I think Hunter and the majority of those in Congress are just uninformed and could care less about anything other than their own well being. The American public is even less informed and they like Congress have these knee jerk reactions every time someone panics. America is in for a rude awakening. If al queida is successful in pulling off this big event they speak of America will go nuts,watch and see.WE no longer have leaders we have people standing around watching polls anytime they are not watching out for self. America truly is in dire straights.
I know I cant think of a time we need cool calm leaders is now. I am convinced that this Country needs a cooling down. Realize that not every muslim in the world is the enemy. Its time to be thinking. We are making progress in Iraq, we are making progress in Afgahistan. With our moderate arab allies there has been increased security and intelligence sharing. We have the only curremtly Islamic country that has Nuclear weapons in our sphere of influence. North Africa is starting to look hopeful. There are signs of progress all over the place. Before you know it like you said if they pull off a big one the Congress as of today would go nuts. Something rash would happen. Trade alliances broken. Dire straits indeed.
"WE no longer have leaders we have people standing around watching polls anytime they are not watching out for self. America truly is in dire straights."
We certainly have no leaders in Congress other than Tom DeLay. And I couldn't agree more. America is in for another "9/11." I just hope its no worse than the earlier one. I'm beginning to believe it will take at least one more blow to finally wake up our so-called congressional leadership and the MSM nitwits.
And if and when we get hit with another 9/11 event, we will all need each other. What name will you call other Americans who happened to disagree with you on one issue then? The sheikhs are not crying over this.
I call them Republicannibals.
Sweet Jeepers! you are right on! America IS in dire straights and yet you have all these Freepers crying about negativity - wake up folks it's called 'reality'. Before we had to worry about the uninformed, undereducated electorate trying to figure out what or who to vote for, now we realize that so many of these same folks have been elected into positions of power and they have'nt got a clue. Combine this with the continuing, declining education system and the P/C crap and it can only get worse. You get the Constitutionists hollering about rights ect. The founders produced this fantastic document assuming that the recipients would use it intelligently, as a guide and they included in it the ability to ammend for they realized that as the centuries rolled by we might need to adjust it a tad, to keep up with the times. What we do need are leaders and statesmen, not politicians. Leaders who place their nation first and not their frigging party. Leaders who are not afraid to offend, leaders who who will tell the people to get off their ass and go to work, leaders who will remind the people that they can achieve anything they want in this country if they will get off their ass, quit whining and grow up!
