china will steal them too

just like they stole everything else and jeopardized our national security, we are on the same path as England after ww2 NATO has not been able to win in a poor 3rd world country afghanistan because of Chinese weapons maybe that will change with the surge but it is doubtful, we will watch the Chinese rise and eventually defeat us to take the number one spot and we only made them rich in the process, in the good old days we didn't do buisness with commies but our government knew better. More rocket scientist takesan educated workforce something we don't have,only teenage mothers and drunk and drug addicts in the younger generation we have to accept our decline.China has beat us in their proxy wars in Korea and Vietnam and now they will beat us in military and space race, Nixon made the worst

move by opening up the commies to steal everything from the west.

'Rocket Scientists' are the last thing this government needs

What we need are more people dedicated to the success of this country instead of their own pocket book or egos.

More "Horse Sense" instead of the theories and statistics that are killing this country's ability to compete in the world market. The problem is that this type of person is smart enough to stay out of politics due to the overwhelming negative attacks from the media and in turn the public. Add to the fact that we, the voting public, keep voting for the same sorry people over and over and over. We are like sheep so we get what e get, go look in a mirror.

Happy New Year! Expect more of the same and little or no change.
