This is a very good perspective of the mess we are facing in rearranging the priorities in this country. Two months ago we were facing a crisis over whether the Republicans were trying to pick the lock 0n the SS lockbox or the Democrats wanting to spend more for social programs in dire need.

We, as a nation have always treated the military as the distant cousin that we want to see at family picnics only. The defenders of our freedoms and nation have taken a back seat to every whining special interest project that came down the pike.

We've allowed our disabled veterans to languish in veteran's hospitals with a smaller budget yearly while lamenting the fact that some able bodied welfare recipient has to go to work. This country has been cock-eyed crazy for some time. It's time to start acting like the adults we are instead of the spoiled infants we have been.
