Reflections of An Uncommon Common Man

  This question has been pondered by historians for years. What if the South had won the Civil War? This is convenient for leftist historians. They can pit North against South when it was actually a war between the Democrat party and Republican party. It was a war that is still going on today and when it comes to how history is interpreted the Republican's are losing badly. The Republican's won on the battlefield but lost the peace which was Reconstruction. Usually the victor of a war writes the accepted version of history. The Democrat party is responsible for two of the most blatant misinterpretations of American history. The "Lost Cause Myth" and The Big Switch Myth".  These lies allows the left to cover up for a multitude of sins and to project their sins upon the modern Republican party and Constitutional conservatives like myself. It enables them to tell the big lie that yes the Democrat party was the party of slavery, the Trail Of Tears, lynching, the fo...

  It was August 1968, and a broiling hot day at Lackland AFB Texas. My training Flight was lying in the prone position waiting for the command to commence. firing from the range T.I. or Training Instructor. While milling around waiting for our turn to fire, our T.I. had asked all of us where we were from. I told him Tennessee and a kid next to me said North Carolina. He said "Well we got a couple of Alvin York's in our midst". I looked at the kid from North Carolina and he had the same scared look on his face that I am sure that I had.

I never hit the bottle.. Now, I was getting ready to fire an M-16 rifle capable of both semi-automatic and fully automatic fire. If there is such...

 I will never forget the day in the Spring of 1971, while stationed at Erhac Turkey, We had just returned from the firing range and were cleaning our weapons. There was a group of us, both black and white Security Policemen, gathered in a trailer and talking about our favorite singers as we worked. One of our group was a white guy that we nicknamed "Pilgrim" because he was from Massachusetts. Someone said that their favorite singer was James Brown. Incredibly Pilgrim blurted out. ""I don't like James Brown. He's a nigger". Suddenly all of the air was sucked out of the room for a moment. All of us, black and white, turned and looked at him in a state of shock. Pilgrim continued cleaning his rifle as if he was unaware of what he had just said. Then he suddenly looked up with an aw shit look on his face as the realization of where he was at and what he had said hit home . Just then all hell broke loose as some of the blacks closest to Pilgrim trie...
