This is getting a little creepy.According to one
estimate, since last year the Department of Homeland Security has
stockpiled more than 1.6 billion bullets, mainly .40 caliber and 9mm.DHS
also purchased 2,717 Mine Resistant Armor Protected Vehicles (MRAP).
No, that statement is not from some late night comic trying to get
a cheap laugh from the audience. The person who said the border is secure is
the person responsible for making it so: DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano.
Government regulation is stifling America’s vibrant pharmaceutical
industry. A recent report by the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and
Technology estimates that it costs an average of $1.2 billion to win FDA
approval and bring a new drug to market. Given that biopharmaceuticals account
for roughly two percent of the economy, this is no small matter.
Muslims don’t want to be subject to follow American laws
A leader for the Texas branch of the Council on American Islamic
Relations has told a crowd at a rally for Islam that members of the faith
really shouldn’t be bound by American law. “If we are practicing Muslims, we
are above the law of the land,” said Mustafa Carroll, the executive director of
the Dallas-Fort Worth CAIR branch, a keynote speaker as the recent rally.
House Armed Services Committee Chairman Buck McKeon (R-Calif.)
today echoed the concerns of those who fear President Obama has shown a
willingness to break the military through repeated cuts and a low
prioritization in saving operational and maintenance funds over pet domestic
programs.
Bob Woodward called a senior White House official last week to
tell him that in a piece in that weekend’s Washington Post, he was going to
question President Barack Obama’s account of how sequestration came about – and
got a major-league brushback. The Obama aide “yelled at me for about a half
hour,” Woodward told us in an hour-long interview yesterday around the
Georgetown dining room table where so many generations of Washington’s powerful
have spilled their secrets.
By now, we all understand that there really is
no sequestration crisis. The alleged “cuts” are merely cuts in
proposed increases. Using D.C. math, that constitutes a spending cut, even
though nothing is actually cut.
It’s like when Obama claimed that he cut spending last year by $1
trillion even though spending has been steadily increasing for the past decade.
In 2010, Washington had projected that they would spend $5.6
trillion in 2020. Now, they’re projecting $5.1 trillion. And
there’s their “cut.” The so-called sequestration is really no different.
