Some of these folks, especially the E8/E9's and senior officers no doubt remember what the last Democrat President did to them.
"I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do this to others and I require the same from them"

If history repeats itself, watch for the absentee ballot debacle by our active duty armed forces, they were nit picked for postage, postmark, phony deadlines and local district qualifications.. and every attempt to "disqualify them" was attempted.

BUT ACORN is a community group with the best intentions,....... >:(

This election will be something to watch.
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

I lived the Clinton years.  Read "Dereliction of Duty"  by Lt. Col. "Buzz" Patterson (Ret.)   He was a military aid to Clinton.  Scary...very scary.  And B-HO with be 10 times worse.
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

I never have enough time to read.  What were a couple of the high points?

Let's see..

- No military uniforms in the White house (Hilary)

- Staffers didn't know that all military officers had college degrees...imagine when they found out what the enlisted numbers were

- Stranded thousands of troops in the Gulf from their scheduled rotation home.  Bill up and decided to go to China on short notice and commandeered a good chunk of Air Force airlift to get him, Hillary and Chelsey there.  I was one of many who were stuck in the sandbox for nearly a month longer and found out two days before we were scheduled to leave.

And the really awesome one...

- Bill blew off nailing Osama Bin laden, with jets loaded and running and on-site intelligence of his location...TWICE!

...just to name a few.
