6 missiles just in this week! That's crazy! Why are we just sitting ducks here? Why aren't we doing anything? This is scary!
I guess we shall have to wait and see....zzzz must be time for a cup of green tea,,,, thanks guys we didnt get too mad did we..Lol
All of those things you listed were earmarks. Obama had asked senators to go through those earmarks and get rid of the ridiculous ones, but obviously that didn't happened. What you don't understand is that he didn't have a choice.... he had to pass that reform bill ASAP when he first took office. If the Bush administration had taken action when the economy was heading downhill (remember McCain said the economy was strong ? LOL!), then Obama wouldn't have needed to have acted so quickly.
Its a balance between an unregulated economy and one which restricts the freedom of private companies but with the fact that multiple businesses that were around on a large scale like auto dealerships are shutting down and putting the average American out of work I don't see much progress in either direction. As for government spending I would be for the complete elimination of pork barrel projects of any kind and if there are new expenditures in the government that will affect everyone perhaps people should be able to vote on them. I would agree about President Obama but I haven't seen any president do very well with reducing expenses although many gave promises. But that is another issue..
As for nuclear weapons I am sorry they were invented to begin with. I well understand that the need for war occurs from time to time but a nuclear war is not winnable. If the only countries that had nuclear weapons were the various major countries that had them in the beginning all the countries would probably agree to reduce their amount until they were eliminated but once they end up in the hands of a terrorist state then its very hard to know what to do at that point. I just hope Pakistan stays on our side. Vast areas of the country are not but the government technically is but if Al-Qaeda took over there then we would have a terrorist country armed with nuclear weapons and I would say that the North Koreans if faced with a war like all people would be afraid of death but the Taliban in warfare due to their fanaticism seem to seek it. The world is more out of control than its been in a long time. Its sad because as a young person I was an optimist and I thought the global end to communism would stop the potential of a world war but as with all young people I was naive. A shame though...
No, Margy, I have not heard anything at all. Hope that they will keep us informed and do something about this sooner than later.
Korea has now launched 6 missiles and another nuclear underground explosionI am going to try to find out online why no one is coming out to tell us what America is doing if only getting Japan and China on board ..I dont hear anything from our President is he not hearing.....have you guys heard anything new.?
