Miscellaneous Issues

Former President Bill Clinton has joined former President Jimmy Carter to explain the resistance to President Obama's agenda. He agrees that part of the problem is the American public who voted Obama into office is now racist but he went back to an old Clinton tried and true explanation, the same reason he had "sexual relations" with Monica Lewinsky's mouth, the "vast right-wing conspiracy." Do all these democrats forget the last eight years and the abuse and resistance President Bush faced throughout his presidency? I am sure they can explain that as just a ground swell of public opinion against everything he did while opposition to a democratic policy must be a conspiracy.

The Middle East continues to be the most volatile place on the globe and with the "re-election" of Iranian leader Mahmoud Ahmadinejad it will continue to be unstable. Here is my take on Iran's nuclear program. Ahmadinejad has made it abundantly clear that he wants to eliminate Israel but if he is to go it alone and launch nuclear missiles into Tel Aviv or some other Israeli city the wrath of the world will come down upon Iran and even with the help of neighboring Muslim states they will face extremely tough times or even world military actions. But, by testing the long range missiles and keeping the world discreetly aware of his nuclear capabilities he hopes to provoke Israel to make the first move. Israel is unwilling to accept a nuclear Iran. They cannot afford to wait until Iran makes the first move, the results could be devastating. So they will eventually launch a preemptive strike of Iran's nuclear facilities which will give Iran permission do launch a missile into Israel and the world will be split on how to react and with this indecisiveness nothing will be done. Ahmadinejad is betting his psychotic ass on it.

The President took time off from his busy schedule to go Copenhagen and make a last minute pitch to get the Olympic Games in Chicago in 2016. This is nothing more than an attempt to put another feather in his cap and claim he brought the Olympics to the U.S.A. I feel confident that he already knows the results and is making the trip for a photo op. Even the Today Show thought this sounded a little fishy. Merdith Vierra made the comment that "Don't you think they already made their decision". If we do not get the Olympics I will retract this statement.

Sen. John Kerry has joined with Sen. Barbara Boxer on a new Climate Bill that will help curb the global warming the globe used to experience. I think this goes under the category of "You can put lipstick on a pig and its still a pig." First, unilateral global warming initiatives by the U.S. will produce minimal if any change. Second, let's get a true consensus that man made global warming is real. The list of skeptics is rising much faster than the surface temperature of the earth. I have done my research and I am convinced there is nothing to it. All the other nations of the G20 Summit are strongly pushing the U.S. to get on the ball and pass some legislation but any legislation can only weaken the U.S. economy and allow these other nations a competitive advantage. Meanwhile the man behind one of the largest carbon footprints, Al Gore, has backed a company and received over half a billion dollars of the government money to makes hybrid sports cars. This global warming gig has "truth"fully been very profitable for Al Gore and "inconvenient" for the American tax payers.
