Obama has been making lots of foreign policy speeches lately……not much of it I agree with at this time……but the question has been asked….”what is America’s role in the world?”

Ever hit one of those plateaus? One that no matter what you read it is all too silly to comment? I have hit one! I have been reading more and more Right wing sites and have found that they have NOTHING new. So there is nothing for me to take exception to…..for now that is.
Since there is noting that warrants a separate post I will just rant a bit…..join in if you feel frisky.
1–I read a news headline that the Nigerian government has banned all get Our girls back….the report sez that the protests are interfering with negotiations with Boko Haram…..I understand the safety of these young ladies is paramount….but negotiations rally gonna stop this sort of thing from happening again?
2–I try to write about gun violence as to upset some of my right wing brethren…….and I usually ask what would be said it a bunch of left wing nuts showed up at some protest….would they stand behind their rights? So far I got NO answer to that.
3–there was a time, a while back, when I gave the Tea Party the benefit of the doubt….deep down I thought they truly had the best interests of the country at heart…….I have since changed my mind……I now think they are just contrary and the country means nothing to them as long as they can crap of everything being tried to solve problems.
4–the GOP has finally decided that the VA is an important issue…..they were petty much silent during the Walter reed issue……..they had little to say about all the problems at Arlington cemetery…….but now that there is a chance to embarrass the prez they are all hopped up on adrenalin……They become more pathetic as they speak……
5–and then there are those that think saying ‘thank you’ to a veteran is enough….it is NOT….all it is is a gesture of which I question the sincerity……if they really gave a shit then they would see that politicians that truly care are elected……a ‘thank you’…..is nothing but gesture.
