The Obama EGO and the Paris Attacks - New War on Terror


Lets Get Real:

It is simple, the Ego that is the Oval Office can not cope with attention not being on him, his constant need for press support means that ANY event that is not about Obama is of less importance.  One blog worries that when the ego leaves office in 2017 that he will have a mid life crisis, no press attention, no press kissing his backside, the President will need PR Rehab, coping with the real world after the Oval.   

UK General Election - Poll LEAD for Tories


Lets Get Real:

Before we start to celebrate lets recall this is one poll, the UK voter has months of constant campaign by the political parties,  by the end the typical voter will just want it over, for political geeks its fun, the present poll has the following results, The results put the Tories on 34 per cent, up four points, ahead of Labour on 28 per cent, down three points, compared with the same time last month. "  One has to think that the Labour Party will get a better result that it got in 2010, thus this blog is still going with its original thought that the Labour Party will win the General Election with a narrow majority or with the support of the Lib Dems and other parties.    The structure of the election means that it takes more Torie voters to vote an MP that it does Labour.   Thus in pure math terms the Labour Party should win. 

IS attacks US Cyber Military Accounts - New War on Terror


Lets Get Real:

In modern terms the IS terrorists did some vandalism on US cyber accounts, that is not the problem, the problem is how the cyber terrorists managed it, a PR success for IS and a own goal for the Obama Administrtation and the Defence Department.   The Oval Office has to make sure that the terrorists can not attack other cyber foundations.   The North Korean attack on Sony showed how much companies have their daily routines on the cloud, what if the IS could attack a US nuclear plant, or other vital points in the US.    The US Congress should invest in building up US security, the next time the US might not be this lucky.   The problem was fixed, what if the next time it leads to deaths in the US or abroad. 

The Written Word Strikes Back - Charlie Hebdo's Return

Lets Get Real:
The failure of the terrorists is shown by the fact that the Charlile Hebdo front cover will have an image that will send the terrorists nuts again.   The  right of freedom of speech is more important than any religion.  The Islamic faith has to get in to the 21 Century, its extreme views has to be rebuked, and those thta turn Islam in to an evil force have to be thrown out by their friends and neighbours.   If we do not  have free speech we have nothing, the humour of Charlie Hebdo might not be my kind of humour, that does not matter, it has a right in the Western secular World to write and poke fun at anything, that is the point of liberal democracy,
