This post references "Carol’s Crystal Ball," and "Obama to Great Britain: Bend over," about Britian's Falkand Islands problem.
I imagine our next president on his "apology tours". But unlike Obama he won't be grovelling before Mid Eastern terrorists. Our next president will be apologizing for actual wrongs against Poland, the Czech Republic and yes, Great Britain.
Go ahead. Get ready to tell me what a Big Meanie I am. For the truth, always hurts.
First of all, is it just us "loonies" who are genuinely concerned about the miserable state of the economy and our unsustainable national debt? Or will "Animal Spirits" continue to fund our never-ending foreign and domestic spending addiction?
Any who ... I haven't looked into the Falkland problem, nor do I even care. We don't have a treaty that makes it our responsibility. Do the Falkland Islands want to be free of Britain's socialist chains? I don't know. But the above statement reminds of everything that's wrong with the United States and our relation to the rest of the world.
Apology Tours
If the next president goes on an apology tour, it should start with Michigan, Illinois, California, Vermont, Texas, Arizona, Washington, and the rest of the 50 states!
America First.
The DC cabal has done more damage to this country than any enemy could ever dream of accomplishing. The Soviet Empire didn't bury your grandchildren in debt, nor did Osama bin Laden take your freedom and liberty away!
Sorry, but you know it's true. You know it because it makes you angry at me as you read this.
Obligatory Disclaimer: Yes, bin Laden is our enemy. But why is he still alive? And please don't insult me or the military by telling me he's too hard to catch.
It's time that "Poland, the Czech Republic and yes, Great Britain" learn how to stand on their own two feet. If conservatives expect their American brothers sisters to pull themselves up by their bootstraps, then they must expect the failed socialist State's around the globe to do so as well.
If these failed socialist States can't afford their own national defense, then let them lick the boots of their masters. Socialism was their choice, and it comes with severe consequences. So instead of spilling American blood and wasting America treasure, maybe they should give freedom and liberty a try for a change. If not, let them fail. Miserably.
The United States is NOT the welfare provider for the world. They chose socialism, therefore they chose to die with it too.
Bob made a good point about Obama not being loyal to the American Creed. He's right! But we've got a lot more in common with Obama than we do with the tyrannical regime in Britain. Their laws are so abusive, they have cops who search your garbage!
There is no such thing as a socialist regimes inalienable right to American money and American blood. Quite frankly, it is immoral to spend American money and sacrifice American lives to prop up these socialist regimes.
And as a Christian, I find the notion that you have the inalienable right to confiscate other people's money, to spend on sending other people to die on behalf of failed socialist regimes, to be blasphemy!
If you wish to "protect" these failed socialist nations who can't handle their affairs on their own, then pack your bag, buy a gun, and get yer ass over there!
Our Friends
Yeah, right. You'd hate them 10 times more than you do Obama, if you had to live under their tyrannical regimes.
Now how's that for a rant?
Nice post CL.
I agree with you. We need to stop propping up these socialistic governments. The EU is in so much trouble right now because they have run out of other peoples money and can't fund their socialistic experiment. I say let them feel the pain of a failed social and economic experiment . Maybe then they will look for answer within themselves instead of an all power central government. Maybe then they will finally realize they are not free.
