A Wise Quote!

A wise quote in which the government did not heed too.

"In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist."
Dwight D.Eisenhower

This is what Bush did not watch out for when he got us into two wars. Was it worth it? No, it was not. The loss of lives and the amount of debt we got into did not equal the cost of getting Saddam Hussein. On the other hand Obama refocused the war on what it should have been focused on and got Bin Laden.

Another quote from Dwight D. Eisenhower:

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies in the final sense a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

This is why I am so adamant on Obama. He heeded the warning of Eisenhower. 

Obama is focused on helping the poor and middle class, phasing us out of the wars, and ensuring that we are clothed and fed.
