A Farewell to Arms

With apologies to Ernest Hemingway's 1929 novel of the same name, we must bid A Farewell to Arms. That is, a farewell to the once great American Armed Forces.

You see, with the Democrats now fully in charge of everything (even the banks and General Motors) they no longer find it necessary to maintain the American Armed Forces at their current level. According to Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin there will be "painful cuts" in the military budget. I guess the Democrats don't think that it is necessary to be militarily strong in today's brave new world led by Mr. Barrack Hussein Obama. After all, he is the messiah so why would anyone want to hurt him or our nation?

But on the very same day that the article on cutting our Armed Forces comes out, the U.S. Naval Institute comes out with a very disconcerting article about a new Chinese Kill Weapon. The weapon is a modified Dong Feng 21 missile and is now known as an Anti-Ship Ballistic Missile, or ASBM. That missile can destroy the U.S.S Ronald Reagan in one shot from a distance of over 1,200 miles! It will come in almost undetectable at a speed of about mach 10, which is faster than even the B.O. can spend money!

I know that this probably doesn't phase those Democrats that just simply don't care, but clearly there are those in the world that would do this nation harm given the opportunity. If we as a nation are unable to defend ourselves from the likes of the Chinese, the Russians, or any other nation that takes aim at us, then the future looks even bleaker today than it did yesterday.

We must vote the Democrats out of power next year before it is too late. They are drunk with power. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. In just the two months they have been in power they have done enough damage to our economy, our military, our government, and to our children's future to last for generations. It is time to stop them.

Vote - while we still can.
