		<description>As posted on the day he spoke, here are two favorites:

&lt;blockquote&gt;YOU WON&#039;T HAVE TO GUESS OR BASE AN OPINION ON SOME BESPECTACLED SO CALLED EXPERT, OR HOLLYWOOD “PROFESSIONAL PRETENDER” WHO DEFINES DANGER AS CROSSING THE STREET, LEAVING CAMPUS, OR HAVING A DECAF LATTE INSTEAD OF A REGULAR. YOUR HEAD WILL NOT BE FILLED WITH THE EMPTY THEORY OF THE OLD PATHETIC SLACKERS WHO TEACH ON MANY CAMPUSES... THE ONES WHO RAN TO CANADA, OR HID OUT IN EUROPE, WHILE MANY OF THE VETS WITH US HERE TODAY PUT IT ALL ON THE LINE IN A PLACE CALLED VIETNAM. THE SNIDE ARROGANT CROWD WHO SPEND THE DAY BLAMING AMERICA FOR EVERY WRONG IN THE WORLD BEFORE GOING HOME TO SLEEP AT NIGHT UNDER THE BLANKET OF FREEDOM PROVIDED BY BETTER MEN! ...BETTER MEN SUCH AS YOU STANDING ON THE GRADUATION FIELD.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

...and

&lt;blockquote&gt;I FOR ONE WILL NEVER...EVER... APOLOGIZE FOR BEING AN AMERICAN AND DON&#039;T YOU EVER FEEL THAT YOU HAVE TO. WE&#039;RE NOT PERFECT BUT I CAN THINK OF NO PLACE BETTER. WE DIDN&#039;T BECOME THE GREAT COUNTRY THAT WE ARE BY ACCIDENT....WE EARNED IT! ---- AND WHILE WE WERE AT IT--- WE KEPT AND CONTINUE TO KEEP A LARGE PORTION OF THE WORLD FREE. AMERICAN BLOOD AND SACRIFICE IS THE INDISPUTABLE PART OF THE WORLD EQUATION. MORE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD ARE TRYING TO COME TO OUR SHORES THAN ANY OTHER COUNTRY. WE REMAIN THE BEACON OF HOPE FOR MANY, AND GOD WILLING IT WILL ALWAYS BE SO. WE&#039;RE NUMBER 1...DON&#039;T APOLOGIZE FOR IT – BE DAMN PROUD OF IT!&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Great Vent Michelle!&lt;/strong&gt;

LTC White speaks of what is so obvious to those who visit Hot Air:  MSM, Academia, and Liberal engaging in sedition while enjoying the freedom and benefits of a great nation protected by those so much better than they are.

WWI and WWII were fought by patriots and Americans who believed in our great nation - and laws were enforced against sedition that made &lt;strong&gt;UNITY&lt;/strong&gt; an important priority.  We Should go back to those times and identify as &lt;strong&gt;Americans&lt;/strong&gt;, with the interests of the United States at heart.

I believe the word &quot;Patriot&quot; is a dirty word in places like San Francisco - and we need to change these attitudes by going back to when Unity was more important than &quot;Multiculturalism&quot;.</description>

		<description>Back in the day, we used to say &quot;what the U.S. Army and the Soviet Army had in common is that they both have political officers&quot;.  COL David Hackworth (an absolutely great American who unfortunately passed away)called them &quot;perfumed princes&quot;.  LTC White is none of the above.  He is the type of commander that looks out for the troops first. He is an absolute inspiration to all.  Bless him and all like him; damned few left.

		<description>Why isn&#039;t LTC White running for public office somewhere? OK, why isn&#039;t he running against Pelosi? (Please feel free to insert the name of your own favorite Democratic incumbant.) Why do we hear more about Cindy Sheehan than we do about heroes like this?</description>

		<description>we have a nephew who graduated from Ft. Benning basic two years ago.  now he&#039;s finishing up (God willing) his first tour in Iraq.  He left for basic a boy, graduated a man.  Left for Iraq a man and is coming home a warrior.  he is our hero.  Leaders like this LTC do this country proud by speaking the plain truth.  HE is a REAL supporter of the troops!!</description>

		<description>What a great speech - makes me want to break out into song (to the tune of, &quot;Alma Mater&quot;)--

&lt;em&gt;High above the Chattahoochee,
Near the Upatois,
Stands our hallowed Alma Mater -
Benning School for Boys!
Forward ever, backward never,
Winners to the end;
To serve our country is our calling,
Hail! Oh, Hail! Fort Ben!&lt;/em&gt;

If one day I ever find myself strolling past my old stompin&#039; grounds at Harmony Church, I&#039;d like to make a quick detour, find the good colonel, buy him a drink and get him to tell me what he &lt;strong&gt;really&lt;/strong&gt; thinks.

PS: Is it just me, or does Michelle keep looking better and better the longer her hair gets?</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What a great speech &#8211; makes me want to break out into song (to the tune of, &#8220;Alma Mater&#8221;)&#8211;</p>
<p><em>High above the Chattahoochee,<br />
Near the Upatois,<br />
Stands our hallowed Alma Mater -<br />
Benning School for Boys!<br />
Forward ever, backward never,<br />
Winners to the end;<br />
To serve our country is our calling,<br />
Hail! Oh, Hail! Fort Ben!</em></p>
<p>If one day I ever find myself strolling past my old stompin&#8217; grounds at Harmony Church, I&#8217;d like to make a quick detour, find the good colonel, buy him a drink and get him to tell me what he <strong>really</strong> thinks.</p>
<p>PS: Is it just me, or does Michelle keep looking better and better the longer her hair gets?</p>

		<description>Let me add that while I fit the demographic that this speech derides, I recognize that these men are my betters and do what little I can to let them know it. It reminds me of a certain St Crispin&#039;s Day speech....

&lt;strong&gt;And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs&#039;d they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin&#039;s day.&lt;/strong&gt;

Shakespeare
Henry V, Act 4, Scene 3</description>

		<description>Sand Hill baby.  E 1/19.

OSUT was the best 14 weeks of my life.  Wake up, eat all you want, and then blow S up all day.  Fire different weapons, roadmarch all over the place, and basically have nothing to worry about.</description>
