URGENT!!
A movement
has been started by 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 even get
permission to fight. Nothing has been done to stop our troops from
being murdered by Afghanis they are training, either.
Now, the President
wants the US to sign on to the Un's International Criminal Court (ICC), which
would allow the UNs 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 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.
Thank You!!
Interestingly
enough, when GWB was president you heard about the 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 nine years before. Thirty
have died in August. During the last 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 4 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.
But, there is now a movement afoot in the armed services to launch
a massive get out the vote drive against this president. 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 election if they all
respond. The 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 turn out 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.
Veterans:
Please forward to your lists. High Priority!
