The Twenties in Colour

The Archive Albert Kahn covered the development of the Middle East after the First World War, this was one of the best documentaries on the region I have ever seen, this is what the BBC should be doing with the tax payers money, not and I repeat not reality shows!! More like this BBC.

The Art of Political Dirt

The political dirt is being thrown but in a very subtle away, has Obama something to hide ?, it does not matter if not, the question has been placed out there in cyberspace, is the Clinton machine acting like Richard Nixon, does not matter if they are, its the Clinton's they have to prove their not; its out there in cyber land. The question why, who benefits, and who benefits in a tricky way. No Democrats you cant blame Karl Rove he is a Republican. The question has to be asked did Obama Campaign decided to be negative in a tricky way, plant a story as to make the Clinton's look bad, to risky, if your over 30 and a candidate for Sheriff or President there is a chance of some dirt so don't see Obama doing it, the Clinton's are they really that worried about Obama in Iowa, a good chance, so who does the arrow lead to, well in less they can proof a negative the Clinton Campaign they have track record, the Clinton Women. I hope the Democratic voters show their dislike of this tactic and support Obama in Iowa.

Clinton and Nixon

Fox News: Reports that Robert Novak stands by his story that the Clinton Campaign has dirt on Senator Obama but wont use it, this argument started on Saturday between Clinton and Obama, both want to come out ahead on this story. Today Novak has gone further, he has compared the Clinton Campaign to Richard Nixon. Clinton's and Nixon different side of the same coin, just Nixon was more clever when it came Foreign Policy.

Democrats on Iran

Robert Novak: Interesting article by Novak on the problem of Iran and its effect on the Democratic race. The American Left does not want a war with Iran, but the American left is not the the whole country. Both Obama and Clinton know that in the general election they can not be seen as weak on national security.

Iowa Election Race

USA Today: Interesting article on what Democratic Voters want, its simple, they want a winner. If the polls are right that has to be Obama.

Iraq News

New York Times: Even the Liberal NYT sees good news coming out of Iraq, the Times writes the following, " ....violence had diminished significantly since the United States reinforced troop levels in Iraq and adopted a new counterinsurgency strategy. " Thus the New York Times has seen the light, its about time the Democratic Leaders in Congress stop the pandering and acted as leaders in the United States Congress.
