A Moment of Silence, America Has Died

Where has America gone? At one time there was a country known for freedom, defender of the weak, and champion of the oppressed. That country died a long time ago and we need a moment of silence as no one noticed when it happened.

We watch now as the people of Libya who challenged a dictator for freedom and this once great country stood by as we watched them die while waiting for the world to do something. The world did something, they let them die. Can anyone explain why we waited for the UN while civilians were being bombed or shot because they wanted freedom? Who gave the UN the right to decide who lives and who dies? Forgot, America gave up its right to help those who long for freedom to a bunch of hand wringers. Since the UN was founded has anything gotten better or has it gotten where no one is blamed for anything? Everyone can now take a pass and claim "The UN Must Take Action" as it is world problem. Why should countries like China or Russia be able to tell us who to help and who doesn't get help?

America at one time would not have allowed this to happen but America as we knew her passed away a long time ago. Maybe we should blame the current administration for this as maybe President Reagan would have said enough and told Libya to cease killing civilians or pay the price. Remember he bombed them once for far less and I don't think he would have hesitated to do so again.

Obama has always disappeared during these time so why should we expect anything different. I feel sorry for America as it is now a second rate country and heading toward a third. Can this be turned around, don't know as our elected leaders can't even get our financial house in order.

What this has shown the world and our allies is that Obama can not be counted on and may be a coward. He is afraid to act for the right reasons and reacts for the wrong reasons. Does anyone remember him opening his mouth about how the police reacted? He tends to open his mouth before knowing the facts.

I want to apologize to the people of Libya who wanted freedom for their country and let them know someday we will have a new president. At that time maybe we will have the courage to help. America, England, and France should be ashamed of themselves for letting this happen. At one time these countries would have gone it alone and to the hell with the rest of the gutless countries. Does anyone remember WWII where these powers fought a great evil without asking permission from anyone?

Obamacare - Liars, Accounting Tricks, Hidden Cost

Do any of you remember the former idiot speaker standing up and stating she didn't know what was in the healthcare bill but we would have to pass it to find out? What a moron the democrats followed but not real surprising is it. Has your healthcare bill been reduced since Obamacare passed? Mine hasn't as I just received my new monthly bill and it has increased over $77.00 per month and now I am looking for cheaper insurance as this liar of a president continues to fail as a leader. 


Did anyone catch the statement on the hill of the health secretary (I think) where she stated that the savings from cutting Medicare was going to be used for TWO different things? The same money saved is going two places. Wonder how the hell that is possible but we need to remember this is Washington and anything can happen. What liars and deceitful people Obama has brought into the government. It's bad enough the president is a professional liar so I guess we shouldn't be surprised by her lying until she was under oath. I really enjoyed her sweating while having to tell the truth. It must have really hurt her. 


Did anyone watch Obama and his lies about oil production and how much oil we have access to in our country?Hell, that's another story for another time. Remember the story about the little boy whose nose got bigger when he lied? Keep watching Obama's ears, as they are growing with each lie. 

WHO CARES ABOUT FOOTBALL

How many of us would be willing to earn $3.6 million for three years work knowing at the end our profession would no longer exist? Most anyone would take that and smile but not the players union. For years they have screwed over the older players and not helped those who got next to nothing to establish the game that the cry baby's of todays league have.

The face of todays union are players such as Manning, Brees, and  Brady and we are to feel sorry for them? Give me a break as these super rich players don't get it. THEY work for the owners and the owners should be able to set the wage scale and benefits offered. If they don't like the offer, they should be able to go elsewhere and the owners should NOT be able to dictate where they go. There is nothing special about them or their union and they should function like other unions.

Real simple, if you don't like your job, go elsewhere and the owners should not be allowed to stop them. If the players sign a contract for 2 years, 3years or whatever, they have to adhere to it. No new contracts can be written during the first contract and if the player slacks off because they want more money, to bad. They will have to wait for the next contract or they can quit playing until the contract they signed expires.

I use to be a fan of baseball as I pitched into college but damaged my elbow. Loved baseball for over 12 years and now, I don't watch. I ceased caring about it when they canceled the world series because of a strike. All the men who play these sports need to remember, baseball, football, and basketball are games and they get paid to PLAY GAMES. If they all went away and we the public started with new players in those sports, we would enjoy them just as much in time. Yes, we would miss some of the players but would find new players to root for.

The players better wake up and understand THEY NEED "WE THE PUBLIC". The public can live without them. All the folks that have business based on sports need to get ready for bad times as the owners and players don't give a damn about you. The greed of both sides will be the death kneel of football as the strike in baseball has caused it to no longer be "Americas Game" as it once was.

OWNERS & PLAYERS, YOU HAVE TIME TO SETTLE THIS BEFORE 

NO ONE CARES.
