Obama the TAX HIKER - Romney Super Pac

Lets Get Real:

This advert is true folks, ObamaCare will raise taxes on the Middle Class, but it might be to late, nearly all the POLLS look bad for Romney, it might be time to think about 2016. The Republicans and their Super Pacs have failed to define Obama, this election is looking like a choice election, it was suppose to be about Obama. The uber main stream press are parroting the Obama Agenda, and Romney does not have the charisma of a Reagan or the folksy manner of Bush 43. If the Republican Nominee is to win and overshadow the media he has to be a larger than life character, otherwise the uber liberal media will define him, in this Romney it can be argued has failed. YES Obama is going to win folks, this blog is about the TRUTH, even if you do not like it, lets make it a close election folks, lets make POTUS work for it, but its OVER.

Are you Better off after Obama's 1st Term ? - Obama/Biden TV Advert

Lets Get Real:

This is a good attack advert folks, if you do not know the facts you would think that the Obama first term has taken the US out of ditch and taken it on the road to riches. The stock market is up due to the fact that the Fed has spent billions on the system, the Obama jobs growth has more to with the fact that hundred of thousands of Americans have just given up looking for work. The jobs created by Obama is not enough to match population growth. The US is heading for a financial cliff should Obama get re-elected, the Credit Agencies have made it clear that the US Credit rating could get a further downgrade. The printing of money will lead to inflation. Thus this advert is all smoke and mirror folks, very effective but a lie from start to finish. It is the Chicago way folks, if you can not spin the truth, spin lies.

The Iran Crisis - Update

Telegraph: Reports the following development in the Iran Crisis, " ..armada of US and British naval power is massing in the Persian Gulf in the belief that Israel is considering a pre-emptive strike against Iran’s covert nuclear weapons programme. ".

Lets Get Real:

In Israel the Government must be thinking, is Romney going to lose in his bid to unseat President Obama, the polls do not look good, thus what should Israel do about Iran's nuclear threat, do they really trust that President Obama will not allow Iran to join the nuclear club, if the answer is in the negative then Israel will have to strike Tehran, the best time in political and defence terms would be close as possible to the US Presidential Election in November, this would force the Oval to support Israel in public and follow through with US attacks on Iran, it could not allow Iran to attack US and Western interests in the Middle East. The would depress the uber liberal base of the Democratic Party and give a Republicans the chance to define Obama as not fit for the job. Thus the question then folks IS WHEN? the election is on November 6th, thus the weekend before would be a good time to hit, also the Oval is dealing with the Middle East up in flames over a anti Muslim film, an attack by Israel on Iran could make that look like happy hour. Thus all politics is local folks, the article notes that POTUS will meet the Israeli PM after originally saying no to a meeting, it seems that the ego of the White House has to listen to the Israeli lobby. Tense times ahead folks, the Middle East might be facing a regional WAR.

Afghan Police Attacks on NATO Forces - Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports that the two UK Soldiers killed on Saturday in Afghanistan were killed by Afghan man wearing a Afghan Police uniform.

Lets Get Real:

Our forces need new orders when dealing with suspect Afghan Policemen, these green on blue attacks, the green represent Afghan, the blue NATO, are far to common, our Forces need more flexibility when it comes to shooting. The orders should say that if a NATO Soldier feels under threat he has the right to shoot and ask questions a lot later. This blog wants to trust our Afghan allies, BUT not at the expense of our forces, time to be more interested in keeping our Soldiers alive, even if that upsets the Afghans, lets not allow a UK Soldier to die to because we want to be PC.

A Town Called Mercy - Doctor Who Review

The Doctor Who News Page: Reports that the good Doctor gained 6.6 million viewers in the overnight tracking. This made the Doctor the top Drama for Saturday ( this discounts reality shows of any kind ).

Lets Get Real:

This was a fun and though provoking episode folks, the Doctor showed his darker side from last week was just not a one off, he threw war criminal or not, depending on your point of view to his death. The Alien was saved by a gutsy Amy Pond and the town law enforcer. It seems that the Doctor is forgetting the nature of mercy, that he has gone from a BIG LIBERAL, the last few hundred years to Dick Cheney, what next water boarding. The the fun side folks, the Doctor talking horse, that was fun, the Doctor doing High Noon, and at the end finding his inner Doctor, mixture of liberal/conservative. It is an episode that require close attention, does the need to end a war mean that you have to do dirty things, does that change you, do we all carry out own prisons in our mind, one we can never escape, one we built over the years, deep folks.
