CAN YOU NAME THIS COUNTRY?
709,000 REGULAR (ACTIVE DUTY) PERSONNEL.
293,000 RESERVE TROOPS.
EIGHT STANDING ARMY DIVISIONS.
20 AIR FORCE AND NAVY AIR WINGS WITH 2,000 COMBAT AIRCRAFT
232 STRATEGIC BOMBERS.
19 STRATEGIC BALLISTIC MISSILE SUBMARINES WITH 3,114 NUCLEAR WARHEADS
ON 232 MISSILES.
500 ICBMs WITH 1,950 WARHEADS.
FOUR AIRCRAFT CARRIERS AND 121 SURFACE COMBAT SHIPS AND SUBMARINES PLUS ALL
THE SUPPORT BASES, SHIPYARDS, AND LOGISTICAL ASSETS NEEDED TO SUSTAIN SUCH A
NAVAL FORCE.
IS THIS COUNTRY- RUSSIA? NO
CHINA? NO
GREAT BRITAIN? NO
FRANCE? WRONG AGAIN (What a Laugh!!!!!)
MUST BE USA? STILL WRONG (SORT OF)
GIVE UP?
THESE ARE THE AMERICAN MILITARY FORCES THAT WERE ELIMINATED DURING THE
ADMINISTRATION OF BILL CLINTON AND AL GORE.
AND [their elimination] was 100% SUPPORTED BY JOHN KERRY (THESE HE DID VOTE
ON)
SLEEP WELL!
This is not a new message, but a reminder of why we now have over-deployed our National Guard and Reserve Units. HE SAID CHECK THE RECORD!
Sen. John Kerry, Democrat from Massachusetts says he is the strongest
Presidential Candidate on National Defense! He said Check the Record.
We Did!
Here is what we learned:
He voted to kill the Bradley Fighting Vehicle
He voted to kill the M-1 Abrams Tank
He voted to kill every Aircraft carrier laid down from 1988
He voted to kill the Aegis anti aircraft system
He voted to Kill the F-15 strike eagle
He voted to Kill the Block 60 F-16
He voted to Kill the P-3 Orion upgrade
He voted to Kill the B-1
He voted to Kill the B-2
He voted to Kill the Patriot anti Missile system
He voted to Kill the FA-18
He voted to Kill the B-2
He voted to Kill the F117
He voted to kill every military appropriation for the development and
deployment of every weapons systems since 1988, including a bill for battle
armor for our troops.
It is most likely, with Sen. John Kerry as President and Commander in Chief
of our Armed Services, that they will cease to function making it impossible
for our country to protect itself.
John Kerry voted to kill all antiterrorism activities of each and every
agency of the US Government.
He voted to cut the funding of the FBI by 60%.
He voted to cut the funding for the CIA by 80%.
He voted to cut the funding for the NSA by 80%.
THEN, and this is abhorrent to almost every American Voter be you Democrat,
Republican or Independent, he voted to increase OUR funding for U.N
operations by 800% !!
Ask yourself Is THIS the person you want as President of these United States
providing for the Common Defense of the Nation and be the Leader of the Free
World?
let's hope it's not kerry! |

Wow, the world must indeed have become a better place now that those warheads (10 for each country on the world?) have been destroyed. How many has the US still left, 20 more for each country on the Free World? If you'd use al those nukes there wouldn't be a world left, so why keep 'em?
Anyway, the US leader is not my leader, calling the president of the US the leader (with a capital L?) of the Free World makes me sick.
That voting stuff in the US looks more and more like a cheap soap. You should rename the elections to American Idols.

The USA spends 50% of it's budget on defense - It is alarming, a continuing trend since wwII - it is unfair to it's citizens, and dangerous. Sadly the few ideas put forth about how to contol this kind of unreasonable military expansion are acceptable (ie. Nadar et. al.)to most citizens, and much less so to the powerful. |

Unfair and dangerous? How is it unfair and dangerous? They are there to protect us and they can't do that without money...

I must answer this question with a question.... What does any subject ie. flora; fauna; landscape; portraits; erotica; fashion; advertising; medicine; journalism; beer: etc. have to do with photography?
