I drive a Toyota so I'm keeping my mouth shut. My phone is Japanese and my TV is also Asian. My stereo equipment is also.

It was Sen. Harry Reid (D), Democratic leader in the senate, who stated the uniforms should be burned. But, you go ahead and make it all about Fox.

Fox and Friends were whining about them as well, and Eric Bolling was whining
specifically about the "French" berets on The Five. I am aware of what Harry said as
well but the first whining I heard was on FOX SPEWS.

I seen a video clip of Romney saying there is nothing wrong with the Chinese made uniforms.

Nothing new here as most people would expect this of Romney.

So it is a nonpartisan issue, nonpolitical, but you still want to turn it into an opportunity for partisan Fox-bashing.

A few years agp. business acquaintences visited my Boston office at a time that I was quite busy. I asked them to go downtown Boston to buy gifts for theirfamilies and then I would join them for dinner.
They were back in a half hour...no bags. I asked "what happened.?" They responded, " Everything made in Taiwan."
America has forced businesses impacted by regulations to shop abroad....what about the money Obama left in several of 39 or 40 countries he and his wife enjoyed touring? What about the Ralph Lauren clothes Princess Michele wore in England? What about her $600 sneakers to serve the food pantry clientele? Where are Obama's clothes made....Does his mother in law pay rent at the White House? Obama donated over 40 million of our hard earned dollars to a South American country for oil exploration....will we have to commute to those places to get those jobs? What about all the illegal aliens Obama sanctioned...those jobs are made in America for the use of border crossers who also receive public assistance , education for themselves and their children and the best most expansive health care plan in the world....they show up in our hospitals and say...."no papers? and get treatment immediately while we wait for our names to be called.
The last three years have been socialism...socialism...socialism....giving away our dollars to other nations is one thing....but to allow the illegal border crossers from those nations to come here and pick up the cash in person is a disgrace....we have got to vote Obama and his princess out of office before we the laboring public are asked to support a global welfare program.

Here we go again....bringing up some one elses misdeeds to justify the current ones. No war is a good war and the case for wasted lives and money should never be used to offset what this country is facing today.

Obama has proved to all of us that his agenda is socialism..soialism..and more socialism...ltoday he on the networks preaching that "no successful business person did it by himself"....then, can we agree the egocentric President did not do the Bin Laden assassination by himself...our navy seals whom he crucified last year have a long history of heroic deeds..they were not trained by Obama....can we agree....this administration did not do it by themselves...using that dangerous mission to further their careers in on going press releases that look a lot like campaign ads is a disgrace....allowing the news network to be in the "situation room" while they made that decision is just as reprehensible. But of course VP Biden showed the press his secret "safety quarters" so what else are Obama and Biden wailling to trade for good press on their self acclaimed victories?"

Obama keeps talking about Bain...Obama never held a job in the private sector so how would he know about boardroom decisions....when in the Congress...he could not make decisions....he voted "present" over 100 times....we can see the effect of his inexperience.....

He left milli0ns of dollars in the countries he toured. Will we have to commute globally for those jobs he helped to create in foreign countries?

Fellow Americans....this is the big battle...let's save our country from the socialists and the terrorists that enter our country through its borders.....and that Obama welcomes.

Imagine we have to send high ranking officials to rescue one or two Americans who are straying onto foreign soil and over 35 million lawbreaking border crossers are on our public payroll...enjoying the good life...and since we don't know who they are...we don't know why they are here..terrorism comes to mind..that is besides the reach for money they steal from our public assistance programs.

Vote to save America. This is the most important election ever.

Be afraid. remember,,,the President whispered to a foreign dignitary...."this is my last election and after the election I will be able to do more?" What" Remember he has used Executive Power to ignore the Congress, created 40 czars to supercede the Congress. Be afraid. We are losing our Democracy.
