Health Care Reform: Keepin' It Stealth!

  Earlier this year we canceled the F-22 Raptor program which is the most advanced stealth fighter and the only 5th generation fighter in the world.  Why?  Because it was too expensive!  God forbid we keep our nation safe with the latest and most advanced military technology in the world.  There are more important things like all the people dying in the streets because of our horrific health care system.

  Late Saturday night the House passed the Health Care Reform Act.  This is the latest in stealth technology since it cost much more than the Raptor program and nobody even saw it!  Remember when Pelosi said the final version of the bill would be posted online for 72 hours so Americans could view it?  Well in typical liberal fashion she quickly took that back and made sure a vote would get done on Saturday night after a mere 200 or so amendments were also added to the bill.  So just like a stealth fighter, we heard about it but never got to see it before the bombs were already dropped.  Keep in mind that this bill was another emergency that needs to be passed right away or millions would continue to suffer!  Just like that stimulus bill that would keep the unemployment rate below 8.5%...

  Last week there was a horrible shooting at Fort Hood in Texas.  An Army Officer who just happened to be Muslim decided it would be a good idea to start killing soldiers that were about to deploy to Afghanistan.  He was scheduled to deploy as well but since 2001 has spoken out and been an advocate against both wars.  Its also been reported that he has tried to contact Al Qaeda so he could join the great ranks of those holy warriors of Islam.  Political correctness needs to stop now.  We face a clearly defined enemy and that is  Islamic terrorists.  I once observed two Middle Eastern men wearing dark sunglasses and acting strange in a security line at an airport.  Between them and myself was an old woman who was barely able to walk with her cane.  These men passed through the checkpoint without question or even a second look and the probably 70 or older year old woman was taken aside and searched.  This occurred in 2003 so I can only imagine how much less attention would be paid to a suspicious person now for fear of someone crying race profiling.

  President Obama seemed to be a bit upset that the attack at Fort Hood happened since when he was speaking at a Native American Council meeting it took him an entire 5 minutes into his speech before any mention of the tragedy at Fort Hood.  He was too busy introducing people, thanking people and then the expression of disgust that he had to stop something on his busy agenda to mention a tragedy.  Then again why would he care about the men and women in uniform, hes left them hanging in Afghanistan for months while he plays.
