The negativity of the media is destroying the nation with its words of discouragement. Trouble is, too many sheeple believe them. Argghhh.

Yep...and that battleship was armed with "assault weapons"!!

Only evil America weapons mongers and bloodthirsty politicians, flaunting UN anti-prolifiration treaties, would allow that.

On the side of the missile were the words: “Don’t Mess With Texas”...

On the news tonight, the meteorologist said the debris would be passing over San Antonio about 2:10am. Satellite Debris, please don't mess with Texas, either.

I remember Reagan’s first words when he won the presidency: “We’re going to put America back to work!”

The cheers were wonderful.

The others can’t say the same thing. What will they say? We’re goint to tax investments out of our country? We’re going to give you a reason NOT to work? We’re going to screw everybody who voted against us?

>>>My Dad was a yougnster in Newark when that broadcast was made.<<<

My Mom was a freelance fashion artist living in Greenwich Village NYC when Orson Wells did the "Martian" broadcast. She always said the panic was real....I have heard recordings of it, and, had I been around then, I would have freeked too!!

Orson Wells was a genius.

I like that thought! I'm sure he is - maybe even chuckling a bit.

I wonder if we will be able to say that after say a President Clinton or Hussein Obama have downsized our military to appease our enemies.

There is a long impressive list of Military equipment, from A to Z.

After it was listed, it is asked what country has such an impressive Military.

Turns out it was all of the items that Clinton had removed from our Military.

It could happen again with Hillarack O'Blinton

The “peace” lobby will have to re-double their long-running campaign against missile defense, to ensure that we are still vulnerable when Iran finally develops an ICBM.

Guess you missed the BBC tirade I saw on TV tonight about the U.S. trying to militarize space (no mention of the Chinese satellite hit, true to form).

Then PBS presented a NOVA segment on U.S. military/spy missions that supposedly had never been reported on. I wanted to watch it but my wife had other priorities. The campaign is already well underway -- we can't have the U.S. doing anything to make us proud!
