AMEN!Serial KILLER Joe DUNCAN PLEADS GUILTY on all 10 charges!! YEAH!!!

Sex offender Joseph Duncan pleads guilty to killing three in deal with prosecutors!! Thank God Shasta gets spared from trial! The Groene Family thanks U all For your prayers! =^.^= PLEADS GUILTY ON ALL 10 CHARGES!!!!!! ANATOMY OF A PLEA DEAL Defense's Offer Joseph Duncan's lawyer offered in this letter to prosecutors that his client would admit to murder and molestation if the death penalty was taken off the table. The offer was rejected. State's Counter-Offer Prosecutors came back with a list of demands Duncan was to meet if he wanted to avoid trial, including facing the death penalty and not calling Shasta Groene to testify. Plea Deal Announcment Prosecutors announced a plea deal with Joseph Edward Duncan III on Oct. 16, 2006, the same day jury selection was slated to begin in his murder trial. Factual Basis Prosecutors submitted this vivid list of facts in the case to serve as a factual basis for Duncan's guilty plea. SHASTA GROENE FAMILY TRAGEDY •Oct. 16, 2006: Plea deal announced •Oct. 16, 2006: Jury selection canceled •Oct. 12, 2006: Shasta Groene deemed competent to testify •Oct. 6, 2006: Victims' father sues Joseph Duncan to prevent him from profiting off murders •Oct. 3, 2006: Prosecutors to seek death penalty By Emanuella Grinberg Court TV A 9-year-old girl was spared the ordeal of reliving her family's massacre after the man accused in the murders pleaded guilty Monday in a deal with Idaho prosecutors. On the day jury selection was supposed to begin in convicted sex offender Joseph Duncan's death penalty trial, Duncan instead pleaded guilty to three counts of first-degree murder and three counts of kidnapping for the deaths of Brenda Groene, 40, her son Slade, 13, and Brenda's boyfriend Mark McKenzie, 37, in May 2005. As the sole survivor of the attack, Shasta Groene was expected to testify as a key witness for the state. But the plea deal ensures that Shasta will not have to face the man she claims kidnapped and molested her and her 9-year-old brother, Dylan, after the murders. Duncan was arrested in July 2005 at a Denny's restaurant outside Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, where a waitress spotted him with Shasta. Dylan's remains were discovered later at a campsite in Montana. "Because Duncan's guilty pleas cannot be withdrawn, Shasta will never be required to relive the events of 2005 in a courtroom," Kootenai County Prosecuting Attorney William Douglas said in a press release. "This case has left deep scars, and hopefully, this agreement will bring justice and closure to our community." In an agreement reached over the weekend, Duncan, 43, will receive three consecutive life sentences on the kidnapping charges, which stem from the manner in which Duncan detained the victims before their deaths. His sentencing on the murder charges has been delayed until the completion of his case in federal court for crimes that allegedly occurred against Shasta and Dylan Groene after they were kidnapped from the family's home. Duncan could still face the death penalty when he is formally indicted in federal court. Duncan's federal public defender, Roger Peven, told CourtTVnews.com that he expects an indictment later this week. As part of the agreement, Douglas also entered into the record a factual basis for the plea detailing the bloody crime scene that authorities discovered on May 16, 2005. "Slade was face down, dressed only in underwear. His head lay at the feet of his mother, Brenda," Douglas wrote. "His bludgeoned head lay in a blood pool." Both Brenda and Slade Groene were found lying face-down with their hands bound behind them with zip-ties. Brenda's feet were also bound with duct tape. "Beneath her head was a blanket saturated with blood and other skull matter," Douglas wrote. Mark McKenzie was also bound at the wrists and ankles with zip-ties. All three victims died from multiple blunt traumas to their heads. According to the document, Shasta told police that Duncan tied her up, tied up her 9-year-old brother, Dylan, and brought them outside, where she could hear McKenzie yelling in pain. She said she saw Slade walking around "acting injured." She said Duncan told her he had been staking out the family's home for at least two days before he launched his attack with the goal of abducting the two younger children. After Duncan's arrest, police seized several items from his rented Jeep Cherokee, including McKenzie's wallet, a bag of zip-ties, a sawed-off shotgun, handwritten letters signed Dylan and Shasta, a digital camera and a laptop. Douglas' agreement also requires that Duncan provide authorities with the encryption code to access secure files on the computer. "We're satisfied with the negotiated settlement that was reached on Mr. Duncan's behalf," Duncan's public defender, John Adams, told CourtTVnews.com. ~~Check out site 4 pics www.courttv.com/trials/duncan/101606_plea_ctv.html =^.^= ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)

Sen. LARRY CRAIG: ITS RAINING MEN! What do Larry & Ted Haggard have in common? SAME GAY HOOKER!OMG!

: 8 Men Claim Encounters With Craig BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Eight men say they either had sex with Sen. Larry Craig or were targets of sexual advances by the Idaho lawmaker at various times during his political career, a newspaper reported. One of the men is the former escort whose allegations disgraced the Rev. Ted Haggard, former president of the National Association of Evangelicals, the Idaho Statesman reported Sunday. The newspaper identified four men and reported details of the encounters they say involved Craig. It also reported the accounts of four other men who did not agree to be identified but who described sexual advances or encounters involving the conservative Republican, who opposes same-sex marriage and has a strong record against gay rights. Craig pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after being accused by an undercover officer of soliciting sex at the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport and later called a news conference to deny that he is gay. The newspaper acknowledged that its report was not based on definitive evidence but said it also found no evidence to disprove the accounts of the four identified men. It said it reviewed the senator's travel records, which put him where the sex is alleged to have taken place, and did background checks on those making the allegations. Craig and members of his staff declined to comment to the newspaper. But in a statement e-mailed to The Associated Press on Sunday, the senator said the newspaper's report was "completely false" and he accused the paper of careless journalism. "It is unfortunate that the Idaho Statesman has chosen to continue to lower itself to the standards of what can best be described as tabloid journalism," Craig said in the statement. "Despite the fact the Idaho Statesman has decided to pursue its own agenda and print these falsehoods without any facts to back them up, I won't let this paper's attempt to malign my name stop me from continuing my work to serve the people of Idaho." The report is the Statesman's latest on allegations about Craig's sexual background since his June arrest in an airport men's room sex sting operation was reported in late August. Statesman Editor Vicki Gowler said the newspaper spent several months checking the backgrounds and details of the men's stories. "We believe it's important for you to know what we've learned and to hear the men's own words," Gowler said. Two of the identified men and one of the unidentified men told the newspaper they had sex with Craig. One of the men identified in the report, Mike Jones, 50, described as a former male escort, was the focus of the sex scandal involving Haggard, the disgraced leader of Colorado's New Life Church. Jones said Craig paid him $200 for sex in late 2004 or early 2005. The encounter took place at a studio apartment in downtown Denver, Jones said. Jones told the Statesman that he did not recognize Craig until his arrest made the news. The newspaper reported that Jones went on the record after Craig appeared in a television news report in August to address the arrest and his future in politics. Jones has written a book about his experience with Haggard and acknowledged to the Statesman that his allegation about Craig might help sales. A message left for Jones by The Associated Press through his publisher Sunday evening was not immediately returned. Current phone numbers could not be found for the three other men identified in the Statesman's report. Amid pressure from top GOP leaders in Washington, Craig announced his intent to resign from the Senate. He later changed his mind, deciding to finish out his term, which expires in January 2009. He is also appealing in Minnesota courts to have his guilty plea overturned. The undercover police officer who arrested Craig said the senator moved his foot next to the officer's foot and tapped it in a way that indicated he wanted sex. He also alleged the senator sent a signal by swiping his hand under the divider between men's room stalls. Craig has said the officer misconstrued those motions. =^.^= PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)

