Folks, this list is quite unique as it has content that are almost always of profound interest to other members, oftentimes not about Commanders but always about the group’s interests. It’s more like a fire-side chat than a technical list. And when people with common interests and passions sit together and talk, many a profound thing is exchanged. We talk about Commanders (first and foremost) but also about aviation in general, aircraft systems, engines, navaids, others’ experiences, life loves, others who had an unequal number of take-offs and landings, politics, morals, and sometimes even religion. Those who are offended leave and they even leave with decorum. Those who have remained with us over the years have forged an invisible (to some) familial bond that is hard to describe, but wholly unnecessary to define. Not everyone agrees with what is said but an unspoken rule of respect prevails without sowing discord or insult. It’s indeed unique, enjoyable, and a privilege.
Everyone who has been on this list for a while knows that I, like so many others, am a patriot of this country in the extreme and not ashamed to proclaim that whenever I have a chance. But what does that mean? The best I can convey that to you, my family, is with a conversation I had with Rush Limbaugh last Monday. I didn’t get to say everything I wanted, which is quite understandable considering the time issues with that medium, but that Rush gave me more than 6 minutes was in itself quite an achievement.
In this time of war, which I believe was perfectly justified and necessary, assistance to our troops is of paramount importance, calling all of us to find some manner in which we can express our gratitude. I chose the manner of my support as I described it to Rush. Some of you might be interested in it. If you believe it’s appropriate, please pass this on. We have already cut our first check for MCLEF and hope to do it again at the end of November.

Nico, I personally agree with everything you have said. We are in world war three but it is a war like we have never had to fight before and people just don't understand it. We are like the British were in our revolutionary war, they were used to having people march out and stand face to face and fight and we are used to being able to see who we are fighting. In this war we don't see who our enemy is until they have struck and it may be some one we thought was our friend and have been in this country for a long time. If that is not bad enough like you said we have people that are trying to take over and destroy us from within, liberals.
Sorry but I get on my band box when these people start trying to take away my freedoms. I was in the Air Force and when you see that flag go up and down on a military base and it does not make your spine tingle there is something wrong. I love this country and don't want it destroyed.
Sorry if I seem to be rambling but I got to bed near midnight and woke up at three.

Nico,
Well said and appropriate for this Veterans Day. Your discussion with Rush is indeed insightful and informative for those who have not thought this through. Apathy is the “disease” that will get us in the end unless we fight it. Activism is the tool of the liberal minority and they have proven it works. Our conservative “behinds” must get up and go to work speaking, writing, and participating in the fight to keep our freedoms intact. Just take a look at the freedoms of flight that are slowly being eroded by our F’nAA and the big commercial airlines. They will not give up as long as we allow them to succeed!!! Whatever happened to “The majority rules”? One outspoken liberal can take away our freedoms one board at a time if we the conservative majority continue to do nothing and only wish them away. I only hope that in my lifetime I won’t be required to run my passengers through a gauntlet of searches and documentation that are constantly being proposed as well as being required to pay a fee each time I leave the ground.
Well, enough. I’m going flying!
Regards,
Steve Gilson

Nico,
I wish I was better with words, and that we could still enjoy a beer together while disagreeing entirely. Before saying anything, I believe your deep feelings for the country are entirely genuine, and your motivations honorable. (Do you ever believe this of the other 'side'?)There is something of great value there. But the passionate hatred of half of your countrymen is alarming. Do you guys honestly believe all that crap about liberals being out to take down your country? That they hate freedom? That they want the terrorists to win? There's no shortage of you guys telling each other that. But have you ever talked to a 'liberal' and aksed what it was they wanted? What they dreamed of for their country? Have you ever researched what liberalism even is? For that matter, have you (guys) ever checked to see that you really are conservative? Something might be going wrong if the best and brightest conservative thinkers are chugging up one track, while self-professed 'conservatives' are speeding the train somewhere else entirely. When George Will, Buckley and Buchanon are turning around to see where the rest of the train has gone, there might be a problem with modern conservatism. It's looking a lot more like fascism. How many freedoms were lost under liberals? I am not going to live a life in fear of terrorist bogeymen. I am not going to change radically my notions of what passes for freedom. This idea that this is World War Three is ridiculus. We withstood a civil war, two real world wars, and the Soviet empire, without radically changing our society.
My wife and I built our house with a local carpenter, after I cleared our land. He's a good guy and we liked him a lot, and the feeling was mutual. We worked together through rain and snow and sub-zero temperatures building our house. He would arrive at our site in a cheerful mood. Each morning after listening to his favorite morning broadcaster, he became angrier and angrier, cursing liberals and everything they stood for. The hatred and vitriol coming from the radio was alarming, and I wondered both how so many could believe what they were hearing as fact; and why people wished to listen to something that made them so angry day after day. While we are not liberals in the new sense of the word, we disagreed with an awful lot of what we heard. And of course if you disagree you are against freedom and for the terrorists, and for those that wish to bring our country down. It was very awkward.
Citizens must watch carefully when leaders set up bogeymen and perpetual war, and act in the name of protecting freedom while proclaiming that those that disagree are the enemy. I've met a lot of people too, who profess deeply held religious beliefs of love and compassion, but act essentially in their own self interest.
(P.S. I'm not a liberal, I'm not a conservative, and I was not raised a Christian. I believe that much of what the radical left believes is as goofy as the radical right. Good old fashioned conservatives and liberals were excellent when kept in balance. But some folks nowadays are taking the ball and running in completely wacky directions. That there should be unlimited and unregulated immigration is just plain stupid. That we should even be debating torture is apalling.)

