Let me first congratulate my opponents on a fine campaign run by both of them.  They truly have done well, considering what they have to work with. I don’t have the advantage of years of submarine service (you do know what they say about Navy men, don’t you?).  Nor do I have the ability to […]

McCain gets pwned!

Filed in National by on July 14, 2008 10 Comments

In this campaign, there are honest differences over Iraq, and we should discuss them with the thoroughness they deserve. Unlike Senator McCain, I would make it absolutely clear that we seek no presence in Iraq similar to our permanent bases in South Korea, and would redeploy our troops out of Iraq and focus on the […]

Another “why I am DHB” WIADHB

Filed in National by on July 14, 2008 8 Comments

so hopefully you read the first installment of WIADHB and enjoyed it.  I think I may continue on with the story.  It may be a little cathartic for me and a little revealing to you all as to what makes DHB tick. I remember the first day of boot camp, actually the first evening really.  […]

What kind of bike did you have growing up? I remember having a few.  The one I was most proud of was my “Macho II”.  I had that thing decked out man.  Hutch handle bars, shimano pedals, Uni seat….then it got stolen at the ACME in Fairfax….

Random Observations From The Road

Filed in National by on July 13, 2008 13 Comments

Having just returned from a jaunt into and around a sliver of America I have just a couple of unrelated observations to make: 1) Nobody knows or cares about what Barack Obama or John McCain are up to right now.

I am DHB because I am a veteran.  I served my country and I did so honorably.  I was a storekeeper aboard the SSN 708 Minneapolis-St. Paul.  At 19 years old I left my three DAY old daughter behind to make a better life for my girlfriend, daughter and myself.  I will never forget that day.  […]
