We have all been wrapped up and rightfully so in the so called stimulus package. In the mean time Obama is rushing toward a Carter/Clinton type hide your head in the sand approach to the world and terrorist that want us all dead. He is proposing a 10% decrease in military spending and unlike the Porkulus package, there won't be Democrats racing to add to it, hopefully at least a few Republicans will. I want every Republican to say, I fought this all the way, of course that isn't going to happen. If they want to regain the Congress in or at least make it respectable, they have to stand up for the country, when the Administration cares more about the rights of terrorist than you and I. We are just a source of revenue to him, nothing more. George Bush spent every bit of political capital on keeping the country strong, we are not going to see that again for at least another 4 years. Obama has to remember his oath of office, he is charged with keeping the country safe from enemies both foreign and domestic. How are you going to do that big guy. Get ready with all your emergency gear, there is no doubt that we will be attacked again on Obama's watch, probably while he is meeting with Ahmadinejad or should I say kissing his rear.
Hannity last night had McCain and another Senator on. McCain had the most sane approach to the economic crisis I have heard, he simply says, we should only include items that create jobs and leave all the Pork for another day. Boy did we elect the wrong man to lead our country. The other Senator and I appoligize to him because I don't remember his name said that Obama had to deal with a run away congress and had no chance to reign them in. In other words we are screwed. Our only hope is that every Republican and a few Democrats don't go along with this. It won't stop it but when it fails it will have big time results in the mid terms. Debate is scheduled for 10:00 AM for S.1, will try to see as much as I can and keep score. I want to see a few Democrats get up and oppose the bill, something I didn't see in the House even though 11 of them did the right thing.
