John McCain is launching a new campaign video entitled, ‘Safe’. In it he states that he hates war and loves America. He pledges to keep us safe.

JOHN MCCAIN: Only a fool or a fraud talks tough or romantically about war. When I was five years old, my father left for war. My grandfather came home from war and died the next day. I was shot down over Vietnam and spent five years as a POW. Some of the friends I served with never came home.

I hate war. And I know how terrible its costs are.

I’m running for President to keep the country I love safe.

I’m John McCain and I approve this message.

I find it interesting that in the comments on this video at YouTube are pretty vicious. The general theme seems to be that the commenters are voting for Obama because they hate war. Its interesting that people have such a difficult time understanding even the most basic concept that avoiding conflict creates unavoidable conflict. Voting for Obama will undoubtedly increase our risks in the world as he is viewed as an appeaser and a friend of our enemies. You think not? He, himself, has stated that he will open talks with our enemies.

If you are of military age and plan to vote for Obama, you might want to consider what it means for you to have someone in office who will be perceived as weak by our enemies throughout the world.

We all hate war. In a perfect world there would be no war. This isn’t a perfect world.

Petty Officer 2nd Class Adam F. Kinney, a Navy Corpsman with Company E, 2nd Battalion, 24th Marine Regiment, Regimental Combat Team 1, gives an Iraqi Child a shot during a routine patrol. Kinney is assigned to Echo Co. for their seven-month deployment and will return to his parent command, 4th Tank Battalion in Fort Knox, Ky., upon his arrival.

These brave men and women sacrifice so much in their lives so that others may enjoy the freedoms we get to enjoy everyday. For that, I am proud to call them Hero.

Prince Waleed of Saudi Arabia got a new car. When you’re filling up your gas tank, give a thought to Prince Waleed’s needs! See photos below.

Prince Waleed’s Car

Saudi Prince Waleed Bin Talal got himself his 38th car. He personalized it a little, just a few add-ons. You know, to give it some bling-bling. The Mercedes SL600 is diamond-studded, mink-furnished and cost him a mere $4.8 million. Pocket change!

Can you imagine what the Prince looks like driving down the road in that? Does he drive it down the road? I just know I’d be standing on the sidewalk hoping a diamond would come loose and fall off about the time he drove past me.

Give this a thought when you are filling up your gas tank …. I’m sure he appreciates your contribution to his wealth.
