Iran Redux

Since HCR will pass on Sunday its time to go back to the issue that will make Obama the next Jimmy Carter, that is Iran.



The New York Times: Reports on the failure of the Obama Administration to get agreement from China and Russia for tough UN sanctions on Iran. The NYT writes the following, " Now the administration is discovering what President George W. Bush discovered: winning each successive round of sanctions against Iran is harder and harder,..." Thus the year of appeasing by Obama has gotten the USA a slap in the face by Iran, Russia and China. The one problem that President Obama does not get is the fact that he can push House Democrats to pass HCR but Iran, China and Russia can tell him to get lost, they see a weak leader, lets look at recent events, while Secretary Clinton is told to get lost by Russia in Moscow over its economic links with Iran the Obama White House does not react, but it will attack Israel an alley in the Middle East over its right to build houses in its own country. Thus as stated if President Obama fails to get tough sanctions on Iran the Government of Israel will have no choice but to attack Iran, the Government of Israel should wait in till the end of October, just a few days before the Mid Term Congressional Elections in USA, an attack on Iran by Israel would place Obama in a tight spot, he might want to be critical of Israel but he wont be allowed to be by the Election process, he does not want to be on the same page as Iran and attacking any Israeli action, the Democrats would be swept aside in both the House and Senate should Obama attack Israel before the Mid Term Congressional Elections. President Obama has one major flaw, he thinks if he says something its reality; its must be in the Chicago water; just like Jimmy Carter his own arrogance and his naivety about Foreign Policy will make him a one term bad President, Obama should remember that it was not the Great Society ( or HCR in the case of Obama ) that bought down LBJ it was Vietnam, the failure of Obama and a strike by Israel and the arrogance of the Oval will make Obama a one term President in 2012.

The War is over - HCR - Small Scale Action - Congress

The DC: Reports on the latest move by Rep. Stupak for tougher abortion language in the the health care reform bill. The liberal Democratic Congressional leadership has not caved to anti abortion Democrats when it comes to reform, this is good or their part. This blog has opposed HCR from the start but since its going to happen the Democrats should push for the US Government to pay for abortions or least fund the majority of the cost. The House leadership should not cave to Rep. Stupak, the DC reports that the leadership is still talking to Rep. Stupak over his new ideas to make the anti abortion language stronger, this is wrong, on this issue the leadership is right, support the right of women to have an abortion.

Sunday Vote - HCR

Fox News: Reports that Speaker Pelosi has the 216 votes in the House to pass health care reform. As stated days ago Speaker Pelosi had the votes but wanted to make herself look good with a couple of votes over the margin. My one prediction once the vote tally reaches 216 every Congressman/woman who have not voted will turn in to NO votes. Thus as HCR will pass the Republicans have to move on to the next battle, the Mid Term Congressional Elections, every moderate and conservative Democrat who vote for HCR have made themselves open to defeat. Thus go through the process on Sunday and the next minute run on a simple agenda, Repeal ObamaCare. Thus my prediction that the House will go Republicans and the Senate could also be in play in 2010.
