Neither of our two main options has to guts to stand up for what needs to be done to save our nation. How very sad that one of these would be our leader. They are no better than our local politicians, in fact, a few of our local leaders would at least be able to keep promises they made.
As per usual, we demand that government cut spending--so long as it doesn't impact us. And, as usual, it's always me first and we'll worry about the nation later. Where, oh where, are the real patriots?
Since we are unable to control our own borders to stop the drug cartels how are we going to stop the illegal actions in Honduras or Mexico? Like everything else, we can do something but we must hold off until after the November election--then we'll get more pie in the sky stuff from the smooth talkers.
It must be extremely tough to work for any of our intelligence agencies while knowing that you will be sacrificed merely for a headline under current administration practices. Remember the old days when our intelligence community was respected and we actually kept secrets in order to protect those who worked for us?
How about we drop this black/white b.s. and start thinking of our entire community and our nation? It is, however, nice to see some compliments to those who are working for us.
It's very sad to see the continuing loss of jobs. In travelling we see a continuing loss of jobs in a great many areas of the country yet the hucksters in Washington continue their attempts, through skewing of data, to make us believe that many jobs are being created. Simply put, they are lying to us. In reality, we are an ever expanding group of welfare recipients living on borrowed money and the lender is going to call those debts soon.
Mr. Pyle has forgotten that big government is just here to help. Unfortunately they are here primarily to help themselves expand their kingdoms, their power, etc., but of course, first of all they have to win reelection for this expansion to occur. This continuing expansion creates more jobs, in government of course. The private sector? It matters little to government except that it remains ever vulnerable to the growing oppression by the big fist of Washington.
The tracks of our governmental policies are leading us directly toward the European model with little concern for the well being of our citizens. Austerity is a word which is unknown to our leaders and our government holds a deep seated fear that the ants will soon rise up against their indifference and ineffectiveness. Some plans have already been laid for outside help, the U.N., to shelter the grasshoppers from the ants.
The magnitude of human trafficking remains unknown to our legislators. Do they really believe that any legislation they pass is going to deter these modern day slavemasters? In their mode of political correctness, they even fail to identify the primary sources of this trafficking

US House race foes attack coal plan of Obama
Ryan stands for nothing except the fawning pulicity given him locally. He's another reason I'm sometimes embarrassed to admit being a democrat.

U.S. should tread lightly
Since we are unable to control our own borders to stop the drug cartels how are we going to stop the illegal actions in Honduras or Mexico?
