Were it not for the Revolutionary War militiamen, our independence would never have been won. Our citizens went to war.
The Battle of Alligator Bridge took place on June 30, 1778, and was the only major engagement in an unsuccessful campaign to conquer British East Florida during the American Revolutionary War. A detachment of Georgia militiamen under the command of General James Screven chased Thomas Brown’s Loyalist company into a large position of British regulars established by British Major Mark Prevost and were turned back.

A silver lining?
We have all become so accustom to The Beast and Boy Bill breaking the law with impunity that I think we are missing a silver lining.
Hillary went to extreme measures to hide her corruption with her illegal misuse of email, (just think how damaging they are) her and Bill have obviously used their charity as a personal piggy bank, White Water, Benghazi, Bill’s abuse of women, Hillary’s abuse of women, Hillary destabilizing the ME, Bill and Lynch meeting in her airplane 🙄 , their corruption and blatant disregard for the law goes on and on it even pre-dates Arkansas.
The Clintons don’t care that people know these things but they do fear being held accountable or they wouldn’t constantly be on the attack and constantly looking over their shoulder.
It is said by every one in the know and willing to speak about it that Hillary is a wretched easy angry hair triggered wretch of a shrew. << if you are happy, secure and content you do not act that way. If you are confident things are going your way you do not meet with Lynch in a steel tube because you are afraid of the optics and electronic listening devices.
I think the Clintons are running scared, the years of corruption, cover-ups and back stabbing is catching up to them. Not to their conscience but to the fear receptors in the brains. They know eventually that they are going to be exposed and even held accountable. They both are so decrepit looking they may pass on before that day comes but there is a spiraling of their corruption and power like that of an addict who has for years functioned in society in spite the their addiction.
Personally I think Bill Clinton should watch his back as Hillary would love if he passed on some time in early October as she would play the sympathy card for ever penny and vote that she could milk out of it. People who trust Hillary with their life do not fair too well.
The Clintons IMO are close to the edge of ruling as dictators for decades to come, (Charlotte is probably already pro-abortion) or they are close to a reckoning. I hope, pray and act for the latter.

Muslim Brats Refuse ‘Western’ Lesson, So Authorities Refuse Something Of Theirs
http://madworldnews.com/muslim-refuse-western-lesson/
Alleging that it goes against their religion, Muslim schoolgirls refused the curriculum because they would have to take a mandatory class with boys. After demanding segregated classes, the entitled Muslims not only found out that officials weren’t bowing to Sharia, they soon realized that something of theirs was now being denied.
…
Finding that the girls had applied for Swiss citizenship, authorities immediately denied their applications, citing the students’ refusal to comply with school curricula like all the other children of various races, backgrounds, and religions. Their refusal to assimilate to and respect the very culture they wanted to take them in and give them the privilege of citizenship was proof enough that they weren’t there to better Swiss society but to force its citizens to adopt their foreign beliefs.
“Whoever doesn’t fulfill these conditions violates the law and therefore cannot be naturalized,” Stefan Wehrle, president of the naturalization committee, told TV station SRF on Tuesday.