VETERANS DAY THOUGHTS 2007

ONE IN FOUR? On this Veterans Day, some news That should make us all ashamed And there's plenty to go around To all those who should be blamed. Though, it's really not, new news The bad way, we treat our Vets In this Land, that they keep Free That's about as low as it gets. We should have NO homeless In this richest Land on Earth But especially not, those who served Like they have outlived, their worth. That's the way some are treated Once, they put away their gun They serve and fight in our Wars Then, cast aside when War is done. Today, we are still at War But many Heroes who just fought Are already living on the street And we don't give it a second thought. Shame on us, America To treat our Vets this way Shame on our so-called leaders Whose folks, aren't those who pay. “Heroes”, when we need them “Homeless”, much too soon A little help, is all they need They're not asking for the Moon. Giving them, what we promised And to fulfill, our obligation For when we don't keep our word It leaves a blight upon our Nation. A Hero is still a Hero Whether in uniform or not And between us and oppression These Heroes are all we've got. Service should be mandatory For each American citizen With no excuses, pay their debt For living in this great Nation. If all the rich and powerful Had to send their young to serve You can bet, most every Vet Would get, all that they deserve. So, when you see those homeless Just know, that one in four Served our Nation Honorably And we owe them so much more. Del “Abe” Jones 10.10.2007 THROWAWAY SOLDIERS With the one hand they seem to give And with the other, take away “We always will support our Troops!” But, they don’t do what they say. They promise all those benefits As you Raise your hand and Swear To Do Your Duty, Serve Your Country Anytime, and Anywhere. You keep your end of the Bargain And Follow Orders to a tee Even lay your Life on the Line So that others might be Free. You don’t ask for a whole lot Just to be treated with Respect Promises kept and Honesty From those People you Protect. But, too often those in Power Will Betray you without Shame Break those Vows they made Like it was only just a Game. It’s called, “Throwaway Soldiers” And the Vets will always lose Because you Play by the Rules While they will Play as they chose. Del “Abe” Jones VETERAN'S DAY, 2007 Another year we've been at War And a record year, of Heroes killed Will our hopes for an end to it Never, ever be fulfilled? The cost has been tremendous And surely, they don't tell us all Worse, loss of life and mind and limb As our Troops, continue to fall. Some, deployed several times More, than we should rightly ask But, they will go and do their Duty To carry out, their given task. Nearly four thousand gave their all Almost thirty thousand hurt Who tried to bring some civility To that far-a-way, ancient, desert. Many folks are against the War And there's some who do protest But one thing most all, agree on Our Military, is the very best. Let's not forget families and loved ones All, who serve our Country, too Who sacrifice and suffer for us With Patriotism, proud and true. Some of them will lose their Heroes And will hurt and cry and grieve And when handed that folded Flag They will say, "I still believe!" Maybe, "Mission accomplished!" One day, will actually be true But, till then, we must support them And tell them, "Thanks, for all you do!" And we must remember all those Who served our Country in the past To make our Nation Free And to make sure it will last. Del "Abe" Jones 11.06.2007 NOVEMBER 11TH There are so many little towns That make up this great nation And the heroes from them Boggle the imagination. Those who answer the call In peace and wartime's strife Who give of themselves So, we can live this life. Some go and fight those wars Some die, some hurt, survive But all that they believe in Is what keeps freedom alive. It is all those little towns And people who live there Who stand and fight for freedom For people, everywhere. Somebodys dad or brother Husband, daughter or son Mother, sister, cousins We all, know someone. Who, when freedom was threatened Here at home, around the world Were determined to insure Freedoms flag remained unfurled. They believe and fight for The things this world needs They might not always win But they will have planted seeds. In time of peace or conflict There is always a price to pay And today, we pay them tribute On this Veterans Day.VETERANS DAY 2002 Well, here we are, once again With Veterans, in heart and mind Still trying to heal, from 9/11 Facing Saddam, and his kind. With a new War, looming And the one that we now fight Our Soldiers and our Nation Willing , to do whats right. Its not something, we want But, something, that we must As long as we, all believe Our cause, is true and just.

