I'm gonna catch h*ll for this.....
As much as I don't wanna be a tree hugging ******....Our nation is extremely wasteful!!! The mentality alone is a big, maybe small in some situations, of the small business troubles that the typical extremist democrat complains of simply because they don't save the loose change to become bigger. My father IS a small business, one man show....of all things a taxidermist. No one things thats a good money maker but....I am a hill driven woodsmen at heart and in this area he manages to pull 6 figures all by his lonesome and has put my sis through college, helped mine tremendously and is already set up for a good retirement financially....and he's only 46!! (young fam. I know...and no, no one was knocked up

)
Politics on the forum....uggghhhh....
From another standpoint, since we did stick our hand in the cookie jar.... if you're going to do it, get it done and stop wasting the time and money. Harshly, I apologize but we should've stomped the $hit out of the MidEast in round one and gotten it over with. This "war on terror" has way to many avenues to only be "treated" with a war to prove something. Quick and Dirty.....QDOS....Bill Gates, if you understand what that means then you know how rich that man is and that quick and dirty did the job!!
I love my country and I do have many friends serving, and am able myself but my career took me to a different avenue. I support them fully. Cindy can F**king die!

Her own son believed but she refuses to even support his wishes that he died for. Are we a superpower?? Maybe but we aren't maintaining so well with our choices simply because we've assumed the role and sat fat dumb and happy tooooo long.
I don't take credit for being the best decision maker in the world but I do believe some of the simplest yet most critical decisions to date have been totally screwed up by the governing powers...IE, CIA, FBI, and further decisions have not gotten us moving in the right direction yet.
As I say these things, I am a flight instructor with few students. Few to the point that I do landscaping (friging weed eat and mowing) and other odd jobs just to make enough money to eak by and existence....Why?? Because our intelligence system was neglectful!! (please make sure of any facts before you have a dumb rebuttle to this or anything previously stated so that you might enlighten me or not make an @$$ out of yourself

) WHY WHY WHY
Prepare peoples and do your best to make the best. This is how things get better, not by griping about it on our butts (as I lay the griping streak down

) Comments anyone????
