MY PHILOSOPHY

Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none.
Ben Franklin

Call me paranoid, but I think our nation is under attack by more than just Islamic jihadiis

• 9-11 attack
• China is building up its military and power-projection capabilities to the point where it will one day eclipse us.
• Chinese imports, bond-holding, U.S. currency reserves as well as Middle East oil and Dubai buying 20% of NASDAQ, gives them a firm hand on our economic engine;
• European nations are reluctant or absolutely obstinate about assisting with international security issues;
• The Euro and Canadian dollar are exchanging ahead of the U.S. dollar.
• Tainted foreign food threaten our food system and lead painted merchandise from China threaten our non-food items.

This looks like the scenario from Tom Clancy’s novel, “Executive Order” and “Debt of Honor.”
