Rod this is a fantastic article and it seems you have hit the nerves of some liberals on here because they cannot handle the truth. If some of you on here think he is so stupid then you should call his radio show The Rod Eccles Show which airs Mon-Fri 7-9 PM EST and the number to call is 603-835-3224. He would love to speak with you.

Commented On Would The Fair Tax Kill Obamacare?
Sir I enjoyed you comments on the Fairtax, very thoughtful ones. I had not thought of the Fairtax in relation to the ACM and yes the ACM tax would be affected by the amendments of the Tax Code eliminating the IRS and its tax collection duties. So even the ACM ta would still exist, there would not be any mechanism to gather information and collect it. Your fears of having both an Income tax or Vat tax plus the Fairtax are reasonable but not likely because first because the law implementing the Income tax and the IRS is repealed by the Fairtax and once we go even one year without the income tax I cannot imagine any one wanting it back, but if the companion bill repealing the XV1 Amendment is not passed in seven years then the Fairtax is automatically repealed.

Commented On Pray / Believing
My heart cried when I heard the news about Jimmy. He was such a help to me when my husband was on his death bed. Jimmy spent more than an hour praying over Jim as he lie in the bed dying! He helped me in more ways than I can express. After hearing his sermon last Sunday, I was thankful that I have the privilege to know such a great man of God. Most people, upon hearing the diagnosis, would curse God and question the reason. Jimmy, instead, praised God for all the blessing that God gave to him throughout his life. What an inspiration!

Commented On D-Day: A Time to Remember
My comment was part of a larger article not yet published on BCN. Just a quick point of clarification:
I in no way feel my experience was in any way comparable to those who stormed the beaches of Normandy or the Pacific. My comment is reflective of combat any troupes who are embarking on a dangerous and possibly deadly mission. I guess my point was that each soldier has his own individual personal Gordian Knot regardless of the number involved in the assault and each deals with it in his very own unique way. |

Commented On D-Day: A Time to Remember
Though my war was 24 years after D-day, I remember the exact feeling of flying to a landing zone in a Huey instead of a Landing Craft on the beach. The technology was different but the anxiety was most likely the same. I can only imagine the feelings of those young men in the landing craft, but I think I have some understanding of their thoughts and fears as they wait:
"There is an eerie calm that descends on young men when they wait for the disembark order. In just a few seconds, you will meet either your maker or your enemy. You are highly trained, well practiced, fully supplied, and motivated. There is no noise among the brothers to your right or left. They like you are lost in their thoughts of home, girlfriends, or whatever. I would be tempted to say that there is loneliness in the crowd, but that would not be accurate. There is a lifetime ahead if you are lucky to be lonely. There is only a sense of purpose and one final equipment check, and then they flip the switch. It is similar to stepping from total darkness into bright sunlight or stepping in to total darkness from bright sunlight. All the planning and preparation give way and you are dependent on a few eighteen to twenty year old's who you may not ever have liked in civilian life but today you put your life in their hands and vice a versa. Here you meet your destiny. The only reward for this is that you will survive to do it all over again and perhaps years later you will have the satisfaction of knowing you did your duty."

Commented On A Memorial Day Introduction: Tony Meet Eddy Schultz
Thanks, Lynne for the link to the interview. It provides a personal real time memory of Eddy during this Memorial Day season. For the readers, below is a picture of Lynne and Doc Ken Blakely who was also present at the firefight at Hoc Mon, Vietnam. Ken presently lives in Arizona but took the time to make contact with Lynne on a family visit back to California.
If you look at the link in the article showing the KIA and WIA, you will see: HHC WIA:Medic PFC Ken" "Doc" Blakely who was wounded while tending to his troopers. Ken has made it his mission to minister to his personal Band of Brothers (To Ken every veteran and relative is included in his ministry) and their relatives. Just as he did in Vietnam, he answered the call for "Medic" and provides the support 48 plus years later to all who are in need.. Here are his comments regarding his visit with Lynne: "I had the honor of visiting the niece of Ed Schultz who was more like a sister to Ed as they we close in age. Ed got killed in Hoc Mon 3-4-68 with Charlie Co as we in Delta Co fought for our lives as well. Lynne Higgins has written a book about her Uncle and tells his story in "The Box" it can be purchased at Amazon.com. A wonderful visit .. Thank you Lynne God bless you and your family. A fellow medic and friend was Ed's medic Andy Wahrenbrock..a great medic." Doc Ken  |

Commented On And They're Off !! The First GOP Presidential Debate Proves the Party Will Have a Strong Presence in 2016
Agree with most of your analysis. I think the interesting thing right now is the list of frontrunners for the GOP. You've got "the Donald", Cruz, Carson, and Fiorino. Three are non-politicians and the only politician is a non-establishment man. I thought that Bush and Rubio were thrown softballs in this debate by Fox. I was disappointed we didn't see a lot of policy discussion on immigration, Obamacare, the Iran deal, etc... Just a whole lot of "gotcha" questions unless your name was Rubio or Bush. The treatment of Carson, Walker, Cruz and Paul as a whole was to marginalize them. As far as Megyn Kelly goes, I used to watch her show...the key being used to...I think she was too biased and too busy trying to make herself look good.
