You know, there comes a point and time when enough really is enough! Now, we are discussing Iran's supply of weapons to Iraq and some alQaida big wheel has gone to Iran, that was supposed to have infiltrated Iraq. Well, then why are we talking about more war? If the guy has left Iraq, haven't we done our job? I was planning to blog on another topic, today, but I guess that will have to wait, as our fearless leader is searching out the whereabouts of yet another arch nemesis. I was reading about the increase of "waivers" for those enlisting in the military. That's right, waivers to excuse their criminal convictions, and now we are ready to forgive their mistakes and hand them a rifle. I believe the term "lower the standard" would certainly apply, here. How does this make sense, when the average law abiding citizen can't get a late payment off of a credit report? Who is this making sense to? I'm getting about half sick of listening to this new Congress, too. How many hours are they going to debate a topic that has already been decided and their discussion will have no bearing on any decision made? Do they really think the American public is impressed with how they choose to spend their time or waste it? If this subject is out of the hands of Congress, then spend the time on any of the myriad of subjects that need to be addressed by legislators. I read that five minutes will be alotted to each of the 435 House members to voice their perspective and debate the War in Iraq, which amounts to more than 36 hours spent on a subject that will change nothing. Is this the new Congress's idea of effective government?
In the midst of all of this, I read today that our President plans to bring 7000 refugees of Iraq to America. Now, we've been over there for 4 years and we don't know the insurgents from the high schoolers and the terrorists from the grandmas and we've been listening to this warmongering rhetoric about fighting "it" over there, rather than on American soil, and now we're going to fight over there and import the probability over here? Please!!! He is also promising funding to help relocate refugees internationally and over 3 million have already left the country since we started the war. Do we know who we are fighting for? Do we know who we are fighting? And who we will be helping to relocate and who we will be bringing to America? If everyone is moving away, who will be there for the freedom and democracy? Say, since this new Iraqi government is all about free elections and their leader has already said they are a sovereign nation, and this war is a liberation not an occupation. Why don't we let the Iraqi citizens vote on the presence of American forces in their country? If they vote us out, we would have the manpower to start more . . . because obviously this is our future.
For the eyes of YHVH run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward Him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.
