I was in the Azores last month and flew in to Lajes field. It is a ghost town. I had heard the Chinese were interested and had hoped it was a false rumor. If we abandon that base the Chinese will most likely make a move for it.
The Republicans have no intentions of repealing this fiasco. They love the control it gives them just as much as the Democrats do. That is why we are seeing the bill to allow you to keep your old policy if you want going through the house. That is why the republican establishment is attacking the TEA Partiers, who want it repealed.

Nobody in their right mind wants to have the house of cards that is the US economy come crashing down on their heads. Nobody can fix what is coming at us so perhaps the best of the best is sitting this one out. When the economy collapses on the next President, do you think the media will place the blame on Obama?
