As 145 soldiers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan walked through the double doors in Terminal D at DFW Airport last week for two weeks of R&R, they were greeted not only by their families, but by former president George Bush and his wife Laura.
AFA’s long-time friend, Bert Brady, who helps coordinate the welcome home project to our troops coming home for furlough at Dallas Fort Worth airport sent us an amazing video of President Bush welcoming the troops.
Here’s an opinion piece by Chuck Green who writes “Greener Pastures” for the Denver Post/Aurora Sentinel…one of the more liberal papers in the country. Additionally, Mr. Green is a life long Democrat…so this is rather a stunning piece…

YOU’VE GOT TO LOVE THIS RANCHER’S OUTLOOK &COMMON SENSE APPROACH TO LIFE ……
While suturing up a cut on the hand of a 75 year old rancher,
whose hand had been caught in the gate while working his cattle,
the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man. Eventually
the topic got around to Obama, and his being our president.
The old rancher said, “Well, ya know, Obama is just a Post Turtle.”
Now not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked,
What’s a “Post Turtle?”

Folks who are being anesthetized by the lame stream media are generally not paying attention. Digging deep to find the truth is not likely a part of their repertory mosaic. However, more and more people are waking up. Why? It’s partially because the lies are becoming so frequent, one would have to be brain challenged not to catch at least a few of them. For example, do you remember when the tea party people were complaining that there were death panels in the proposed health care bill? Many liberals and many of their media puppets were proclaiming that there was no such thing as death panels in the health care bill. Then on Facebook, Sara Palen complained about the death panels and what happened? The powers that be (the Democrats) took out the “non-existent” death panels! It must have been such an embarrassment to remove something that they claimed didn’t exist to begin with. But it demonstrated that the lies are so frequent that the liars have hardly a moment of shame; they simply proceed to their next lie.

Across the nation, the Arizona immigration law is a personal insult to many people of Hispanic descent. The Los Angeles City Council, in order to make a political statement, voted to boycott the state of Arizona and Arizona-based business. In response to the Los Angeles boycott, the commissioner of Arizona’s electric and water utilities threatened to cut off the electricity supplied to the Los Angeles power grid by Arizona power plants.

The recent Arizona immigration law has been getting a lot of attention, and many experts believe the next battleground for lawmakers may just be California immigration. According to Reuters, Latinos in California, many of which are illegal residents, are stepping forward to protest the Arizona law. Liberals consider tougher immigration laws to be a gateway to human rights violations, while conservatives stand fast in their position that illegal immigration has gone too far. Both groups, however, believe California may just be the next in line to crack down illegal immigrants.
Right from its backyard, California deals with immigration
The UK election result is a hung parliament, as suspected. Though the term may avail itself to juvenile humor, it isn’t funny. The last hung parliament (as a result of a General Election) occurred in 1974, and had to be resolved by a special election eight months later. I’ll be giving a free brush up on what the terms mean, so you won’t have to give me any instant cash to do so. (You can if you want to though.)

Charlie Crist has dropped out of the Republican Party to run as an independent for the U.S. Senate. If anyone were really in a rush to get payday loans to fill his opponents’ coffers they already have, as no one was surprised. (Maybe they will?) Crist has the advantage of a long service record and greater recognition with the voting public in Florida.
