"Fools and Idiots!"

Anyone who has followed my blog knows I'm a boxing fan. I enjoy a good fight, and I've seen plenty of them. From the time I was a young boy watching the "Friday Night Fights" with my Dad, to the present, I've done my best not to miss any of the "big fights". I've watched all of the Heavyweight Champions from Rocky Marciano up to the fragmenting of the title when Lennox Lewis ended his career. Every champion was unique in style and attitude. Rocky was quiet and business-like, Floyd Patterson was almost shy, with great skill and speed; of course Ali was the ultimate showman, quick-witted and masterful in the ring. One of the most misunderstood champions was Larry Holmes, a fighter of great skill, with arguably the best left jab the heavyweight division ever had. Larry had the unfortunate circumstance of following Ali; a pretty tough act to follow. He was sometimes described as difficult to interview and not as colorful as his predecessor. What some folks don't realize is that Larry was a compassionate champion. I remember his fight against Marvis Frazier, son of Joe Frazier. Larry was a much better fighter than poor Marvis; Larry was beating Marvis to a pulp, and he wasn't enjoying it; he looked at the referee and said "Do you want me to kill him?"; in real concern for the over-matched opponent. Finally, Larry did the only thing he could do; he knocked out the helpless Marvis. I had new respect for Larry after that fight. The best thing he could do was use all his skills to end the contest; it was best for him and his foe.

Bin Laden is dead; we are all happy about that. America did the right thing, and a criminal murderer got his just desserts! Now we are faced with what to do next. Do we take it easy and pull back a little, or do we put on additional pressure to let the enemy know we still have great resolve in our mission?

Barney Frank thinks we should cut our defense spending by 200 billion dollars. Personally, I think Barney is an IDIOT! This is typical weak leftist garbage. If Frank wants to trim the budget, let's get rid of the funding for "La Raza", public radio or Planned Parenthood. The idea of cutting defense spending is ridiculous. We have the finest and bravest military in the world, and our duty is to make sure they are properly funded. Barney believes that the terrorists are not an immediate threat to the American people; unlike the old Soviet Union. I guess Barney doesn't remember 9-11 as well as the rest of us.

America, we need to wake up! Barney Frank and the parade of fools that share his beliefs must be given a public "smack-down" from the voters. These types of soft bellied liberals will send us to "Hell in a hand basket", if we allow them to continue on this road to weakness. AMERICA IS FREE BECAUSE AMERICA IS STRONG! IF WE CHOOSE TO WEAKEN OURSELVES, THEN EXPECT MORE ATTACKS OF GREATER DESTRUCTION! GO AWAY BARNEY, YOU ARE A FOOL!
