Making Babies in the US Military

Making Babies in the US Military
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet
*************************

"The U.S. Military commander in northern Iraq defended on Tuesday a new policy imposing strict penalties, including possible jail time, for troops who become pregnant or get other soldiers pregnant. "In this 22,000-soldier task force, I need every soldier I've got, especially since we are facing a draw down of forces during our mission," Major General Tony Cucolo, who commands U.S. soldiers in northern Iraq, said in a statement. His policy applies only to his command." Read the entire article HERE.

It is a "No-No!" You can look but you cannot touch. Well, that rule works about as well today as it did way back when chaperones were all in vogue.

See, once again, we are messing with Mother Nature. And it never works! At least, it never works out well.

With all the babies being conceived at the front lines in the two wars in the Middle East, Afghanistan, and Iraq, another of our socialist government's social experiments has failed.

Let me see how plain I can make this: Even a complete fool, a blithering idiot, an imbecile, a Moran, knows -- without a shadow of a doubt -- that if you put young men and young women together in an environment where hormones surge continuously they will find each other and they will copulate. It is Mother Nature's way of insuring the survival of the species.

Everybody KNOWS this instinctively. Except, it would seem, for the feminists among us who deny the existence of natural law. Call it what you will -- when you deny that young men and young women will find a way to engage in sex ANYWHERE, including the battlefield, then you are denying the existence of such a thing as natural law.

OK. Just so the record is clear. I do not believe there is a role for women in combat, anywhere, anytime, under any circumstances. PERIOD! Women are the sacred "givers of life." Without women the human species would die out -- and quickly. Women should be protected, at all costs, even at the cost of the male's life.

Nature (God, if you please.) created the male and the female differently with different characteristics. The male was made larger, muscular, and more aggressive. The female was made smaller but with the ability to hold within her body a new life which, when fully developed, would emerge as a brand new human being. The female would perpetuate life; she would insure that the human species would survive on this garden planet, which was given us as our home.

The point is: if there were no female combat soldiers, the military would not be facing this problem. "Oh," but you say, "There are no American women serving in combat roles in the US Military!" That is pure "bovine scatology!" If you believe that -- I have a hell of a deal on a bridge in Brooklyn I'd like to talk with you about!

Woman soldiers have been fighting, in combat, in Iraq and Afghanistan right from the start. Their roles have been disguised. Sometimes they are truck drivers and security guards for convoys, helo pilots, tanker pilots, etc, etc. The ruse goes on. They are out there getting shot at and shooting back. And, in my opinion, they ought not be anywhere near the battlefield! There are plenty of jobs for women in the military -- in the rear areas -- completely away from combat. Filling those jobs with women would free up the men, now sitting behind computer monitors, to grab a rifle and a pack and get their dead rear ends to the front and engage the enemy! (By the way – before I get all the comments about “There are no front lines in combat any more, understand that I KNOW that! It is still a useful euphemism to describe the point of heightened danger from the enemy.)

Want to know how our politically correct military is handling the situation of so many pregnant soldiers at the front? Take a look at this: "The military's solution, instead, is to promote total abstinence, which let's face it, is entirely unrealistic. Cucolo's policy also prohibits soldiers from having sex with Iraqis or from spending the night with a member of the opposite sex unless married or granted explicit permission. Instead, the military might fare better if they provided reliable access to birth control for soldiers, both male and female." You may read the entire article HERE.

Back in my day in the US Army we were issued "Pro-Kits" when we received a three-day, or a weekend, pass. It was understood that we were going to have sex with an accommodating female as soon as possible and as often as possible. You could always tell when it was "Pay Day" on the Post without ever glancing at a calendar. The main streets of the Post would suddenly be crowded with automobiles, filled to capacity, with women of all descriptions flaunting their wares and assuring us they would be waiting to fulfill our dreams just outside the front gates. And they always were.

Within my first week as a soldier in the US Army my company was marched over to the WAC (Women’s Army Corp) barracks and we were lectured, while standing just outside the wire fence that surrounded that forbidden land. We were told, in no uncertain terms, that if we were caught on the other side of that wire we would be shot -- period-- end of discussion! You know, I believed them!

I think it is admirable for a young woman to want to serve her country in the US Military. But, I also think her service should be confined to a military occupation that insures her safety far from the killing and dying. She should NEVER be in danger. But then, I am "an old foggie,” a believer in chivalry, a man reared to respect women, and time has passed me by. So say some.
Forgive me if I see no respect for women by placing them in harm's way on the battlefield -- even if they demand it. The complete idiocy of such a policy says much about a nation's care for its citizens. Placing women in combat positions breaks the foremost rule of Nature, and it will insure the downfall the nation that makes it a practice and it places the entire human species in danger of extinction. How DUMB is THAT?!

