I watched C-Span one night this week concerning the problems with the Walter Reed Hospital
located in our nation’s capitol. The Dallas Morning News wrote that the “Commanders Admit Fault”.
In my opinion, admitting it is a cop-out. Why did they allow this to happen? They sit up there all dressed
to the “nines” in their respective armed services dress uniforms and admit the fault. That is the easy part.
Our government fired the General who was in charge. Why fire him? Give him the job of cleaning up this
mess that he chose to sweep under the rug. He was paid a salary, but, he didn’t deliver the goods.
Looks to me like he owes America for his salary. I say make him to fix the problem.
When folks like this have a tremendous responsibility as this is or was, why does it happen? I always thought that the
politicians were the ones that couldn’t be trusted. As much as I respect our President, our government
is in a hell of a fix. All politicians do is talk, talk, talk, and pass the buck.
Government used to be responsible for their actions and accountable to the American people
who elected them to do so. Seems to me, that they are only accountable to the Lobbyist who has the most
money in his or her pocket. Lobbying should be repealed. The common American pays dearly for what they have
and don’t have. This “legal extortion” needs to stop now. As Harry S Truman used to say: “The Buck Stops Here”.
Of course we know that, that won’t happen. Congressmen do one thing and say another. They voted in a
tremendous retirement package for themselves and their wives. The cowards didn’t have the “balls” to subject
this bill to a vote of the American people because they know it would have crashed and burned.
That is why they continue to take money out of our Social Security system and give it to the illegal alien
who didn’t earn it or pay into it. If Social Security comes up short, hey, Congress won’t have to worry about
it ’cause they have their own retirement benefits, courtesy of you and me. We know who the Patriots are
in America, and they certainly don’t reside in Washington DC.
Our elected officials are all about the almighty dollar. Our FDA sells us out to the pill companies, and look what
happens. Some of these pills kill people, but, the responsible ones get a way with it while padding their
bank accounts.
Life, IS, like a box of Chocolates….We Never Know What Is Gonna Come Outta Washington DC.