OUR AMERICAN FLAG : WHY ITS FOLDED 13 TIMES.... HAPPY VETERANS DAY

FLAG: Why is it folded 13 times? In the armed forces of the United States, at the ceremony of the retreat, the flag lowered, folded in a triangle fold and kept under watch throughout the night as a tribute to our nation's honored dead. The next morning it is brought out, and at the ceremony of reveille, run aloft as a symbol of our belief in the resurrection of the body. 1. The first fold of our flag is a symbol of life. 2. The second fold is a symbol of our belief in eternal life. 3. The third fold is made in honor and remembrance of the veterans departing our ranks who gave a portion of their lives for the defense of our country to attain peace throughout the world. 4. The fourth fold represents our weaker nature, for as American citizens trusting in God, it is to Him we turn in times of peace as well as in time of war for His divine guidance. 5. The fifth fold is a tribute to our country, for in the words of Stephen Decatur, "Our Country, in dealing with other countries, may she always be right; but it is still our country, right or wrong." 6. The sixth fold is for where our hearts lie. It is with our heart that we pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. 7. The seventh fold is a tribute to our Armed Forces, for it is through the Armed Forces that we protect our country and our flag against all her enemies, whether they be found within or without the boundaries of our republic. 8. The eighth fold is a tribute to the one who entered into the valley of the shadow of death, that we might see the light of day, and to honor mother, for whom it flies on Mother's Day. 9. The ninth fold is a tribute to womanhood; for it has been through their faith, their love, loyalty and devotion that the character of the men and women who have made this country great has been molded. 10. The 10th fold is a tribute to the father, for he, too, has given his sons and daughters for the defense of our country since they were first born. 11. The 11th fold, in the eyes of a Hebrew citizen represents the lower portion of the seal of King David and King Solomon, and glorifies in their eyes, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. 12. The 12th fold, in the eyes of a Christian citizen, represents an emblem of eternity and glorifies, in their eyes, God the Father, the Son and Holy Spirit. When the flag is completely folded, the stars are uppermost reminding us of our nation's motto, "In God We Trust." After the flag is completely folded and tucked in, it takes on the appearance of a cocked hat, ever reminding us of the soldiers who served under General George Washington, and the sailors and marines who served under Captain John Paul Jones, who were followed by their comrades and shipmates in the Armed Forces of the United States, preserving for us the rights, privileges and freedoms we enjoy today. According to a veteran group, the meaning of the folding of the flag is not in the Federal Flag Code. The code does not call for a ceremonial folding of the flag and the folding procedure was traditional. Same for the meanings of the folds. Nobody seems to know when or where that originated or who wrote it. Official or not, the statement has gained status as the traditional meaning of the folds and was found in many governmental and military manuals and even today is recited at numerous military funerals. PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)

SERIAL KILLER Joe DUNCAN gets "DREAM TEAM", I say Die,Duncan,Die!

Duncan gets legal help from "one-woman Dream Team" By JOHN MILLER The Associated Press BOISE, Idaho A death-penalty specialist who once represented Unabomber Ted Kaczynski has joined lawyers already defending convicted triple-murderer Joseph E. Duncan in his January 2008 federal trial. Judy Clarke, former director of the Federal Defenders of Eastern Washington and Idaho, helped keep Kaczynski, Olympics bomber Eric Rudolph and Susan Smith, convicted of killing her two children in a South Carolina lake, off death row. Clarke filed paperwork in U.S. District Court in Idaho on Friday asking that all documents in Duncan's case be sent to her. She left her post at the Spokane-based nonprofit federal defender organization in 2002 after accepting a newly created position as a roving federal defender specializing in death penalty cases. Duncan has already pleaded guilty in Idaho state court to killing members of the Groene family at their Coeur d'Alene area home in May 2005, so that he could kidnap two children for sex. Brenda Groene; her fiancé, Mark McKenzie, and her 13-year-old son, Slade Groene, were fatally bludgeoned with a hammer. In his upcoming federal death-penalty case, Duncan is accused of kidnapping Brenda Groene's two youngest children and later killing one of them. Prosecutors say Dylan Groene, 9, was killed at a remote Montana campsite. Shasta Groene, 8, was rescued weeks later and was the attack's lone survivor. The federal case concentrates on events that occurred in Montana after Shasta and Dylan Groene were abducted. Clarke didn't immediately return a phone message left at her office in California today. Roger Peven, who succeeded Clark, also didn't return phone calls. U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge has ordered those involved in the case not to speak publicly about the proceedings. Colleagues described Clarke as a "one-woman Dream Team" after she helped defend Susan Smith, the South Carolina mom who avoided a death sentence after being convicted of drowning her two little boys in the mid-1990s. Clarke also helped Kaczynski avoid a death sentence for his deadly decade-spanning letter-bomb spree. Two years ago, she helped spare Rudolph's life when he pleaded guilty to the deadly 1996 Olympic park bombing in Atlanta, a fatal 1998 abortion clinic blast in Birmingham, Ala., and two other bombings in Atlanta in 1997. In October 2006, Duncan pleaded guilty in Idaho's 1st District Court to first-degree murder and kidnapping for the three slayings at the family's home. A state judge sentenced Duncan to life in prison without parole for the kidnappings, but sentencing on the murder counts was deferred while the federal government prepared its charges. Depending on what happens in the federal case, Duncan could still face the death penalty in state court. Duncan has also been charged in a California court in the 1997 slaying of Anthony Martinez, 10, in California. Prosecutors there have said they also intend to seek the death penalty. He's also a suspect in two 1996 killings in Washington state. ~~~~~ =^.^= I am sick 2 my stomach over this bee-otch trying to save some scumbum like this after what he did here, and apparently other states.And you may say and roll your eyes that everyone deserves a fair trial.DUNCAN MUST DIE.Plain and simple.Just a side note sweet Shasta is doing well (as can be) and thriving DISPITE the fact DUNCAN killed her whole friggin family. Lets all pray this is the lawyers BIGGEST LOSS EVER! =^.^= ~~~ PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)

Father of soldier charged w/ murder speaks UP!

Father of soldier charged with murder says son did nothing wrong The Associated Press Article Last Updated: 09/28/2007 01:58:49 PM MDT IDAHO FALLS, Idaho - Curtis Carnahan is convinced his son did nothing wrong. He's also certain the horror of war is to blame for the legal troubles facing Sgt. Evan Vela, a U.S. Army sniper who was serving in Iraq. Military officials don't see it the same way. This summer, Vela and two other soldiers were charged with crimes related to the April and May shooting deaths of unarmed Iraqi men and subsequent efforts to cover it up. On Friday, a military panel acquitted U.S. Army Spc. Jorge G. Sandoval on charges he killed two unarmed Iraqis, but it convicted him of planting evidence on one of the men in attempt to cover justify the actions. Army lawyers say Vela took part in the May shooting, placed a weapon on the man's remains, made false statements to investigators and obstructed justice. Vela testified in Sandoval's trial in Baghdad this week, but will be tried separately. Carnahan, 44, said it's unbelievable his son could be charged with such crimes during a war. "If we're going to start prosecuting our soldiers for this type of thing, we might as well just roll the whole show up," Carnahan told the Post-Register before leaving this week for Iraq, where he intends to testify in his son's upcoming preliminary hearing. "It's absolutely wrong to Advertisement prosecute soldiers who are in combat," he said. Vela, 23, a native of St. Anthony and graduate of Rigby High School, is a sniper with the Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 1st Battalion, 501st Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade (Airborne), 25th Infantry Division, based at Fort Richardson, Alaska. Before his deployment to Iraq, Vela lived with his wife, Alyssa Vela, and two children in Anchorage, Alaska. The investigation into the shootings began when two soldiers complained that members of their unit were planting weapons on targets to make the killings appear legitimate. Testimony at preliminary hearings has attempted to discredit the motivation of those soldiers. Lawyers hired by Carnahan argued in court documents this week that some of the snipers in Vela's unit were aware of a classified program that allows sharpshooters to bait targets with suspicious items, such as detonation wire, before firing. Defense lawyer Gary Myers said Vela was simply following orders, doing his job as he was told to do it. An Army spokesman declined to comment on the program, but said there are no classified methods that authorize the killing of Iraqi nationals or use planted weapons to justify the deaths. The financial and emotional price of defending his son is taking a toll, Carnahan said. The retainer to hire Myers exceeded Carnahan's annual salary working for a printing company in Idaho Falls. Carnahan said he has taken out a second mortgage on his home. Friends also have set up a trust fund at a local bank to handle donations for Vela's legal defense. Carnahan acknowledges the legal odds appear stacked against his son, but he's not ready to give up. "One of his biggest concerns is he wanted to know if he could stay in the Army when this is over with, which I think speaks very highly of his character and his desire to continue with the military," Carnahan said.

