Obama Insane

Obama will continue his insane spending policy until our so called representatives stop acting as his political enablers. Are we all asleep or just as crazy or just don't care?

Barak Obama: Treading the Road to Oblivion

Change is in the air! Yeah, sure! Riiiight! Think of the grossly obese diner in a fine, expensive restaurant, about to order a 6,000-calorie, fat-laden, chlorestoral-laden scrumptious meal. At the next table is his physician who sends the man a note: "You need to change your diet, now!" The man reads his doctor's note, grimly nods in agreement to himself and to the doctor he shows the "OK" sign.

Go Israel - Watch and Learn, U. S. Administration

In a news story, we learn of massive air strikes by Israel against Hamas targets in Gaza. There has been no peace over that region since Israel ceded it to Hamas. Militant Palistineans weren't satisfied and they continued targeting Israeli targets, killing and wounding civilians. Then Hamas had the gall to complain about Israeli attrocities.
