MY government is going to buy ammunition, at what cost, to fund a resistance that, when it assumes power will be just like the Muslim government in Egypt?!? Thank you defense industry lobby! Posted by: Spitting into the Wind | May 1, 2013, 8:29 am 8:29 am It was Obama's idea to arm the rebels in Egypt, which brought the Muslim Brotherhood to power. Obama also intervened illegally in Libya, basically handing cities like Benghazi over to terrorists who eventually murdered Ambassador Stevens on the anniversary of 9/11. We had no national interests in Libya and have no national interests in Syra. IT'S NOT OUR PROBLEM. We have no dog in this fight.

Interesting that at the same time he drives to disarm honest American citizens he is weighing the idea (sorry guys, he's already done it) of supplying "assault" weapons to citizens of another country.