Seen on FB – discussion re John McCain:
Do I have a story to tell you about John McCain!
You are ABSOLUTELY correct when you said McCain worked hard to stop the government from looking for known living POWs!!! (Also, MIAs!)
A lady by the name of “JoAnn” was a very dear friend of ours and was a former Vice-Chairperson of the National League of Families POW/MIA. When my husband and I co-founded the Gwinnett Fallen Heroes Memorial, we asked JoAnn to join our Board of Directors, and she graciously accepted. She worked tirelessly to help raise funds for the memorial itself and also for our annual Memorial Day Services.
JoAnn’s brother was a Captain (Air Force, I believe), who was also a pilot. During one of his tours to Vietnam, the plane he was piloting was shot down. It was assumed that everyone on board was killed. The Government (time and time again) refused to look for the wreckage or try to uncover the whereabouts of the remains of the crew (and, hopefully, any survivors).
During Senate hearings in DC, JoAnn and an entourage of her League Members appeared before Congress to testify. McCain argued with everyone who testified from this group; he would have none of it and appeared very sarcastic to JoAnn, in particular!
During a called recess, JoAnn approached him on the floor of the Senate to try to appeal to him. He became loud, rude, obnoxious, and made some derogatory remarks about her brother (who held the rank of Captain and who piloted the plane) and the fact that he was shot down. JoAnn became so very incensed that she balled up her fists and started to swing at him when other members of her organization literally grabbed her and dragged her outside. She did manage to tell him face-to-face what a POS and a FAKE he was and called him every name in the book and beyond. In short, this beautiful, gracious, yet highly incensed, woman was ready to give him an “old-fashioned butt kicking”!!! And she would have done it, too, if fellow members of the League had not hauled her out of there!
Now, let me tell you about JoAnn. She was a beautiful person–inside and outside. She was active in this organization, as well as other organizations to honor our POW, MIA, and Veterans Groups. She was the pianist at her church and a very dedicated Christian. Her quest in life was to try to locate (at least) the remains of her brother, along with members of his crew, before the death of her parents. She was adamant that she wanted him returned home, either dead or alive, before their demise. JoAnn was a wonderful woman and very dedicated to this cause. There’s absolutely nothing she wouldn’t do for you, but you didn’t treat members of the military in a demeaning manner in front of her, and McCain certainly did that to the families of the lost. She desperately hated John McCain for his cavalier attitude toward this venture and never got over what he did to her family and hundreds (perhaps thousands) of other families who, to this very day, still do not know what happened to their loved ones.
Every time I see McCain’s ugly mug on the TV, I want to pull an Elvis and throw something at him (I would shoot the TV, but these oversized flat screens are sort of expensive, LOL!). McCain is a fake, a phony (for those who don’t believe it, research, research, research, and you’ll see what I mean), and has absolutely NO HEART. He’s just another career politician who plays this game NOT to serve his constituents but for his own personal agenda–power and money. He’s a useless thug who should have been put out to pasture long, long ago. Such a waste of human flesh!

Repeating what I’ve posted before, some years back I got to work Defense Prisoner of War Missing Personnel Office (now the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency) on Korean War POW/MIA issues. Our job was to go through the original debriefing files of the repatriated US POWs. Whatvwe found was that a lot ofvwhatvwe were told about the POWs, even in military bfiefs, was flat out wrong. What really got to us is when we talked to a WW II researcher who co formed the US goverment had allowed the Russians to spirit away thousands of allied POWs at the end of the war and let them rot and die in Russia. DoD and State covered the loss upmfor decades, even when relatives of some POWs presented German Stalag and International Red Cross records showing their loved ones were alive weks before the end of the war.
I also talked with people who’d worked with an unnamed agency who’d intercepted communications regarding US POWs being transferred from North Vietnam to China and Russia, Russian officials even admitted such just after the USSR fell. There’s also the case of a US military engineer who’d worked on the life support systems for US spacecraft. He was shot down over the North, captured alive but disappeared. A year later the notoriously dicey Russian life support systems in their space capsules become far more reliable metric copies of US systems.
There’s more but it’s all moot now, he and those in the government who see MIAs and POWs as obstacles to getting over it and moving ahead have achieved their goals, the public thinks less about the missing than they do about Bigfoot, even Stallone or Norris haven’t made a movie about them in years. Fair winds and following seas comrades, rest in peace.

Law Enforcement Sources: Gun Used in Paris Terrorist Attacks Came from Phoenix
http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2016/06/law-enforcement-sources-gun-used-paris-terrorist-attacks-came-phoenix/
One of the guns used in the November 13, 2015 Paris terrorist attacks came from Phoenix, Arizona where the Obama administration allowed criminals to buy thousands of weapons illegally in a deadly and futile “gun-walking” operation known as “Fast and Furious.”
A Report of Investigation (ROI) filed by a case agent in the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives (ATF) tracked the gun used in the Paris attacks to a Phoenix gun owner who sold it illegally, “off book,” Judicial Watch’s law enforcement sources confirm. Federal agents tracing the firearm also found the Phoenix gun owner to be in possession of an unregistered fully automatic weapon, according to law enforcement officials with firsthand knowledge of the investigation…

Thanks. She says she’s done after this one, but I told her she wasn’t if it wasn’t a girl. lol
Plus she said she was never getting married and she did. She said she was never having kids and she did. She said she was only having one and that wasn’t true either. 🙂
The only problem with her is she’s a hag when pregnant. I should have guessed before she told me because she’s been pretty crabby the last few weeks.

Called one of my Senator’s offices today on an FCC policy question involving a one BILLION dollar program designed to duplicate what another program run by the USDA was supposed to do years ago.
DC office said to call office in our state capitol as it was a local issue. Called capitol office and they said it was an issue handled by a satellite office. Called satellite office and they said it was a national policy matter that would be handled by the DC office. When I said the DC office sent me to the state office which in turn sent me to them they said that the person who might be able to help me is out of the office and should call back Tuesday after the three-day weekend.
Gettin’ the idea?
