More on aid to Lebanon

The more I think about our President sending aid to rebuild Lebanon the more angry I get. First, all spending bills originate in the House of Representatives. That is the Constitution and there is no equivocation. Bush has no spending power whatsoever. Second, there is no Constitutional justification for the Federal Government to give any taxpayer money to anyone. The only legitimate spending available to the government is for its own operation, Period. But, for just a minute pretend the government had the legal power to steal money from American taxpayers and give it away. Just pretend. How in the hell does our criminal leadership justify taking hard earned taxpayer dollars and giving them to Lebanon for rebuilding while our own Gulf Coast is still in shambles? New Orleans is totaled, the southeast coast of Texas is totaled, the southwest coast of Louisiana is totaled, the Mississippi gulf coast is totaled. These are American taxpayers whose entire existences were torn asunder by a storm they had no part in creating (I do admit the folks in the New Orleans area do keep electing inept thieves to run their business) that are left out in the cold while our criminal traitorous president dares to send $10.00 for every man, woman and child in the United States to rebuild Lebanon. Lebanon, where Hezbollah was allowed to live, arm, organize and start a war with Israel. Am I missing something here? Our President and all other politicians that support him are guilty of treason and conspiracy to commit treason in this matter.

Aid to Lebanon

Now and again I get the feeling I am living in the twilight zone. Let me get this straight: Hezbollah (living in Lebanon obviously with the blessing of the Lebanese people and government) attacks Israel. Israel responds (rather weakly) and busts up part of Lebanon. The United States send aid to rebuild Lebanon. I am confused to say the least. Which side are we on? We can't be on both, they are mutually exclusive. I think Israel would be willing to allow muslims to exist but the reciprocal is out. So, we have some choices to make. We can go home and keep our noses out of the area and let them settle it once and for all. We can pick Israel as an ally and destroy any that attack her. We can wipe out Israel and let the camel jockies take over what is now Israel and ruin it. Or, we can continue pretending these age old enemies will get along. The last is a disaster. They won't.
