We are always threatened by something. If you don’t eat right you are
threatened by a heart attack. If you don’t protect your computer you are threatened by hackers. If you don’t protect your home you will probably get robed. If you don’t protect yourself you will probably have way too many kids too. Our lives center around protecting ourselves. What about protecting our country, our shores? Are we even protected?
Recently all our eyes were on North Korea as their new little young Dictator was taunting the United States with threats of nuclear missile attacks. Former President Regan would have just known what to do about that. He said on March 23, 1983 to the American people, “I am directing a comprehensive and intensive effort to define a long term research and development program to begin to achieve our ultimate goal of eliminating the threat opposed by strategic nuclear missiles.” Ok folks where is the results of this long term effort supposedly started 30 years ago?
Everyone made fun of Regan and called it his crazy Star Wars Defense Plan like as if he just watched too many of those movies and said we ought to do that too. Ronald Regan was totally right when he said he wanted a ballistic missiles defense system in the event of some comprehensive attack. Congress blocked any money to go towards financing the development of a system so now we have nothing.

The defense system we gave them is even harder to do since it is shooting down bombs within seconds rather than minutes which would have been the system Ronald Regan wanted to develop from space. The space system would have been able to shoot everything down that was even a long range missile. We could have taken out the Syrian Dictator too who needs to be taught a good lesson now. This Hitler like twerp thinks he can kill his own citizens with lethal gas and get away with it.

Obama needs to put Ronald Regan’s ideas back on paper and direct some of our billions of dollars to be spent on defending America in the air in space or on shorter range missiles. So what if it is expensive. Our cities are worth everything to us and we love our European countries too. We must do everything in our power to always have the most sophisticated weapons systems in place to defend us first . We are the crazy ones if we don’t defend ourselves.
