Obama, Clinton, and Kerry’s feckless foreign policy have virtually guaranteed that we are re-entering the Cold War that we won under Reagan. It will cost us dearly for years to come and will become a real danger to our safety.

Putin is a savage, ruthless, man with an insatiable lust for power who has the same mindset as Hitler.

Tragically our current leadership has the same mindset as Neville Chamberlin, PM of the UK in the late ‘30’s, who acquiesced to Hitler. That led us into WW2.

Part 2) Last month we added about 288k jobs. The unemployment rate sank to 6.3%. All good news, right? Well, notsomuch when you peel back the layers of this bitter onion.

In fact Team Obama’s Bureau of Labor Statistics tells us that the number of people with jobs (employed) actually declined by 73,000 during April. Don’t believe me check it out for yourself in the first table in their report: Link

The reason that the u/e rate dropped is because more than 92 million Americans remain out of the labor force. Yep, the number of people working or looking for work fell. In fact the civilian labor force dropped by 806,000 last month, following an increase of 503,000 in March. Not good, not good at all. A very important stat is the employment-population ratio. Once again, it dropped last month.

Our Democrat friends accuse Republicans of waging war on women, yet the Dems now control our economy and the number of women 16 and older not in the labor force climbed to a record high of 55,116,000 in April, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. They accuse us of racism, yet the u/e rate for American African men is more than double that of Caucasian males. American African women’s rate of u/e is 10.4%, with Caucasian women the rate is 4.7%. Why haven’t the Democrats helped business create jobs?

Team Obama would have you believe that all is well in our economy. It’s not!  The U.S. economy barely grew in the first quarter. In fact, gross domestic product expanded at a miniscule 0.1 percent annual rate, the slowest since the fourth quarter of 2012, the Commerce Department said on Wednesday. Deer Friends, in addition to losing our foreign policy initiatives, we are losing the economy.

Part 3) The other day there was a news item that claimed that Hillary Clinton was opposed to same sex marriage.  I didn’t believe it so I did a little research. I discovered that I was wrong, there is an abundance of evidence that she is, or least was, firmly opposed to same sex marriage.

Clinton said in January 2000 that marriage does not include gay unions: “Marriage has got historic, religious and moral content that goes back to the beginning of time and I think a marriage is as a marriage has always been, between a man and a woman.” She said she would have voted for the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act, but again said she supported partnership benefits for same-sex couples. Gay groups expressed disappointment in her position.

In October of 2006 HC, while meeting with a group of gay elected officials, defended her posture on The Defense of Marriage act. She defended the act.

HC dodged when asked in March of 2007 whether she agreed with Gen. Peter Pace, then-chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, whether homosexuality was immoral. “I am going to leave that to others to conclude…”

In August of 2007, Clinton reaffirmed her opposition to gay marriage but tried to cast it in a less negative light. “I prefer to think of it as being very positive about civil unions…”  Link

A CRITIC WROTE: FTR,

It is becoming obvious that you are an anti-American. You say that it is of no concern what Clive Bundy did but lets attack the  government and governments’ response. When you have an individual that owes over 1 million dollars and that refuses to pay, threatens to use guns to block the authorities, it stands to reason that those attempting to the warrants would come armed. Next you complain that they brought trucks and earth movers. Earth movers were needed to move the blockades  that had been erected and trucks to take away the cattle, perhaps you could squeeze them all into your car. Than you criticized the use of helicopters, with the size of some of these ranches being hundreds if not thousands of acres, machines such as those were necessary. As for saying that Harry Reid soiled himself by calling these people domestic terrorists, what would you call them. They threatened the use of violence to prevent authorities from doing their job, They also threaten to use their wives and children as human shields, similar to Sadaam Hussains’ tactics. At the risk of being uncivil, Reid did not soil himself but perhaps you ejaculated in your knickers at the prospect of smearing the United States.

As an aside Clive Bundy did say on national television that he did not believe in the United States. Of course I bet that when he sells his cattle  he only takes American money. As a further aside Sean Hannity of FOX news who called Bundy a real good guy with a great family backed away so fast when Clive opened his mouth and let the world know that he was just another racist crook.

Yes sir FTR you sure know how to pick your friends. And please if you want civil be civil.

A Vet and moderate

FTR’S RESPONSE: Tomorrow.
