Why Do The Republicans Always Go For The Wrong Thing? |
|
Case in point; several months ago the Republicans delivered 1.5 billion dollars to persons unknown in Northern Iraq, they could have walked in off the street, the Republicans just handed them 1.5 billion dollars, no questions asked.
Now we might ask what would that 1.5 billion dollars buy? For starts that would have paid for securing the Russian Nuclear Weapons stockpile. That is the amount that the Republican congress refuses to pony-up because we don’t have the money.
It would be a legitimate question would be; do you feel safer because the Republicans gave 1.5 billion dollars to some unknown person in the north of Iraq, or, would you feel more secure knowing that the cold-war nuclear weapons of the former Soviet Russia was being secured?
The Republicans evidently think that handing out large green to unknown persons is strategically more important than making sure that nuclear warheads do not get into the hands of terrorist. Makes you wonder if maybe we should give stupid test before allowing someone to represent us!

1. well yeah, and then there's the root stuff of the Plame scandal |
|
which is the outing of her cover company Brewster Jennings and associates, which allegedly was still being used as a cover in the field for people preventing nuclear proliferation in the middle east...And that was supposedly because Wilso said the Niger yellowcake intel was fake, which is now widely known. So yeah, you have to wonder, really wonder.
