The people running the show are now all too young to remember, and are likewise to self-centered to give a shit about anything but themselves and bullship PC.<br /><br />I was born in '52, well after WW2 ended, but my parents (both served) made sure I knew what happened, what caused it, and the unfathomable sacrifices and tough decisions it took to end it. And they were DEMOCRATS! Shame on Barry and those like him who blame the USA for all the world's problems. Go look in a mirror, jackwagon!<br /><br />Oh, and along these lines... We have been protecting Europe for decades now, and all they do is whine about us being bullies and warmongers?

I'm sure it's a technique outlined in "Alinsky for Dummies" somewhere. <br /><br />@Judi King- I have no doubt that Barry's got his eye on the U.N. after completion of his second term.<br /><br />@Boligat- I'm sure it would be considered hate speech by many, but I've also made the observation from time to time that the descendants of slaves in America are on average doing much better than the descendants of those who stayed behind in Africa. <br /><br />@John Ortmann- I just took a look at the book and comments on Amazon. Sounds like very powerful material.<br /><br />@David in SoCal- That was a very moving video. Thank you for sharing it. My condolences to your son and Mr. Leathers' family and friends.<br /><br />@John the Econ- Excellent points. Obama's moral facade fails when considered logically. And I, too, can't imagine the "safe space" generation stopping the horrors of World War II.<br /><br />@Shelly- Oh sure, Bush 41 saw some perilous times - but Barry had to survive nightmarish internment in expensive private schools while growing up.<br /><br />@Bobo the Hobo- Thank you for sharing Walter's story. Amazing.<br /><br />@Linda McWilliams- Obama will be out of office long before any legal action could touch him. Sadly. Look at the glacial pace of the investigation into Hillary.<br /><br />@Bruce Fauth- My visit to the Arizona memorial at Pearl Harbor was genuinely one of the most sobering experiences of my life. Meanwhile, on Youtube you can look up Obama making reference to "The Bomb" being dropped on Pearl Harbor. I'm not sure if it was a slip of the tongue, genuine ignorance, or both.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- Watching Barry is beyond painful as well as injurious to health.

I'm pretty sure he considers it suitable only for riff-raff. And yes, good for Chick-fil-A!<br /><br />@Bluebird Bob- First, thank you for your service! I agree that military experience would be good training for anyone who intends to become our Commander in Chief.<br /><br />@rusty f@yahoo.com- And thank <i>you</i> for your service. Like you, I have no qualms over using atomic bombs to end a war we didn't start. And when I say "end" I mean <i>win</i> instead of using the Valerie Jarrett definition.<br /><br />@Jim Irre- I genuinely, in my heart of hearts, believe that Barry hates our country. I think his "fundamental changes" prove it.<br /><br />@Bobo the Hobo- It's hard to argue with history. I'm certainly not the first to point it out, but Hiroshima has done a lot better than Detroit over the years. Proving that liberalism is more destructive than atomic weaponry.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- You'll get no argument from me.<br /><br />@Anonymous- Now <i>there's</i> a good glass half-full sentiment!<br /><br />@Bill- I found myself wondering how many people (outside of HnC regulars) would even recognize the name "Enola Gay" anymore. Certainly I doubt that most of Hillary's supporters, or ANY of Bernie's supporters, would have a clue.<br /><br />@AmyH- I also saw some articles about the house Barry will be buying in DC. I'm sure raising money for it won't be a problem once he hits the lecture circuit.<br /><br />@Fred Ciampi- All I can say about those black SUVs is "yikes!"<br /><br />@James Daily- First a thank you to your entire family! And sadly, this IS nothing new - Obama has been remarkably consistent about the anti-American messages he has sent since his first day in office.Stilton Jarlsberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14503164551782304564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-77257064056203707042016-05-31T11:47:11.833-05:002016-05-31T11:47:11.833-05:00Is Obama going to visit Pearl Harbor on the 75th a...Is Obama going to visit Pearl Harbor on the 75th anniversary of the Japanese surprise attack, and what is he going to apologize for then and there?John the Econnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-15118373218308841772016-05-31T09:55:51.677-05:002016-05-31T09:55:51.677-05:00Bruce Fauth, I agree and empathize with you.

My cousin returned home to Australia, started a store that employed almost 100 people, and was honored by Queen Elizabeth II for his work with an OBE (Order of the British Empire) before he passed away. I have a copy of his diary which to say the least, infuriating, uplifting, enthusiastic, funny, sad, and just plain good reading. Walter was an amazing man but if you were to ask him, he was just one of many blokes who endured horrific treatment by the Japanese but was lucky enough to return home to his Thelma.<br /><br />The recovery of Walter's diary is pretty darned fascinating as Walter kept meticulous notes on stolen paper and whatever else he could lay his hands on then he buried parts of the diary around the Changi camp in an effort to elude discovery. His brother, Tom, used clues left behind to dig up the diary. It's a riveting read.<br /><br />From the blogs I have read over the last several days, I would venture to state that our fearless leader's "Eff You, America" tour to Asia left a bitter taste in a lot of people's mouths. I know his shuck and jive routine lit a fire in my soul.Bobo the Hobonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-86516084941192197802016-05-30T17:48:04.815-05:002016-05-30T17:48:04.815-05:00I was reading this morning that Bush 41 narrowly e...I was reading this morning that Bush 41 narrowly escaped being beheaded and eaten by Japanese soldiers.

That didn't happen because we sucked up to political correctness and started apologizing for everything. It happened because we made them respect us by soundly defeating them, and then made them respect us more by helping them rebuild their country.<br /><br />Again I ask: If dropping a nuclear bomb that can kill tens-to-hundreds of thousands is so immoral, then why isn't dropping thousands of bombs that kill hundreds of thousands or more? The only difference is the ratio of lives to bombs. Other than that, the killing is the same. We were literally killing hundreds-of-thousands of Japanese every night in the weeks leading up to Hiroshima. And that we not dropped the two bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we would have continued doing so until the entire nation was a charred wasteland.<br /><br /><b>The real irony of Obama's preachy "the end of nuclear weapons" speech is not just that Obama himself has made it inevitable that rouge states like Iran will soon be nuclear within the foreseeable future, but that Japan itself is likely do the same within a decade.</b> Japan's leaders have long since seen the writing on the wall, and will feel pressured to do so because of the Obama and pajama boy policy of retracting the protective umbrella that has kept Japan and our allies safe and free for the last 70 years while an empowered China and Russia flex their muscles in the region.<br /><br />It's now fashionable to call the people who liberated the world from fascism "The Greatest Generation". It never would have occurred to the average citizen of 1941 to call themselves that. They simply did what a nation of freedom-minded people would do under those circumstances. They only seem to be the "greatest" by today's standard of citizenship, where people demand what their country can do for them instead of the other way around.<br /><br />One shudders to think how this generation of Pajama Boys would react to a another 1941, other than try to escape to their "safe spaces".John the Econnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8993108951931633758.post-48993033801691767652016-05-30T15:02:52.861-05:002016-05-30T15:02:52.861-05:00My fellow Hopey-Changelings: Wishing you all a sa...My fellow Hopey-Changelings: Wishing you all a safe/thoughtful/and solemn Memorial Day; filled with family/friendship and remembrance of those who paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we enjoy today.
