I Pledge Allegiance To The Flag (With A Bellamy Salute)

Oh, the irony of it all.

Indivisible? Dude, Com’on. I know how embarrassing that must have been… choking when making a speech in front of red-meat starving idolaters. Wait, that’s right. That’s what you do for a living.

So what caused the man’s little mis-quote? Why would he not be able to remember the one word, “indivisible”?

Because that particular party, especially that faction of it (and the Demo’s are just as guilty but don’t have the same red-meat starving idolaters smacking their lips over such roadkill) are set up to DIVIDE. THAT is what they do. That is what the fake two party system is intended to do… keep just enough of the air heads on both sides divided so they can pass the mantle back and forth every 4 to 8 years.

When will you wake up?

As I was re-reading information on the Pledge of Allegiance, just to see how well Rep Akin’s research is conducted before these embarrassing speeches, I came across something I had never seen before (and Akin and most others conveniently fail to discuss, but is poignant in our current times): we were instructed way back to use the Bellamy Salute when making this pledge.

What do you think?

Bellamy Salute During Pledge of Allegiance

Somehow or another, I am not surprised.

The Perils of War within ones mind–

I had met two very young men/soldiers directly after these insane and non-justified wars began. These two lads met in Iraq. They both were somber and had just gotten matching tatoos. “Only the dead see the end of war” Plato.
There is blood on the hands of many many people for these things, along with the ’silent’ voters!!!

Fort Hood has felt the strain of repeated deployments
Base leads Army posts in number of suicides since Iraq invasion

Fort Hood, the Texas military base that was the scene of a mass shooting Thursday, has been hard hit by the growing strain on the Army from multiple combat deployments — with its personnel suffering the highest number of suicides among Army installations since the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003, according to official data– 8,000+.

After many years of lengthy war zone rotations in Iraq and Afghanistan, Army personnel are experiencing record rates of suicide, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and other mental health problems, as well as worsening alcohol and drug abuse.

The psychological toll on the all-volunteer force today is unprecedented, Army officials say, acknowledging that they do not know how much the Army can sustain before it breaks — making the health of the force a major consideration in President Obama’s current deliberations over sending more U.S. troops to Afghanistan.
It’s unclear what motivated the Army psychiatrist who is thought to have opened fire on fellow soldiers Thursday, although it’s clear he had worked in settings where the effects of combat stress were pervasive.
A small but increasing number of soldiers undergoing the mental strain of repeated combat deployments are taking lives — often their own.
This year, 117 active-duty Army soldiers were reported to have committed suicide, with 81 of those cases confirmed — up from 103 suicides during the same period last year. Ten suicides have been reported at Fort Hood this year; more than 75 of its personnel have committed suicide last year. Fort Hood’s high number of suicides is also linked to the fact that it is the Army’s largest base, with more than 53,000 soldiers.
These numbers do not include the extended deaths of wives being killed due to PTSD. An estimated 30 percent of those returning from combat suffer mental health symptoms such as depression, anxiety and post-traumatic stress. Such problems grow worse with repeated deployments and the constant exposure to danger and the sights, smells and emotions of seeing others killed or wounded, according to Army mental health surveys.
Those who treat the mentally wounded, including doctors such as Hasan, are not immune from the symptoms. It is not uncommon for therapists who treat patients for post-traumatic stress disorder to experience some symptoms vicariously after hearing account after account of the horrors of the battlefield.

Hasan was a psychiatry intern at Walter Reed Army Medical Center from June 2003 to July 2009, Army officials said. In that position, he probably treated soldiers with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Violent outbursts such as shootings by soldiers at Army bases have occurred in recent years, including at Fort Hood, where several killings were reported over the past two years.
Historically, one of the worst shooting incidents involving soldiers took place Oct. 27, 1995, at Towle Stadium at Fort Bragg, N.C., when a soldier opened fire on paratroopers in a formation, killing one Army officer and wounding 18 others
