Your; The bottom line for me is the need to send people to a war zone thousands of miles away to get all of their actual “flying time”.

Appalling situation! We will soon be slipping back to the pre-WWII level of readiness where soldiers trained with broomstick handles.

Good point.

Elected officials are infamous for cutting necessities while maintaining frivolities. Some of the Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon have also likely been infected.

I also would like an explanation. And it is the responsibility of the Head of the Executive Branch to provide it.

Were the occupant of the White House a real President, he would have not only worked up a responsible plan with all his Department Secretaries, Agency Heads, etc. but he would have presented it to the public before sequestration went into effect.

Of course, the occupant of the White House is Obama. And even though this is his plan, We The People will not receive any explanation or responsible behavior from him.

After all, his objective is to destroy America. And this program of his is doing its part.

...the Sequestor isn’t impacting “Holder’s People’s” handouts at all..........

Bingo! Unconstitutional spending somehow always remains funded.

There is no way the country can survive 3 more years of it. Either this country is destroyed for good, or something’s got to pop.

Once re-elected, with a Democrat controlled Senate, and a neutered Supreme Court, Obama and his cabal were answerable to no one. And they are pushing it for all they can.

It’s interesting, watching how the bipartisan political/regulator class works.

It is indeed!

You ain’t seen nuthin yet!

Did you happen to read Larry Pressler’s idea on saving Ellsworth in today’s Journal editorial page?

Gay Marriage. From the standpoint of liberal logic and I’ll leave it to you to determine if liberal logic is an oxymoron, he does make some sense. Now we have the ultimate conundrum, save Ellsworth and bite the liberal agenda or kill Ellsworth and be the one who just couldn’t vote for the inevitable.

Of course there have to be more than those two choices but I don’t think Larry sees it that way.

I thought so, knowing you as I do.

Interesting though, seeing as I have not seen you in what...

Many moons!

You’re exactly right. We’re in very bad trouble and I think we’re going to see things that will shake us to the core.

Looks as if Pressler has drank the inside-the-beltway Kool-Aid of liberalism.

RIP, Larry's brain!

Aha! well this is just dandy. I guess Obama and his commie friends will soon get busy with their own private militia and take over the country. The Civil War will soon be upon us. I mean all the ammo they have assembled and their own tanks and camps, heck it won't be long, remember he has only three more years to complete his plans to take over our beautiful country!

Make no mistake, they want the country to come apart at the seams. Chaos will be their justification to do anything.

I read Pressler’s “brilliant idea” in the Journal this morning. I couldn’t choose between tears or laughter. So, I just sighed and chocked back my nausea.

Do you know if Dyess is suffering the same fate?

Mr. RR claims that if western SoDak had more Democrat voters, this probably wouldn’t have happened.

Obviously this is intentional to weaken us. If I was China and NK I’d say screw it, take the economic hit, and get rid of us once and for all. Sadly we’re ripe for the picking.

Advertising these shut-downs is even more worrisome than the shut downs. “Loose lips sink ships” and they seem to be proud of their loose lips.