Our BELOVED,BRAVE WARRIORS deserve sooooo much more than this.....

Wounded Vets Also Suffer Financial Woes By JEFF DONN and KIMBERLY HEFLING Associated Press writers Wounded Soldiers: the Price of War TEMECULA, Calif. (AP) -- He was one of America's first defenders on Sept. 11, 2001, a Marine who pulled burned bodies from the ruins of the Pentagon. He saw more horrors in Kuwait and Iraq. Today, he can't keep a job, pay his bills, or chase thoughts of suicide from his tortured brain. In a few weeks, he may lose his house, too. Gamal Awad, the American son of a Sudanese immigrant, exemplifies an emerging group of war veterans: the economic casualties. More than in past wars, many wounded troops are coming home alive from the Middle East. That's a triumph for military medicine. But they often return hobbled by prolonged physical and mental injuries from homemade bombs and the unremitting anxiety of fighting a hidden enemy along blurred battle lines. Treatment, recovery and retraining often can't be assured quickly or cheaply. These troops are just starting to seek help in large numbers, more than 185,000 so far. But the cost of their benefits is already testing resources set aside by government and threatening the future of these wounded veterans for decades to come, say economists and veterans' groups. "The wounded and their families no longer trust that the government will take care of them the way they thought they'd be taken care of," says veterans advocate Mary Ellen Salzano. How does a war veteran expect to be treated? "As a hero," she says. --- Every morning, Awad needs to think of a reason not to kill himself. He can't even look at the framed photograph that shows him accepting a Marine heroism medal for his recovery work at the Pentagon after the terrorist attack. It might remind him of a burned woman whose skin peeled off in his hands when he tried to comfort her. He tries not to hear the shrieking rockets of Iraq either, smell the burning fuel, or relive the blast that blew him right out of bed. The memories come steamrolling back anyway. "Nothing can turn off those things," he says, voice choked and eyes glistening. He stews alternately over suicide and finances, his $43,000 in credit card debt, his $4,330 in federal checks each month - the government's compensation for his total disability from post-traumatic stress disorder. His flashbacks, thoughts of suicide, and anxiety over imagined threats - all documented for six years in his military record - keep him from working. The disability payments don't cover the $5,700-a-month cost of his adjustable home mortgage and equity loans. He owes more on his house than its market value, so he can't sell it - but he may soon lose it to the bank. "I love this house. It makes me feel safe," he says. Awad could once afford it. He used to earn $100,000 a year as a 16-year veteran major with a master's degree in management who excelled at logistics. Now, at age 38, he can't even manage his own life. There's another twist. This dedicated Marine was given a "general" discharge 15 months ago for an extramarital affair with a woman, also a Marine. That's even though his military therapists blamed this impulsive conduct on post-traumatic stress aggravated by his Middle East tours. Luckily, his discharge, though not unqualifiedly honorable, left intact his rights to medical care and disability payments - or he'd be in sadder shape. Divorced since developing PTSD, Awad has two daughters who live elsewhere. He spends much of his days hoisting weights and thwacking a punching bag in the dimness of his garage. He passes nights largely sleepless, a zombie shuffling through the bare rooms of his home in sunny California wine country. --- Few anticipated the high price of caring for Awad and other veterans with deep, slow-healing wounds. Afghanistan seemed quiet and Saddam Hussein still ruled Iraq one year after the Sept. 11 attacks. That's when the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs guaranteed two years of free care to returning combat veterans for virtually any medical condition with a possible service link. Later, few predicted such a protracted war in Iraq. "A lot of people based their planning on low numbers of casualties in a very short war," says Paul Rieckhoff, an Army combat veteran who founded Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. Also, Iraqi insurgents have relied on disfiguring bombs and bombardment as chief tactics. At the same time, better armor and field medicine have kept U.S. soldiers alive at the highest rate ever, leaving 16 wounded for every fatality, according to one study based on government data. The ratio was fewer than 3-to-1 for Korea and Vietnam. On the flip side, many are returning with multiple amputations or other disabling injuries not completely fixed even by fancy prosthetics, methodical rehabilitation, and job retraining. The Pentagon counts more than 29,000 combat wounded in the Middle East since the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington. Tens of thousands more were hurt outside of combat or in ways that show up later. There was no mistaking the wounds of Cambodian-American Sgt. Pisey Tan. Eight months into his second tour in Iraq, a makeshift bomb blasted his armored vehicle and took both his legs. Still, Tan has needed to rely on private donations and family, as well as the government. The government treated him and paid for his artificial legs. But his brother, Dada, left college to live with him at a military hospital for almost a year. Later, his brother carried him piggyback up and down the stairs at home as Tan got used to his prosthetics. "That's how our family is," says the Woodlyn, Pa., veteran. "We always take care of our own." The government says it does too, and with some truth. Of 1.4 million U.S. forces deployed for Iraq and Afghanistan, more than 185,000 have sought care from the VA - a number that could easily top 700,000 eventually, predicts one academic analysis. The VA has already treated more than 52,000 for PTSD symptoms alone, a presidential commission finds. Veteran John Waltz, of Hebron, Ky., blames his post-traumatic stress disorder on his rescue work at a plane crash aboard a carrier bound for an Iraqi tour. While his condition and disability claim were evaluated, he ran up about $12,000 worth of medical bills, he says. Despite Social Security and his wife's work, the couple's yearly income was cut in half to $30,000. "We have to be really frugal, as far as what groceries we buy," Waltz says. "I think we're down to just a couple dollars now, until the next time we get paid." On a national scale, the costs of caring for the wounded certainly won't crush the $13 trillion annual American economy. It probably won't bankrupt the VA, which already treats more than 5.5 million patients each year. But the price tag will challenge budgets of governments and service agencies, adding another hungry mouth within their nests. Economic forecasts vary widely for the federal costs of caring for injured veterans returning from the Middle East, but they range as high as $700 billion for the VA. That would rival the cost of fighting the Iraq war. In recent years, the VA has repeatedly run out of money to care for sick veterans and has had to ask for billions more before the next