AN INTERESTING NOTION

During World War II -- the Japanese developed a way to demoralize the American forces. Psychological warfare experts developed a message theyfelt would work. They gave the script to their famous broadcaster "Tokyo Rose" and every day she would broadcast this same message packaged in different ways, hoping it would have a negative impact on American GI's morale.

What was that demoralizing message?

It had three main points:

1. Your President is lying to you.

2. This war is illegal.

3. You cannot win the war.

Does this sound familiar?

It should because Hillary, Harry, John, Teddy, Nancy, and etc. have picked up on the same message and are broadcasting it on CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, etc., to our nation's citizens and our troops? The only difference is that they claim to support our troops before they demoralize them.

Come to think of it, didn't Tokyo Rose tell the troops she was on their side, too?

Isn't this the truth....that is about all you hear on the news these days.

I watched the Tokyo Rose trial on the Discovery Channel night before last and her words still echo in my ear. Many people don't realize that Iva Toguri was an American citizen by birth. I thought she should have been shot before a firing squad, but she literally received a slap on the wrist and was pardoned by Gerald Ford. She died last September after collecting Social Security from the United States for many years.

Probably an irony there, I just can't seem to see it....

Went to see medical oncologist today. Second opinion we got on Tuesday persuaded him do do a course of chemo beginning on Monday.

Please pray that the treatments will not weaken me to the point that they are doing more harm than good.

We continue to praise the Lord for each day of life and breath.