HI Steve,
I beg the indulgence of the listers.
You are ok with words, don’t worry about that. We are not in disagreement on many of the issues and we could quite peacefully have a beer. You didn’t resort to insults in your response, which I appreciate, but, then again, you did say you are not a liberal. Your decorum is appreciated. Thank you for that.
Let me preface my response by saying, unchecked power in either direction is undesirable. But conservatism is not balanced by liberalism, but by accountability; I assume as liberalism would be. The task of accountability rests with the media, but the media, the watchdogs of society, has become the attack dogs and safe-deposit boxes for the liberals, so no real accountability has been practiced for more than 50 years on either ideology.
Something you said piqued my interest, and that is “…we are not liberals in the new sense of the word…” The word “liberal” in the old sense, means, in short, one who is a ‘free thinker’. I’d like to think about myself as one with a free will that think freely inside and outside the box. So, in the old sense of the word, I guess I would be a liberal. In the new sense, however, there is no chance that I would be considered a liberal. It is because the meaning of the word has been stripped from the language and replaced with another meaning that is meant to soothe real free thinkers into believing that the same principles apply as before, which is not the case. Instead, the real, covert meaning is only revealed by intense scrutiny and hard questions, a few of which I ask below.
Similar concepts have been taken away from the language by overwhelming media coverage, to mean foreign things, such as the word ‘gay’. A couple of decades ago it meant to be happy; today it means to be a homosexual. I realize and accept that there are people who have different sexual orientations than I do and I don’t care one way or the other, just as much as I expect others not to care one way or the other that I am straight, which is another word that has been violently stripped of its meaning. I don’t want to get involved into a gay-straight debate but just to illustrate the usurpation of benign words making them malignant.
Anyone who, today, claims to be gay would imply homosexuality and whether one intends to mean happiness would be meaningless. It would be the current understanding of the word that applies. Equally foolish would be to refer to oneself as a liberal in the old sense, while the label of contemporary liberalism would apply. So, it is to the liberal in the modern sense that I refer when I speak about liberals.
You asked many good questions. I don’t want to argue every one of them at this point, but I’d like to ponder on them for a while to be sure that I do justice to your questions and respond at another time. In the mean time, however, let me ask, with the motive of illustrating also my position, some questions with which I struggle.
Why would a modern liberal presidential candidate make utterances that are indistinguishable from that of Karl Marx and the media do not report them as such?
Why would liberal politicians maintain that taxes have to be increased to raise more money for the treasury, while exactly the opposite proved to raise more money?
Why would news about successes in the war in Iraq appear deep inside the print media instead of on the front pages where they belong?
Why would 41 senators sign a petition, based on inaccurate information, to sensor a private citizen’s right to free speech?
Why would a US president allow secret missile technology to be sold to one of the country’s archenemies?
Why would liberals advocate policies that would remove from parents the choice in the education of their children?
Why would a sitting president be called a “liar” and having deceived the people into war after congress voted twice to give him that authority and the UN Security Council voted unanimously for the same thing, while when pres. Clinton engaged Bosnia in a war, the majority leader of the then republican-controlled senate said that he is not prepared to criticize a sitting president in a time of war? (I believe it was Trent Lott, I cannot remember but I can look it up for you).
Why would presenting a valid ID to vote be so fiercely opposed by liberals when the ballot box is the very artery of our existence depending on its purity to express the wishes of the citizens of this country?
Why would liberals be so eager to confer amnesty upon millions of people with marginal economic ability unless they are expected to automatically become candidates supporting liberal policies? You already expressed opposition to this, but that only clarifies your position, not that of the liberals. You ought to join me in this fight.
Why would liberals be so eager to allow people who are illegally in the country to vote for representatives unless it is to acquire those votes for their candidates?
Why are liberals eager to pacify Muslims but are quick and readily prepared to vilify Christians?
Steve, I have so many other questions that impugn the patriotism of modern-day liberals, to which one only gets diversionary insults when challenged, that one cannot but believe that they are not in politics for the sake of the country, which you and I love, but for the sake of obtaining and holding on to absolute power, regardless of the means and the lives it cost.
Once the ballot box and the courts have been placed beyond the reach of the legal voting public by allowing unidentified people to vote and adding convicts and illegal immigrants to the voter rolls, do you think that the silent majority would accept this foreign culture and just go on? That was my question. I believe not. That is why I believe that Rush Limbaugh’s crusade of more than 20 years, has retained the option of the ballot box for our children and us as an instrument of peaceful change, without having to rise up against the authorities to take back that which was fraudulently taken from us. Rush does not show up for work to make people angry (that is entirely your carpenter’s own demeanor at work), but to confirm what people already knew and believed, longing to hear confirmation of their beliefs in the public arena of ideas. And, come to think of it, Steve, Rush only says what he sees and hears and the liberals are armed to take him down. Why? Does the mirror appear to reflect to the liberals an image that they don’t want you and I to know about? It certainly appears to be the case.
I stand by what I said, “Rush has single-handedly prevented this country’s second civil war.” Many followed in his footsteps, or in his trenches, so to speak, and made a difference. For that we ought to be very grateful.
Respectfully,
Nico

