WHO REALLY HAS THE #WARONWOMEN?

Check out my latest at Liberty News Network

 

If you believe the LapDogMedia and those on the Left, you would think that those of us on the right want to have women barefoot in the kitchen, popping out babies left and right.  Hence the left’s #WaronWomen meme.   But really who has the #WaronWomen?

Project Valour-IT

08/21/12

---

Good news and bad news on the Valour-IT front:

Thanks to the generous donors who have participated in the 2012 Valour-IT fundraising competition, another 30 laptops are headed out the door to wounded heroes in the San Antonio area who need them!

However, there are 56 more people nationwide still waiting for a laptop.  They need a laptop to reconnect with their world and gain a bit more control of their environment as they face the long-term results of their sacrificial service to this country.  

With the lethality and sophistication of IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) used against coalition troops in Afghanistan markedly increased this year, Valour-IT is needed more than ever–wounded warriors who have lost two or three limbs are not nearly as rare as they used to be.  

Project Valour-IT is more powerful than words can truly explain.  A wounded warrior who is coping with the catastrophic rearrangement of his body and his psyche needs the familiar reassurance of doing something he could do before–surfing the web, controlling a piece of his environment, and reconnecting with his support system.  Putting a voice-controlled laptop in front of a wounded hero gives him back a piece of his life and hope for the future that he WILL do what he did before, even if he has to do a it a bit differently, now.

Words are vital–they soothe the battered heart and soul… but Valour-IT goes further.  The gift of a laptop is not just warm feelings and needed reassurance of support; it’s a powerful tool handed to a hero by dozens of Americans who gave what they could, did what they could when they could do nothing else.   It’s a physical proof of two things: “We’re here for you, and you are still a part of our world.”

Please give what you can by clicking a “Donate” button, do what you can by emailing a friend or sharing it on Facebook with a  personal comment.   Don’t forget to check with your employer about matching funds, too!

Together we can reach out to these heroes at the most difficult times in their lives, offering them a true hand up to the new life they are struggling to construct.  They have sacrificed pieces of themselves for us.  Can we sacrifice a few dollars for them?

 

RNC Convention

Looks like Isaac is not coming with drinks, and will delay at least part if the RNC Convention.

MEMO DATE: August 25, 2012 FROM: RNC Chairman Reince Priebus @Reince TO: Interested Parties RE: RNC Convention Due to the severe weather reports for the Tampa Bay area, the Republican National Convention will convene on Monday August 27th and immediately recess until Tuesday afternoon, August 28th, exact time to follow.  Our first priority is ensuring the safety of delegates, alternates, guests, members of the media attending the Republican National Convention, and citizens of the Tampa Bay area. RNC Convention officials and the Romney campaign are working closely with state, local and federal officials, as well as the Secret Service, to monitor Tropical Storm Isaac and preserve Florida’s emergency management resources. Officials have predicted participants may encounter severe transportation difficulties due to sustained wind and rain.  The Republican National Convention will take place and officially nominate Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, and the Party has other necessary business it must address. We also are remaining in constant contact with state and federal officials and may make additional schedule alterations as needed. The Convention staff is working around-the-clock to ensure the delegations housed in storm-impacted areas have alternative housing if needed. The Committee on Arrangements will provide additional information to delegates and alternate delegates who are affected by Isaac by Sunday morning. We will also provide guidance to those delegates and alternate delegates who may encounter travel difficulties due to the storm.  We will begin issuing revised convention programming as early as Sunday.  We have an experienced team that will ensure changes are operationally smooth and create as little disruption as possible.  The most important concern is safety, but our Convention program will proceed. ###

RIP Neil Armstrong

Via Nasa

“On behalf of the entire NASA family, I would like to express my deepest condolences to Carol and the rest of Armstrong family on the passing of Neil Armstrong. As long as there are history books, Neil Armstrong will be included in them, remembered for taking humankind’s first small step on a world beyond our own.

“Besides being one of America’s greatest explorers, Neil carried himself with a grace and humility that was an example to us all. When President Kennedy challenged the nation to send a human to the moon, Neil Armstrong accepted without reservation.

“As we enter this next era of space exploration, we do so standing on the shoulders of Neil Armstrong. We mourn the passing of a friend, fellow astronaut and true American hero.”
