    We the People of the United States of America, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

    We spend 160 Billion dollars a year on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. We spend 70 Billion dollars a year on the budget for homeland security. I won’t even discuss how much we blow on the defense department. Just when did “provide for the common defense” start to override all of the other ideals expressed in the Constitution???

    Anyone else watch the travesty unfold in the Senate yesterday. U.N was over paid billions by our government. The Senate voted to not ask for the money back.
    Can you say “Double Talk” ? Most senator are quick to note we are close to 15 trillion dollars in debt NOW and must cut everything but are unwilling to recoop
    the over a Billion dollar over payment. Anyone else see jabber jawing here?

    I wonder how this government can leave all these skilled workers to starve while I am Absolutely certain that if I took a job at a 2nd or 3rd world country I alone could bring them 50 years forward in technology, Not to speak of the MILLIONS just like me who could do the same.

    Im talking B-2 spirit, F-117, smart bombs and radar technology’s, All the infrastructure and processes, The materials the methods, All the hows and whys.

    I know things that would pucker the governments butt, How can they not see a problem? I know I would never reveal what I know, But what about the MILLIONS of others like me?
