DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Foreign Press doesn't pull punches on Palin

One wonders, can Sarah Palin can see what the Russians see: a shrill, desperate demagogue more interested in making money and getting famous than in the best interests of her country; a woman so jealous of a sitting President that she takes every blow her country faces and exploits it, turning it into an even more negative, frightening moment while distracting from the real work – never once stepping into the debate to lead, to soothe, to unite.

This woman is ready to cut benefits for disabled veterans who put their lives on the line for the rest of us, but will fight tooth and nail to keep billionaires from paying 3% more in income taxes. Who votes for these people?
Comment by TexasDocMom on January 28, 2011 at 4:09pm

Right...come on moms...this is YOUR vet she's talking about...and if the Tea Baggers wanted death panels, this is it. Cutting vet health benefits and those disabled from their military career....if the cuts don't kill them, then the suicide rate will rise. what would YOUR vet do if he/she didn't have medical help? you got the big bucks to pay for the rehab Bush's war put on these kids? good grief.

 

They won't pay attention, Inga...if it's not on Fox news or Beck isn't endorsing it, it doesn't matter to them...they're "scared" of real news!

You're kidding...I can't even think of anything vile enough to call that person.
Comment by TexasDocMom on January 13, 2011 at 7:37pm
I cannot read the comments on you tube or yahoo without either laughing myself silly, or just being appalled that first of all...why can't Americans SPELL? or that there is just so much hatred in the world. I'm just not sure how anyone can say that young killer's mentality wasn't affected by the hate talk against Democrats and liberals, he had been indoctrinated in since at least middle school. Our kids, being rational, would question that nut case talk of a Rush or a Hannity, but an irrational mind, who knows?

Arizona to announce legislation Arizona's state legislature has announced a legislative effort to combat the infamous Westboro Baptist Church's plans to picket the funerals of the shooting victims in Tucson over the weekend,

Tom Delay gets 3 years prison time!   plus 10 years probation...all of which he is repealing because the ego manic truly believes he can do no wrong. The judge actually addressed the comments Delay has made about the DA's office and how they are "persecuting" him...and said that these charges were real and valid and that a law had been broken.
Comment by TexasDocMom on January 9, 2011 at 9:44pm
I saw that nonsense..."survey symbols"...get a freakin' grip. They need to realize that the whole world is watching and learning about them now, and not just the stupid sheep that follow Palin and her ilk. I was wondering that about Beck and Limbaugh and the Fox news creeps as well.Those are NOT survey symbols!! On a happier note, TLC has dumped Palin's show...thank goodness, no more nightmares after surfing the TV before bed.
