The Middle is pretty quiet

It's been pretty quiet here in the middle for a bit. I don't really have much to say at the moment. I would however like to bring some attention to the recent news story that Iran has or is developing a "cruise missile" .

All the news stories I have read recently make it seem like this is some really big deal. This is the begining of the big confrontation!

No it's not. It is 1 country who just got technology we have had for 20 years. It's hard to believe that it has been 20 years since the first Gulf War. Some people seem to be holding onto that era a bit to much.

Me? Well yah, I am also holding on to that war a bit to long. It seems that I am not wired to kill people.

Perhaps more later.

The brass tacks.

Well I have let off on this blog for a while, but I think that enough is enough.

I will start by saying that I am a "Democrat". Which means that I voted for President Obama.

I will follow that up by saying that I am "Right to Choose". In particular in the first trimester. In the 2nd trimester, I am on the fence, and the 3rd trimester I am opposed. But in the end, I will go with the choice of the mother.

On the issue of gun control, I believe that every American has the right to own one(or 10). This is a liberty that was granted to us by the constitution.

When it comes to Government spending, I ask that it be responsible. Please don't spend more than we have available to spend.

Those are basic rules. I really don't ask for much.
