Fallen Heroes: 4 From Ohio

From: The Unknown Soldiers

Capt. Rozanski

Capt. Nicholas Rozanski, 36, was one of three Ohio National Guard soldiers killed on Apr. 4 in Afghanistan's Faryab province.

Along with Master Sgt. Jeffrey Rieck, 45, of Columbus, and Master Sgt. Shawn Hannon, 44, of Grove City, Capt. Rozanski, who is from Dublin, made the ultimate sacrifice when terrorists attacked his unit with a suicide vehicle borne improvised explosive device.

 
As the state of Ohio mourns these devastating tragedies, including the death of Army Staff Sgt. Christopher Brown, 26, of Columbus, who was killed in action the previous day in Kunar province, the family of Capt. Rozanski has quickly and selflessly set up a memorial fund that will be used to fund scholarships for children in the Dublin community. 

 
"The scholarship will enable future generations of young, courageous men and women like Nick Rozanski to follow their dreams," the website says.

Please consider contributing to this memorial fund while keeping the Rozanski, Rieck, Hannon, Brown, and families of all our fallen heroes in your thoughts and prayers. Because after all, the brave men and women of our military are all part of one big family to which we also belong: the United States of America.

"Nick, a graduate of Dublin Coffman High School and The Ohio State University, was an amazing father, husband, son, brother & friend to all who knew him," the website says.

I just came across this great milblog by Tom Sileo:

The Unknown Soldiers

Guess Who

No, not that band, but perhaps a new one - formed by the kids of an old band:

 

 James McCartney     Dhani Harrison

 Zak Starkey         Sean Lennon

 Beatles sons form own band?

How Cool would THIS be?? 

And doesn't Dhani Harrison look like his dad??

Making a Difference

 William Ayers, unrepentant Domestic Terrorist

wakes up every morning thinking about how he's going to  make a difference ...

like ending capitalism or making a revolution, but acknowledged that he "goes to bed every night disappointed.

                             And aren't we glad for that. 

THEN

      

 

NOW 

  

Obully

Does Barack Hussein Obama, former senior lecturer on constitutional law (and NOT a professor as he likes to call himself **), NOT know how the US government works?


Does he not know about  ... 

Separation of powers?   Checks and Balances?

Has he forgotten that POTUS is but one part of the government?

I guess that Harvard Law degree ain't worth the big bucks it cost somebody.

Obama Warns 'Unelected' Supreme Court ... 

Barack Hussein Obama, employing his strongest language to date on the Supreme Court review of the federal health care overhaul, cautioned the court Monday against overturning the law ...

Combative Obama warns Supreme Court

Barack Hussein Obama on Monday challenged the "unelected" Supreme Court not to take the "extraordinary" and "unprecedented" step of overturning his landmark health reform law.

Obama Takes a shot at the Supreme Court

Barack Hussein Obama took an opening shot at conservative justices on the Supreme Court on Monday, warning that a rejection of his sweeping healthcare law would be an act of "judicial activism" ...

  
Obama Expects SCOTUS to Show Deference

Barack Hussein Obama, for the second straight day, put public pressure on the Supreme Court to uphold the federal health care overhaul -- saying the court has traditionally shown "deference" to Congress.

Hey, Obummer, read this:

Guide to the Branches of Government (for Kids)

The framers wrote the Constitution to provide for a separation of powers, or three separate branches of government. Each has its own responsibilities and at the same time they work together to make the country run smoothly and to assure that the rights of citizens are not ignored or disallowed.

This is done through checks and balances. A branch may use its powers to check the powers of the other two in order to maintain a balance of power among the three branches of government.

And when Obummer calls the Supreme Court justices 'unelected', well, consider this: candidates for SCOTUS are nominated by the president, but are confirmed by majority vote of the Senate, so in a sense they are 'elected'.

**  "Sen. Obama, who has taught courses in constitutional law at the University of Chicago, has regularly referred to himself as "a constitutional law professor," most famously at a March 30, 2007, fundraiser when he said, "I was a constitutional law professor, which means unlike the current president I actually respect the Constitution." 

 

A spokesman for the Republican National Committee immediately took exception to Obama’s remarks, pointing out that Obama’s title at the University of Chicago was "senior lecturer" and not "professor."
