It is always those individuals which have never served that seem to go out of there way to compliment those of us that have.<BR/>I'm unaware of any military person that goes above and beyond the call of duty to call people out on their military service, it is just those that haven't served at all.<BR/><BR/>Do they feel guilty that they couldn't bear signing on the dotted line to commit to their country the HONOR of serving??<BR/><BR/>I don't need anyone coming up to me and thanking me for my service to country, however perhaps you should come up and tell me WHY you didn't serve your country.<BR/><BR/>patriotism goes just so far and if you didn't join because you felt it wasn't worthy of you perhaps you should rethink your position on this planet and this country.tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156943875749350309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5567970460917774803.post-10583004294283490012008-05-11T20:21:00.000+00:002008-05-11T20:21:00.000+00:00I am the Jim that called in to challenge Mr. Vince...I am the Jim that called in to challenge Mr. Vincent Schattenkirk, aka Vincent David Jericho(wonder why he hides behind a pseudonym), and his dangerous rhetoric.<BR/><BR/>The two people that visited the radio station were looking to talk to Vince but were refused. They were not there for him to lose his job but rather to correct dangerous rhetoric being promoted to the public without verification and without rebuttal.<BR/><BR/>It took me 3 calls to get accepted into the call and when I was finally let in it was quite apparent that Mr. Vincent Schattenkirk was not happy about my call. He did not want to be challenged which are the same fascist tactics as others like Limbaugh, Hannity, and O'Reilly.<BR/><BR/>I found it quite revealing when Mr. Schattenkirk abruptly ended my call(hung up on me) that the next caller was a military man and Schattenkirk profusely apologized to this man for my call.<BR/><BR/>Unbeknownst to Schattenkirk, I spent 10 years in the U.S. Army Reserves. How many years did Schattenkirk spend in the Canadian Military(his home country) or for that matter our own U.S. military? <BR/><BR/>As an American I will be forever fearful of someone who has the public ear but allows no challenge to their rhetoric. Those situations are the tools of a tyrannical dictatorship and have no place in this great Republic. They are the methods of Socialists, Fascists, and Communists that want Total Control of thought.<BR/><BR/>My name is Jim Palmisano. I started the Springfield Ron Paul Meetup group. I was also the North Territory Director for a nationwide grassroots effort called Ron Paul Friends USA covering 7 States. I'm also the Missouri Coordinator for two nationwide groups. Namely "We the People Foundation for Constitutional Education" http://www.givemeliberty.org and the other being "Restore the Republic" http://www.freedomtofascism.com and http://www.restoretherepublic.com which were successively founded after Aaron Russo's famous documentary titled "America: Freedom to Fascism". If you haven't watched it you can do it for free on the prementioned websites.<BR/><BR/>I don't get paid for these positions. They are 100% volunteer unlike Mr. Schattenkirk(aka Vincent David Jericho) who gets paid for his false and undocumented propoganda under the guise of "Show Business". This isn't "Show Business" folks. This is a blatant misuse of the Public airwaves. These are OUR our airwaves. Not the Governments and definitely not KSGFs or aka Vincent David Jericho's as he would lead you to believe.<BR/><BR/>*Sidenote - While Mr. Schattenkirk blocked me out during the middle of my call to him, I had the chance to tell him about my ancestors who fought in our War of Independence. One Jesse Rector stood on the battlefield when Cornwallis surrendered to Washingon and another fought under Sir Francis Marion, "the Swamp Fox".<BR/><BR/>I swore to support and defend our Constitution and I'm the Socialist? What lies will the People believe?<BR/><BR/>Believe what you will. I have stated my case and I do not hide under pseudonyms or false information. <BR/><BR/>Jim Palmisano<BR/>jpalmisano@mchsi.com<BR/>417-496-1973Jim Palmisanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444827770392164721noreply@blogger.com
