The last couple of days have pretty well illustrated the Obama/Pelosi administration’s stance on national defense. Obama promised the voters he’d be firm on national defense, and he is. In almost simultaneous moves, Obama has expressed concern about Iran developing nuclear weapons: Obama is so concerned about the threat of Iran’s nuclear weapons program he [...]

While running for President, Obama promised pretty much everything to everyone. In Ohio, he promised to support loan guarantees for uranium enrichment. A cornerstone for the US to ween itself from oil and coal. The promise was convincing, it made logic. It would not only assist in the pursuit of cleaner energy, it would create jobs [...]

That’s according to Rasmussen: Fifty-seven percent (57%) of U.S. voters nationwide favor a military response to eliminate North Korea’s missile launching capability. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that just 15% of voters oppose a military response while 28% are not sure. Now to me, this is where it gets real fun: Just [...]

The events of this weekend seem almost comical to me. Obama had this volley: Barack Obama yesterday announced a radical drive aimed at ridding the world of nuclear weapons, as the focus of his European visit switched from financial to geopolitical security. “In Prague, I will lay out an agenda to seek the goal of a world [...]

At least for now. WASHINGTON – U.S. President Barack Obama’s recent pledge to seek a ban on space weapons drew a mixed reaction from experts in the field, with some saying the president might be better off pursuing something more modest and less complex, such as a set of international rules governing space operations. The [...]

A lot is being made of the Straight of Hormuz incident between the US and Iran a few days ago. The US claims it was harassed and provoked, the Iranians said originally it never happened. You be the judge, here IS the incident as provided by The Pentagon: Now that the whole world can see [...]

You know you’re in a bad way when Google’s context sensitive advertising does this: Now, ya just gotta wonder why “Ann Coulter” would even come up in an article that never mentions her.
