"Hanging Out with the Boys"

I often voice my support for the war against Islamo-fascism and for the brave men and women in our Armed Forces who are fighting so that we may live in safety here at home. What I don't often write about is that, being a daughter of a Vietnam vet, I understand all too well the toll that war takes on our warriors.

They do a job that requires them to kill for their country, for their survival, and for the survival of their brothers in arms. How many of us could do that? How many of us truly understand the bittersweet comraderie that is found on the battlefield and the bond that is built there? Evidently, James Hooker does.

You heard the song on the link I provided to info on James Hooker; however, you absolutely MUST see the video of "Hanging Out with the Boys." It is a touching portrait of our warriors, both contemporary and historic.

Please know that while you are "hanging out with the boys" on the line, our prayers are with all of our warriors -- prayers that you are victorious in battle, prayers that you make it home safely to your families. Please know that you have the thanks and the respect of a grateful nation for the sacrifices you make.

God bless all of our brave men and women in uniform!

Friday Night with Hugh and Friends

The consummate Conservative host, Hugh Hewitt, and yours truly! Shameless of me to post this, I know; however, I'm too jazzed to care. :-p What a wonderful way to spend a Friday night! After an hour or so wandering through some of the exhibits at the Frazier Historical Arms Museum, I then got to spend three hours with Hugh Hewitt and 599 other fans of his show. I absolutely MUST say that not only was Hugh wonderful and the live show very entertaining, but his fans are absolutely the nicest people! I've seen other radio talk show s done live and mingled with fans of those shows. Hugh Hewitt's fans are the nicest, most down to earth, friendly people I've ever met. It's quite a credit to Hugh that he draws such a fan base. If you haven't been to the Frazier Historical Arms Museum here in Louisville, it's a must-see. The museum shows an amazing artistry with the exhibits and places them in the context of the times in a very entertaining and educationa

As the Blog Turns...

Gee. I have found myself fascinated by the soap opera unfolding in the comments section of this blog since last night. One little mention on a controversial Democrat's blog and it's High Noon on ConservaChick! (Yes, I'm laughing while I type this.) For those of you who have no idea what's happening in the ever-expanding comments section , join the club! Here's what I know about Mark Nickolas from bits and pieces I've read on his blog, and from a local news report: Nickolas likes to sneer at Republicans and call them snide little nicknames as he provides his "Unfiltered and Candid Look at Politics, Politicians and the Media in Kentucky;" he raised a ruckus within the Democrat party here in Kentucky by filing a suit against the chairman of the party , Jerry Lundergan; and he will be appearing on the same panel with yours truly on Thursday night. That's about it. You now have the benefit of my not-so-extensive knowledge on this subject. Nickolas poste
