    Supporting Mideast democracies
    I realize with the U.S. economy’s sorry condition, the president and Congress should take the opportunity to re-examine all U.S. spending and definitely re-examine aid to every country to which we now send our hard earned money.  I am not suggesting I know everything or even the right thing for all the different situations and scenarios involving our foreign aid.
