"BOMBS AWAY" Iran, Nukes And The World
We all know Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sounds crazy at times, but is he really crazy like a fox? Seems our political backbiting here in the US, the weak EU and the incompetent UN have created a perfect storm for Iran to finally obtain nukes.
An article in the NY Posts, written Amir Taheri titled ”BOMBS AWAY WHY THE US POLICY ISN'T WORKING - AND IRAN WILL GET NUCLEAR WEAPONS", paints a grim, but logical scenario leading up to Iran finally obtaining nuclear weapons. This of course assumes Israel does not attack them first. Well, it looks as if the future could get very interesting.
Democrat's, Do As We Say, Not As We Do Mentality
President Bush's recent trip to Israel and his comments about "Appeasement" has stirred a lot of buzz. I think his comments were right on target and what I find irresponsible is the nut case we have as "Speaker of the House" and her ever so stupid side kick, Harry "Clue Less, Taxes are Voluntary" Reid.
The following two paragraphs were taken from a New Your Times article discussing the Presidents comments;
- The comments created an angry tussle back home, as Democrats accused Mr. Bush of breaching protocol by playing partisan politics overseas.
- On Thursday, other Democrats leapt to the Illinois senator’s defense. Senator Harry Reid of Nevada, the Democratic leader, called Mr. Bush’s remarks “reckless and irresponsible.” Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California said Mr. Bush had behaved in a manner “beneath the dignity of the office of president.” Representative Rahm Emanuel of Illinois, chairman of the House Democratic caucus, accused Mr. Bush of violating the unwritten rule against playing politics overseas.
Now when you read these, the Dems are making some nasty accusations. However, they seem to have no problem "playing politics overseas" and "breaching protocol". Do you remember Nancy Pelosi's visit to Syria? "The controversial meeting was a clear defiance of the White House Middle East policy." [Fox News]
Now does this seem like some BS, or what?
I'm Shocked! Who Really Thinks This?
I was shocked to hear some of the comments from an Obama's foreign policy adviser. After all, she said it was off the record... Now Samantha Power is gone for probably stating some of the only facts in the whole campaign. Was what she said that far out there? I would bet there are a lot of people who think of Hillary Clinton as a "monster". In a News Max article Power is quoted as saying. "She is a monster, too _ that is off the record _ she is stooping to anything." Now excuse me for being blunt here, but that sounds pretty much like Clinton Politics as usual. What do you think?
