Comments on: It’s not exactly PT-109… https://thenewneo.com/2012/04/27/its-not-exactly-pt-109/ A blog about political change, among other things Sat, 28 Apr 2012 01:15:24 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=7.0.2 By: Doom https://thenewneo.com/2012/04/27/its-not-exactly-pt-109/#comment-348792 Sat, 28 Apr 2012 01:15:24 +0000 http://neoneocon.com/?p=15909#comment-348792 If I have it right, the PT-109 was not a glorious thing, save in the eyes of ‘news rebundlers’, good only for useful idiots… and the ignorant. If Kennedy hadn’t had the connections and money he had, he would have been given a court martial, one he would have lost, for the thing. And a dishonorable discharge.

So, saving a dog is… well, much better. Unless you don’t like dogs… or it was supposed to be your dinner. heh

My in laws had a place on a lake in Arkansas where the spent most weekends. I saw just such a rescue performed there by our nephews and nieces. There were a few others that I heard about. You live on a lake, someone gets in trouble, you do your best to render assistance.

Romney happened to be in the right place at the right time – twice, according to the article. Hero? Nope. Good samaritan? Yes. He is a doer and has, as Sara Palin is wont to say, a serving heart. My kind of guy.

The music is “In The Arms Of An Angel” performed by Sarah Mclachlan.

Breitbart published “Indonesian Source: Obama Would Have to Hunt for Dog Meat in Jakarta” about eight days ago saying that after a search of Indonesian cookbooks, there was no mention of dog recipes and in Jakarta eating dog is unacceptable as well it should be in a Muslim community.

The German copyright screen won’t let it play. (It also blocked out The Fantastics songs. )
