RUMBLE-VOTE-STORM WASHINGTON D.C. !
It doesn't matter if you are a
veteran or not. Please read and forward this to all your e-mail buddies.
Let it go viral.
The 2014 United States elections will be held on
Tuesday, November 4, 2014. During this midterm election year, all 435
seats in the United States House of Representatives and 33 of the 100
seats in the United States Senate will be contested in this election. Get
out and VOTE!
A movement has started in our armed forces to get out
the vote in 2014...They are organizing themselves, but this can be done by
all of us.
The President, the Commander in Chief, has made the
Rules of Engagement (ROE) so difficult that our troops are often killed
before they can get permission to fight.
Nothing has been done to stop
our troops from being murdered by the Afghanis they are training,
either.
Now, the President wants the US to sign on to the UNs
International Criminal Court (ICC), which would allow the UN's ICC to
arrest and try US troops for War Crimes, without the legal protections
guaranteed under US Law, and from which there is no appeal. The President,
with his Democratic control of the Senate, has nearly all the power.
If
the Non-Establishment Republicans, and Conservatives, can take back the
Senate in 2014, our troops can once again be protected from unnecessary
danger.
Please consider this, and send it on to your mailing
lists.
Interestingly enough, when GWB was president you heard about the
military deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan almost daily. With Obama in the
White House, the mainstream media has been strangely quiet.
More than
1,000 American soldiers have lost their lives in Afghanistan in the last
27 months. This is more than the combined total of the five years before
that.
Many have died since August. During the last six month, over 50
additional NATO and US servicemen have been murdered, inside jobs by those
who are hired to be a "force for good in Afghanistan ."
The commander
in chief is AWOL. Not a peep, although he ordered the White House flag
flown at half-staff for the Sikhs that were killed.
There is a deep
disgust, a fury, growing in the ranks of the military against the
indifferent incompetence of this president.
It has taken on a
dangerous tone. No one knows what to do about him, but the anger runs deep
as the deaths continue with no strategic end in sight to the idiocy of
this war.
Obama has had 5 years to end this futile insanity, during
which time he has vacationed, golfed, campaigned, and generally ignored
the plight of our men and women in uniform.
There is now a movement
afoot in the armed services to launch a massive “get out the vote” drive
against this president's party. Not just current active duty types, but
the National Guard, Reserves, the retired, and all other prior service
members.
This is no small special interest group, but many millions
of veterans who can have an enormous impact on the outcome of the November
2014 mid-term election, if they all respond.
The one million military
retirees in Florida alone could mean an overwhelming victory in that state
if they all show up at the polls.
It might not keep another one
hundred U.S. troops from dying between now and November, but a turnout to
vote by the military against this heart breaking lack of leadership can
make a powerful statement that hastens a change to the indifference of
this shallow little man who just lets our soldiers die.
