Don't mess with a Marine. Definitely not with my favorite Marine, Jim Martin. Jim is president of the 60 Plus Association, a dynamic and politically influential seniors organization based in our nation's capital.
Like AARP in many ways, but more conservative in political and economic outlook, 60 Plus stumps for seniors 24/7, across the board. It lobbies Congress for the absolute abolishment of the "Death Tax," the name Jim gave appropriately to the "estate tax," which unconscionably robs seniors of their life savings, homes, and businesses when they die – though they've paid their taxes and still managed to save something. 60 Plus lobbies for the support and stability of Social Security. It works tirelessly to see that all seniors have the medical care and hospitalization they need and deserve.
Personally close to many of the most powerful men in Congress and to President Bush himself, Jim is absolutely the best friend seniors have in Washington.

Pure and simple, Murtha is a pig. His day will come. Perhaps not in this lifetime.
At 70 Douglas MacArthur took command of U.S. and South Korean forces after the surprise North Korean invasion. Allied forces retreated into the Pusan perimeter as intact, operative units. In WW II General Percival retreated down the Malay peninsula into Sinapore with over 100,000 troops and was quickly overcome because all unit cohesion had been lost.
MacArthur then conceived the landing at Enchon, which devastated the North Koreans, until the Communist Chinese intervened.
McCain has enough character flaws to disqualify him as president. Age is certainly not an issue for me.
