Awesome article and tribute to a great American.....thank you for your sacrifice!!

Yeah, out of one side of his mouth, in order to garner votes, MaO-bama says America is the greatest country on earth....that's why he wants to 'fundamentally transform it'. Yeah, right. Get rid of this lying scumbag in November.

Mr. Payne....in your article you state "The administration must find a way to tap into this nation's potential". If we were talking about your 'normal' administration, I would 100% agree with you. But, sadly, we are not. This stealth-Communist, with muslim tendencies, and a hate for America so deep that psychology would not flesh it out, has an agenda that stifles the nation's potential. From socialism in industry, banking, education, healthcare, and every other area of your life, this monstrosity of a president is bent on One World Government where he can be king!!

This is the classic Cloward & Piven strategy of overloading the public assistance systems until they become unsustainable or collapse. MaO-bama is a big fan of this in his quest to destroy the country he loves to hate...the United States. This inept, anti-American, anti-capitalist, muslim-loving, Christian-hating, empty suit is intent on destroying us. WAKE UP AMERICA and vote this clown out in November, 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Robert, you say: "We just weren;t interested in other people's private lives". I beg to differ....the homosexual agenda has never been more interested in our children's private lives by indoctrinating them to 'try or follow' a perverted and unhealthy lifestyle!!

Isn't it ironic how outraged liberals were at Bush for implementing the Patriot Act, but you hear crickets from them on these intrusive, liberty-stealing acts. The hypocrisy is amazing!!

This is only the start of Big Brother watching you!! In the near future, ALL home appliances (washer, dryer, stoves, furnaces, etc.) will have an embedded chip to monitor your every activity. As we speak, the largest data center in the world is being constructed in Utah to capture and analyze this data. Also, the United Nations has been pushing AGENDA 21 since 1992 which aims to control private property ownership, limit single family homes, reduce private car ownership, reduce privately owned farms, and population control. Look into it at www.democratsagainstunagenda21.com !!

We don't know the 'facts' in this case yet, but you can be sure the gun grabbers will milk the case for all it's worth to eliminate our 2nd Amendment rights.

I found it extremely humorous that the left denigrated Sarah Palin for her lack of experience as "only" a mayor and governor of a state. The current "occupier" of the Oval Office had the tremendous credentials of being a Chicago thug community organizer and freshman Senator with excellent teleprompter skills reading someone else's speeches.

After taking over the financial, manufacturing and educational functions, the next thing Hitler did was to disarm the German people. See any parallels here? Wake up America!!