budget. "I wouldn't be surprised if these costs per person are higher than any war previously," says Scott Wallsten, of the conservative think tank Progress and Freedom Foundation. The costs often fall on veterans and their families. Ted Wade, of Chapel Hill, N.C., can't drive or keep his memories straight since a bomb tore off an arm, hurt his foot, and wracked his brain in an attack on his Humvee in Iraq. He and his wife have had to lower their living standard and accept house payments from parents. "I can't work because he can't be up here by himself," says his wife, Sarah. "It's my volunteer work, is what it really comes down to." Yet federal officials say the cost of this wounded influx isn't hurting the quality of care promised to veterans. At a recent ribbon cutting, the Army's vice chief of staff, Gen. Richard Cody, trumpeted a new rehab center for amputees as "proof that when it comes to making good on such an important promise, there is no bottom line." Since President Bush took office, medical spending for veterans has risen by 83 percent, says White House budget spokesman Sean Kevelighan. However, that includes the increased numbers of all veterans treated - not just the wave returning from the Middle East. "The president has made his dedication very clear to troops in the field and after," the spokesman said. The VA didn't respond to several requests for comment. Recently, though, outgoing chief Jim Nicholson acknowledged trouble keeping up with the pace of disability claims. But earlier this year, he also insisted that veterans "will invariably tell you they are really getting good care from the VA." --- Not invariably. The VA takes the lead in treating wounds and paying for disabilities of veterans. And it usually does a good job of handling major, known wounds, especially in the early months, by many accounts. The military, Social Security Administration, Labor Department and other agencies add important federal benefits. However, many veterans and families say the VA often restricts rehabilitation or cuts it off too quickly. Former Army Ranger Jeremy Feldbusch, of Blairsville, Pa., was blinded and brain-injured by artillery shrapnel in Iraq, but he and his mother decided to get some care outside the VA. His mother, Charlene, says some specialists, especially brain experts, are better in the private sector. Insurance for major injuries is available at low cost to service members. It pays out up to $100,000 to help cover costs of rehabilitation. But many think it isn't enough. In Odessa, Fla., the family of John Barnes decided to save most of his $100,000 payout. They could easily have spent more of it. His mother, Valerie Wallace, estimates her expenses at more than $35,000 to help care for him while he deals with a brain injury and paralysis from a mortar attack on a base outside Baghdad. She took time off from her nursing job, paid $17 an hour for a home health aide, and transported her son to countless rounds of therapy. Still, she wanted to preserve his insurance money. "John's going to need that money down the road," she says. Instead, she stopped saving, closed out investments, and borrowed against her own insurance. Disability payments supply monthly income to the wounded, but the VA focuses on replacing lost earnings. A presidential commission has recommended broader compensation for lost quality of life - a concept in line with civilian law. Co-chair Donna Shalala, a former U.S. secretary of Health and Human Services, estimates that the committee's package of recommendations would cost at least several hundred million dollars. In Oceanside, Calif., Joshua Elmore, says his $1,200-a-month disability payments aren't "even coming close" to replacing what he's lost. A rocket attack on a Marine base in Iraq shattered his arm bones and left other injuries. He can still do yard work, odd jobs, and go to culinary school. But Elmore, who has two little girls, complains that he can't run and sometimes limps when he walks. Some wounded veterans turn to private health insurance and other programs outside the federal government, swelling costs for states and towns. Sean Lunde, an Iraq veteran at the Massachusetts Department of Veterans' Services, says his agency rushes emergency funds to some wounded veterans. Service nonprofits also pay for emergency shelter, housing, job training, food, clothing and transportation for wounded veterans who risk slipping into coverage gaps. T.J. Cantwell, of Rebuilding Together, says his group puts an average of $20,000 - plus donated supplies and labor - into houses it modifies for injured soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan. In Rosedale, Md., the group added handrails, new light switches and door knobs, a garage door opener, and other improvements to the home of Army Sgt. 1st Class Juanita Wilson. The 33-year-old mother of two lost part of her arm in a homemade bomb blast in Iraq, but she remains on active duty to preserve her retirement. Meanwhile, she says of the remodeling job, "If I had to pay for it, probably very little would be done." Despite all this help, many families drop tens of thousands of dollars on travel to hospitals, stays in hotel rooms, extra therapies, and on making their homes and vehicles accessible to the disabled. Intent on the best care, parents sometimes quit jobs and lose their own health insurance. Denise Mettie, of Selah, Wash., and her husband have been living "paycheck to paycheck" while she helps in the recovery of her son, Evan. A car bomb in Iraq propelled shrapnel into his brain, and he can no longer walk or talk. His mother gave up her $30,000-a-year bank job and had to buy health insurance for herself and her two daughters, just to watch over her son's hospital treatment, she says. "What the VA has to offer is insufficient economically to take care of the impact of what happens," says psychologist Michael Wagner, founder of the nonprofit U.S. Welcome Home Foundation and a retired Army medical officer. Veterans groups finally sued the VA a few months ago, seeking quicker medical care and disability payments for those with PTSD. They claim that the crush of shattered troops has sent the agency into a "virtual meltdown." Last week, the VA challenged the lawsuit on technical grounds. Its lawyers also argued that even though VA rules commit to two years of free care, that depends upon Congress setting aside enough money. --- Upset by his visits with wounded veterans, defense hawk Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., who chairs a defense spending subcommittee, dropped his support for the Iraq war in 2005. Speaking of the wounded, he now says federal officials are "not taking care of the things they should and ... we're trying to change the direction." Many recommendations have come from veterans, federal advisers and others. Some involve quicker and heftier disability benefits. And nearly everyone begs for more VA money and staff for medical treatment, though few specify where they'd find extra resources. Rep. Chris Carney, D-Pa., a military reservist, is promoting a bill to set mandatory annual spending levels for veterans' health care. Prospects are unclear. Either way, it may be too late for veterans like Awad, who nervously awaits the approach of imagined enemies around what was once his castle.

