Many have posted about the causalities that would have occurred had we not dropped the Bomb and they are all correct; There is another factor that no one here has considered. After the war ended and the Allies occupied Japan there were still over 1 million Japanese deaths due to STARVATION - and this was despite the best efforts of the combined Merchant Marine of the US, Britain, France and the Netherlands supplying the Japanese with food. Imagine the conditions in Japan if we had not dropped the Bomb and had proceeded with the plans for a naval invasion of the Home Islands. Adm. John S. McCain's battle group contained 18 major aircraft carries and were tasked with destroying the (intact) Japanese rail network...(cont).

Democrats held the Keys to the Kingdom after Obama's first election and they did NOTHING on Immigration Reform......no one even tried. They had ObamaCare all cued-up, Cap-n-Trade and Stimulus were ready to go before he even took office..........why not Immigration? It's because solving the Immigration 'problem' doesn't serve the Democratic Party......and why should they when 2/3'rds of Hispanics vote Democrat no matter how badly they're ignored........no different than Blacks getting hammered by unemployment despite voting 95%+ for the Dems. Dems create and/or utilize crisis to forward their agenda......just like Sandy Hook. Who needs Big Government when everything is running smoothly?

South Korea should mobilize and send it's forces toward the DMZ forcing the 4 NORK Corps that are busy planting this year's crop to leave the rice paddies and go back to their barracks (the Army is responsible for feeding themselves).....then watch as they starve to death this year.

Always enjoyed Anne's sharp and witty responses to the Leftist....my best to her and her family.

He who lives by the Crisis shall die by the Crisis.

We've got a lot more cars too..........now-despite the fact that there are more guns than cars in the United States why on Earth do you suspect that there are more deaths caused by automobiles than there are with guns? BTW- 'well regulated' doesn't mean to be dictated by rules like the Banking or Financial industries.......it means to be disciplined, practiced and trained......and since it is to act as a counterbalance to the power of the Federal government it can hardly be dictated to by the same.

The EU gurus really screwed the pooch on this one....they've broken trust with depositors and they won't be getting it back in our lifetimes.....and once the cat's out of the bag it's very difficult to get it back in there. Even now there are runs on the bank no different than in 'It's A Wonderful Life---'except that the movie had a warm & fuzzy ending..........Cyprus ain't gonna turn out that way. Dominoes comes to mind.....and not the pizza.

Yeah, that's a no-brainer there....but Liberals will just whistle past the graveyard (literally) on this one....close their eyes and ignore reality....for if they dared to even acknowledge this abomination then they would be morally compelled to do something about it.....which would mean opening the door to the possibility that they could be wrong....and that's they real 'horror' for them. As Dante wrote in 'The Inferno' - "The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who choose to remain neutral in the battle between Good and Evil."

Marriage is based in religion...religion is based in God.....you seem to be emotionally invested if fighting for and against something at the same time.....you want 'marriage' for Homosexuals but deny the existence of God. Tell me-exactly what 'rights' do you think that homosexuals are being denied in the first place? All men in this country have the exact same limitations on whom they may marry as any other men.....same goes for women.....that's as equal as it gets.

United Nations Security Council Resolution 1441.....funny that the author would leave that out.

Some things really are said best with satire......Bravo.
