Here We Go Again
As we move closer to a "deal" with Iran that will effectively handcuff efforts
to curb their acquisition of nuclear weapons long-term in exchange for a small
short-term delay, news from North Korea that they're reconstructing an old
missile launch site for use with larger weapons can't come at a worse
time. It leads me to beg the question,
once again, what are we doing in DC? Our
policy, to date, has been to let these countries run rough-shot over us while
we sit largely silent. Remember when
China hacked into our computer systems and we did nothing? How about Russia's flight over Guam on the
night of President Obama's State of the State Address? I said it back in April and I'll say it again
today, I certainly miss the days of Ronald Reagan where the world thought twice
before threatening the United States.
Remembering Reagan
Speaking of remembering Ronald Reagan, as we listen to
what's going on in North Korea and Iran, it's a really good idea to take a
moment to learn from our mistakes. What
mistakes? After the Benghazi incident,
Michael Reagan penned this article detailing the very different reactions of
Presidents Reagan and Obama to issues in Libya.
Reagan writes the story of a conversation between his father and
Chief-of-Staff Ed Meese where Meese asked, "What should our men do if they're
fired on?" "Ed, fire back," replied
President Reagan. It's an anecdotal
story that highlights the Reagan administration's tough stance on countries
that hate us. Reagan knew what many
before him knew, namely that America comes first. It's not clear that's the prevailing practice
in Washington these days. |

A Hannity Reminder: Perspective Is Important
Just one day removed from President Obama's re-election, Sean offered this
moving reminder that perspective is an important part of life. Though the day-to-day can get crazy and our
future very much unclear, perspective is what keeps us all fighting on. Here's a little of what Sean had to say:
"I know because I spoke to a lot of people who
are upset," began Hannity, "The numbers show that we're a divided nation,
almost split right down the middle, but it takes grit, determination and
resolve to look inward to see what you can do differently or better." Hannity
continued, "You can't lose an election like yesterday and not be concerned but
that's not panic, this is a moment of reflection and the reality is that
America is changing." Sean spent the first hour breaking down the numbers and
trying to explain how President Obama won. In the end, he used the analogy,
"There are some parents who are very permissive, allowing their kids to watch
all the TV they want and there is a certain appeal to that parent who'll give
you everything you want and there's a certain lack of hipness from the parent
who says you need to eat your broccoli or you need to reform Medicare."
"America is not t he center-right country that it once was," concluded Hannity,
"There was a moment in time when Winston Churchill, who was viewed as a bit of
a nut but eventually England turned to him in their moment of need so we need
to recognize the ebb and flow of the political tides and we should all have a
little perspective." In the end we're ready to fight on.
Today's "Hot Topic" From the Hannity Forums:
Next November 4th - Posted by George Walton
Poll question: Agree or Disagree
Next November 4th, consider carefully those candidates who are best
qualified to defund, and repeal ObamaCare, and vote accordingly. And
perhaps as a bonus, the necessary votes to impeach, convict, and remove
from office will be there as well.
