The United States is facing as great a threat now as at any time in the last century. Back in the early 1900's the US was protected by two wide oceans, and other nations of the world did not realize how powerful the US was. Now the US basically has a target on its back. Everyone is gunning for us. The Iranians have been conducting asymmetrical warfare against us since 1979. The Chinese military claims they are conducting "unrestricted" warfare aginst the US. And on top of that our Southern Border is being breached by Mexico. The real problem for us is the political paralysis that has decended on us due to the perfidy of the Democrats, who seem to be willing to sacrifice all to get back at the "evil" George Bush. The situation is not yet hopeless, but is looking bad. We need to get our act together quickly. For example, the Iranians themselves are vulnerable to assymetrical warfare. We could arm the Kurds and turn them loose on Iran. The Shiite Arabs in Southern Iran really don't like the Persians, so we could use Iraq to cause some problems in that region. Regarding the Chinese, they seem to be trying to get control of enough of the oil supply to damage us economically. They can get Russia to line up against us, and are trying to make friends with Iran, Venezula, and other oil producing nations. We could do something about that such as drilling in Alaska and off-shore, and developing more energy sources, such as building safe pebble bed nuclear reactors. We could also use leverage to get Mexico to allow us to develop more of their oil which they seem incpable of doing. After all, we are absorbing much of their population to stave off starvation in Mexico. The present immigration debate in Washington further demonstrates the incompetence of our National government. If the Democrats had another Harry Truman, I'd be for him, since the Republicans would not damage national security as the Democrats have been doing to gain control. But, I don't see a Truman or a Jack Kennedy in the current Democrat leadership. Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Harry Reid, Howard Dean, Nancy Pelosi and the others just don't measure up.
