Comments on: House Armed Services Committee Says No to Missile Defense Interceptors http://blog.heritage.org/2009/06/16/house-armed-services-committee-says-no-to-missile-defense-interceptors/ Fri, 10 Feb 2012 22:29:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Ellie, FL http://blog.heritage.org/2009/06/16/house-armed-services-committee-says-no-to-missile-defense-interceptors/#comment-37516 Ellie, FL Thu, 18 Jun 2009 15:18:15 +0000 http://www.foundry.org/?p=8678#comment-37516 America has forgotten its roots of Liberty. I doubt that many today would be willing to fight for their freedoms as our founding fathers did. Obama is merely following through on FDR's course. Anyone know that? His speeches almost verbatum parrot Roosevelt's 1944 fireside/inaugural speech. Its been a long time in coming but, as Americans, we've complacently allowed it to come to this. I do not trust any politician, be they Democrat or Republican to do what's right for the people. They're to concerned with their own welfare and what rewards and benefits they can garner. Why don't they try living on social security as the rest of us must. Its about time WE THE PEOPLE stand up and be heard. If that makes us rightwing extremists then we're traveling in good company. If our forefathers weren't rightwing extremists we might still be bowing to the throne of England! America has forgotten its roots of Liberty.

Did you see Obama bow to the Queen of England? In addition, didn't you hear how he slighted Sarkozy when he was in France? No, it's not Europe. I wonder if he gave the Saudi King an IPod or movies?

Obama knows exactly what he is doing. For the first time since the Cuban Missile Crisis I feel unsafe in my homeland. God help us ALL!

Obama is then just google Euro-centrism. It is part of the Core-Curriculim of Columbia College, where he was brain washed. It promotes the belief that Europe is superior to any other country.

It seems losing millions of people to a Nuke from a rogue regime would wake up this country to stop voting for stupidity. I believe its time to incorporate an IQ test before you are allowed to vote, and you will only be allowed to take the IQ test if you have at least 2 years of military service......... Seems like a sensable approach... How do you measure the loss of a major metropolitan city.

Destroy the American Dollar. Hugo Chavez makes public statements praising Obama's "change," to the left. the Russian Newspaper Pravda writes articles describing the loss of American Freedom, in the past tense, laughing at our complacent helpless weakness. All while, Americans are huddled in front of their TV's hoping for the best. Soon, it will be behind barbed wire.

We have not been successful in limiting membership in the nuclear club in the past, and logic tells us we won't be in the future. We must have an effective system and it will require continual improvement, which means it will require continual investment. I doubt if anything I've said here would be disputed by any of our political leadership, if you could get an honest and candid opinion from them. But you can't -- they're politicians whose first concern is their political career. How else can one explain Secretary Gates' reversal of opinion regarding an expanded missile defense system? It's a sad fact that you cannot accept anything a politician says, or cabinet member, or party official, or highly placed corporate executive, or union leader, as honest or even what they truly believe to be true. That's what worries me most -- our country is divided along political lines to such an irrational extent that even questions such as global warming and defense issues are affected most by political orientation, as opposed to science and rational thought.
