Those giant pickup trucks you complain about exist because Obama made it illegal for them to be small through emissions regulations based on vehicle weight.

They found him slumped over a machine gun he wasn’t even allowed to touch — and 98 dead enemy soldiers lying in a circle around him

His name was Captain Benjamin Lewis Salomon — a quiet dentist from Milwaukee who spent his life helping people, not hurting them. In World War II, he served as a field surgeon on Saipan, yards behind the front lines… until the morning everything fell apart.

On July 7, 1944, a massive Japanese banzai charge broke through the American perimeter — thousands of soldiers rushing straight for Salomon’s medical tent, where dozens of wounded men lay helpless on stretchers.

Salomon was performing surgery when the first enemy soldier burst inside. He killed him bare-handed. Then another. And another. But the human wave was too big, too fast, too close.

Every wounded man in that tent was about to die.

So Salomon made a decision no one expected from a healer:

“Evacuate them. I’ll hold them off.”

He dragged a machine gun outside, set up 50 yards in front of the hospital, and became the only wall between hundreds of charging soldiers and the men who couldn’t even stand.

He fired until his barrel glowed.
Until his uniform was cut to ribbons.
Until he was shot, stabbed, slashed — 76 wounds in total.

And still he kept fighting.

Behind him, medics carried the wounded to safety.
Every extra second he bought meant another life saved.

Hours later, when the position was retaken, they found him slumped over the weapon — hands locked around the grips, surrounded by 98 enemy dead.

Every wounded soldier under his care survived.
Every single one.

But instead of honoring him, the Army rejected his Medal of Honor.

Why?

Because as a doctor, he wasn’t “allowed” to fight.
The Geneva Convention protected medical personnel — and military brass feared rewarding him would “encourage” other medics to break the rules.

It didn’t matter that he saved dozens of lives.
It didn’t matter that he sacrificed his own.
The rulebook said “no,” and the rulebook won.

For 58 years.

Finally, in 2002 — after a relentless campaign by fellow dentists, veterans, and survivors — President George W. Bush awarded Captain Salomon the Medal of Honor.

He wasn’t there to receive it.
He’d been gone since that morning in 1944.

But the truth finally caught up:

He didn’t break the rules.
He honored the only rule that ever mattered:
Protect those who cannot protect themselves.

Captain Benjamin Lewis Salomon died doing what he had always done — healing, defending, standing between danger and the vulnerable.

Not because he wanted glory.

But because he refused to look away.

That’s not just courage.
That’s humanity at its highest setting.

The Right actually does own all of these things and it's not even up for debate. It's a grotesque inversion of reality to pretend otherwise.
