Sunday Morning on Fox turned into open warfare during the discussion period this morning. Williams really got into it with Kristol and Hume. Guess what went on last week was just to outrageous to be handled calmly the panel.

What you have to do is pay no attention to what Obama says. Look only at what he does. As a thought piece and a way to think about how we live and what is key to living at various levels, I have used Maslow's hierarchy of needs. You must have the lower levels in place before you can achieve the upper levels. What the Kenyan is trying to do is ratchet us all down to the fundamental levels that he, and only he, will control. It's also called slavery. In full disclosure I should say I never bought into more than 98% of Maslow's ideas because he failed to include beer and Rock'n Roll.

So far, only conservatives seem to notice that all his statements come with an expiration date or contradict themselves outright. Surely there must be some honest Democrats, but are the few of them on vacation? Or have they forgotten their hearing aids, or glasses, or how to read? Maybe they really think of themselves as poor and downtrodded, (except the Follywood folks who think they own the earth and stars as well, while the rest of us just look at that whole zoo, and see trash that needs to be emptied.....i.e..Sheryl Crow, Alex Baldwin, Jane Fonda no matter what she says, Ted Turner, Susan Sarandon and that idiot Tim she lives with, etc etc.)

Wiki says we have this number of Military posted around the world now: en.wikipedia.org The military of the United States is deployed in more than 150 [1]countries around the world, with more than 369,000 of its 1,379,551[2] active-duty troops serving outside the United States and its territories. Many are located on installations opened during the Cold War, in which the US government in the aftermath of World War II thought it needed troops around the globe to counter the Soviet Union, and many countries have less than 100 deployed US troops. Since 2001, the US has deployed troops as part of the War on Terror. U.S. troops are fighting in several countries, including Afghanistan and Iraq. Others are deployed as part of several peacekeeping missions. The following are countries, listed by region, in which U.S. troops are deployed. Many of the numbers are based on Department of Defense statistics from June 2005.[3] Omitted are some countries to which fewer than 100 U.S. troops are deployed.
