RECOURSE ...... is there NONE?

Is there NONE? Is all that we can do is sit quietly by and watch the country go to hell? And while it is going to hell, the leader of our world is out playing golf. I think it is extraordinary that few have come forth and mentioned his lack of leadership. Do we just not care anymore?

A General was killed and buried in Arlington Cemetery. I grant you, his life was not more valuable than any other lost in the war, but, out of respect for ALL people in the service, HE should have attended. He not only did not attend, he played golf. A travesty if there ever was one, and the press said little to nothing.

During that time, volumes and millions of words were produced about a young man being killed, by a policeman, including rioting and looting, mostly by opportunists who used it as an opportunity to commit ROBBERY in the name of a young man who was shot and killed. NOTHING was written about the looters, nothing about what all they got away with, nothing about all the damage they created. The usual cast appeared on this "stage." The Reverend Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, some even had the bold faced audacity to openly ask for donations and increase the amount in their "war chests."

My guess would be that there were some, who looted, filled their coffers, jewelry, clothes and food and then headed to their local welfare office to pick up their checks, or whatever it is they do now.

If he in industry, obama was in industry, his actions, or lack of actions, would cause his termination. I imagine that most other governments would  have a built in system that would cause his removal. In some countries, his "regime" would be overthrown and he would be exiled. Some, maybe even, well, we have seen what some other countries have done.

We furnish him with a fine home, excessive protection, unlimited travel, apparently unlimited vacation, perks, perks, perks ..... and what do we receive in return, he avoids all responsibility, and plays golf, vacations extensively, and plays golf ..... all at our expense.

Are we a great country, or what?   "What, me worry?"
