Your morning Matthis
Someone sent me this link yesterday, and if you are still undecided about how Matthis (IVAW Board member and Election Committee Chair) makes you feel, this video will definitely push you over the fence; The video is from last year when he was discharged from the military at an administrative board and given a general […]
Dissension in the IVAW ranks
It’s that time of year again – time to nominate IVAW’s board. Oh, and guess who’s in charge of the Election Committee? Yep – Matthis. I’m just guessing, but that’s probably the work of Adrienne Kinne, easily the furthest left and radical member of the leadership of IVAW. She wears her International Socialist Organization (ISO) […]

Carl Webb gets butt-hurt
I wrote the other day that Carl Webb was looking forward to attending the IVAW convention in Austin since it’s in his home town. But, according to his Facebook entry, he’s been uninvited; I see it but I don’t believe it. I’m sure I’ll find some pictures of Webb at the convention eventually. He can’t […]
Matthis: Vacation or jail?
So Matthis is trying to make up his mind whether he should fulfill his obligations or totally blow off jail in favor of a Caribbean vacation in regards to his arrest in Highland Falls during the President’s speech there. Guess which way he’s leaning; I called the District Attorney’s Office this morning, but they said […]
