Big Government Means Big Screw Ups

When a soldier, sailor, or Marine dies in service of their country, we are grateful and humbled by their sacrifice.  If they are buried in Arlington National Cemetery we expect their graves will be respected and certainly the remains of the brave souls accounted for by the government that runs the cemetery.  The management of Arlington, just like the way graves are laid in a perfect line, should be done with military precision.


But none of the above seems to be the case.


Arlington National Cemetery cannot account for about four million dollars of their financing for the last several years.  They cannot account for over 40 thousand bodies that died for our freedom.  They are a disgrace to the memory of those who lie there so that we may be free.

This is what happens when government runs things.  This is government out of control.  Democrats love big government, but big government is a failure more times than it succeeds. I am not claiming that something untoward occurred at Arlington--if it were run by someone directly involved with the present administration, I would put money on corruption at the helm, but even if there was nothing illegal that was involved with the loss of the money and the bodies, there is that recurring feeling of government incompetence that gnaws at me.


I know that there will be more to follow on this story, so stay tuned, and avoid the liberal media.  They will rot your brain with cover ups and lies.


Finally, and on another note, if you are interested in terrorism and suspense, I have provided 2 links (below) for a hard copy (soft cover) edition and an eBook edition of my latest novel, Jihad Joe.  It's a story about Zed Nill, a New York based reporter, taken hostage by Islamic terrorists.  He must escape, or be beheaded the following day . . . the clock is ticking.
