— Gabriel Malor You guys know the drill.
The Boston-area chapter of the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association closed last month. There are too few left.
The Baltimore Sun editorial page on December 8, 1941: "Since force is to be the determining factor, we resort to force."
There are ceremonies all over the place to mark the 70th anniversary of the attack. I'll be at this one. Check your local paper to see if there's one near you.

On this day in 1941, a day of infamy. Today is National Pearl Harbor Remembrance day.

The story on Alec Baldwin and the plane
Hot-head Alec Baldwin was kicked off an American Airlines flight this afternoon in Los Angeles because he was playing a game on his phone apparently past the point when passengers are supposed to have turned off their devices.
DoesnÂ’t AA know? He is part of the liberal elite. Rules are only for us peons.

DEA didn't just sell guns, they laundered money as well
I still want to know who is going to jail.

What I want to know is how
did this scrunt make it out of the Judiciary committee? Someone had to sell
out. She was nominated and voted out of committee (10/
way back in Sep 2010.
This while the Dems had a 60 vote Senate. But at least one Republican had to
agree to vote her out of committee then.
The Washington Times says it ends a 6 year truce - hahahahaha
Is it a truce if only one side surrenders? Supposedly the Gang of 14 BS deal from McCain was to allow Bush judges. I think we got 1 or 2 and they still blocked the rest.

New Winthrop University poll in SC has Newt in the lead
I have some serious doubts about this poll. Especially when they say most support a tax increase to “fix the budget”. Tax increases have NEVER ‘fixed the budget” in this country. They always result in spending increases and even larger deficits.

This time, the annual U.N. climate change summit is taking place in Durban, South Africa. It looks painfully like another misguided attempt to convince developed countries to shoulder global emissions targets while redistributing wealth to developing countries.
This has always been the aim of the UN portion of this fraud. Same for the U.S. gov portion as well.

I doubt any poll results from VOTERS who want their taxes increased, especially during hard times. But then, polls tell what the pollsters predestine to be said. As if all things depend on the meaning of "is".

I have never felt such disgust toward an elected official (and each and every idiot that voted for him) in all of my life as I have after the SCOAMF's "Embrace of Communism, Socialism, Marxism, Progressivism" speech yesterday. How can you rise to the highest office in the land and be so willfully ignorant of reality, not to mention economics and the Constitution?

Obama's Pearl Harbor message to American Veterans? His infamous YCKMA bow to the Japanese following his unsuccessful concerted effort for Japan's permission to propagandize against the USA of WWII. Particularly sick, given his ties to Hawaii. Odd juxtaposition of executive leadership, as if by precedent (fiction) "sovereignty" the Pacific Islands State were to be ceded to China, Alaska returned to Russia, while harnessing the contiguous States as Federal provinces, making us all wards of the Federal State but without tribal rights, let alone Bill of Rights.

...while redistributing wealth to developing countries.
As if any of the wealth pirated by UN financial interests ever develops "developing" countries. Study the Arab Spring Winter of Discontent, for recent examples of "development" to see investment as the chaos and hardships of war for naught, forcing populations to jump from the frying pan of strongman sovereignty into the jihad fire of sectarian genocide. Stateside, as if any of the taxes our Congress burdens us with to bail-out the too-big-to-fail financial corporations ever benefits the taxpayers; rather, squandered again on more frauds to enrich those who manipulate the purse strings who buy what everyone already knows from consultants like Newt. As if consultation fees amount to much beyond redistributing wealth amongst the wealthy. It isn't as if corruption is thwarted, advice taken or solutions dealt by government bureaucrats whose vested interest is self aggrandizing graft. (Another Oxford reason from Clinton, "Because I could.")

We'll be attending a couple of ceremonies commemorating Pearl Harbor Day. It breaks my heart to see them becoming smaller each year.
God bless those brave souls eternally.

Meh. Typical liberal professor: the use of the word "victual" in a letter to the editor should have been the first clue.
I'm not even surprised at his idiocy. To liberals, part of conservative "hypocrisy" is that we "don't help everyone." Of course, to get to that idea they have to ignore the specialization that we use. Those College Republicans were sending care packages to our soldiers. Some church group (not to mention the Salvation Army) has an Angel Tree (or similar). Yet another group runs a soup kitchen.
To this idiot, the fact that the College Republicans (as an organization- forgetting that individuals within the organization might, indeed, belong to multiple groups) are focused on one niche must necessarily mean that they are ignoring the others.

I'm a cancer doc. Last year I had one of the Pearl Harbor survivors come into my office for some treatment. Doing surprisingly well for his age. He was in the 25th Division at Schofield Barracks and later served in Guadalcanal, New Caledonia, and the Phillipines. His goal was to make it to the 70th anniversary ceremonies in Hawaii today. The local high school band was going to travel with him and help pay for the trip. I later moved away from the area, but it looks like he got his wish and was able to make the trip. One day while on treatment, he brought in his wartime photo album - it was interesting to say the least.

the necessity to constantly remind ourselves of what was exceptional or "different" about the American Dream before WWII. Before being able to work hard and enjoy the fruits of our own labor with our own property rights, the groundwork was established on the functional premise that we are all equal under the law. Our veterans have been willing to get past the wars in order to return home in expectation of having secured Constitutional Governance. Yes, pray for our service men and women. Pray that our leaders be sober to respect the Wrath of God. And vote to strengthen what our service men and women sacrifice themselves to protect; our Constitution, our Liberty and Justice. Precedence? Take heart. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
G'day.

