Please accept an American Citizens apology for what our President has done

Embassy of the Republic of Poland
2650 16th St. NW
Washington, DC 20009

Dear Ambassador,

The American people stand with the people of Poland in defense of your nation. We thank you for your support in the War on Terror. Our President announcing he would not defend your nation and ours on the 70th Anniversary of the Soviet invasion of your nation was wrong and without feeling. It is not the feeling of most Americans. We appreciate your nation being our ally. May God bless Poland and the Polish people.

With Warm Regards,
Gary Howell

The Pakistan Plan

We'd better have a plan ready. Now.

Since Obama took office, the situation in Pakistan has gone from bad to worse as Taliban forces continue to build momentum and march on the capital. A crucial American ally in the region is about to go the way of Iran and South Vietnam. We had better have a expeditionary force of some sort ready.

Why? Why not let them fall into history like South Vietnam? Why risk more US lives in endless wars against fundamentalism halfway around the world.

Nuclear weapons, that is why. We cannot let terrorists acquire nuclear weapons, especially a group willing to die for their cause. Even worse, they would likely be more aggressive towards Pakistan's historic enemy India, who also has nuclear arms.

Is India likely to tolerate such as disastrous situation on its own borders? At this point it is hard to tell. The only possible help for this situation is a United States currently in a mode of Defense Department firesale.

First, whether they want it or not, US air power must be used against the Taliban to break up and break down their forces. If all else fails, we need an international team of special forces to seize all Pakistani nuclear components before the country falls.

Allowing Pakistani nuclear arms to fall into the hands of Islamic fundamentalist militants who have encouraged destructive attacks on the United States would be a criminal act of folly on the part of the Obama Administration. It is time to stop wasting money on frivolities, stop gutting the Defense Department, and start rounding up a posse to prevent a nuclear Taliban.

Great News For Those Excited About the return of the Death Tax

Obama promised change. If a man owns a business and dies before he can turn it over to his children, change is all they will have. Obama's budget resurrected the death tax.

The government and knowledgeable accountants are the only ones that benefit from this ghastly tax which takes 50% from every estate. Certainly some can figure ways around the tax, but what about the business or farm owner that dies suddenly and young. Tough break. Uncle Barack is coming to steal his share
*********************************************************************

As soon as we get a weak president, the sabre rattling begins. Our Defense Department claims it is impotent to stop any illegal rocket launch from North Korea. (Oh really? An overflight of B-52s, a launch of Tomahawks, etc. before launch wouldn't stop it?) Why on earth does one trumpet weakness to the world anyway? Now North Korea threatens US Navy vessels patrolling in international waters offshore.

Credibility is hard to get. tougher to keep. We lost eight years of credibility in eight weeks. Who respects us now?
*************************************************************************

The next world leader that suffers from the Obama wraparound ought to turn around and slug him. He did it to Bush and now he has done it to Prime Minister Gordon Brown. In front of the cameras, Obama likes to put his arm around the shoulder of a leader, a condescending looking gesture. One British reporter said it looked like Obama was shepherding the Prime Minister from the room. The effect is as if Obama's saying, don't worry, I'm here. As if he is the experienced world leader.
