Washington is not in gridlock; it is paralyzed and dangerous.
Yesterday, there was a threat against the Los Angeles Unified School District. The conclusion, thank God, is that it was a hoax. Right off the bat, the Monday afternoon quarterbacks lashed out against the school superintendent for closing the schools and keeping 640,000 students and 100,000 employees home. Imagine what they'd have to say if he'd kept the schools open and there had been an attack.
So, why did he close the schools? From all appearances, the threat was a hoax. The FBI and LAPD suggested it was a hoax, but he closed the schools anyway. And herein lies my point: He was evidently afraid that the government wasn't reliable. He was afraid that they just might be wrong about it being a hoax... How often has Obama been wrong? What action has Congress taken on the issue?
Why should anybody in the country trust Washington?
Indeed, yesterday afternoon the newswires came out with the revelation that a new branch of ISIS is now activating in Afghanistan. It is carving out territory and challenging the Taliban. What forces we have left on the ground there are in gravely increased danger. Obama is hellbent on increasing the danger to all of us at home by bringing in unvetted Syrian refugees, totally against the will of the American people; Congress doesn't seem to be inclined to do anything about it.
In fact, what has Congress done about ANYTHING over the last seven years?
Global terrorism and World War III are bombs waiting to go off and the match has actually already been lit. But Obama is in a full campaign-mode to get his global warming agenda approved, while Congress is shaking in its boots at the prospect of a Trump presidency.
They are all clueless.
We have to clean house in Washington, and I simply don't think we can wait until January of 2017 to get it done.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
