Pakistan Steps up Aid to Enemy

Flag of the National Front for the Liberation ...Image via WikipediaIn a move that seems to be directed toward aiding AL Queda and the Taliban, Pakistan has closed one of the main supply routes into Afghanistan. Pakistan has been far from an ally to the U.S. It is the center of fundamentalism in the region and it allows terrorist to openly train with inside it's borders. Their secret intelligence service is and has been linked to terrorist for over a decade. Pakistan is clearly a hostile nation.
      At this point it would be best to cut all ties to Pakistan and cut the military funding we have given them out of the budget. When a nation allows attacks from with in their borders on Americans they become a terrorist nation. It is time we closed our borders to Pakistanis and give them what they so desperately desire, our back. They have no use for the U.S. and aiding them is the equivalent of sending aide to North Vietnam and The VietCong during The Vietnam War. Let them have a militant take over of their country. At least we will have visible targets for our missiles.
     Reagan said it best. You don't make friends with your enemies you kill them. Pakistan is an Evil Empire to steal Reagan's words about The Soviet Union. It is insanity to send humanitarian aide to the same people that are training the terrorist that are trying to kill us in our homes.
     They have shown their true colors now. They want to keep supplies from reaching our troops, so that the militants can kill Americans and turn Afghanistan back into the launching pad for 9/11 style attacks on the U.S. It is a pity that the U.S. has a hire standard than these animals that crawl through caves to kill our soldiers and send people to bomb Time Square, because if we didn't we could simply use chemical weapons on them and have it done and over with.
     That is what you do with pests you call in the exterminators tent the house and gas them. That is no less than what they would do to us if they gained access to nuclear devices. We can no longer take the risk that these maniacs will get a device from Iran or God forbid Pakistan and plant it in NYC. Obama has held true to his statement that he would chase the terrorist into Pakistan and kill them if Pakistan did not have the will or the ability to deal with them. If Pakistan wanted the terrorist out I guarantee you they would not be operating openly in Pakistan. More over, they would not be the headquarters of the terrorists organizations and the staginging grounds for attacks.
     The facts are crystal clear here. Pakistan doesn't have the will or the desire to see the terrorist leave.

Dear Barak

Sept 17 2008 3Image by CS Muncy via Flickr

As a member of the Democratic Committee I would like to express some thoughts.
You have assembled some of the most intelligent people in the country. The problem is you listen to them. First for get the Republicans. They are living in an alternative universe. People do not care what are saying. They don't see them doing anything to give them jobs and you might point that out in your next press conference.
It's time to get your head out of your asses down there. People don't care about politics right now. They want to see action.
The health care reform issue is important. Every minute that the Senate spends playing pass the beach ball someone who is ub=insured is dying. We need a public option just to keep the insurance companies honest, because even if they can not deny coverage to people because of a pre-existing condition, they will walk through the biggest loop hole they can find. One of those loop holes is calling every thing experimental. They already use this excuse. You have one shot to get this right and passing just anything is not an option, because real people are counting on you.
Issue number 2 is Afghanistan. Troops are dying there. If you are not going to pull out then you better kick the Taliban's ass. I say this, because people are tired of the death toll on the news.
Pulling out is an option. If you pulled out let the Taliban in and then went in in force and took them out you could avoid a lot of heartache.
If you are going to put more troops in then don't announce it for gods sake. Did we announce Normandy. The post Vietnam era is full of vacillation, because we are afraid to lose and afraid to win. The bottom line is that people would support a large offensive if it produced long term results and the Afghans gained the ability to protect their country. We created the Taliban. We trained them and it's time we took them out. Afghanistan in the hands of Alquaida and the Taliban we completely destabilize the middle east and result in huge increases in the price of oil. The insurgents are attacking Iran now. If they spread militant Islam ism across the middle east we will be in a hell of a position. Doing nothing is not an option. Drop the 40,000 into Afghanistan in a massive surprise offensive and tell the press after. It is time we stop telling the enemy what we are doing.
Jobs are issue number three. No one is buying the happy talk about the improving economy. The days of spending money we don't have are over, so we know that consumers are not going to drive this economy.
If you want to cut the budget deficit in half and put people to work, start changing the countries problem with oil dependency by following T Bone Pickens energy plan. This will cut people energy bills in half. The result of cutting people's energy bills in half will be an increase in spending by the consumers of things that factories produce, rather than pouring their money down the black hole that the oil companies have become. This would also result in jobs in the private sector, increased revenue for the US government, and a huge reduction in the deficit, which is what you are all worried about down there.
These three solutions would also push your pole numbers up to where they were in November of 2008.
The problem in the White House is to much talking and hand wringing over poll numbers. For Christ sake, Roossevelt didn't spend all his time watching news bites that said he was inept. He went out and kicked tail and took names. Worrying is what happens while your life falls apart. Doing something is better than failing bcause you did nothing.
