I'm sure this can be reduced. Right now we have a situation where Hamas rocket attacks Israel, Israel has had enough of that so they invade Gaza, where invariably things get busted up like they would in any war zone, and then the United States pays to repair everything after Israel pulls out. That's perverse.

Even in our own military operations, we're paying twice. Once to blow stuff up and again to rebuild. We are suckers in the classic sense.

The $ is much better spent on Lavish Wednesday night get togethers at the whitehouse. Obama and the dems are quick to judge how companies spend $, but they seem to not hold themselves accountable. 180 enjoyed a nice meal last night on tax payer dollars and it seems that will be the norm going forward, not to mention the fact that he seems to be using Air force 1 as a boy who just got a new toy...

My point was that just because YOU think it's an abysmal start doesn't make it so. I tried to keep it cool and just talk about the way conservatives in general, and yes, you specifically, seem to operate. You aren't objective Tim..as I said...Nothing that Obama..or any Liberal can do..would suffice. Your negativity would rule. I really think that buried in your onslaught might be some valid points, but if you cry wolf every time or if you just search the internet for items that fit your neo-con agenda, it makes any legitimate arguments you try and make moot. That's all I was trying to say...and you've been on here long enough to know a "rant" when you see one..and I really don't think that qualified..

Well Bob....you can share the big successes with all of us if you can find them! I'd really like to feel good about something going on...but it just seems like a slippery slope.....especially since the Magic One had all the answers. Btw....I don't have any agenda(neo-con or otherwise). And Obama isn't who he said he was while campaigning. The neverending glee that followed Obamas election has been tempered with reality now. The "turn" this country takes is so important that I'll be the boy who cried wolf if I have to...no many threads started by Dems...they seem to be just thrilled with all that's going on. I'm not a political junkie, just alarmed by what I see could happen to the US and to the citizens.
