They Want What We Have

                                          

I was recently watching a DVD of my favorite TV show from the early 80's called "Wiseguy." Some of you may remember it. It starred Ken Wahl as agent Vinnie Terranova (pictured above) for the Organized Crime Bureau who infiltrated, undercover, domestic and international crime syndicates and power crazed international drug and arms dealers and brought them down.
Who can forget such colorful characters as Ray Sharkey as mobster Sonny Steelgrave manipulating and strong arming his way to the top or Kevin Spacey as international arms and drug dealer Mel Profit whose income exceeded  the GNP of more than half the countries on earth. Even former senator Fred Thompson appeared in a few episodes. In re-watching these shows today I noticed they had a very patriotic and conservative lean to them  which is more than I can say for many shows today with the exception of NCIS.

 In one scene of an episode Vinnie confronts a rogue agent of the CIA, Roger Lococco played with excellent finesse by William Russ and in speaking why these smaller countries oppose us Roger says, "They want what we have only they dont want to get it by initiative. They want it by  insurrection."

That quote could be applied today too, even more so. These terrorist and Islamic countries that  portend to hate us do so because they are jealous of us and want what we have only instead of working for it and earning it like we did over many generations, they want it all now thru jihad . Obama is also part of the problem with his going over to the mid-east  countries on his apology tour and bashing us, calling us arrogant and dismissive to them and his redistribution of wealth thoughout the world and to people here all with there hands out saying, "gimme, gimme, gimme O annointed one."

What is even more dangerous is Obama has announced he intends to cut our nuclear arms by 80%. This at a time when other countries are building up and China will have more nukes than us now. Iran president Mamood Ahmadinejad has said he intends to wipe Isreal off the map and cripple the United States. With rogue countries like this mouthing off so recklessly, it is imperative we show strength and strong arm initiative and not cower like Obama is doing. If you want respect in the world you have to do it thru strength and military superiority and weaponry. Obama is leading us down a destructive suicide path of self defeat.

I have included a link to a listing of  characters and shows of Wiseguy for any fans out there and also  some you tube videos of Kevin Spacey as Mel Profit. Be sure to check them out :)
