What If?
What if we were to never recognize a war declared on the United States by a group of individuals that seek to destroy the very freedoms that we hold dear?
What if the suicide attacks that we have seen in Israel for the last twenty plus years were perpetrated on the streets of your town?
What if the economic consequences of another domestic terrorist arrack were to be realized on a regular basis bringing about a real depression?
What if, in the rush to make nice with our enemies, our actions were misconstrued as a sign of weakness?
What if Islamo-Fascists were allowed to infiltrate our borders, emboldened by the retreat of American Troops from a war and a theater that has seen total domination and real success?
What if those in political power continue to decide that spending/wasting trillions of dollars is more important than concentrating on finishing the mission in the War on Terror?
What if we allow more money to be spent by our government to save an endangered rat/mouse in San Francisco than will be spent to create a safer world?
What if the Congress actually allowed the American people to review the "Porkulus" Bill, as they promised, as opposed to ramming it through so that Nancy Pelosi can go on her trip to Europe?
What if the Republican Party continued to stand up for conservative values instead of always playing nice with the Democrats?
What if the Republicans were to remove Sen. Specter, Sen. Collins, and Sen. Snowe from the Republican Caucus?
What if a group of people that support a man that received only 19,285 votes nationally (less than Nader, Keyes, Baldwin, Barr, and McKinney) learned that they should stop being a fly in the ointment?
What if we were to actually have elected a conservative to the White House and avoided the Stimulus Bill completely?
What if the mainstream media were to end their infatuation with Pres. Obama?
What if people stopped looking for a handout and took personal responsibility for their actions or inactions?
What if our nation is in danger from our "Blame American First" mentality?
What if the same attention was paid to the nominees to Obama's Cabinet and their tax problems as has been paid in the past to trumped up charges against people like Trent Lott?
What if people were to realize that the drop in the bucket that is spent in the War on Terror is far less than the economic and infrastructure impact of another terrorist attack?
What if the Democratic push for the expansion of government did not have the direct consequence of putting our children and grandchildren in debt?
Finally, what if the United States could speak with one voice so that our enemies would understand, in no uncertain terms, that there are consequences for the bombings of the Khobar Towers, the USS Cole, 9/11, and the continued attacks on our troops?