Had those female soldiers not been there to begin with, this problem would never have come up.

Woman in combat is just plain DUMB! And you wonder why America can no longer win a war? Really? I mean, do you REALLY wonder about that?

Obama’s Make-Believe Life ... by Alan Caruba

Obama’s Make-Believe Life
By Alan Caruba

********************

I have this theory about Barack Obama. I think he’s led a kind of make-believe life in which money was provided and doors were opened because at some point early on somebody or some group took a look at this tall, good looking, half-white, half-black, young man with an exotic African/Muslim name and concluded he could be guided toward a life in politics where his facile speaking skills could even put him in the White House.

In a very real way, he has been a young man in a very big hurry. Who else do you know has written two memoirs before the age of 45? “Dreams of My Father” was published in 1995 when he was only 34 years old. The “Audacity of Hope” followed in 2006. If, indeed, he did write them himself. There are some who think that his mentor and friend, Bill Ayers, a man who calls himself a “communist with a small ‘c’” was the real author.

His political skills consisted of rarely voting on anything that might be deemed controversial. He went from a legislator in the Illinois legislature to the Senator from that state because he had the good fortune of having Mayor Daley’s formidable political machine at his disposal.

He was in the U.S. Senate so briefly that his bid for the presidency was either an act of astonishing self-confidence or part of some greater game plan that had been determined before he first stepped foot in the Capital. How, many must wonder, was he selected to be a 2004 keynote speaker at the Democrat convention that nominated John Kerry when virtually no one had ever even heard of him before?

He outmaneuvered Hillary Clinton in primaries. He took Iowa by storm. A charming young man, an anomaly in the state with a very small black population, he oozed “cool” in a place where agriculture was the antithesis of cool. He dazzled the locals. And he had an army of volunteers drawn to a charisma that hid any real substance.

And then he had the great good fortune of having the Republicans select one of the most inept candidates for the presidency since Bob Dole. And then John McCain did something crazy. He picked Sarah Palin, an unknown female governor from the very distant state of Alaska. It was a ticket that was reminiscent of 1984’s Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro and they went down to defeat.

The mainstream political media fell in love with him. It was a schoolgirl crush with febrile commentators like Chris Mathews swooning then and now over the man. The venom directed against McCain and, in particular, Palin, was extraordinary.

Now, nearly a full year into his first term, all of those gilded years leading up to the White House have left him unprepared to be President. Left to his own instincts, he has a talent for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. It swiftly became a joke that he could not deliver even the briefest of statements without the ever-present Tele-Prompters.

Far worse, however, is his capacity to want to “wish away” some terrible realities, not the least of which is the Islamist intention to destroy America and enslave the West. Any student of history knows how swiftly Islam initially spread. It knocked on the doors of Europe, having gained a foothold in Spain.

The great crowds that greeted him at home or on his campaign “world tour” were no substitute for having even the slightest grasp of history and the reality of a world filled with really bad people with really bad intentions.

Oddly and perhaps even inevitably, his political experience, a cakewalk, has positioned him to destroy the Democrat Party’s hold on power in Congress because in the end it was never about the Party. It was always about his communist ideology, learned at an early age from family, mentors, college professors, and extreme leftist friends and colleagues.

Obama is a man who could deliver a snap judgment about a Boston police officer who arrested an “obstreperous” Harvard professor-friend, but would warn Americans against “jumping to conclusions” about a mass murderer at Fort Hood who shouted “Allah Akbar.” The absurdity of that was lost on no one. He has since compounded this by called the Christmas bomber “an isolated extremist” only to have to admit a day or two later that he was part of an al Qaeda plot.

He is a man who could strive to close down our detention facility at Guantanamo even though those released were known to have returned to the battlefield against America. He could even instruct his Attorney General to afford the perpetrator of 9/11 a civil trial when no one else would ever even consider such an obscenity. And he is a man who could wait three days before having anything to say about the perpetrator of yet another terrorist attack on Americans and then have to elaborate on his remarks the following day because his first statement was so lame.

The pattern repeats itself. He either blames any problem on the Bush administration or he naively seeks to wish away the truth.

Knock, knock. Anyone home? Anyone there? Barack Obama exists only as the sock puppet of his handlers, of the people who have maneuvered and manufactured this pathetic individual’s life.

When anyone else would quickly and easily produce a birth certificate, this man has spent over a million dollars to deny access to his. Most other documents, the paper trail we all leave in our wake, have been sequestered from review. He has lived a make-believe life whose true facts remain hidden.

We laugh at the ventriloquist’s dummy, but what do you do when the dummy is President of the United States of America?

Global Governance -- Presidential Executive Order 12425

One-World Government/Global Governance
Look What Obama Has Done Now!
Executive Order Number 12425
*******************************
Obama gives Interpol free hand in U.S.

