My ranting....

Just so much in my mind and so much escaping, I have to rant today....

• If the Israel Defense Force (IDF) told you not to do something - would you do it? If they told you again and again not to do it and they said they would kill you if you did - would you do it? If you were stupid enough to say "yes" - Have you not read the bible? And do you not know that the IDF is one of the highest trained, best equipped and most violent militaries in the world? Do you not know that the Mossad Intelligence is one of the best in the world -(and why would you also tell them you were coming?). The IDF and Mossad are protecting their homeland: Weather you like or hate the State of Israel - don't be stupid. Anyone on that flotilla of boats that resisted and then beat an IDF trooper armed with a paintball gun was not thinking too clearly... Justice for stupidity can be swift.
• Congress under the tutelage of Pelosi, Reid and Obama just passed an additional several hundred billion (that is right - hundred billions) dollars spending package without cutting any spending. So -more debt added to my kids! Unbelievable....
• Is Obama weak and making America weaker? You decide: One of America's strongest allies - French President Sarkozy said ""He's a charmer, a conciliator, but I am not sure that he's a strong leader in a crisis..." Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Obama was "an ineffective leader influenced by Israel to target Iran more aggressively." In today's USA Today - they said that China will use the current North Korea/South Korea tensions as a way to "reinforce" America's weakness to it allies and partners. Does the top guy ever bow to others? And the list goes on.... Maybe one day Obama will learn that we don't live in Candy Land....
• I've had several people ask - I haven't had a seizure in a week (?). My short term memory is still in shambles - but I think it is improving. My ability to calculate also seems to be coming back. Although at times I'm clueless - there are other times where I can do basic mathematical calculations. Name recall still seems to be a deficit. Slow progress...
• And the purpose of the U.S. government isn't being fulfilled in the Southern part of the U.S.. The purpose isn't to run my health care. The purpose isn't to buy cars that get poor gas mileage. The purpose isn't to buy private companies. The purpose isn't to run a TV or radio station (PBS - NPR). The purpose isn't to caulk my house. The purpose isn't to regulate video games. The purpose isn't to cut my salt intake. The purpose isn't to tax. (and Obama's list goes on and on and on) Go back to the basics: Protect U.S. citizens, the environment and capitalism....
• Maybe if Obama goes back to the coast, holds his staff up high and screams for the water and oil to part - it will? If it works, it will make clean up a lot easier.
• Glad the left anointed this guy as our leader....It makes a great text book example of what weak leadership with strong public relations can do. Gibbs has one of the toughest jobs in government....
