Liberals see the facts, obama doesnt

At this point, everyone except the triumvirate of power of Ried, Pelosi and Obama that is exploiting the country has figured it out.  It no longer matters what we would like to be able to do with government, or even what we would want to do with government, but what matters is what we can afford to do with government.  The era of big spending, higher taxes, and rack up debts for later generations has done exactly what has been predicted for the last 40 years.  We  Are Broke.  And soon to be bankrupt both fiscally and politically if we do not make drastic changes now.

Pataki, the three-term governor of New York between 1995 and 2006, said last fall’s elections sent a clear message to Washington. “People believe government is too big, it controls too much of our lives, it spends too much and the solution is to reduce government spending and to reform the entitlement programs and certainly not to raise taxes.

We need to make changes while we still can, we need to return to a government that operates within its means - no debt for future generations to pay off.  And we need to begin paying off the debt that this latest givaway has saddled us with that is ruining our economy.

self defense, only obama doesnt see it

India is now permitting armed guards on its shipping craft as a first step towards self defense.  This is a nation that has traditionally not permitted weapon ownership of any kind for private citizens, yet Obama is in the process of illegalizing new forms of firearms and making criminals out of law abiding citizens.  It is a sad day for this nation when we cannot recognize the basic human right of self defense when many other nations have realized their errors and are moving towards that goal.

In view of the piracy attempts on merchant vessels, the Directorate-General of Shipping will soon issue a notification allowing armed security guards on board Indian merchant vessels .
