Martha Zoller"God has given us an abundance of natural resources, an abundance, and we are the only nation on earth that has the capability of using our own natural resources that's not. That can't continue to go on." Cong. Lynn Westmoreland, R-GA


Martha ZollerOn July 13 in Wanut, Afghanistan, 9 soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team were killed when attacked by enemy forces.


Martha Zoller"Barack Obama never held a single Senate hearing on Afghanistan. He hasn't been to Iraq in years. He voted against funding our troops. Positions that helped him win his nomination. Now Obama is changing to help himself become president. John McCain has always supported our troops and the surge that's working. McCain. Country First." - John McCain Ad on "Troop Funding, July 2008


Martha Zoller"I'm surprised at how finely calibrated every single word was measured. I wasn't saying anything I hadn't said before, that I didn't say a year ago or when I was a United States senator." Barack Obama, still a senator, commenting on his change in views on Iraq


Martha ZollerLast week, David Addington, top aide to Vice President Cheney, appeared before Congressman John Conyers' Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights and Civil Liberties.


Martha Zoller"If we become energy independent then they can jack the price of oil up or down all they want to. But we Americans will not be relying on their supply." -- Sen. John McCain, Town Hall Meeting, New York City, June 10, 2008

The National Salute of 21 guns (cannons firing blank charges 21 times) is fired only in honor of a national flag, the sovereign or chief of state of a foreign nation, a member of a reigning royal family and the President, ex-President and President-elect of the United States. It is also fired at noon of the day of the funeral of a President, ex-President, or President-elect, on Washington's Birthday, Presidents Day and the Fourth of July. On the other hand, anyone who is entitled to a military funeral (generally anyone who dies on active duty, honorably discharged veterans, and military retirees) are entitled to 3 Rifle Volleys, (rifles firing blanks into the air 3 times). This is not a 21-gun salute. They are properly referred to as Rifle Volleys. This from the Arlington National Cemetery Website: PRACTICE OF FIRING THREE RIFLE VOLLEYS OVER THE GRAVE: “The fact that the firing party consists of seven riflemen, firing three volleys does not constitute a 21-gun salute.” The 3 volleys comes from an old battlefield custom. The 2 warring sides would cease hostilities to clear their dead from the battlefield and the sound of 3 volleys firing would signal that the dead had been properly cared for and the side was ready to resume the battle.
Respectfully, Patrick Cabanilla - Sergeant First Class - U.S. Army (Retired)
