Senator candidly speaks out

Senator Chris Dodd (D) Connecticut was a guest on the syndicated talk show "Imus in the morning" on Thursday the 6th of March.

Mr. Dodd rated the top threats to America:

1> North Korea
2> Terrorism
3> American failing economy
4> Iraq

I had the red flag flying over my head when I realized Mr. Dodd had put our nations economy before Iraq as a looming national threat.

Keep in mind that the upper levels of our government are privileged to more information than the common citizen will ever be privy to.

...And it's for that very same reason why Americans have been so "dumbed down" for so many decades...They withold vital information from the very public that they're sworn to serve so that the the nation "by the People, for the People" can rule in the name of the People, but without their input for decisions.

Let's rank the same threats...but this time, in order of ease of resolution...

1) Iraq
2) American failing economy
3) North Korea
4) Terrorism

Still taking care of the threats, just chipping away at the workload...
