I am going to break my silence this one time because I believe this is important.

Mr. Kaine,

I want to thank you for the response. I want to thank you, not for the apology, but because it wasn't necessary and you did it anyways. That sir, is very honorable and I thank you.

I also want to point out that as long as you and I agree on what we want for this country, how we get there is always open for discussion. I also want to point out, I do not advocate violence especially against Americans, and I also agree with you that if war is hell, a civil war in this country would be much much worse! I cannot think of anything I would want less.

I stand with you Mr. Kaine and everyone else who want nothing more than PEACE, our Liberty, and our Constitution first and foremost.

Thank you again sir, it means a lot to both of us.

Col. Baus Major (USAF)

I just double checked it, this link works, don't know what happened to the last one...

Fellow Americans,

I am nothing without my integrity, and I made a promise that should 5 people doubt our intentions or who we say we are, we would gladly step aside for the sake of the conservative movement, and it is clear from the posts recently that we have become a hindrance. So let it be done.

I want to leave you all with this article I saw out of Canada of all places. It is pretty sad when those looking in can see so much better than we can, what is happening to this country and just how far along we are. I challenge you, should you have enjoyed, agreed, or even disagreed with what we have said, to read this in it's ENTIRETY.

Many thanks to all of the soldiers and patriots on this site, you make us so proud to be Americans. To the people on this site who have disagreed with us and even said some fairly inappropriate things - you know who you are and you know you would NEVER have the courage to say any of those things to my wife or I in person - I also thank you, because you ARE the reason this country IS so great, because of your right to disagree even if it is offensive. Please do not ever apologize for exercising that right!

Take care,

Col. Baus Major USAF - signing off.

Here is the article - <a href="http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/..." target="_blank">http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/...

P.S. This is the only post that will remain from my wife and I after today...

Sarge,

Congrats on getting censored Soldier! Starting to wonder why you fought to defend your right to free speech? Starting to think you are going to have to again?

Col.

Nicole,

Thank you so much for the reply, I agree with you about this site, and it really is a shame. I want you to know I deleted the post, I know all too well what happens when a military mom gets mad, I am married to one. More importantly, I agree with you that the reason for our stagnation IS because we always seem to get lost in the proverbial soup as you described above.

I will always welcome an 'honest disagreement' with you anytime, so long as we never lose sight of why we are here... Our country, our Constitution, and our families.

Please give your son my regards and let him know we are proud of him and to know he is not alone.

Col.

Don,

I thank you for your service sir. I can understand and appreciate your position, and I know you stand ready. Thank you again.

Col.

Dave,

You are dead-on with the last 14 words of that statement, even more than you know.

Thank you Corporal and I want to thank you for your service. I really don't think people realize that to us the risk of us speaking out is inconsequential compared with the risk we take by NOT speaking out and losing this country.

Oooooh Raaaahhh. Semper Fi Soldier!

Col.

Ma'am,

If I know my wife, and I do, she will be back shortly. She is obviously passionate and sometimes that gets the better of her judgment. Plus she is really hating her job at the moment.

Col. Baus Major USAF

Thank you soldier! I know I am not, because of my brothers in arms just like you. Thank you for YOUR service to this country and god forbid I should ever have to stand shoulder to shoulder with you in defense of this country and it's Constitution on domestic soil, know that it will be MY honor to serve with you.

Stand tall and proud soldier, we will not let your efforts be in vain!

I have ZERO doubt you could whip this old man on the range but I seem to remember recently being able to put a six-pack inside 6" at 1k meters with my 50 cal. long rifle! Like I said, I know you could whip me.
