In each of the 4 years that I have been a member of the state Assembly, we have had many "celebrations" on the Assembly floor. These "celebrations" are orchestrated by the Democrats who control the House and often involve singing and dancing. Every one of my 4 years have seen substantial celebrations of Cinco de Mayo (Commemorates the Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla), St. Patrick's Day (for the patron Saint of Ireland) and Chinese New Year's Day, among others. But never once have we celebrated America's Independence Day, the 4th of July.
So, this year, Republican Assemblyman Jay LaSuer of San Diego arranged for Vietnam war hero Admiral Jeremiah Denton to come to California to be a part of a 4th of July ceremony. As you may know, Admiral Denton was a Navy pilot in Vietnam who was shot down and spent 8 years in a Vietnamese prison. In 1966 while in prison, he was interviewed by North Vietnamese television in Hanoi after torture to get him to "respond properly." During this interview, he blinked his eyes in Morse code to spell out the word "torture." He was asked about his support for the war in Vietnam to which he replied "I don't know what is happening now in Vietnam, because the only news sources I have are Vietnamese. But whatever the position of my government is, I believe in it, I support it, and I will support it as long as I live." Four of his 8 years in prison were spent in solitary confinement. He later wrote the book When Hell was in Session, chronicling his experience in Vietnam....

Governor Arnold is wonderful.
I LOVE Jeremiah Denton.
He's a true hero, 100%.
The man is flawless.
Glad to hear that he lives in AL. I do not want the stench of CA to defile him. At least AL knows a hero when they see one since AL elected him to the Senate.
We need to check the papers tomorrow to see if for some reason the Bee, Slimes, and the Chron have anything to say about this.
He was the first Republican ever elected to the Senate from Alabama and only served one term.
Yes we do.
First thing.
I'll check the San Diego U-T.
Damn the democrats.
They're really proving themselves UN-American.
Yes, you're right, he does.
I get his news letter.

So, Is the union printing again??
I ask in all ernest, because I would love to subscribe, 3-4 different accounts, just to get them rolling!!
Go get em Tiger!!!!
I wonder who that was?
And the Dems whine when they are called unpatriotic!
If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, ....
They have a free website updated daily although not a lot of material. The plan is to have a more thorough website updated daily and a monthly print magazine.

I know John Campbell is on the Hugh Hewitt show once a week. I hope he is on today so they can spread the word.
These traitorous dogs will eventually tear this country apart. I wish they would just switch their party name from Democratic to Communist and have done with it. At least everyone would know where he or she stood.
I hope Admiral Denton blinked a "Cheney" morse code to the CA Assembly.
They couldn't have illustrated their contempt for America any clearer.
Arnold loves America. I'm very proud of him.
Quack!

It is the soldier, not the reporter,
Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the soldier, not the poet,
Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the soldier, not the campus organizer,
Who has given us the freedom to demonstrate.
It is the soldier,
Who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag."
Amen. God bless America.
Do you think Hugh Hewitt knows about this?
A substitutie host, Eric Hoge from Sacto is filling in today. Someone should try to contact him.
