Leon Panetta has been on the talk show circuit alleging that
the U.S. will take military action if Iran tries to shut down the Strait of
Hormuz or to complete its nuclear weapons program. He was backed up by General Martin Dempsey,
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
COMMENTS:
Yeah, we are going to drastically cut our nuclear weapons,
shrink our military, deal with North Korea, police the Middle East, deal with
our own Mexican border and take on an Iranian conflict. Sure we are; that all makes sense to you,
doesn’t it? One thing this
Administration does not understand is that when you are dealing with the enemy,
you need to deal from a position of strength, not weakness. All of this latest talk is just hot air.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I still can’t believe that our government is having talks
with the Taliban. What does the
government of Afghanistan think about that?
(Clarice ~ Redding, CA)
A. They’re madder than hell.
Now they’ve initiated their own talks with the Taliban and it is
entirely possible that the Taliban could end up back in control of that
government. That’s the second dumb move
we have made in the Middle East in as many weeks.
Q. Romney is too glib, as far as I am concerned, and a
closet progressive liberal at that. Why
is it that the Republican hierarchy insists on maneuvering him into the
Presidential nomination? (Ivan ~ Bishop,
CA)
A. It goes back to how the House Republicans have been
dealing with the Democrats. They stand
strong on principle until the very last minute and then cave in; this has been
the scenario for the last few years, time after time. So, I’ve said the Republican Party might as
well join the Democratic Party and quit the charade. Now, the Democrats want Romney to be the
candidate because they know they can beat him, and the Republican hierarchy is
trying to help them make that happen. You and I need to either take back control of
the Party or go and form another one.
Q. The drastic military cuts wanted by Obama will severely
put us at risk. Is he out of his
tree? (Steve ~ Paso Robles, CA)
A. Yes. But,
everything he has done since he became President has been calculated to weaken
this country. He has us all fighting
each other, he has destroyed Congress, he’s made a shambles of the Constitution
and he has pushed us to the virtual edge of financial ruin. Anarchy may be closer than we think.