All of this sounds awfully fanatical to me. And it's downright scary
to even think of voicing any opposing opinion.......Lest One be
construed as someone trying to destroy One's country....
In the words of Winston Churchill....."A fanatic is someone that
redoubles their effort once they've lost sight of their goals."
Airplane talk is so much more interesting.......

Nico,
Your call To Rush was the best summary of what is happening to my/our beloved United States. I only regret not having the presence of mind to have put it so succinctly. These liberal activists are insane mad men and women - how so many are fooled by their gibberish is amazing. I honestly think it is time to clean the House (of representatives) and the Senate too for that matter. We have created a political aristocracy without conscience or morality that is destroying our Nation. It is truly seditionist in my view.
These liberals are dangerous and must thrown from the steps of the Capital as you would a drunk out of a saloon.

Relative to the election/court corruption, take a look at what happened here in WA in 2004. I think you’ll be shocked.
It was the proximate cause of the president firing some of the US Attys, also.
It would be nice to live in a democratic republic again, rather than a Democratic Republic.

Nico,
Your call To Rush was the best summary of what is happening to my/our beloved United States. I only regret not having the presence of mind to have put it so succinctly. These liberal activists are insane mad men and women - how so many are fooled by their gibberish is amazing. I honestly think it is time to clean the House (of representatives) and the Senate too for that matter. We have created a political aristocracy without conscience or morality that is destroying our Nation. It is truly seditionist in my view.
These liberals are dangerous and must thrown from the steps of the Capital as you would a drunk out of a saloon.

Folks, this list is quite unique as it has content that are almost always of profound interest to other members, oftentimes not about Commanders but always about the group’s interests. It’s more like a fire-side chat than a technical list. And when people with common interests and passions sit together and talk, many a profound thing is exchanged. We talk about Commanders (first and foremost) but also about aviation in general, aircraft systems, engines, navaids, others’ experiences, life loves, others who had an unequal number of take-offs and landings, politics, morals, and sometimes even religion. Those who are offended leave and they even leave with decorum. Those who have remained with us over the years have forged an invisible (to some) familial bond that is hard to describe, but wholly unnecessary to define. Not everyone agrees with what is said but an unspoken rule of respect prevails without sowing discord or insult. It’s indeed unique, enjoyable, and a privilege.
Everyone who has been on this list for a while knows that I, like so many others, am a patriot of this country in the extreme and not ashamed to proclaim that whenever I have a chance. But what does that mean? The best I can convey that to you, my family, is with a conversation I had with Rush Limbaugh last Monday. I didn’t get to say everything I wanted, which is quite understandable considering the time issues with that medium, but that Rush gave me more than 6 minutes was in itself quite an achievement.
In this time of war, which I believe was perfectly justified and necessary, assistance to our troops is of paramount importance, calling all of us to find some manner in which we can express our gratitude. I chose the manner of my support as I described it to Rush. Some of you might be interested in it. If you believe it’s appropriate, please pass this on. We have already cut our first check for MCLEF and hope to do it again at the end of November.

Let me know what you think.
Thanks

PS. Some years ago someone on the list questioned whether I really exist. Well, I guess, now the cat is out of the bag…

Ah! At last. Something from the list.
I posted some messages this week and for some reason they just disappeared into never land. I’ll see if this one is posted.

AMEN!! I just read where the head of NASA (they own the satellites that measure temp, ocean levels etc) said in a press release that the is simply no proof of "global warning". In fact, in a related piece , the recorded mid level temps have fallen .036 deg in the last 20 years!! That may be why we hear less about "global warming" and more the phrase "Global climate change??

For what ever it is worth. We need to elect some Americans to congress and the White House and throw these other idiots ( career politicians) out of our country, which they have grossly abused with their own person agenda`s. (ie. GREED and lack of love for this Country) Just got back from Peru and I can tell you as a result of all of my foreign travels. This is the best country in the world and we need to do every thing possible to KEEP it this way. GOD BLESS AMERICA& WE NEED YOUR HELP! Some of the things congress and the MEDIA have said and done would have been TREASON and penalty by DEATH during WW2 .