PAPPY BOYINGTON GETS HIS RESPECT HERE!

http://www.cdapress.com/articles/2007/09/23/news/news02.txt Flyover welcomes Boyington name to Cd'A airport ceremony =Hey! Just got back from one of thee most awesome events EVER! Ourn town finaly caved and allowed the small field a native Sons Proud American Kick ass Marine name.Showing respect 4 Pappy and our families right ow. I will post pics of the event asap (when film comes in!LOL) and hope you all remembver pappy' and I KNOW most of us grew up watching BaaBaaBlack Sheep atring Robert Conrad! grrrlll....So take pride our Marines showed from 18-100! I mcantn wait 4 pics! I had such and awesome time hanging w/ some heros that I a m still high! And it maybe to the Jets! Man, I love the military and was soooo proud to hang w/the past and future of the Marines! HOOO-RAH! =^.^= The family of Gregory "Pappy" Boyington was in town Saturday to celebrate the renaming of the Coeur d'Alene Air Terminal to Coeur d'Alene Airport/Pappy Boyington Field. From left: June Colgan of Alameda, Calif. (Gregory Jr's girlfriend), Gregory Boyington Jr. of Oakland, Calif. (son), Amanda Boyington of Newbury Park, Calif. (middle granddaughter), Tiffany Boyington Bailey of Arbuckle, Calif. (firstborn granddaughter), Gregory Boyington III of Alameda, Calif. (youngest grandson). COEUR d'ALENE -- Airplanes landing on the tarmac of the Coeur d'Alene Airport will now touch down on the freshly christened Pappy Boyington Field. A ceremony to rename the airport after World War II fighter ace Gregory "Pappy" Boyington, was held Saturday at the airfield. Two Marine pilots stationed in Yuma, Ariz., treated Boyington's son, Gregory Boyington Jr., and a crowd of about 300 people, including guest speakers U.S. Rep. Bill Sali and Kootenai County Commissioners Rich Piazza and Todd Tondee, to a flyover before the start of the ceremony. Several members of the Boyington family traveled from their homes in California to attend. "This proves they never leave their men behind. Semper Fi," Boyington Jr. said addressing the Pappy Boyington Detachment 966 of the Marine Corps League. "It's quite an honor to have something named after your father, and it's magnificent for the family, but I think it's a symbol, too," he said. It was a sentiment echoed by Sali, who agreed that renaming the airfield was "holding (Boyington) up as a person who is deserving of esteem." But the new name represents more than the heroism of one ace pilot, "It represents that those who fought with him are also deserving of esteem," he said. The Kootenai County Board of County Commissioners voted in August to rename the airport, prompted in large part by the Pappy Boyington Detachment 966 of the Marine Corps League, many of whom attended the ceremony. The detachment spurred the movement to rename the field because of Boyington's extensive war record. Boyington was born in Coeur d'Alene in 1912, but did not grow up in the area, as he moved to Tacoma while he was still young. A daring pilot, Boyington earned many distinctions during his service. He was awarded the Medal of Honor for leading a formation of 24 Corsairs over an enemy base on Kahili Island. Circling the base, his pilots lured 60 enemy planes into the sky, which were all destroyed in the ensuing battle without a single allied casualty. He was also awarded the Navy Cross and the World War II Victory Medal, as well as the Prisoner of War Medal, for spending 20 months in an Japanese prison camp. "He always wanted to come back here," Boyington Jr. said. "He just never got a chance. The clock ran out." Boyington died in Fresno at the age of 76. "He was a great hero," Piazza said. "He worked hard and fought hard, and did a great duty for our country." Piazza said he hopes the new name bestowed upon the airfield will prompt future generations to look to history books for Boyington and other war heroes.

DOG CHAPMAN OTTA THE MEXICAN DOHOUSE!!! HELL YEAH!

Judge wants to close Dog Chapman case But prosecutors for Mexican state of Jalisco are appealing UPDATE! : 1:32 p.m. PT Aug 2, 2007 PUERTO VALLARTA, Mexico - A Mexican judge has ruled to close the criminal case against U.S. bounty hunter and TV reality star Duane “Dog” Chapman, but state prosecutors have appealed the decision, officials said Thursday. In the July 27 ruling, Judge Jose Alberto Montes said the statute of limitations has expired on the case, said Guillermo Diaz, assistant prosecutor for the state of Jalisco, where Puerto Vallarta is located. Chapman was arrested in September by U.S. authorities on a Mexican warrant stemming from his 2003 capture of fugitive convicted rapist and Max Factor cosmetics heir Andrew Luster in Puerto Vallarta. Bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico. State prosecutors, however, want to continue pursuing Mexico’s request to have Chapman extradited, Diaz said. The courts are expected to rule on prosecutors’ appeal in coming months. Chapman, who stars in the A&E television Hawaii-based show “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” expressed relief at Montes’ decision during a book signing event Wednesday night. “The weight has been lifted off my chest,” he said. “Viva la Mexico!” ~~Dog is a great American, he cares about women children and the meth epademic in beautiful Hawaii, he deserves our support along w/ his bro Tim,son Leyland for their smackdown on scumbags. I send much strenght,wisdam,prayers and love to him and family.No not many people put their ass on line to get a rapist billionaire off not only Mexoco and America.He f'd up in younger years, but he is 53 and knows we need his hard ass approuch to the Meth problem in Hawaii and that pig serial rapist that drug him to Mexico.They should be happy in Mexico that he wasnt raping Mexican ladies,yet the whole 'BORDER' thing and illegal status made them see red and want to take him down.KITTEN stands Bhind Dog and his bro Tim and son Leyland and knew this was WRONG! Pray w/ me and send wisdom and strenghth that Mexico gets their shit in order to totaly drop this. Luster was raping Mexicans (thanks 2 payoffs 2 Mexicans corrupt gov) and get that scumbag apprehended! LONG LIVE THE DOG AND CREW!!!!!! =^.^=

