There can be no more excuses, the American economy is deteriorating, and has been over the last four years. Today’s first time weekly jobless claims number comes on the heels of the news of our economy contracting. I would hope we will now pay attention and stop falling for empty rhetoric and distractions.
And how ironic that today former Sen. Chuck Hagel is having his confirmation hearing after our ally Israel has received a new threat from Syria and Iran. Why? Because they stopped a shipment of arms headed to Hezbollah. Oh yeah, that is the same Hezbollah Hagel did not want to declare as a terrorist organization.
For 4 years we have been screaming “Wake up America” and finally we might get some leadership? These are marxist thugs in our White House. Collapsing and looting our economy. Is it too late?
I truly hope you run for the presidency. . .you have my support sir and as a vet I salute you.
Hagel is a War Hero unlike West who was drummed out of the military. Hagel believes in talking before sending our brave young men and women into combat. Why? Because unlike all the neocon CHICKENHAWKS like Bush, Cheney, Wolfowitz, Ted Nugent and others, Hagel knows first-hand the horrors of war.
Oh, moderated forum so I guess my honest post won’t make it past the nazis.
it’s called a personal website, I will manage mine the way I choose you can manage yours. I have a regular job and can’t moderate comments all day long but I will moderate for obscene and vile comments. That is my choice.
Also, LTC Allen West is 22 years service in the US Army and Combat Ops. He is well versed on this subject as well.
