My Policy For Afghanistan

I'm sick of this. I'm tired of playing around. Am I the only person on the planet that knows we are in more danger now than we were when Adolph Hitler was trying to rule the world? He was in located in Europe; he didn't have "Nazi cells" positioned around the globe the way jihadists are positioned today. My Granny had a saying that so applies to the situation we are in today. She always said, "Pee or get off the pot." There ain't anything like Okie common sense. Barrack Hussein Obama rolled out his Afghan policy. He didn't pee and he is still sitting on the pot. It's time for me to let the world know what I would do. I call it (Thank you, Toby Keith!) "The Boot Policy."

Remember Pearl Harbor? Japan bombed us. We went to war with Japan. After some time, Harry S. Truman took care of business. He dropped one bomb and gave Japan a choice. Japan didn't make the right choice, so he dropped another one. They got it right that time. Remember 9/11? Jihadist crashed planes into our buildings, killing thousands? We went to war with the terrorists. Well, it's been some time and no one is taking care of business. Oh, how I'd love to be the one to take care of business. No nukes involved this time, but I would follow Truman's basic idea...

Let's carpet bomb Afghanistan. Surround that country with our bombers. Bomb 100 miles into it's borders. When I say bomb, I mean BOMB! Not just a bomb here and a bomb there. Bomb every inch 100 miles into Afghanistan. Let Afghanistan know that if it doesn't turn over every member of the Taliban and every jihadist as well everyone who has helped them, we'll start bombing again. Just like with Japan, if they make the wrong decision, we bomb again - 100 miles deeper into their country. Hopefully, they figure it out. If not, we keep bombing until Afghanistan is as flat as Kansas and makes New Orleans look like high ground.

I have two speeches already written for after the bombing. I can't decide which is best. "Who is next?" is my first idea and "Bring it on!" is the other option. My mom would probably want me to use her famous quote "You want some of this?"

I can already hear the opposition on this idea of mine. I have answers for that...

"There will be so many casualties."

DUH! This is war. People die during war. Good guys, bad guys, innocent men, women and children die during war. It happens and it can't be changed. People complain about all the American casualties since the two wars started. I guess they don't remember how many Americans died at Normandy and at Midway and during the Battle of the Bulge. We either fight them over there or we fight them over here. I prefer to fight them somewhere other than my front yard. I'm a little funny about a war taking place across my street. And, yes, it will come to that if we don't do something now.

"The U.N. won't like it."

So what if they don't like it? Last time I checked, we were the United States of America and not the United States of the U.N. I remember a time when we made up our own minds as to what we would or would not do. We didn't need permission from anyone else. I think we should be able to do what we want to do when it come to our safety.

"The world will hate us."

Like that is something new. Let them hate us. Maybe they'll stop coming over here illegally and draining our resources. They might even stop luring our jobs overseas. Maybe they'll shut their mouths about us after what they see we will do to those who try to destroy us. Remember when we respected? That was back when we didn't act like weak weanies when it came to our national security. Iran took American hostages and Jimmy Carter played around with them for months and months. Ronald Reagan said what he'd do once he was elected President. I may be wrong, but I seem to remember the hostages being on a plane before he was even sworn in as our Commander and Chief. It could have been while he was taking the oath of office; I was kid when that happened, but I do know they were safe before the sunset that night.

"There will be sanctions against us."

I kinda like that idea. Remember when America grew our own wheat, built our own cars and, brace yourself for this one - drilled our own oil? I'm sure we can remember how that is done. We don't need the lead-ridden toys from China anyway or their poisonous dog food. Japan can keep all their fancy gadgets. Hey, if we start making stuff like that ourselves, we'd create jobs. Unemployment would drop as Americans got back to work. I'm no expert, but I think that would help our economy.

"It'll be expensive."

Yes, it will be. Money well spent, in my opinion. How much has it cost us already? Get it over with in a few days and it isn't even more money spent year after year after year. It's only jet fuel and bombs. We could even start bomb factories - put folks back to work. We could use our own oil to make the jet fuel.

"It isn't a very nice thing to do."

It wasn't very nice to hijack planes and fly them into buildings, killing thousands. It wasn't very nice to bomb the barracks in Beirut or the USS Cole. It isn't very nice to give help to those who did such horrible things. The time for being nice is long over. It's time to take care of business and protect ourselves.

Did you ever just have enough? I'm past that point. I hate to think of more people suffering and dying, but it is either now or later. We can either end it now or let it drag on for a decade or two. How many will die before it ends? If we take care of business now, it will probably save lives. Especially American lives. I'm tired of playing. I'm tired of worrying about when the next attack will be. I'm tired of hearing about female circumcisions and little girls who can't go to school. Pee or get off the pot.

Health Care In America

One of the biggest problems I see with government run health care, insurance or whatever they are calling it today is the fact that the American government has enough on its plate already. Obama (I prefer calling him "BamBam") and the rest of his left-wing, liberal Socialist followers (AKA blind sheep) do not seem to understand that there are too many unsolved problems in this country already.

What about education? The schools are broken and need to be fixed. Public schools are no place for children yet they are still attempting to educate our future. The books are old. There aren't enough teachers. What teachers we have are underpaid. Fix that and then move on to the next problem.

What about our roads? Bridges are falling apart. Highways need to be paved. We aren't even safe driving from place to place. Fix our roads and other infrastructure and then move on to the next problem.

What about our military? Our troops need equipment. They need guns, bullets, protective gear and all sorts of other things civilians can't begin to guess. Protect them and give them the power to protect us from our enemies. Take care of our military and then move on to the next problem.

Oh, yeah, almost forgot. We are fighting two wars. Turn our military loose and let them do what they've been trained to do. Let them fight the Islamic extremists who want to see us destroyed. Let them protect us and Israel.

What about Israel? We need to make sure they have their country back. God isn't going to let anyone take the land He gave them. Despite everything, God has never turned His back on His people. We should follow His example and do the same. We need to make sure Israel exists peacefully. Take care of Israel and move on to the next problem.

What about our financial problems? Let's get our country out of debt. Stop paying the bills of huge businesses that made bad financial decisions and get our country back on track. Stop giving away money that you don't have and start making some of your own. Take care of our national debt and move on to the next problem.

What about unemployment? Maybe if Americans had jobs they could pay for their own health insurance. Novel idea - paying your own way. Stop shipping our jobs overseas and let Americans earn our own way. Take care of unemployment and move on to the next problem.

What about illegal aliens in America? Send them back where they came from. Stop letting them drain our resources. Stop paying to educate their children, feed and clothe them. They are criminals and should be treated as such. Take care of the illegals in America and move on to the next problem.

What about the other problems? The list is longer than my arm. I could keep listing them, but it is obvious already there are other things we need to take care of first. Social security. Abortion. Socialism. Removing God from our country. Fix them and then think about health care.

My daughter is four years old. She knows the rules. She eats what is on her plate and then she can have more - even a dessert. As parents, we know not to heap more than she can eat on her plate. We call it common sense. It isn't so common anymore. Scary thought here...Follow our simple example...

BamBam and your blind sheep, eat what is already on your plate and then go on to health care.
