Lawmakers revive call for Iraq vets parade in NYC despite Pentagon pushback

The push for a ticker-tape parade down the Canyon of Heroes for Iraq veterans is gaining new traction after New York City hosted its blow-out celebration for the New York Giants -- a festival that raised immediate questions about why the country is not extending the same honor to returning soldiers. Lawmakers representing New York, and at least one national veterans group, are renewing their call for a parade -- though the pushback appears to be coming not from New York but from Washington. "We think the mayor is actually somewhat on board -- and we think the stumbling block might be the White House and the Pentagon," Joseph Borelli, chief of staff to New York Councilman Vincent Ignizio, told FoxNews.com…

Air Force Removes ‘God’ From Logo

A Virginia lawmaker is calling on the Air Force to reverse a decision to remove a Latin reference to “God” from a logo after an atheist group complained. Rep. Randy Forbes, (R-VA), said the Air Force removed the logo several weeks ago from the Rapid Capabilities Office. The patch included a line written in Latin that read, “Doing God’s Work with Other People’s Money.” But after the Military Association of Atheists and Freethinkers complained, Forbes said the line was rewritten in Latin to read, “Doing Miracles with Other People’s Money.” Forbes, along with a bi-partisan group of 35 lawmakers, sent a letter to Air Force Secretary Michael Donley and Air Force Chief of Staff Norton Schwartz expressing concern over the decision to remove a non-religious reference to God. “It is most egregious,” Forbes told Fox News. “The Air Force is taking the tone that you can’t even use the word ‘God.’”…

An atheist group complained? What a surprise. Are they going to try to stop people from saying "Oh my God" in public too? But to be honest, I think the logo is lame with or without the reference to God.

What does Pam think?

How can we call an increased tax a Medicare tax if the tax is not actually going toward Medicare? Healthcare law? Pandora's box is a more accurate description.

If this is the way we're going, why doesn't the military just get rid of chaplains and be done with it?

You know the old saying: there is no such thing as a free lunch. Whenever there is an increased cost to business - or government - it always gets passed on to the consumer/taxpayer. I'm not sure why people are so surprised whenever this sort of thing happens.

This is what happenss when one puts the rights of the incoming immigrants over the rights of the citizens. Looks like Geert Wilders isn't the only one sounding the alarm about the Islamization of Europe.

Kelly a ‘Ray-cist’? What a smear

Attacks on the police commissioner for anti-Muslim bias are wrong

Recently, interest groups such as the Council of American Islamic Relations have demanded that NYPD Commissioner Raymond Kelly resign and that an outside inspector general be appointed over the NYPD. Both demands should be rejected. The demands follow the revelation that the NYPD has been using the film “The Third Jihad: Radical Islam’s Vision for America” — in which both of us also appeared — as part of its counterterrorism training program. The documentary takes an in-depth look at the process of radicalization that takes place within certain elements of Muslim society in America. Those elements were previously highlighted in a landmark 2007 NYPD intelligence division report titled “Radicalization in the West: The Homegrown Threat.” In the preface to the 2007 report, Kelly wrote, New York City continues to be “one of the top targets of terrorists worldwide. Consequently, the NYPD places a priority on understanding what drives and defines the radicalization process.”…

When all other arguments fail, play the racist card. Hey, it's worked for Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson for decades...why shouldn't CAIR take a shot?

Ridiculous Gov't. Spending List Grows Longer

The list of wasteful spending by the federal government in Washington, D.C., grows ever longer. Like the $120 million for federal retirement benefits to retirees who are already dead. Patrick Knudsen, The Heritage Foundation's senior federal budget expert, pointed showed CBN News a recent example. "After a retiree had died, his son continued cashing his checks for 37 years. And it didn't stop until 2008 when the son himself died," he said…

The larger a bureaucracy, the more difficult it is to streamline processes and procedures. Hence, more government waste and a greater opportunity for people to game the system. The solution is obvious to anyone who isn't on the left...
