“Star Wars” was how Reagan beat the USSR in the cold war. They could not, with their communist economy, keep up with the spending that the US was capable of.
Of course, the left sees this as “not fair”.

It was always about killing Star Wars. The public will keep lapping up the lies on TV aka ALL of TV. I dumped it a year ago and FR’ers here are saying our “friends” at Fox are fawning more and more over Obama including O’Reilly and Megan Kelly.
Americans traded freedom for a TV clicker.
List of Republicans (I believe these are all of them that voted YEA for this atrocity START TREATY) that should not bother campaigning as they will be out of a job in this horrible recession.

Kissinger - Globalist enemy of America
FU**ING RINO’S!!!!!
Not surprised by the RINOs that voted for this, but what’s up with Lamar Alexander & Coker? I thought they had some semblance of sanity. Wrong again!
Megan Kelly is not an Obozo fawner. BOR, on the other hand, helped to get him elected.
Any Generals out there who wants to take a few thousand of our troops to Washington to, “Drain the swamp” and restore the Constitution, I will back you!
The only way out now is to decertify the President's election as fraudulent. Posturing morons.
When global progressive communism government=AKA NWO
and they’re we are the world Soro’s ideals all fail; how can Obama and the progressive dems rule if we are all dead?
I know right... Graham and McCain actually stood tall. Lamar’s YEA vote is a shocker. Murkowski can go straight to hell on her broom.
Why, because people are upset that our once great nation is gone? No election is going to change the down-fall of the US.
Each and every US Senator that voted for this travesty is a traitor to the United States of America.
Top News Story on CBS: Michael Jackson's Doctor is going to court.
Second to Top Story on CBS: Lindsey Lohan is accused of assault for punching a worker at the Betty Ford Clinic.
Third Top Story on CBS: Study finds Police don't wear their seat belts at all times.
I kid you not. I think CBS must stand for Clueless Bull Sh*t.
I give thanks for forums like this that actually cover news items of importance.
We have a sh*t head for a president, in case you don’t know.
I will bet you CBS is reporting how great Obama is as he is reaching out an olive branch to republicans that want to investigate the poor man straight off a vacation. How dare they! Oh and the breaking MSM Obama news is that Jon Stewart has called Obama the comeback kid and they are all celebrating. Now I know why they are celebrating they succeeded in rendering America defenseless so they can have they’re global communism and get prizes from the U.N.
And they passed it with a majority who were fired already by the American people.
