"ST. LOUIS (KTVI-FOX2now.com) - Just seven months after the historic presidential election, the fight for Missouri is "on" again. This time it's the fight to be the next U.S. Senator from Missouri. Saturday, just seven months after the historic presidential election, the fight for Missouri is "on" again. This time it's the fight to be the next U.S. Senator from Missouri.
He was there to pick up the endorsement of former Senator Jim Talent. About three dozen gathered for the announcement at the Frontenac Hilton."
What a coincidence; that's probably the exact amount of votes Roy Blunt will get in his bid for the U.S. Senate with "Chicken Jim's" endorsement.
The man has no shame, he wants back into politics so bad that he's willing to show up anywhere at anytime to make an "endorsement".
Newsflash Chicken Jim.... you lost! Now pick up the phone and see if Tyson needs a carpet bagging overseer, because Missouri sure doesn't!!!
Missouri needs another Bush reject about as bad as it needs more illegal Mexican Chicken processing plant workers.
My vote is going to Carnahan.
There will be a monument dedication for General J.O. Shelby in Waverly, Missouri on June 27. (This Saturday) I really wanted to make it, but due to other circumstances, I will not be able to do so.
I am seeking pictures, articles etc. to post on this blog. This event is going to be huge with the Governors of Missouri and Kentucky in attendance.
For more details please read the following announcement:
There will be a monument dedication for General J.O. Shelby on Saturday June 27, 2009 at 3:00 pm, in Waverly, Missouri.
The Governors of Kentucky & Missouri plan to give speeches along with U.S. Congressman Ike Skelton.
Best of all the organizers have made arrangements for a B-52 bomber to do a “flyover” in tribute to General Shelby.
Click on the link below to see a picture of the statue and read the announcement in its entirety this sounds like it is going to be an amazing event to attend.http://www.coffeecamp.net/j_o_shelby.pdf

Coffee Camp calls on DNR to stop planned Union monument at Lexington
The Missouri Sons of Union Veterans May newsletter “The Unionist”; states that the group plans to place a monument at the Battle of Lexington { Missouri } State Historic Site attentively set for September 26, 2009 .
According to the newsletter {which can be read by clicking on the following link: http://www.suvcwmo.org/images/Missouri%20Unionist%20May%202009.pdf }
The Missouri SUV plans to fund this monument by selling reprints of the Henry Davis book entitled: “The Book of Chronicles of the City of Lexington and Fragments of the Book of Hadborim and Maazim”.
In this work, Davis, a 19th century Northern newspaper man and editor of the Lexington Union refers to Missourians as “Pukites”.
The Missouri Sons of Union Veterans May newsletter also states that the monument will be made of African stone.
The April 1910 Vol. 4 No.3 issue of the Missouri Historical Review states that Davis became proprietor of “The Lexington Union” and in 1866 changed its name to “The Caucasian” it is ironic given the fact that such a staunch Unionist would give a very supremacist name to his paper one short year after the war to “free the slaves” had ended.
The Missouri Sons of Union Veterans sale of the book to fund this monument is an insult to all Missourians. Given the fact that Missouri ’s Confederate veterans are no longer honored with the flag that they fought under, the monument should not be allowed.
In another strange turn of events, the Missouri Division Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War website that disappeared, shortly after my June 11,2009 post, magically reappeared one day after my June 22, 2009 post.
Coincidence? I don't think so.