One of My LOCAL GREAT AMERICAN UNSUNG HEROS!VERNON BAKER!

~~~~~This weeek Vernon Baker recieved a commemorative flag and another citation.His story is great and it is sad his skin color keep him from his much deserved service and sacrife to our great Country.Please GOOOGLE his name to pull up more of his story,He kicked ASS! A very cool great patriot whom I am honored to know,and wanted to share w/ you great Americans! Enjoy and let your heart sing!! =^.^= ~~~~~~~~~~~ World War II Congressional Medal of Honor Recipient First Lieutenant Vernon J. Baker, US Army President Bill Clinton congratulating Medal of Honor Recipient Vernon Baker in the White House East Room January 13 The only living African American World War II hero to receive the Medal of Honor And First Lieutenant Vernon Baker, who killed nine Germans in a pre-dawn battle at an enemy stronghold. With two-thirds of his company wounded or dead and no reinforcements in sight, Baker's commander ordered a withdrawal. Breaking into tears, Baker protested, "Captain, we can't withdraw. We must stay here and fight it out." More than 50 years after World War II ended, seven African American soldiers were awarded a congressional medal of honor. Only one of them is alive to tell his story, Vernon Baker, of northern Idaho. The first time I walked into the recruiting office, there was a sergeant sitting behind the desk. He asked me what I wanted and I said I would like to enlist in the army. And he said, "well, we don't have any quotas for you people." With that he went back to what he was doing, writing something on his desk, you know dismissed me as if I was a little mouse or something. And it made me very angry and when I walked out the door I swore I wasn't coming back, I wouldn't do that anymore. But as things went on, I wasn't working. I didn't have a job. I was living with my sister and it kind of rankled me that I needed to support myself. So, I swallowed my pride and I went back to the recruiting office. And this time, there was a different soldier sitting behind the desk and he asked me if he could help me. And I said, "yes, I'd like to enlist in the army." And he said, "well come right in and sit down." and I ended up at Camp Waters, Texas, in the infantry. We were in a segregated platoon in a white company, OCS class number 148. And it was the same old thing. We were in separate barracks, separated from everybody, except when we went to class. That was normal for us, that's the way it always had been. And being a black man, you had to accept it. In 1944, second lieutenant Vernon J. Baker was sent to Italy with a full platoon of 54 men. On April 5 he and his men found themselves behind enemy lines. We were briefed that there was a push coming up. But we didn't know what part we would play in it until the night of the third of April. All the officers and the N.C.O.'s were called together by Captain Runyan. And we were told our mission was to go up hill X and take castle Aghinolfi which was about three miles behind enemy lines. We got three quarters of the way up to the castle. That's when I had 25 men going up the hill and came back with seven. And in the process of going up, we cut quite a few communications lines which let us get through because they didn't know we were there. And when they did find out we were there, they cut us to pieces. And we were quite a few yards behind enemy lines. We were right in the middle of them. I can recall talking to my company commander. We were in sight of the castle. We were sitting on one side of the draw, talking about how to get down the draw, take the company up there so we could go get up to neutralize the castle. And the German came out and threw a hand grenade and I shot him. And fortunately the hand grenade didn't explode. My company commander took off and went into a house and I went down and I found two more dug outs and threw grenades in them and fired some rounds and killed some more soldiers. And then I came back up to where my company commander was. And at the end, just as I got back to him, we began to get into another fight with machine gun and mortars falling all around. Baker and his platoon had killed 26 Germans, destroyed 6 machine gun nests, 2 observer posts and 4 dugouts. Baker earned a distinguished service cross, only one of nine African Americans so honored in World War II. Eventually Baker retired to northern Idaho. Then one day he received a call telling him he was to receive a Congressional Medal of Honor. At first he was astonished. Then he was angry. Because it was something that I felt should have been done a long time ago. If I was worthy of receiving the Medal of Honor in 1945, I should have received it then. I like to be right and I know in my heart that we were right. And we were a heck of a lot better than the people that ran us down thought we were. It means that every black solider that fought in the Second World War has been vindicated, every one. The correspondence that Baker has received since receiving his Medal of Honor has encouraged him. Oh, there's lots of hope. I've got quite a few letters that tell me there's gallons of hope. I love 'em. Makes me feel real good that there are people in the world. I've ran across so many people that are not like this and I began to wonder whether the world was full of bad people. But now it makes me feel real, real, real good that there are people like this still in the world. General Order: Citation : For extraordinary heroism in action on 5 and 6 April 1945, near Viareggio, Italy. Then Second Lieutenant Baker demonstrated outstanding courage and leadership in destroying enemy installations, personnel and equipment during his company's attack against a strongly entrenched enemy in mountainous terrain. When his company was stopped by the concentration of fire from several machine gun emplacements, he crawled to one position and destroyed it, killing three Germans. Continuing forward, he attacked and enemy observation post and killed two occupants. With the aid of one of his men, Lieutenant Baker attacked two more machine gun nests, killing or wounding the four enemy soldiers occupying these positions. He then covered the evacuation of the wounded personnel of his company by occupying an exposed position and drawing the enemy's fire. On the following night Lieutenant Baker voluntarily led a battalion advance through enemy mine fields and heavy fire toward the division objective. Second Lieutenant Baker's fighting spirit and daring leadership were an inspiration to his men and exemplify the highest traditions of the Armed Forces. click this link for pics of this day www.medeaofhonor.com/VernonBaker.htm

I have dug up some info to shed light on how repulsive,illegal and down right UNAMERICAN this sell out is. Total bullsh*t!! The Senate amnesty bill is full of lies, half-truths and misdirections. • If passed it would give immediate amnesty for nearly all of the 22 million illegals. • Triple the rate of chain migration from around 250,000 a year to around 750,000 a year for about a decade. • Create new flows of 200,000 "temporary" foreign workers every year who will bring their families and have anchor babies who will qualify for citizenship. They will receive the new "Y" visa. Guest workers would be limited to three two-year terms, and they'd have to spend at least a year outside the United States between each term. Temporary workers will be allowed to bring immediate family members if they can support them financially and they have health insurance. (I dont have health insurance!How 'bout you?) • "Z" visas -- Illegal aliens will be given six months to apply for a "Z" visa. However, they can still renew them indefinitely -- the first "permanent temporary visa" in U.S. history. Federal officials will have only 24 hours to do a security and criminal background check, and if they can't complete the check they can issue the visa anyway. If the fingerprints don't kick up a criminal record in the first 24 hours they get instant legalization papers. Once they get those papers, they can stay in the United States the rest of their lives, whether or not they ever decide to apply for a "Z" visa or green card; • Even if it is found that the illegal alien has a disqualifying FELONY it is not a sure thing that they will be deported. If the alien can convince the judge that deportation would result in a hardship for either the alien or his spouse the alien cannot be deported. Illegal alien gang members will be given a "Z" visa if they are willing to renounce gangs -- 650,000 criminal illegal alien absconders would be legalized under the bill. • Illegal aliens will not be required to pay back taxes. S. 1348 puts an illegal alien into a super class of an American. They are correct that this is not instant citizenship (which might not come for 18 years). But it IS "instant legalization" that allows legal residence and work in the U.S. Immediately after the amnesty bill is signed into law, all 22 million illegal aliens can sign up, give their fingerprints and/or eventually citizenship (unless they are found later to be terrorists or fail to meet a few obscure criteria that may or may not ever be enforced). We urge you to call YOUR SENATORS. Ask friends, relatives, neighbors, etc., to call also. S. 1348 is a sell-out of American sovereignty. • It is a slap in the face to anyone who has legally immigrated into America. • It would be a terrible tax burden for us, our children and eventually our grandchildren. • It rewards illegal activity and elevates illegal aliens above U.S. citizens and legal aliens. For all intents and purposes, it does away with our borders. WE MUST NOT ALLOW ANY OF THIS TO HAPPEN 2 US!JION ME IN MY OUTRAGE!!! As I have said before, many of my jobs have been hard working,underpayed ones.They are trying to make us believe we are too lazy or a bunch of primadonnas who snub our noses at hard crappy jobs.LIES!And this $5,000 payola to get in is a joke, make it $50,000.00 and us that money for a freaking wall.I also want cheap employers to pay big time NOW! They and we know who is illegaly working.And what about mexicos gov (whata joke) to be finacialy responsible for every border jumper,even the masses of non mexicans doing it.We must place sanctions,cut of their imports even. =^.^= PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)

ANNA NICOLES MOM Had a SON w/ her own STEPBROTHER!yuck,that splains alot!

Virgie Has Son with Her Stepbrother Posted Apr 19th 2007 12:30PM by TMZ Staff Filed under: Celebrity Justice, Anna Nicole Smith As Larry Birkhead's custody hearing looms with grandma Virgie standing largely in the way, TMZ has dug up an interesting family tree -- turns out Virgie liked her stepbrother a whole lot. Here's the deal: Virgie's mom, Paralee, married a guy named Melvin and had Virgie. In another part of Texas, a guy named George William Tacker got together with this chick named Betty Jo and had a son named David Luther Tacker. Then Paralee and George got married, so Virgie and David became their stepkids. They were all one big happy family -- maybe too happy, because Virgie hooked up with her stepbro to produce David Luther Tacker, Jr. So, David Sr. is Virgie's stepbrother and her baby daddy. You following so far? True enough, George and Virgie don't share blood. So we wanted to know what you think.

HELP A FALLEN SOLDIER!HIS FAMILY NEEDS US! US!

