Young lashes out at Congress over missile defense
KTUU News by Jason Lamb
ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- Rep. Don Young took his colleagues to task Tuesday for proposed cuts to the Missile Defense Agency at the same time North Korea appears to be preparing to test launch a long-range missile that could strike Alaska.

First thing, His Presidency's job is to protect and defend US soil and not develop ties with Russia.

Well, this is becoming the "generated crisis" that Biden had talked about "testing the mettle" of Obama. Why is Obama trying to cut, scrap and otherwise roll back our missile defense. Especially when very soon Evil Korea will have the ability to send a nuke to California or Alaska or Hawai'i?

This whole thing stinks of FDR. President Roosevelt had an economic crisis on his hands and nothing on the horizon (no hope I guess) of it ending. He puts radar in Hawai'i, but nobody trusts it and he puts the majority of the Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor, the Japanese did not pass up the opportunity.

Obama thinks he needs a real crisis so that he can get America out of its funk. Will he implement a full Missile Defense System? Will Evil Korea pass up an opportunity to send a nuke to US soil knowing the President would probably not retaliate? Perhaps Pearl Harbor II? Perhaps Obama is like FDR and "hopes" for things to pick up or an opportunity to build his legacy...at the expense of American lives. Obama may have learned from history and thinks that a national tragedy and serious war will get him off the hook for the economy.
