Bloggers, Hypocrites and the President Takes Health Care Dollars to Latin America While Our Veterans Are In Dire Need

Can you believe 175,000 new blogs are started every day according to Technorati. There are over 200 million dead and abandoned blogs. The problem seems that there are more blogs than readers.

Global warming may be in our future. Earth over the millenia has had cold years and warm years. A two degree increase in the average temperature is much more beneficial that a two degree drop. The sun has alot to do with how cold or warm our planet gets. The sun is a living organism which heats up and cools down in cycles. God help us if it sends out a powerful burst of energy in our direction. This is also known as the "kill shot", and if it happens you want to be deep underground.

Al Gore, who we voted for, and wish had become our 43rd president, is reported to pay $30,000 a year on energy for his suburban Nashville home and burned 221,0000 kilowatt hours last year, or twenty times the national average. Meanwhile, the producer of an "An Inconvenient Truth" who has denounced SUVs - still flys in private Gulfstream jets. Aren't you tired of the hypocrisy?

President Bush is bound for Latin America with an aid package to teach English and boost health care for Latin Americans. We wish you would stay here Mr. President and fix the problems with health care for our worthy veterans. Reports are coming in now about other problems in other hospitals, just not Walter Reed. A soldier with a head wound was told it wasn't his severe head wound that was the problem, but that he was retarded. The President has been reported to go to bed at 9 pm every night. But it would be nice if he could stay up an extra hour or two and devote that time to solving the appalling conditions our wounded veterans are up against. The President has asked the Defense Department to do a bipartisan inquiry of the problems at Walter Reed and the other hospitals. But military families have been complaining for years, and their concerns have been arrogantly dismissed. The American people are rightfully outraged.

We remember another Republican president, who was in office during an unpopular war in the early seventies. One weekend the White House was besieged by hundreds of thousands of protestors, camping and burning fires around the White House grounds. President Nixon, who stayed up late and seemed much more engaged than our current president (except during the darkest days of Watergate) decided to visit the protestors. In the wee hours of the morning, with his valet behind the wheel, President Nixon snuck out of the White House and drove over to the Lincoln Memorial to visit some of the anti-war protestors. Needless to say, the young people were in shock to be talking to the President of the United States. The parlay ended when carloads of Secret Service showed up to retrieve the missing president. We wish President Bush was as engaged as Nixon was. President Bush, we beg you....step up to the plate. Deliver decent heath care to our veterans, please. They deserve no less.
