What a woman can do
If you look closely you will see the US flag is flying at half mast. That took a lot of work. Here is the story. – Sibyl West 
Patriots, Thanks to our “embedded Texas patriot” in D.C., Anita Ross, the White House agreed to lower their flags to half-mast in honor of the Ft. Hood massacre. FYI…the White House/staff had no intention of lowering the flags…in fact, early Friday AM after the “closet Muslim terrorist” had finished his “atrocity against Army” warriors, the flags were raised to “full staff.” Incensed and incredulous at the POTUS and his staff/subordinates’ complete disregard and disrespect for the dead, dying, and wounded in Texas…flying the Flag at “full staff” in D.C. was unacceptable to Anita Ross…a Patriot from Texas A & M and the mother of a Marine currently serving in Afganistan. Anita burned up the phone lines in D.C. and in Texas…Congressmen/women…Governor Perry’s office…White House…all heard from her as she “assaulted the arrogance” of the clueless bureaucrats who mostly despise our military…demanding that honor be shown by lowering the flags. 
She was stonewalled, ignored, shunned…everywhere but in Texas. When it became obvious that the Liar-in-Chief and his team were completely ignorant, insensitive and insipid toward the “atrocity” (not “tragedy”) at Ft. Hood… When it became obvious that Anita Ross was not going to take “no” for an answer… When it became obvious that Duty, Honor, Country deserved recognition… When it became obvious that Americans true to the Red/White/Blue demanded “half mast” honor… The clowns in D.C. lowered the flags… Anita received a call from someone at the White House around 10:30 AM Friday morning…”Are you the Mrs. Ross who called about the flags?” She replied, “Yes.” “Well, the President has ordered the flags flown at half mast…we just wanted to let you know. WE NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT…THANK YOU FOR MAKING US AWARE OF IT!” So now you know…THEY NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT IT!!! Tell you anything about the allegiance of “our leaders?” Where’s my rope? Anita Ross is a true Patriot and she deserves a Hip, Hip, Hooray!!!! Please let her know that she is truly appreciated for her dogged determination to see that our brave men and women in uniform are respected, rewarded, and revered for their sacrifice and “standing in the trenches” for our freedom! anita.ross@legalnursecavalry.com (corrected) Alan Daves, Texas Mob Father |
