HEAR YE! HEAR YE! A CALL TO ARMS!

Saturday, January 18, 2003 Washington DC, 0900 at the Brothers of Nam statue near The Wall


Uncle Sam Wants YOU is something most of us remember. Many of us answered the call. There are literally millions upon millions of living war veterans who selflessly defended freedom and America and our families and fellow countrymen.
Over thirty years ago, the defenders of a free world fought a new kind of war. It was a war without a front, a war without a demonstrable support for its heroic fighters, but with a ferocious enemy back home capturing the media, college campuses, the entertainment industry, many of our own elected representatives, and the attention of the leaders of a militarily soundly defeated North Vietnamese Army and its communist allies, to whom said enemy back home, the radical left, gave aid and abetment.
All of the veterans of that conflict remember the vitriolic welcome home, and the discrimination against them, and the name calling and vile shunning from much of the very people they fought so bravely for.
NEVER AGAIN!
United States Marine Corps combat veterans of the Vietnam War have initiated an offensive; a war, if you will, against the stance and arrogance of the leftist radical movement. These vile traitors, sympathetic to the enemies of this nation have again, after thirty years, risen their ugly heads, Phoenix-like, to aid and abet our enemies. As before, they are demonstrating, trying to present, with the help of the liberal media, a false impression to the citizens and politicians of America, and the world, of a popular opposition to the United States defending itself and waging war upon those bent upon its destruction.
This is YOUR finest hour. Uncle Sam NEEDS you. Your arms are your willingness to help show the world the radical left is not going to be given the sole position of presenting the only voice of the will and wishes of our people; a false and noisy minority is all they are and ever have been.
Your call is to plan to join up with these Marines, and other patriotic Americans, and proceed to Washington, DC to be a needed member of our Righteous Demonstration against that of the leftist anti-war protestors. Noted media representative of the right have been notified we will be there to present and voice what we believe is still the position of the vast majority of Americans.
Time is very short. You may have to make a sacrifice of your time, travel expense, and the comfort of your home in front of the television on which you will be seeing the left once again doing their thing. Please, PLEASE, do not allow them to do it unopposed. YOU are needed!
The leftist demonstration will begin with a gathering on the west side of the White House, and will proceed to the U.S. Navy Yards about four miles to the southeast. You should simply request information, or any questions you may have about anything back to the source of this letter having been e-mailed or sent to you.

This letter ... this PLEA for 'militia' members in a fight against those bent upon the destruction of our country and way of life ... is being sent to many, many places. The total distribution will be unknown to anyone.
Because of that, none of us could know the magnitude of participation.
It IS known, however, that the United States Marine Vietnam combat veteran who wrote this letter, will, if necessary, stand for his nation, our loved ones, our way of life, and THE TRUTH, along with a small band of his brothers, ALONE AGAIN, if need be,
in Washington DC, at 0900 at the Brothers of Nam statue near The Wall, January 18, 2003.

Semper Fidelis, Joel Charles Kernodle - pointmanherc@ameritech.net

Thank you for posting this today. It's excellent!

The sad part is that there are still folks out there who never take the time to "notice" who's defending them and this country. They should be ashamed.

You don't know how badly I'd love to be in D.C. next month but have you ever tried to find a "critter sitter" who's willing to take care of 39 cats? LOL! That's why I make no guarantees, but I'm gonna try.

It's marked on the calendar and if I can't make it up there, I'll certainly be thinking about everyone who's there that day. I hope there's a great turnout.

My ex-husband was one who got that treatment. My time married to him and living at Camp LeJeune is where I learned to respect and be thankful to our military men and women.

I love your response to those people who gave you a bit of grief at the party. I would love to have seen the looks on their faces. Priceless, you say? hehehehe! Goooood!

Whew! I was really hoping I'd be able to check out the entire thread but I believe I'm going to have to lay back down. I hurt my back more than I realized getting that big box off the top shelf at Wally World. I've got pinched nerves zinging all over my body right now and it's difficult to even type. Dopey me!!! I never should have done that.

Good night Kathy. Sleep well tonight. God bless ya for all you do in support of our troops.

Good night to all who come to the Canteen to show your support and respect for those who have served and those who are serving now.

Good night to our troops and allies, wherever you may be. May God watch over you and keep you safe!

radu, what is becoming of us?

This will require a hospital ward if we are not careful. I hope you didn't hurt your back again.

I left this on while I dealt with the critters' needs before lying down, and heard the "pinger". I'm movin' kinda slow right now. I'm such a dummy to get that heavy box down myself. But no one answered the page and I wanted that jungle gym right now and got it. I'm paying for it now! LOL

Alternate heat/cold will hopefully help get things straightened out soon (crossed fingers!). It does seem like we'll need a hospital ward around here, doesn't it? chuckle

See you tomorrow, with luck. Good night again. I'm outta here while I can still walk to the bedroom.
