Post 5

Greetings!  This is a short post, as I have a horrible headache.  I received my second anthrax vaccination today.  Coincidence?  Maybe not. 

Tuesday we had a guest speaker, Dr. Krepinevich.  One thing he mentioned that really made me think:  our downfall is the economy.  I have been watching the news, but what he said next really made me think.  After we spend money on all the social programs, unions, benefits, etc. how much money will be left for our defense?  How much is left for the military?  American socieity is all about entitlements:  not earning things byt give me things. These entitlements are killing us, literrally.
