Ronald Reagan Comic Book Coming Soon!

I know that I am a girl and should not be a fan of comic books, but I have loved them since I was kid.  I loved having such great visuals to go with such great stories.  I loved them all from Archie, horror genre and, of course, the superhero comics.  I am a DC person, but do enjoy the occassional Marvel and independent.  I know comics are not for everyone, but soon there will be a comic that every conservative will want to have a copy of not only for themselves, but for their kids as well.  There is no better way to introduce indoctrinated kids to one of the best American presidents – Ronald Reagan – than a comic book.

Bluewater Productions will be releasing Political Power Ronald Reagan, written by Don Smith who has made a name for himself interviewing creators and performers in the world of science fiction, comic books and entertainment with CosmicBookNews.com, ToyFare magazine and Wizard Entertainment. He now has jumped to the “other side of the table” as a writer for a bio-comic about Ronald Reagan as part of Bluewater Productions Political Power series. The issue, penned by Smith, was illustrated by Scott Woodward. The cover art was provided by award-winning artist Azim Akberal.

Don Smith joins me on the Freedom’s Wings Show on Thursday at 6pm ET.  We’ll discuss the comic book and the story of Ronald Reagan. The website asks, “Was the Soviet Union an “Evil Empire?” Was President Ronald Reagan at the right place and right time when it collapsed? Or was he one of the shrewdest occupants of the White House? Find out how this Mid-Western-turned-actor-turned-President went from B-movies to orchestrating the total collapse of the Soviet Union.”  You do not want to miss this!  Find out more about the comic here.  And listen to the show here.

 

CMA Awards Not PC, And I Loved It!

The Country Music Awards was on the television last night.  Usually I do not partake in awards shows, but last night I found myself stalling on the CMAs as I flipped channels.  And I am glad I did because there were two moments during the evening that were not politically correct and I enjoyed them.

The hosts for the evening were Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley.  The performed a little duet at the beginning of the show sung to the tune of “Mommas Don’t Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys” and it went something like this:

Mommas, don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys,

Let them be cowboys who have manners and such.

The other PC moment of the evening was also a dig at Kanye West.  Taylor Swift won the final award of the evening and her closing statement was, “And thank you to everybody in here who didn’t rush up onto the stage.”

Country music could teach Hip Hop and rap a thing or two.  Not the country musicians are perfect, but the truth is that their videos do not objective women as just simple sexual creatures to be manhandled and taken.  They do not flash gang symbols and wear gangster clothing.  They do not beat their women like Chris Brown.  They do not rush the stage and interrupt a young eighteen-year-olds acceptance speech to drunkenly tell the crowd who they think should have won – like anyone cares.  Country singers honor our troops with more than the obligatory thanks.  They fly overseas to entertain the troops.  They honor our country and the flag.  They write songs about honor and glory and country and freedom, instead of songs about cop killing, drugs and bitches.

Yep, country music is not real PC and so neither were their awards and I loved it!

Happy Veterans Day 2009!

A filmmaker friend of mine forwarded this to me and I thought I would share.  That filmmaker is Jack Marino, director and writer of the movie Forgotten Heroes.  Check it out here.

America’s forgotten heroes
Exclusive: Andrea Shea King remembers the brave who served in Vietnam
Posted: November 10, 2009
6:42 pm Eastern

On Jan. 10, 1970, U.S. Army Capt. Herbert C. Crosby disappeared without a trace.

“Herby” Crosby was piloting “Firebird 91,” a UH1C Iroquois Huey helicopter combat gunship in Vietnam. He was leading three Hueys returning from Tien Phuoc to the unit’s home base at Chu Lai, South Vietnam. On board were Warrant Officer George A. Howes, co-pilot; Spc. 5th Class Wayne C. Allen, crew chief; and Spc. 4th Class Francis G. Graziosi, door gunner.

The 22-year old Crosby’s tour of duty was scheduled to end a few weeks later, and the young serviceman looked forward to returning home to Donalsonville, Ga.

But on that day, Capt. Crosby and his three-man crew got lost in bad weather over Quang Nam Province. Their helicopter disappeared.

For 36 years, Crosby’s family awaited word on the fate of their son and brother. On Dec. 8, 2006, they learned the truth. Herby’s remains had been recovered, and all that was left to do was bury him with a full military funeral. The following Memorial Day, Capt. Herbert C. Crosby was laid to rest at Arlington National Cemetery.

Today, we remember Capt. Crosby and all who have served our country, defenders of our liberty and that of oppressed countries the world over.

On this Veterans Day, I watched The “Forgotten Heroes,” a film conceived in 1985 and produced by filmmaker Jack Marino, who wanted to tell the real story of those who fought in Vietnam.

“Forgotten Heroes” isn’t a documentary. Rather, it’s the story of brothers in arms who were drafted, fought, overcame incredible hardships and came home to the jeers of fellow Americans who hated this war.

