On "Military Endorsements", Or, Another Weird Christine O'Donnell Story

by: fake consultant

Mon Oct 25, 2010 at 10:30:10 AM EDT

I have a ton of things on the desk at the moment, and I don't have the time to really run out this story before Election Day, but I want to bring to your attention something very strange that I found on the 2008 "Christine O'Donnell for Senate" MySpace page.

What it basically comes down to is that the United States Marine Corps and the United States Army are "Christine O'Donnell for Senate" MySpace friends, or that there are persons who have created United States Army and USMC MySpace pages that purport to be official that have "befriended" her candidacy. There's also a Navy page that appears to emanate from a US Navy recruiting office in California on her '08 campaign's "friends" list.

At a minimum, all of this would seem to be a combination of inappropriate behavior and poor management of social media; at worst, you have activity that is "some kind of unlawful", either on an administrative or civil level.

I'll make this fast...but I'll also make it interesting.
Follow along, and you'll see what I mean.

A Basket Full of Medals

by: susanthe

Fri Feb 20, 2009 at 22:41:46 PM EST

A Dover, NH Navy man today was honored today - 50 years after he was discharged. He expected to receive one medal today, at the office of Congresswoman Carol Shea-Porter, but instead, she had 9 medals for him.

One of the things I admire most about my Congresswoman is her steadfast commitment to our men and women in the military. Carol may be the most natural, gracious politician I've ever seen. As you can see in the video - Carol knew whose day this was - and there was no grandstanding on her part.
