ObamaCare Illegal - US Federal Court

The New York Times: Reports that a US Federal Appeals Court has found the foundation of ObamaCare illegal, the Court found that you cant force people to buy medical cover. Thus folks another nail in the coffin of ObamaCare, the issue will know go up to the US Supreme Court, it can be postulated that they will find the same, in general the law is legal but its core that US citizens must by medical cover to be illegal, as this foundation funds the rest of the Act the law would fall apart, the Republicans in Congress are never going to pass funding, thus its like buying a second hand car from a charismatic car dealer and find no engine. Fun times ahead folks on the legal and political front.

August Silly Season Story = Damon 2012

Guardian: Reports on the call for the Liberal actor Matt Damon to challenge President Obama for the 2012 Democratic nomination. Folks this made me laugh, finally a August silly season story, only the Guardian would give this kind of story a page, Mr Damon is fine actor but he is out there in liberal terms. One gets the impression that Mr Damon is quite a clever actor, he did win a Oscar for a writing, but one can postulate that Mr Damon knows he would not win nomination, also highly unlikely he would win the job of dog catcher. Reagan was helped by the fact that he was an actor, but its was the message that allowed Reagan to win, the Gipper one can argue is chuckling from above at this silly season story.

Tax = Coalition Government

Telegraph: Reports that the Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne has sent out a message that the 50p income tax rate will go, it is expected to abolished in 2013. This tax development will go down well with the Conservative Party and business leaders, the Liberal Democrats will have to be bribed, tax on mansions or something in that range, also before the 2015 election the Chancellor has to cut taxes at the lower rate, also look to cut VAT or other domestic taxes. Over the next two years the UK Budgets should look to boost the economy and thus make the Government popular for the election.

Bachmann for VP to Romney

BBC News: Reports that Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann has won the Iowa straw poll. This will make the left wing BBC & Guardian happy, but they allowing what they want to happen to what will happen, Congresswoman Bachmann will not be the Republican nominee for President, the Republican voters, even the tea party movement want a winner to unseat President Obama, thus the race will come down to Governors Romney and Perry, the Iowa poll was good news for Governor Perry, he was not even on the ballot and he gained 718 write in votes, this blog is still convinced so far that Governor Romney will be the nominee, would like Governor Perry to be the nominee but not sure that the Governor has not left to late to unseat Romney as the leading candidate. Thus if it is Romney the Governor will need to unite the Republican Party, thus having Congresswoman Bachmann as his VP, the darling of the tea party movement, very conservative, and the left wing media hate her, all ticks for the Republicans. Thus we just might be seeing the formation of a Romney/Bachmann ticket for 2012, read it here first folks.
