Since my new position it has been difficult to get a ricantotheright out. I'm typing this one from 33,000 feet on my way to Atlantic City for a trade show. Since my last blog I have lost count of the numerous scandals and controversies that have rocked nearly every facet of our country. The nation seems to be slowly imploding. Either by design or just sheer incompetence the current elected bodies just cannot right the ship. I will not put the blame entirely on the Obama administration, however our GOP leaders have had plenty of opportunities to stop this and have not. Compromise it seems is the only way that politicians believe that anything can get done in Washington anymore. I say enough is enough with compromise. What about just sheer use of the old take an stand. How about we distinguish ourselves clearly and plainly for the American public.
How could have we been different in all the scandals? Let's take them one at a time and see if we could have done different. Benghazi, as soon as we would have known that the embassy was under attack scramble fighters from Aviano to provide air support to assist those security forces on the ground. Anyone attacking would have been quickly destroyed withing minutes. No discussing sovereignty or policy, protect people first apologize later. The IRS. If anyone were to come into the White House asking to meet advisors to discuss how to curb political speech, they would have been immediately fired or placed on leave and investigation called for to see if there are any others involved and a order sent out to all offices warning of and prohibiting this behavior.
The VA. My goodness Barry has been saying he is going to fix the VA since he entered into office. What we don't really understand is the Osama philosophy on the military is as a tool of government expansion. The military he believes should be converted to a force that is only used in extreme cases internationally but mostly for domestic control. That pesky constitution is the only thing currently holding him back. In light of that frustration he is at an alarming rate frustration top brass to push that experience out and inject his virus into the military. The vets coming home injured are an annoyance. We saw that as the news got worse the president decided to do his 176th round of golf. The VA is an easy fix. Call in a special prosecutor and put people in prison and fire anyone that got a bonus while vets died waiting in line.
If I have forgotten a scandal or escapade by the administration forgive me I'm starting to lose track.
