“Tragedy”–so that’s what they call situations today. Here we are Little Red Riding Hood and the rest of the world is the Big Bad Wolf. We are the people and yet we are so far removed from what is really going on out there in our great nation today.

Let’s pose the question to our government officials in Washington. Is there something else that we have not been told about the events leading up to this destruction of our nation’s confidence?

This is not a tragedy; this is outright neglect. How many more bases are going to be shut down because the government has labeled them “not strategically located”? How many more cutbacks will be made to the defense of this country at the expense of protecting the people?