As one Blue Star Mom described it, “‘Forgotten Heroes’ is the polar opposite of so many Hollywood movies of the Vietnam War. You know, the ones that show the soldiers and Marines as bloodthirsty murderers and depraved and crazed killers of women and babies.”

The “Forgotten Heroes” website explains:

In 1986 after watching the film “Platoon,” Jack Marino realized that since John Wayne’s “Green Berets,” Hollywood was increasingly reluctant to say anything positive or portray in a heroic sense anyone that fought in the Vietnam war. He felt he had to do something to counter all the negativism that seemed so pervasive within the city limits of Tinsel Town towards America’s war vets. He had been kicking around this idea of a World War II style film in a Vietnam setting for some time.
Marino explains, “I wanted to portray on film that generation who answered JFK’s call to defend freedom anywhere and anytime.”

He continues, “Every Sunday possible during my childhood, my dad and I would spend a few hours watching all the great black-and-white World War II movies together. Still, decades later, when I came home for a visit, we would fight the war together again in front of the TV. John Wayne, Errol Flynn, Van Johnson, Audie Murphy and so many more are a major part of my childhood memories.”

The Blue Star Mom adds, “My husband and I have pretty much stopped watching movies coming out of Hollywood. We’re just plain sick and tired of sitting down to let go of our daily stuff and be entertained to find we’re being lectured on the liberal’s agenda of hating America and/or our military. There are so many wonderful and inspiring stories about our military out there, just waiting to be told. But the media can’t even bring itself to report on our finest unless its report after report about torture (mostly bogus), civilian deaths (so many found to be untrue) and how ‘demoralized’ and ‘broken’ our troops are.

“So, to think Hollywood (the bastion of liberalism and ‘blame America first’) would even consider making a movie that showed the truth of all the great things and personal sacrifice our troops are willing to stand up and carry out?” she asks. “Well, I’m not holding my breath on that!”

We remember our veterans today, Nov. 11, with hearts filled with gratitude for all they’ve given to make our nation and the world a safer place. And we say a prayer for our fighting men and women and their loved ones. May God bless every one of them.

“Dear Jack,
You have helped enhance the lives of our Nation’s military and veterans and I appreciate your efforts to honor these heroes. Your support of these selfless warriors reflects the best of the American Spirit and I am grateful for your compassionate work …”

Mark Olsen, Author Of “Animal Colony” On Show Today

 

Mark Olsen joins me in the first hour to discuss his book “Animal Colony”. Conservatives like Mike Huckabee and Bobby Jindal are reading it! We will discuss why he remade a classic like ANIMAL FARM in the first place, whether or not the U.S. is actually on the brink of socialism, how the government, doctors, and drug companies are failing to fulfill their duties, how current federal exercise recommendations are ineffective, how sick care entitlements are driving us to bankruptcy and how the diet industry is scamming consumers.

Mark Olsen is a screenwriter, author of four solo novels and writer of four collaborative novels including the bestselling biblical thriller Hadassah, which was adapted into the Twentieth-Century Fox motion picture One Night with the King. His credits also include co-writing the MGM film Music Within, and the Bethany House novels Hadassah Covenant, Rescued, The Assignment, The Watchers, The Warriors, The Long Road Home and Ulterior Motives. Mark is the son of Baptist pastors and missionaries to France and a graduate of Baylor University in Professional Writing.  He co-authored this book with Dr. Thomas A. Rexroth.

“The View” A Waste For Glenn Beck

Why did Glenn Beck make an appearance on “The View”?  He certainly does not need the exposure from that brainless, waste of air program.  Elizabeth Hasselbeck is the only shining light on the show and I cannot figure out why she bothers to stay other than the pay must be good.  Glenn Beck appeared on the show and as one can see from the video, it was a complete waste of time.  Whoopi spent almost seven whole minutes accusing Glenn of being a liar and carrying on like some high school chick that just found out the most popular kid in school will not take her to prom.  Nobody cares Whoopi – get a clue.  Do they put their Hollywood libtard guests on the hot seat like this and accuse them of lying and demand apologies?  Of course not.  They just rip into the O’Reillys, the Coulters and the Becks with their superiority elitist Hollywood schtick as if that is where most of the country dwells when it comes to ideology.  If it was not that Glenn has principles, than I am sure he would have ripped off his microphone after this first segment and left the show.  Nobody deserves to be treated like this when invited on as a guest. 

You should be ashamed Barbara.  You have chosen co-hosts over the years that have denigrated the show and your judgement has been clouded by the same moonbattery that has left Hollywood insignificant in the eyes of real Americans.

Glenn’s response:

Gay Conservativism On The Freedom’s Wings Show Tonight

Miller. He has also previously worked as a development officer for Kentucky Opera and as a real estate broker in Louisville, Kentucky. In 2006 he joined the national staff of Log Cabin Republicans, first as Grassroots Outreach Director then as Director of Programs and Policy. He helped to build the organization across the country and lobbied to pass pro-gay legislation in state capitols and in Washington.
