WillingTo Say The Truth.
Protecting Liberty Through Freedom of Speech
January 26, 2012
If you listened to the Republican debate on Monday evening you must have come away shocked at what you heard regardless of what party you support.
With the exception of Ron Paul, the candidates agree that we will build a stronger military, especially a navy for which we have no real use in a world where air power dominates, if we elect a Republican President.
They agreed, with the exception of Ron Paul, that there will be no talking with the leaders of other nations with whom we disagree; the sole answer will be a preemptive strike to demonstrate the military might of the United States.
We will not seek a peaceful solution with Iran, no, rather, we will bomb Iran. We will bomb their airplanes, their military bases, we will attack them at sea, we will take out their nuclear sites, although we have no proof they are about to produce an atomic weapon. Sound familiar?
We have seen the consequences of a war begun at the whim of one president, a president who lied to the people of the world and to the people of the United States. He assured us that Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction that represented a serious threat to the United States. It was a downright lie. The lie was so terrible it made an American Hero, General Colin Powell, resign his post as Secretary of State in shame. It marred an outstanding career of service to the United States of America. Powell made that clear in a book he wrote.
Newt Gingrich, Mitt Romney, and Rick Santorum were quick to beat the drums of war. They rattled sabres at Fidel Castro, Venezuela, Iran, and anyone else who disagrees with us.
No wonder Gingrich has been divorced over and over again; aside from his alleged adultery it is clear he would rather go to war than talk. One thing is very clear. We are not going to get out of debt under a Republican president. Why? Because they want war with Iran and anyone else
who dares blink at us. We cannot afford another war but the Republican connected arms manufacturers will get rich just as Dick Cheney’s Haliburton got rich off the war in Iraq. There will be payoffs enough to go around.
They want to send space ships to the moon and to mars and to probe space. They say that will provide jobs in Florida because NASA will be so busy launching spaceships. Don’t worry we will just go deeper into debt to pay for that nonsense that cannot produce any rewards.
Oh they say science will benefit. SO WHAT! American is not graduating scientists – we import our scientists from other nations.
Last year NASA boasted that it spent Five hundred million dollars on a space vehicle to examine the small planet Mercury where the surface temperature is consistently incredibly hot or unbearably cold.
Have we gone crazy? We got nothing in return for that $500 million dollars! There is no place in space we can reach that will have any financial profit for us. We do not have the technology to cheaply send anything into deep space or to bring it back. Thinking about going any place in space beyond Mars, which takes years to reach, is a dumb idea and it will only drive us deeper into debt with nothing to show for it.
What difference does it make to you if the scientists learn more about how old the universe is. All they are trying to do is to prove there is no God and all the fair weather hypocrites are going to vote for these liars who want to pay the bill for it.
The candidates themselves made it clear we are not going to have peace. They want war; they want to demonstrate the might of the United States. They want to get rid of anyone who does not speak English; deport them, don’t write anything in any language except English.