(From The Washington Examiner HERE>)

Below is the text of the Executive Order amending EO 12425:
*************************************
Home • Briefing Room • Presidential Actions • Executive Orders
The White House
Office of the Press Secretary
For Immediate Release December 17, 2009 Executive Order -- Amending Executive Order 12425

EXECUTIVE ORDER - - - - - - - AMENDING EXECUTIVE ORDER 12425 DESIGNATING INTERPOL AS A PUBLIC INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATION ENTITLED TO ENJOY CERTAIN PRIVILEGES, EXEMPTIONS, AND IMMUNITIES

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 1 of the International Organizations Immunities Act (22 U.S.C. 288), and in order to extend the appropriate privileges, exemptions, and immunities to the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL), it is hereby ordered that Executive Order 12425 of June 16, 1983, as amended, is further amended by deleting from the first sentence the words "except those provided by Section 2(c), Section 3, Section 4, Section 5, and Section 6 of that Act" and the semicolon that immediately precedes them.

BARACK OBAMA

THE WHITE HOUSE, December 16, 2009.
***********************************
Now, look at this:

Here's the text of 2(c), which this EO now has applying to INTERPOL:(c) Property and assets of international organizations, wherever located and by whomsoever held, shall be immune from search, unless such immunity be expressly waived, and from confiscation. The archives of international organizations shall be inviolable.

An INTERPOL branch in the US now cannot be searched, it's files are not subject to legal subpoena nor discovery. If any branch of government wants to keep documents out of the hands of the court system, just hand them over to INTERPOL until the smoke clears.

INTERPOL will now be able to maintain files on US citizens.By this EO, Obama has conferred diplomatic immunity upon INTERPOL, exemption from being subject to search and seizure by law enforcement, exemption from US taxes, and immunity from FOIA requests, etc.

Obama just declared INTERPOL records immune from search and seizure -- "The archives of international organizations shall be inviolable."

Does INTERPOL have a file on Obama -- on his associations? EO 12425

****************************************

Is there any doubt left that Obama's handlers are dead set on global governance with the US becoming just another "country" among the 190, or so, countries on the globe today?

Yes, I do mean Obama's Handlers! You don't REALLY think Obama is President, do you? REALLY??? (Insert nervous laugh here)

You know, I used to laugh at the poor “schnooks” who subscribed to the conspiracy theory of a global cabal with the primary goal of bringing all countries on the planet together under the auspices of one single government... and THEY would run that government. But, I gotta tell ya... with the Obama Regime in power, it is beginning to look more and more, every day, like those poor “schnooks” were right and I am the dull blade in the drawer!

When I consider the amendment to EO 12425 I can see no other reason for such a maneuver. It just sort of "fits" with the slow incrementalism being empolyed in the "subrosa effort" to create the dasdardly entity of a One-World Government.

By the way, I thought we had three co-equal branches of government in the US. It certainly seems, these days, there is only one -- and that is the Obama Regime run by ... who knows!

White House Prepares To Force Its Will On Conference Committee

House Members Declare “Public Option” A Must For Passage Of “ObamaCare”

A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet

**************************
Watch for all the “stuff” mentioned in the headlines above this commentary to become fact in the next few weeks. As a matter of fact some of it has already happened. A number of US House of representatives members are demanding that the Public Option, a government run health Insurance company, be put back in the Healthcare bill before it will get their support. Truth be told – I don’t believe a word they say.

Want to know what’s going to happen? OK. There will be this great show, complete with weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth, and then the House will pass the bill. Simple. All the fuss and bother is sorta like the old magician’s trick of “misdirection.” While you are watching the show, the real work is going on behind the scenes and the bill WILL be passed – and America will be shafted!

Look, if the White House can get it’s people into the conference committee’s meeting room, the White House “muscle” will take over and literally RUN the Conference Committee. The fascists from the White House have no problem forcing their will on Senators and they sure as heck have no problem with pushing a few lowly Congresspersons around.

Yes! Of course, this is “Stalinist” behavior by the leaders of our current government in the Executive Branch of our government! We have told you many times in the past that THIS White House is unlike any before it. This is a Socialist, Marxist, and Communist White House and they are certainly not above using Stalinist tactics to get what they want. It is an oligarchy! A handful of people have completely by-passed the legislative branch of the government and are running the government their way, which is … as a Marxist state! They are running the country with their klatch of White House “Czars!” They don’t NEED a Congress, except for show – to provide cover for their nefarious strong arm activities in the shadows. Too strong, you say? Well what would you call it when the White House threatens to shut down an Air Force Base in a certain state if the senator from that certain state does not quit stalling and support Obama’s healthcare bill in the Senate? Sounds nefarious to me! Yes, THIS White House has made the Congress totally dispensable, totally expendable, and totally meaningless.

