Gold Star Mothers

#1 Postby bfez1 » Thu May 01, 2003 9:44 am

You really should be sitting down when you read this one.
Gold Star Mothers is an organization made up of women
whose sons were
killed in military combat during service in the United
States armed
forces.

Recently a delegation of New York State Gold Star Mothers
made a trip to
Washington, DC, to discuss various concerns with their
elected
representatives.

According to published reports, there was only one
politician who refused
to meet with these ladies.

Can you guess which politician that might be?

Was it New York Senator Charles Schumer? Nope, he met
with them.

Try again.
Do you know anyone serving in the Senate who has never
showed anything but
contempt for our military?

Do you happen to know the name of any politician in
Washington who's
husband once wrote of his loathing for the GN=ilitary?
Now you're getting
warm! You got it!

None other than the Queen herself, Hillary Rotten Clinton.
She refused
repeated requests to meet with the Gold Star Mothers.

Now, please don't tell me you're surprised. This woman
wants to be
President of the United States --- and there is a huge
percentage of
Voters who are eager to help her achieve that goal.

May you sleep in peace always...and please...hug or thank
a Veteran for
that privilege.

Think about this one !!!
Don't forget, our girl, Hillary Rodham Clinton, as a New
York Senator, now
comes under this fancy congressional Retirement and
Staffing Plan.

It's common knowledge that, in order for her to establish
NYS residency,
they purchased a million+ dollar house in upscale
Chappaqua, NY. Makes
sense.

Now, they are entitled to Secret Service protection for
life. Still makes
sense.

Here's where it becomes interesting. The mortgage payments
hover at about
$10,000 per month. BUT, an extra residency had to be built
within the
acreage in order to house the Secret Service agents.

The Clinton's now charge the Secret Service $10,000
monthly rent for the
use of said Secret Service residence and that rent is just
about equal to
their mortgage payment, ........meaning that we, the tax
payers, are
paying the Clinton's mortgage, their transportation, their
safety and
security, their 12 man staff, and it's all perfectly
legal.

Sincerely, Cdr. Hamilton McWhorter USN (ret)

Seems she would not meet with these Mothers but yet she bashed Bush at a recent public meeting. She tries to portray herself as a "disciplined politician." Too bad she could not keep her President hubby inline.

I don't know about the rest of you.....but this really makes me A-N-G-R-Y ! :x

I really work hard at my job.....have been working for 40 years now.....and there's LOTS of things I simply cannot afford! LOTS of things! It sickens me that a huge part of my hard-earned wages go toward allowed behavior such as this. The reckless handling of every American taxpayers dollars has reached epidemic proportions........and it should make every one of us hoppin' mad!

I remember reading that Hillary was interviewed very soon after the horrific 9-11 incident. Her "story" was about how worried she was concerning her daughter who was jogging very near the Twin Towers at the time of the crashes. She sobbed into the microphone about her "motherly concerns".......told how Chelsea was almost injured by falling debris......on and on........

A few days later, another reporter posted his interview with Chelsea. Seems she was in a friends apartment many blocks away and heard about the Towers from the TV.

What is it about some of our citizens that they cannot see how this lady seems to operate??............p :(

I remember directing and escorting Gold Star mothers to a church here in town when I was still active with the American Legion...they deserve far better treatment than that.
