- Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney harshly criticized President Obama's national security strategy yesterday, chastising him for spending billions of dollars to expand social programs at the expense of the military budget, and accusing him of an overseas "tour of apology" that will only embolden violent anti-American extremists.
In a hard-hitting speech designed to build his credentials as commander in chief before a possible second presidential run in 2012, Romney said Obama has made a "grave miscalculation" with budget cuts to a strategic missile defense system that would protect the nation and its allies from nuclear threats.
"Backing away from missile defense and depleting the defense budget to fund new social programs, particularly in the face of global turmoil, would put America and Americans at risk," Romney said, echoing former vice president Dick Cheney's warnings.... Read full article »

If we had a normal media Romney would be are President, the Dow would of never dropped and we would be close to a recovery. But no we have wacko taking us off a cliff. We only have one chance to put a stop to this Insanity 2010 vote them out.View thread
If our next President ever bows to people who have sworn to kill us,it will only be to drive the knife in deeper. No more 9/11's! No more horse s*** from every radical fourth world government who want us dead.Change for change sake is anarchy!
We need,now more than ever.true change. Mr. Romney. President Of The United States Of America. Sounds about perfect!
That is just sooooooo hateful!
We need our military in place to defend us!
We need them to be more than adequately pre-pared and armed with the best!!! Weapons and armor!!
We need our auto manufacturers to NOT be government owned....
What's the worst that could happen if GM went under??? The Union would loose it's possition in that company....
but I guess we know were a good share of Obamas campaign money came from!! He's protecting them well....
I have not bought a brand new car in 20 years... why, because they cost to darn much money!!! You drive off the lot and they depreciate several thousand dollars.... Why are they so expensive.... Union workers making $76 an hour for jobs that require no special schooling, and we wonder why the auto makers are in bankruptcy???
Don't get me wrong, I am all for a fair wage, but Unions today, are bankrupting the companies their members are working for!!! Teachers Unions are another that make demands that tax payers just can not afford!!!
We need to be realistic in our spending... as a nation and as individuals....
MY GOD America - what the hell do you need to hear?
For once I agree with Bill OReilly.
I am afraid we will have to really scrape bottom so the tit hangers suffer as well . Only them will they turn.
By 2010 ?...I doubt it.
