Biden made his speech at the graduation ceremony held at Michie Stadium on the West Point grounds along the Hudson River.

West Point has been so fouled by people like Biden that it should be torn down and rebuilt.

Democrats think they can make things true just by saying them. The contempt in which they view the public is staggering.

Hard to believe that the battle of Fallujah was 12 years ago. We'll never be able to recapture the city today with our politically correct military.

The best way to lose weight is to eat lots more, ‘specially fatty foods. You’ll have more energy for exercise that way.

With openly gay soldiers in the military, America has won its last war. The Lord of Hosts will not “be” with the forces that allows homosexuality or perversion within the camps. The issue is non-negotiable. We can hit our knees and pray 24 hours a day when the SHTF, but it won’t matter. As long as the “dogs or their hire” are within the military, we as a nation are ripe for the plucking.
