Just one of the people, who refuses to be one of the Sheeple.

Hello, and welcome. I have thought about this for a long time, but have resisted the blog-a-sphere until now. I am a just a simple person who has served my country, worked for a major production company, continues raising my family and searching ways to ensure them a better future. I am independent. I am me.

What are Those Medals for Anyway.

To my disappointment I continue to see our legislatures 'misstating' their military records and accomplishments. I mention the latest being Senate candidate Mike Kirk from Illinois. You can read the slew of 'misstated' facts of him or Richard Blumenthal from Connecticut, Wes Cooley from Oregon, Joe McCarthy, or President Ronald Reagan. I don't even want to mention the fight between John Kerry and President Bush about their military careers...since there appears to be undetermined misrepresentations by both individuals. I admire people who served - even a private in the mess deserves a measure of appreciation for their service to our country as well as the general who leads us into battle. People who 'misstate' or 'misrepresent' their military service for personal gain are NOT the people I would chose to represent me. As the infamous Jack Webb on Dragnet stated, "Just the facts, mam." That's all I ask for.
