Help Veterans and United States Citizens First, Not Foreign Kids.
Obama vows to act on his own and rewrite whatever immigration law he chooses. He's got a phone and pen and he 's not afraid to use them. Well Mr. President, what about veterans?
Where was your phone and pen when it came to light about the mistreatment of our veterans at VA hospitals? Did anyone get fired? Did any law get changed? Did you make any executive actions? Um....no. Apparently our veterans are not worthy of your executive decisions.
But immigration and helping illegal children come here seems to be a higher priority. Then you chide the Republican led House about not passing immigration reform. Here's a newsflash: There are hundreds of bills passed by The House that are sitting on Harry-do-nothing-Reid. The same Reid who claimed that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was a White guy. But getting back to immigration.
Why would Republicans pass a comprehensive bill on immigration, only to see it go down the tubes after it becomes law? Mr. President, you don't have a good track record on enforcing duly passed laws. Your own party passed a HUGE comprehensive health care reform bill. And you signed it into law. It had specific items, specific dates, specific times. But how did you enforce that bill? You changed things, crossed stuff out, ignored that, delayed this. Nobody on earth can possibly keep track of how many times you changed that law! So Republicans somehow get a bill to your desk and you sign it. What assurance do they have that you will follow it? Not much.
But instead of using your pen and phone on foreign children coming here illegally, how about using your phone and pen, and demanding justice, service, respect, and great, fast healthcare to our veterans? Somehow your pen just won't leave your pocket. And that's a shame.
Just a side not on The Ukraine. What happened? Where's the outrage and demanding of justice? Can you imagine that a passenger jet with almost 300 passengers on board was shot down,....and not a thing is being done about it? In fact, it's old news! American influence? American ideals? Forget it. We are watching the rest of the world sink into an abyss.
Go RVing and stay safe this summer!

Are your children thinking about joining the military?
If you have kids, and they are teenagers, chances are they may have been thinking about joining the military. They might see the news, or hear from a recruiter at school. College is expensive and the military can help with that. Also, it does give you a guaranteed job right out of high school. A decent paying at that, with what could be lots of training. If your child is 18, they can make their own decision. If they are under that, age 17, they will need your permission. Before saying yes or no, you might want to talk it over. Some very good tips for this is at: http://www.bubblews.com/news/4713541-should-your-child-join-the-military
There is no right or wrong answer. Each person is an individual.

Take care of veterans before illegals
The border is secure? Sure it is. That's why thousands of kids are streaming across. You wonder what some people in Washington are smoking. Just the tip of the ice berg. Reality will set in to various towns, states, and cities, as they deal with an influx of illegals wanting free services. Like we are doing enough for our own citizens, right?
Like veterans? HELLO! Before any illegals get any help, first in line should be our veterans. Shame on us. Shame on those in Washington who are the cause of problems, then rail that "others" won't vote for a solution.
Here's a thought: Stop causing problems and work on America first.
So these kids are traveling thousands of miles. Supposedly paying thousands of dollars. Where is this money coming from? I thought they were poor and down trodden? What is Mexico doing? Nothing. Obviously allowing these people to just travel right on through!
Our government is helpless at the moment. We are running around like a chicken with its head cut off. If it were not tragic, it would be funny. Well, it is funny. To Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, Syria,...
Some people say these illegal kids are fleeing oppression from gangs, drugs, violence, and the like. So they should be allowed to be here. And they go as far as saying it is our duty to help them.
Well, here's a thought. We have plenty of our own young people, living in squalor, infested with drugs, gangs and violence. They are packed into L.A., Detroit, New Orleans, Memphis, Philadelphia, Chicago, and more. How about if we ship them to France and have them ask for asylum?
We can't take care of the people we have now. How on earth are we expected to care for what will be hundreds of thousands of people?

United States Military is not weak, just woefully unreliable.
The President shamefully used the West Point graduation as a political propaganda tool. It was not a speech for the new army officers, but to his foreign policy critics. Shame on you Mr. President. Telling the cadets we are not weak, but stronger than we have ever been. Reality check! With "not weak," you forgot to add that we are idiotic, rudderless, sporadic, and woefully unreliable. We have no standing in the rest of the world, no matter how hard he tries to pull the wool over the cadets' eyes. Having the nerve to call Ukraine success? HELLO! What about Crimea? If he thinks that Iran, Syria, are successes, he is so far out of touch, no wonder people can't check emails. They don't know what they are doing.
Terrorism is not defeated. In fact, it's grown exponentially since Obama took office. You cannot keep repeating bin laden, over and over, and expect to get some more traction.
Then we still have The VA. Shameful report on Phoenix's VA hospital. And yet, nary a whimper from this administration. But Michelle can sure rail about fat kids, Holder rails against the injustice illegal aliens get, but nothing about our veterans.
And then to have the laughable audacity to talk about global warming...er...climate change as being the next big military operation.......and places like Sudan, Yemen, Nigeria, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, China, Russia, Syria, Egypt, Libya, .....et. al., just laugh.
No, we are not weak. Just woefully out of touch with what's going on the rest of the world.

Nobody takes responsibility for VA or anything else.
The current administration in The White House seems to love giving lip service. Quips like, "Mad as hell," and other nonsense, just roll off the tongues of those in charge of the bureaucracies that make up our government. Billions of dollars spent on things like healthcare.gov, failures, and other misdeeds. Nobody is fired, fined, charged, or sent to prison.
The Veterans Administration should be different, don't you think? It's a bipartisan issue. Helping veterans. The very people that gave their all so these people in high-paid positions could keep taking taxpayer money. And what do they get? More lip service. No action. Just words that ring hollow. Nobody in this administration has been fired due to mismanagement.
We think the VA has committed crimes. People need to be fired, charged, fined, and sent to prison. But will it happen? Of course not. We have Shinseki 'mad as hell,' but not doing anything. He's using the president's favorite ploy. Let's wait. And see. Hope it goes away. Just another fake scandal.
Ever get the feeling that we have a fake president? Isn't it funny that the attorney general, Eric Holder, keeps giving directives and sticking his nose in places like immigration? Telling schools they better not check immigration status...and being very vocal. But with the VA, he's mute. Let's wait and see, he says. No need to get worked up, right? While they let loose convicted criminals instead of deporting them, you know where their heads are at. It's certainly not on American citizens like veterans.
And that is a shame.
Will somebody have the guts in this administration to start firing people? No. Why? Because that would be an admission of a scandal. And we have no scandals, right? Just fake ones. The VA hospital scandal will just be another fake one, swept under the rug.
Unless the American people will finally not stand it and declare they have had enough.
