Did you know that Alaska was attacked in June of 1942 by the Japanese? Did you know that Alaskan guardsmen fought off the invasion? Unbelievable but true! Now only 26 of those guardsmen remain and Barack Obama has decided they don't need their pensions. Truly Unbelievable!!

Japan actually held the island of Attu for quite a time until they were driven off.

Japanese invaded Attus & Kiska & their carriers raided Dutch Harbor as a diversion to the Midway invasion. Didn't work out too well and they lost an intact Zero to American intelligence in the process.

No, it doesn't surprise me that Obama is contemptuous of any American history that doesn't suit him politically.

FTA: This is beyond the pale, and just shows Obama’s continual disregard for what has made America the greatest nation on earth.

Welll that is the problem isn't it? Besides, they probably aren't black.

The US paid Filipino World War II veterans this year.

Why didn't Pres. Bush square this stuff away when he had his chance?

But of course it is vitally important that we have an airport in Johnstown, Pa. for the 3 daily flights to Washington, right congressman Murtha!

Of course. The elderly are a bad demographic group for Obama - they didn’t vote for him.

Therefore, they must be demonized and have resources transferred to his groups — union members, particularly the SEIU, people who pay no taxes (especially single moms), eco-terrorists, and other fringe groups.

Its why Obama wants to transfer $400 billion from Medicare to his new plan, to insure his voters including the illegal aliens.

Its the same reason the bulk of the $787 billion “stimulus” was directed to states — because that bails out the states’ unionized labor force and funnels money to welfare.

With Hussein, its a simple case of “follow the money.” He is simply paying off his voters.

However I read today that a Rep senator from Utah had placed a $5M earmark in the Military Spending bill to fund the preparation and issuance of “scrapbooks” to National Guard members that serve on active duty??

I’m sure most of them still live in Alaska.
As such, it looks like the Zero Administration is killing
two birds with one stone-—slamming their enemy, Sarah Palin (this cut off was done IMMEDIATELY after Zero took office), and also putting into play their anti-military, anti-AMerican agenda by in effect, starving total strangers.
THIS should be publicized on its own.
PLEASE-—no beseeching requests for this a**hole to “do the right thing”—that only feeds his sense that he’s the King and we’re the loyal subjects. They show who they really are, with virtually EVERY thing they do, and every decision and choice they make. We should take them at their word: having a very good sense of who Obama is and who everyone he surrounds himself with is, I KNOW they won’t change, and I don’t want them to change, and make “better decisions”. I want them to continue on this course and sooner rather than later reach a tipping point where NO ONE CAN STAND THEM.

I don't think he was a member of the guard unit, but Charleston Heston fought in the Aleutians during WW2.

"Now only 26 of those guardsmen remain and Barack Obama has decided they don't need their pensions. "

Are you posting that Obama took away their pensions?

Obama: go to hell where you’ll find many will agree with your schemes.
