A soldier shot 4 times at Ft. Hood

 

This photo was taken the next morning when he awoke from surgery.  I wonder where Barack was that morning --- playing golf maybe………or bowing to some foreign king?

Scary chart

 

Anyone that believes this health care bill will save us money……….you are one of the gullible lemmings that believe Obama is “saving” jobs too.  Liberals prey upon people like you that can’t think for themselves.

The world "Apology Tour" continues‏

 

Where are George Patton and Harry Truman when we really need them?  When asked if the nuclear bombings on Japan were the right decision in World War II, Obama completely dodged the question.


Here's my answer:


1) Three thousand Americans, including innocent civilians, were killed in an unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor by Japan on December 7, 1941.


2) Many thousands more were killed as American forces moved across the Pacific, island by island.  The Japanese resistance was so entrenched, that many of them had to be attacked using flame-throwers.  Still, Japan would not surrender.


3) We believed that several hundred thousand Americans would be lost in an invasion of Japan.  Why should we risk those lives in a war we did not start?


4) Japan should have surrendered after the first nuke was dropped.  The fact that a second nuke was necessary makes it obvious to anyone that the first one was the right decision.

 

5) I admire President Truman’s courage in making this very difficult decision.  Although he knew there would be many casualties as a result of his decision, he also knew that continuing the war would result in untold numbers of additional casualties.  He ended the war and for that reason I believe it was the best decision he could make under the circumstances.


Any more questions?

How things were

 

Barack Obama promised change, but haven’t we already gotten that?

 

We used to have a strong dollar... Politicians changed that.
Marriage used to be sacred... Politicians changed that.
We used to be respected around the world... Politicians changed that.
We used to have a strong manufacturing economy... Politicians changed that.
We used to have lower tax structures... Politicians changed that.
We used to enjoy more freedoms... Politicians changed that.
We used to be a large exporter of American-made goods... Politicians changed that.
We used to teach patriotism in schools... Politicians changed that.
We used to educate children in schools... Politicians changed that.
We used to enforce LEGAL citizenship... Politicians changed that.
We used to have affordable food & gas prices, between inflationary hiccups and oil company shenanigans… Politicians changed that too, and one could go on and on with this list.


What hasn't been changed, politicians are promising to change that as well, if you will elect them.  When, oh when, is America going to sit back with open eyes and look at what we once were and where we have come and say "enough is enough"?  The trouble is, America's youthful voters today don't know of the great America that existed fifty years ago.  They see the world as if it has always existed as it is now.


When will we wake up?  Tomorrow may be too late.  When will America realize that politicians are what is wrong with America?  This goes for BOTH parties, Republicans and Democrats; there is no difference anymore.  They all do only what they can to be reelected, not what is best for the citizens!


What is needed is for the Constitution to be amended to limit all Senators to one term and Representatives to two terms in office.

 

Oh, by the way, no big pension either; social security just like the rest of us.  How do they rate bigger and better entitlements than the people THEY WORK FOR?  WHICH IS US!!

 

Being a politician shouldn't be a person's life work but rather a call to public service, then back to being an honest hard-working citizen as it was originally intended.

 

Politicians are no more than housekeepers and janitors.  Unfortunately they act like they own the building.
