More on Iran Part Two

An excellent article by Michael Barone on RealClearPolitics, Turning Toward Iran, Barone gets to the main point with the following, ' The critics ignore the fact that Iran has been making war against us for 27 years, since they violated the most fundamental law of diplomacy by taking our diplomats hostage. The critics seem more interested in seeing Bush lose than in seeing the United States win. Fortunately Bush still wants to prevail. ' The American Media Elite are still fighting the 2000 Election, they could never really get Reagan, the Great Communicator had a bond with the American people, Bush is not a great communicator but he can still be like the Gipper a great President.

More on Iran

Views sees the American left has started to fear that President George W. Bush is about to start a War with Iran, after his warning about their actions in Iraq. Well he has two years to do something about Iran, a nuclear armed Iran is a threat to the West and more important to the American Economy. I ask a reader to think of himself or herself as Prime Minister of Israel, would you allow Iran to became a Nuclear Power, after its leader has stated that he would like to remove Israel from the Middle East. The left in American Politics hate President George W. Bush so much they cant smell the coffee, we cant afford for them to be wrong as they where wrong during the Cold War. Reagan was right and the Liberal Elite of the Media had the wrong views at the wrong time, thank God for the Gipper. If the UN route does not work and they will not come to the table then action must be taken, better early rather than to late. The above is in response to an article in the L.A. Times, the paper is left wing but the article shows how out of touch they really are in LA.

Senate and Iraq

The Democrats are now finding how much a problem it can be to be in the majority but not enough to have Sixty Votes, its seems that the Republicans might stop a vote that opposes a surge in Iraq in less they can have their resolutions voted on.


Here are some interesting articles on the Subject:


USA Today
on if the resolution will get passed.


Washington Post
on the political cost of the War to the Republicans. The Washington Post states the following on the cumbersome route for the Resolution, ' Should resolution supporters clear their first obstacle, the Senate will move to an anticipated long series of votes on amendments. The big ones to watch include a Republican call for the immediate withdrawal of all troops, intended to put Democrats on the spot, and attempts by antiwar Democrats to strike certain provisions, including one opposing the termination of funding for troops in the field. ' It is a matter of cat and mouse, those running to the left of Hillary Clinton will call for a quick removal of troops, those that want to stand a chance in hell of winning the big prize in 2008 will have to be careful, one wrong move and you could find yourself another John Kerry, Votes count.
