Applying the Geneva Convention to a group of thugs would be considered as absurd as giving those same rights to the gangs that plague our streets. Applying the privileges citizens of this country honor to non-citizens, terrorists, and all otherwise ‘illegal’ persons, is not only ludicrous, but should also be considered treasonous! How can we protect the sanctity of this great nation if we dole out Its freedoms like Planned Parenthood doles out condoms!
Yet this is happening daily here and during a time of war! As Americans we have gotten desensitized to the commercialization of everything. In fact, our society is so backwards that we pay our Military, Police, Firefighters, and Paramedics less than a Fitness Instructor!*
*Based on a ‘base salary’ basis on Los Angeles California pay scale.
We are talking about people who choose to join a profession to save and protect us. This is because we, as a whole, tend not to think about what services these men and women provide for us until it slaps us in the face.
We worship beauty and celebrity, be it TV and Movie actors, sports figures, musicians etc. These are the people getting the big bucks, these are the people society as a whole looks up to, follows, emulates, and here in lies the problem. This is where so many (too many) absurd opinions get voiced and heard because they are celebrities! The people follow due to being blinded by the light, this is just plain sick and wrong! These people don’t know what they are saying anymore than Joe Shmoe next to you on the bus picking his nose! Would you blindly follow him?
“America is in trouble. Grave trouble. We are in debt up to our eyeballs to China. We have a weak, unintelligent, incompetent President, a lying, thieving, diabolical Vice-president, an ineffective intelligence operation and a Congress made up of Republican lapdogs who want to build useless railroads down South, while Katrina victims still suffer and struggle. Recruitment is down and here at home the will to fight is waning. (How can you expect people in this country to support a war when you picked the wrong guy and botched the whole thing so carelessly?)” –Alex Badlwin ‘06
Does this sound reasonable to you? If you are reading this, hopefully this makes you as nauseous as it makes me. Here we have not only an example of free speech but also free media. Do the adjectives used here sound like a personal attack, or an attack on policy? Hmmm, let’s think a minute…NOT!
This is the foundation of every democrat’s argument, they sling mud and hope through sensational name calling the people won’t see that their ‘agenda’ is nothing but hot air. When viewing the Democrat Party website and reading for myself (yes on an empty stomach I may be crazy but I am not stupid), their vision for the future one thing kept ringing in my mind: Plagiarism. It sounds like they borrowed their talking points from Ayn Rand’s Book; “Atlas Shrugged”. Which was written in the mid to late 50’s and viewed as somewhat of a science-fiction novel. Now reading it, it becomes a horror story that could easily come true.
If you have not read it here is the short version: it is about wealthy and politically ambitious persons who are “for the people, the working class”, and the ‘for the good of society’ minded way they not only destroyed America but the outward ripple effect. But they had good intentions!
Isn’t openly sympathizing with the enemy, as in our Elite Media, giving aide and comfort? All the big mouth liberals bewailing about ‘those poor innocent people”, can’t someone just bitch slap these idiots onto reality please! Given the opportunity, one of the ‘poor, innocent’ miscreants would saw your head off with a serrated steak knife no matter if you sympathize with them or not! Just like during the Vietnam war there was a slogan that went something like; “Kill ‘em all, let God sort ‘em out”, I have updated this to fit the current state of affairs; “Kill ‘em all, let Allah sort ‘em out!” After all fair is fair.
Current events have Israel doing what the US should have done a long time ago, eradicating the enemy no matter where they hide. We were the unwitting victims of an unprecedented act of war on United States soil at 8am Eastern Time on 9/11/00. By that same night we should have been begging Israel to show us how to fight these terrorists and win. We should have (and still should be) sending our military personal to Israel (if they would have us), so our Military men and women could be trained by their Military and Intelligence forces. I am by no means condemning our Armed Forces; I have the utmost respect and admiration for all persons serving our country in this war. In fact, it is my firm belief that if our Troops we allowed to do what they were trained to do, without these silly politicians interfering; things would be much quieter over there. Then just imagine what they could do with training from the IFD to add to there expertise!
America really needs to focus her energies and money on herself and stop wasting it internationally where it is so unappreciated. Why do we incessantly send money, aid, medications, food, etc. to various places throughout the world where 1) it does no good, the people never seem better off for it, that is IF it even reaches them! and 2) the same people we are assisting yammer tirelessly about how much they hate America and all Americans. Did they never here the old proverb, “don’t bite the hand that feeds”? Cut them off, cut them all off is what I say.
Envision the money we could save and then maybe we could feed our own starving, homeless and sick people!
So far on Prison Reform and International aid alone we could also afford to give are Police, Fire, Paramedic and Military personnel a much deserved pay raise.
While I am speaking of pay raises on group of particularly useless people come to mind, yet they always manage to give themselves pay raises for a job POORLY done…our Congress. Out of all the government workers I can think of at the moment, they are at the bottom of the list when I think salary increase! They have done more damage than good to this Nation, with all their special interest groups and a investigative Board for this and a Panel for that, and all the ‘pork’ spending…let's not forget those grueling two day work weeks!!
Here is an IDEAL opportunity to save some big bucks! Should they be getting raises based on performance like the rest of the working world? Should they have to come to us, the people who elect them and pay the taxes that pay their salaries to get approval for these pay increases? Wouldn’t this just make sense?
Why do they get a special retirement plan different than the laypersons Social Security? If they were placed on the same system as you and me, don’t you think the questions facing the future of Social Security would get much faster responses?
Some time take a look at the real estate section around Washington D.C. and see how your elected official lives, and then tell me they actually deserve to live like this for the crap job they have been doing. We all would have been better off buying stock in KY Jelly for how much they screw us.
