Minutemen Standing at attention...

It appears that The Minuteman Blog has righted its wrongs, and has removed the nasty remarks made by some right winged moonbats...

Again with this 'Fair and Balanced" stuff...

I have a friend that went in 'undercover' so to speak and took a look at the thread on the Minuteman National Blog that contained the posts calling for open revolt against the government of the USA... The posts HAVE been removed and the thread was edited quite a bit...

It took them long enough to do so, the comments were WAY out of line with the advertised policies of the Minutemen and for a visitor to their blog to be the one that had to hold their feet to the fire was actually pretty ridiculous, but IF I was able to accomplish the removal of those seditious posts, then it was worth being banned from their site...

And to be honest with you, being banned from the Minuteman National Blog is no big deal, it's pretty much populated by loons that spout off every conspiracy theory imaginable, with NO facts or links to ANY of it and those far out conspiracies aren't even challenged, they're just taken as part of the 'big picture' ...

I will NOT address the management of the Minuteman Project in ANY way but I will say this, the Minuteman National Blog is a detriment to the Minuteman Organization in my opinion and it is obvious to most readers that it is ill-managed...

I realize that the Minutemen have an image they try to project and hope to maintain but the immediate image garnered by the casual reader of their blog leaves one feeling that it's best description is "Moonbat Central"...

I know that there are many fine folks that are giving a lot of time AND money to support this organization and I sincerely hope that if you folks read this, you will address it with your leaders, you don't need the negative image that is being projected by the Minuteman National Blog...

As one of my closest friends said, "The place reminded me of Free Republic without the ambiance."...That's bad...

Even retired jarheads can find a friend... somewhere.
