Nothing of interest is happening

I wanted to post that nothing exciting or unusual is happening for me right now. I'm just kind of getting used to a new set of duties because my command is coming to an end. Now that I'm a Major, I will be moved out of command. I've got an inventory coming up for the change of command, and that is taking most of my time.

All of my workout partners have either returned to the U.S. after the completion of their tour, or are on leave. So, I'm back to working out by myself. I have picked up the intensity this week though, so that's good. 1150 calories burned today.

Life is just moving along here at Camp Stone.

Hurray for Carrie Prejan

Click here to watch the video about Carrie Prejan standing on the moral high ground with her answer to homosexual "marriage."

I LOVE this girl. Some say she went too far. I say she didn't go far enough! Rock on, Carrie!

It's amazing that Miss California is taking so much heat for this. She is just echoing what the voters in the State of California said when they voted yes on Proposition 8 last November, and what voters in 21 states supported (and promptly ignored by their elected representatives in Congress) in the 2004 Presidential elections. Why did Perez Hilton (an openly gay man) ask such a question? He was hoping for someone, anyone, on the national stage to support his "alternate" lifestyle. Of course, he didn't like it when it backfired on him on national television. That's when he began his campaign of slander, libel, and hatred. You'll see on the video how the liberal NBC media panders to the gay agenda when they call Ms. Prejan's response a "politically charged answer." Well, I think it was a politically charged question! Mr. Hilton was attempting to push his political agenda with such a question. Why does homosexuality ALWAYS have to be in our faces?
I think Ms. Prejan should be applauded, and I'm thrilled that she has abandoned her platform to support Special Olympics and is now working hard to protect marriage in our increasingly secular country. If only our elected officials had this much courage. Hurray for morals, and Ms. Prejan's courage to stand by hers!