So, what is in the healthcare bill for us to be afraid of? Huh? Again – truth be told—NOBODY KNOWS! It hasn’t even been written yet! Oh, sure, there are some “hard copies” of bits and pieces of “stuff” proposed for the bill, but the actual bill, the bill Congress will eventually vote on, has yet to be written. This frenetic rush, to get a bill passed, was all a part of the scheme to hit us, the American people, hard and fast. So fast, that we would not be able to react quick enough to stop the stream roller effect -- and -- if their plan worked, the bill would be the Law Of The Land before you and I even knew what hit us.

But, as is so often the case, a few of us old screwballs, you know, “nutz” like us who still believe in the Constitution, (For you graduates of the Public School System in America, the Constitution is the supreme law of the land. It is one of our founding documents. I understand you may never have heard of it, but you can easily look it up on the Internet and read it for yourself. It is actually easy to understand -- when you read it for yourself -- and not have it interpreted for you by a Liberal/Socialist/Marxist/Progressive/Communist judge. Try it. You’ll learn some things!) and have been around the political block a few times, took one look at it and saw right through the ruse and began alerting everyone we could about “the scam” the Socialists in the White House, and the Congress, were perpetrating on their fellow countrymen.

I came across a short list of just a handful of concerns about the proposals for the bill from a LIBERAL blog site, of all places. Take a look at these:

It forces you to pay up to 8 percent of your income to private insurance corporations -- whether you want to or not.

If you refuse to buy the insurance, you'll have to pay penalties of up to 2 percent of your annual income to the Internal Revenue Service.

After being forced to pay thousands in premiums for junk insurance, you can still be on the hook for up to $11,900 a year in out-of-pocket medical expenses.

Many of the taxes to pay for the bill start now, but most Americans won't see any benefits -- like an end to discrimination against those with pre-existing conditions -- until 2014 when the program begins.

It allows insurance companies to charge older people 300 percent more than other customers.
The cost of medical care will continue to rise, and insurance premiums for a family of four will rise an average of $1,000 a year -- meaning in 10 years, you family's insurance premium will be $10,000 more annually than it is right now.

Check this out at Jane Hamsher’s blog -- the “Fire Dog Lake” Blog. You will find her blog site HERE.

The bottom line is this: The Socialist/Stalinists in the White House are going to pass the healthcare bill no matter what the American people want. They entered the White House with the sole purpose of “changing” (remember that word – CHANGE) into a “hell-hole” of a third world country where everyone SUFFERS equally!) And, to be honest, they are making tremendous progress. Look at our national economic situation and look at the millions already out of work and soon to be joined by millions more until we reach somewhere around 20 to 23 percent unemployment. There are reports floating around to the effect that the 10% unemployment figure is not to be believed. They tell us the true figure is closer to 13% and closing fairly rapidly on 17%. Controlling the flow of accurate information to the people of the country IS Stalinist behavior.

Yes, we live in a very different America today than was envisaged by the Founding Fathers. I suspect that if they could see us now they would be asking how we ever allowed it to progress THIS far. The answer: Apathy and Ignorance instilled in at least one generation (and at least part of another) of Americans through the government controlled Public Education System which has become little more than Government Indoctrination Centers.

Go over to Lew Rockwell.Com and take a look at a piece titled:” Hooray for Stalinist America!” You’ll find it HERE.

A fight is coming. Whether it will be a hot fight or a cold fight will be determined later as it unfolds. But rest assured a fight is coming and it is going to get VERY UGLY! The chickens are being plucked and the tar is being heated as brand new rails are being split from those endangered trees we hear far too much about.

The ONLY C H A N G E Obama has been able to successfully accomplish, that I can tell, is changing this country from a Democratic Representative Republic, to a Socialist/Stalinist oligarchy. How long now until the official government approved greeting for Americans, one to another, will be “Comrade?” Not long, I suspect!

Home FromThe Hospital ... Finally!

"Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated!"... Mark Twain/Sam Clemens
********************************

I am now home from the hospital and very weak. It will be a few days before I will be back up to speed.

I may have mentioned before that I am a Crohn’s Disease patient. Had it all my life. I’ve been hospitalized well over 70 times since 1967. (I hope this explains my passion in the argument against ObamaCare!)

Thanks for your inquiries, your e-mails, and phone calls. It is humbling, to say the least.

I have lost a good deal of blood, I am told by the docs, and it will take some time to re-manufacture that blood. In the meantime, I will be weak and unable to participate fully in any activities.

I ask for your continued prayers as we fight yet another battle with “the disease from hell.”

Thanks!

JDL