~~~THIS WAS JUST SENT TO ME BY A GREAT MAN>PLEASE READ AND HELP ANYWAY YOU CAN.THANKS =^.^= ~~ Karpetkitten, I don't know if you remember me, but you and I exchanged emails several months ago. I am a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army and initially sent you a note of thanks for all you do to honor our military, police, firemen and first responders. Now, however, I need your national podium to honor a fallen hero in Iraq. I never told you, but I am from a small town in Montana. Last week in Iraq, one of our own was killed by an IED. He was loved by all and his story is truely one that needs to be told. His name is PFC Kyle Bohrnsen. He comes from a ranching family and was working on his family's 5000 acre plus ranch in Rock Creek valley near Philipsburg, Montana. At 22 Kyle had a house and a great future as a rancher and serving as a hunting guide in the fall/winter. Last year, however, Kyle decided to join the Army in the Infantry because he thought it was his duty to serve this great country. He did not need college money, adventure, or a job, he just felt he lived in the greatest country in the world and wanted to serve four years before he settled down as a rancher. Personally, I knew Kyle and grew up with his father. Everytime I went back home on leave I would talk to him because he was always hanging around my brother. My brother was like an Uncle to him. I mention this because it was my brother and I who encouraged him to join the Army. His parents have all the rights to be bitter with me and my brother, the Army and even the President. My brother was actually afraid to go visit this week, but when he did he found a family in deep pain, but proud of their son. Their desire is to do everything to honor his name. Instead of running to Cindy Sheehan, Lisa (Kyle's mom) wanted to get a tatoo of a Gold Star flag on her arm. Her only question of my brother (a nine year Army veteran) was if it would be a dishonorable action. Her concern was not to diminish her son's memory. It breaks my heart thinking about the pain she is going through and all she thinks about is not bringing shame to her son. His entire family are Great Americans and I love them all. They gave the unlitmate sacrifice but show nothing but respect for there son's service, the Army and this country. Kyle's sister, a senior in high school, told her dad that she now wants to join the Army to finish what Kyle started. Why do we lift celebrities, politicians and Cindy Sheehan when there are people like the Bohrnsens in this Great Country? At any rate Karpetkitten, I have added a few links to some news articles about Kyles death. I ask if you could write up a little tribute to Kyle in your eloquent style to let this nation know about this shining star and of the Bohrnsen's sacrifice. Also, Geoff (Kyle's dad) is starting a scholarship in Kyles name. Could you please also let everyone who feels it in their heart to give that they can send donations to: Kyle Bohrnsen Scholarship Fund Flint Creek Valley Bank P.O. Box 10 Philipsburg, MT 59858 I know you don't owe me anything and are probably asked by many people to write something about a loved one, but I need you. I need your orator skills and I humbly ask that you lift up these beautiful, great Americans. I also ask that you forward this note to Sean, Mark or anyone else with a national podium who also honors our fallen heros. Kyles funeral is Sunday, 22 April in the Gym of Granite High School. The links are below: http://www.militarycity.com/valor/2683651.html http://iraq.pigstye.net/article.php/BohrnsenKyle God Bless Karpetkitten. You would be doing me a great favor to tell Kyle's story and I appreciate your help with all the fiber of my being. Very Respectively, J. Michael Courtney LTC, USA

GIRL POWER CHINESE STYLE!! BADD BOYS ON NOTICE!YEEHAW!

It may be a man's world still but one part at least is about to become exclusively woman's. A district in China will be renamed 'Woman Town' - with strict rules that whatever women want, they get. And disobedient men will be punished, either with wooden boards or menial chores. The 2.3km Shuangqiao district in Chongqing will become what is thought to be the world's first 'Woman Town'. The town gates will bear the ruling philosophy: 'A woman never makes a mistake. A man can never reject a woman's request.' Tourism director Li Jigang said: 'Construction will take around two years, and the place will become a very good destination for entertainment and relaxation. 'In any tour group entering this town, female members would play the deciding role concerning shopping and other items of the itinerary. 'We are drafting a township law which stipulates clearly how men should be punished, and for what. 'A disobedient man will be punished by kneeling on an uneven board or by washing dishes in a restaurant.' ~~~~~=^.^= OMG! Washing dishes, thats the harshest these chicks can start with.They need to get Lindy England-badd military Mama- to show them some punishing ways!Maybe they will have them naked or something more demeaning.And how many of YOU GUYS women are wayyyyy harsher than that? I got some ideas,call me China women,I'll help ya,too! Spank You for your time ;-)> =^.^= ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PLEASE RESPECT,THANK,HONOR,SUPPORT & PRAY FOR OUR TROOPS ,VETS,FIRST RESPONDERS and THEIR FAMILIES ;-)