28 Link goes to the Daily Caller. You know they will not put up "nasty" pictures of Newt and Nancy.
Heh, I actually did follow it. Seems to me they're coming up with some rather tepid criticisms of Newt at this point. Probably just saving the "good" stuff in case he actually does get the nomination, but I don't want to overthink it. I'm at the point where I wouldn't hate Newt winning, but I'm still not convinced he can, given his lack of money/staff. Who knows though, we keep hearing how different this election will be, and it might.

The funny thing was, I was one of those stupid college students who was working a double major in not one but two useless bachelor's degrees. Then I saw the light (and lost a close family member to cancer) and decided that I wanted to do something useful with my life. Yeah, the pay's not bad, but I had to trade the 10 best and most productive years of my life to get there.

You are a very intelligent woman, though in error on this point.
WWII did NOT end the Great Depression. Everyone in America was on rations throughout WWII. Even the wealthy (though they could still buy off the black market) who'd benefited immensely during the recession were put on rations throughout WWII for the war effort. And times were still hard and lean the first decade for most Americans following WWII. It wasn't until after veterans graduated from college (lean times) that businesses had time to organize for the demands since Eisenhower invested in our infrastructure with construction jobs literally paving the way to recovery. Given your previous day's comment regarding the housing market boom bearing good times, think again about chronology as well as Eisenhower's postwar administration and departing warning of where we already were, owned by war interests, when he left office.
War against China a not pretty shooting war is an understatement given that this SCOAMF Obama has ordered our troops' reconfigured identity, to be all things (other than warriors) to the foreign nations America serves (foreign mayor, doctor, teacher, leader, voter registrar, banker, baker, plumber, home builder, whatever).
War not pretty... Like Korea? Like IndoChina/VietNam? How did those wars make the US taxpayers wealthy? What did America get out of those wars? Or from wars in Afghanistan, Iraq. We got death, debt and corruption. And Trump or Santorum would attack and pirate to call it a fair day's work.
Unlike the Cold War, N.Korea today has a massive and well trained nuclear communist military. Unlike the Cold War, today China and Russia are closer than ever politically with shared global alliances that you're ignoring, not to mention that China has a modern infrastructure and military that it lacked during our Domino Wars with them. NATO or not, Turkey is allied with its Muslim neighbors today. Counting on our Intelligence saboteurs to take down our enemies? They work for the highest bidder. Word is, the East is on the ascent. Finally consider that our CIA/Military has been forfeiting America's hard earned tax underwritten national defense technology to China for too many administrations already. Skip the economic war? It's already happening. China grabs African commerce. From Myanmar, Hillary sticks her thumb in the eye of what China considers its regional sea faring business monopoly, even while NATO grabs at the Middle East. But since Libya, notice that the Russia/Syria-Iran and China/Pakistan alliances have actively responded to thwart the NATO/MuslimBro cakewalk pirating oil rich nations' central banks. (As if any amount of gold or oil would suffice those who can never have enough, those who spend other people's wealth as if their own, those who consider themselves above any civilized law. There will never be enough gold --or repackaged debt-- to prop up the EU or Euro, or bankrupted IMF, etc.)
On Pearl Harbor Day, remember that Americans instantly vilified the Japanese for having performed the first strike. And subsequently, when America initially responded on Pacific islands, Japanese barbarism against opponents was first interpreted by our newly trained but inexperienced and gullible US troops as evidence of Japanese mental inferiority. Those who would survive first contact quickly learned to respect distrust of the enemy; or by knowing the enemy, to respect yourself. Whether suffering defeat or given ultimate victory, those American troops/veterans did not conclude that the moral of the story is to become the enemy beneath contempt.
Ready for whatever may come. When the opponent expands, I contract; and
when he contracts, I expand. And when there is an opportunity, "I" do
not hit, "it" hits all by itself.--Bruce Lee

Yup. Doctors (especially specialists) spend the best years of their lives going to school and working mega hours (residency, fellowship, etc.) while other people are already out earning money. Then there is the huge amount of education debt incurred, the whole overhead thing (costs of running an office, malpractice insurance, etc.) and then the delay in getting paid (as you haggle with insurance companies to give you a fraction of what you deserve), declining reimbursements, micro-management from insurance companies and the gubamint, and it's no wonder the best and brightest are no longer going into medicine. (The quality of our residents has totally declined over the years).
I applaud you for being there for your patients. What a lot of people (who can't see past the nice houses and cars that doctors have), is that medicine truly is a calling.
