J. Clinton
Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi
Dianne Feinstein
Charles E. Schumer
Barbara Boxer
See what happens when aliens breed with sheep and jackasses?
I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me.
No wonder they support the bill to help illegal aliens!
An E-Mail I Received…
You know, I think everyone, no matter what party or who you voted for should take a look at this. Pretty interesting, but so sad.
President Obama just completed an
ANTI-AMERICAN TRIFECTA:
· 1st president in 110 years to miss the annual Army-Navy Football Game.
· 1st president to not attend any Christmas religious observance.
· 1st president to stay on vacation after a terrorist attack.
So, Let’s Recap “2009”………what a year!
1. The American people elect a president with a total of 142 days experience as a US Senator from the most politically corrupt state (city) in America,
whose governors have been ousted from office. The President’s first official act is to order the close of Gitmo and make sure terrorists’ civil
rights are not violated. (honest mistake?)
2. The U.S. Congress rushes to confirm a black Attorney General, Eric Holder, whose law firm we later find out represents seventeen Gitmo Terrorists. (An honest mistake?!)
3. The CIA Boss appointee, Leon Panetta, has absolutely no
experience, has a daughter Linda, we find out, who is a true radical anti-American activist and a supporter of all the Anti-American regimes in the
western hemisphere. (There were socio-economic factors involved!)
4. We got the second most corrupt American woman (Pelosi is #1) as Secretary of State; bought and paid for. (You can put lipstick on a pig,
but it still stinks!)
5. We got a Tax Cheat for Treasury Secretary who did not properly
file his own taxes for 12 years. (He misspoke!)
6. A Commerce Secretary nominee who withdrew due to corruption
charges. (Another honest mistake???)
7. A Tax cheat nominee for Chief Performance Officer who withdrew
under charges. (Hmmm… another screw-up?)
8. A Labor Secretary nominee who withdrew under charges of unethical conduct. (Ok, maybe this person was just plain stupid.)
9. A Secretary HHS nominee (Daschle) who withdrew under charges of cheating on his taxes. (I’m running out of excuses for these idiots!!)
10. Multiple appointments of former lobbyists after an absolute campaign statement that no lobbyists would be appointed. (Dear God, I am getting a headache!)
All this occurred just during the first three weeks. . . but who’s counting?
America is being run by the modern-day Three Stooges ; Barry, Nancy and Harry and they are still trying to define stimulus….”it’s spending!!!”
The congress passes the $800,000,000,000 (that’s $800 billion) pork-loaded
spending bill where the government gives you a smidgen of your tax dollars ($13 per week), making you feel so good about yourself [stimulated],
that you want to run out to Wal-Mart and buy a new Chinese-made HDTV and go home and watch Telemundo!
Here’s the good news though – Obama took Air Force One to Denver to sign the stimulus package, wasting as much as 10,000 gallons of fuel OR 24 JOBS FOR ONE YEAR.
Don’t you just love hypocrites?
Speaking of praying, Obama has now been president for eleven
months, and yet he &wife (first lady) Michelle, the Christian family they
claim to be, have not attended church since the inauguration… He must miss Reverend Wright!
In these times, I’ll keep my God, my freedom, my gun and my money.
Anyone that supports this insanity can keep “THE CHANGE”.
