So what?
My dad used to say ev...FROM CAROL HERMAN<br /><br />So what?<br /><br />My dad used to say every time a man calls his wife 'honey' ... all it means is that he's afraid he'd call out his girlfriend's name, instead.<br /><br />You see a happy marriage? This guy could be so henpecked he's got to keep tossing his "strong armed wife" into the limelight. Or he'd have hell to pay.<br /><br />So, how can she be brought into the limelight? Unlike Nancy Reagan, who got her reputation for really being there for Ronnie; you must might be seeing a HOAX.<br /><br />No. I don't know. But I also don't trust Obama. As to his "night out" why not? The job he's got comes with cars and planes at his disposal. <br /><br />You'll also note Michelle Obama thought it was beneath her to meet Sara, Bibi's wife. You think I care?<br /><br />I think Obama is a dangerous guy. And, among the places where he's very, very dangerous, Israel is not in the top slot. Hey, North Korea just showed ya that words don't prevent Obama from changing his mind. He still thinks North Korea is in China's sphere of influence. And, NO Americans will be sent in to fight them. FAILED BACK IN THE 1950's. <br /><br />Don't assume just because America supplies its military with lots of goodies; supplies out the ying yang; that these guys intend to fight.<br /><br />Heck, a better president, Lincoln, spent 4 years worrying what to do with his generals. Who loved to "dig in" and parade around. As far as the US military is concerned? It's a business, made big, on the taxpayers' dimes.<br /><br />Oh, by the way, just from American history, the south, which finally got whipped in the ending months of 1864. Plus, the early months of 1865. Reached the end of the road; but secession? They pulled those stunts with the 7th President, Andrew Jackson. And, he was the first president to threaten the south with military action. The years 1828 to 1832.<br /><br />You don't get to Lincoln until 1860.<br /><br />And, that's how cancers grow.<br /><br />If Obama has a "changed country," where "new minorities" are taking hold, it just means the "old country is gonna die away."<br /><br />What will be left? Spheres of influence. Between China, Russia, and the USA. No outcomes are guaranteed. Because no one knows what the future brings.<br /><br />Obama's just exposed a terrible problem that's been in the works, since the europeans HATED the birth of the State of Israel. Do you know what they wanted? They wanted the Jews to remain refugees.<br /><br />As to what Sadat wanted? He wanted reparations for the oil the Israelis took out of the ground when Israel won. And, Egypt lost the Sinai. Oh, and in America? When they talk of Jerusalem? It's been decades, but Jimmy Carter thought all Israel needed to keep were 3 rocks in the Western Wall. I kid you not.<br /><br />Time marches on.<br /><br />In the future the problem will reach a head. Oh, and America's big fleet? Top heavy. Just like the Spanish Aramada that lost its ships in 3 weeks worth of sea battles with England. (And, all Queen Elizabeth the First had were "row boats." The Aramada couldn't touch them. Because their canons shot up too high. When the damage got counted? Spain's fleet was at the bottom of the sea. And, Queen Elizabeth the First cemented her reign. One outcome pushed the Catholic Church up onto the ropes.<br /><br />But history doesn't provide lessons, as much as it provides insights.<br /><br />Obama's big Egyptian speech? Timed to coincide with Israel's victory back in 1967.<br /><br />LBJ, thereby, lost his ability to run again, in 1968.<br /><br />Of course, Lincoln was successful! That's why he was killed. John Wilkes Booth was even at Lincoln's second inaugural, where he announced that the Union was now slave free. <br /><br />At the time of the Civil War? There had been 33 States in the nation, and 15 of them held slaves.<br /><br />As much as man goes forward, it takes time to see how it all stacks up.Carol_Hermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16629820011087370488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21392130.post-68207112154209417982009-05-31T11:29:00.589-04:002009-05-31T11:29:00.589-04:00Honestly Sammy...you know I love you...but they wa...Honestly Sammy...you know I love you...but they wanted a trip to NYC, they can afford the Broadway tickets and the dinner and perhaps even generated some revenue for NYC that we desperately need. The ONLY way for the President to pull off a trip to the city is if he has the proper security. It's not even up to him, it's the Secret Service's rules and protocal so I can't begrudge them a trip to New York and then bitch about the cost of travel and security...I think above all else the President should be kept safe. <br /><br />It's not like Nancy Pelosi constantly cancelling her flights back and forth to Cali and costing us money every weekend. The Obama's deserve to be kept safe and to have a night out.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04473502695947093047noreply@blogger.com
