The Koch Brothers vs. Obama


The New York Times: Reports that the Koch Brothers backed Super Pac is to go after POTUS, the article states the following, " the Tea Party organization backed by the Koch brothers, is set to begin a $25 million advertising assault..".

Lets Get Real:

The Uber liberal NYT hates the Tea Party and its supporters, the view of the elite media is that the Tea Party are EVIL, they are demagogues, if you think this hype go and watch recent episode of the The Newsroom on Sky Atlantic, the liberal main stream media really hate the Tea Party, they never ask who backs the liberal Super Pacs, the US Supreme Court in a great decision has allowed individual people who are wealth to support Super Pacs, this is Democracy, and the elite media hate it, in the past they decide what was news, thus you never head about President Kennedy's women, or FDR' or LBJ's, it took a US magazine to get the John Edwards story out, while the uber liberal NYT was doing a character hit job on Senator McCain. The elite new media hate Fox News, because its not liberal, you only have to see how objective Fox News is when you look at the Evening News in the US, they tend to follow the line of the NYT. Thank goodness individuals and business can NOW talk in the public square, its called fairness and democracy folks.

Iran and Syria - Syrian Update



BBC News: Reports that Iran has confirmed its alliance with the Assad Regime in Syria.

Lets Get Real:

The Tehran Regime has no choice but to support Assad, without the Assad Regime in place its strategic power in the region would be limited. The Assad Regime allows Iran to support its terrorists allies in Lebanon, also threaten Israel. Also if the Assad Regime goes one has to ask how long can the Tehran Regime last, its under harsh international sanctions due to plans to become a nuclear armed power, the civic structure of Iran is falling apart, people make off the books deal to just to get through the day, thus Iran needs Assad in place, in this it is joined by Russia, it wants to keep its only warm water port, also the diversion of Syria allows Iran to develop its own nuclear power structure, the West is diverted, and Israel is under pressure from the Oval not to strike Iran before the US Presidential Election in November. The UN is blocked by the veto power of Russia and China, the Assad Regime will fall folks but the blood bath will be high and the World can not say it did not know.

Money - Mothers Milk of US Politics


The Hill: Reports that the Republican Nominee Governor Mitt Romney and Republican National Committee has out raised in donations President Obama and Democratic Party in July, Romney raised 101.3 million while Obama raised 75 million.

Lets Get Real:

The Obama Camp has been raising money but its been spending its faster, it has gone for the 1996, 2004 play book of Bill Clinton and Bush 43, it has tried to define Romney before the National Conventions and his choice of VP. This means that in the latter months of the Campaign that Romney will have more cash on hand, this could be of great benefit to Romney and the Republicans in getting out the vote for November and buying adverts in swing States. The Obama Strategy has worked so far, in swing States POTUS has a lead, but will that last when the Republicans let lose their adverts, they will have the money to change the picture of the Campaign, the election is not over folks, lets recall we have the debates. If the election was today you would have to give the nod to Obama, but that is based on the polls in the swing States, do you trust these polls, this blog has found that that samples of these polls over represent Democrats and African Americans, and even then the race is close. Thus its not over in till the fat elephant sings folks.

Never TRUST the LibDems - UK Coalition Government in Crisis


Telegraph: Reports that the UK Coalition Deputy PM Nick Clegg has stated that the Liberal Democrats will oppose boundary changes for Parliamentary Seats in the 2015 election because the Conservative Party has not supported House of Lords reform.

Lets Get Real:

The Liberal Democrats have show their true colour, YELLOW, they have shown they are not a Party of their word, the Coalition deal gave the LibDems a vote of PR in exchange for a vote to reduce the number of MPs in the House of Commons, and to give Parliamentary Seats equal voters. The breaking of the deal by the LibDems should make PM David Cameron throw in the towel when it comes to the Coalition, he should sack the LibDems Cabinet Ministers, and run a minority Conservative Government, it should move to the radical right, this is the time to play hard ball with the LibDems, if they want to act like selfish children, well send them to their room and run the House as it should be run, in a Conservative manner.

Syrian PM Defects - Major Blow to Assad Regime


BBC News: Reports that the Syrian PM Riad Hijbab and his family have defected to Jordan, the Assad Regime stated he has been sacked.

Lets Get Real:

This does have echoes of Tsarist Russia at the end, the top does not understand that the structure that kept the Regime above water is going rotten day by day, how long can President Assad trust his Ministers or Army, could Assad have the same fate as Gaddafi of Libya, or Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, it might be a only a matter of time, the Russians Foreign Office will be planning how to get rid of Assad and get in to the good books with the rebels, it wants to keep its only warm water Port, they might be to late for such a move, on the other hand the West should be wary, some excellent reporting by the The Times of London has shown that the rebels are formed by different groups, those seeking democracy and those with links to crime and terrorists structures. Thus folks decay will wither the Assad Regime, it just depends on the level of blood spilled.

US Unemployment = 8.3%


BBC News: Reports that US unemployment rate rose from 8.2% to 8.3%.

Lets Get Real:

This is not good news for President Obama, the voter sees the rate and thinks OMG, in English, O MY God, as the article notes a 163,000 jobs were created in July in the US, but that is not enough, to get the rate down. Also Obama might be getting hit by the good PR that the elite media is putting on the US economy, if you read the article you get the impression that things are turning around, that is a problem for Obama, as people that gave up might come back in to unemployment rate as they are searching for jobs. In other words elite stop helping POTUS, your causing a plus - negative reaction.

Obama vs. Romney - The Polls



It is that time of the week folks, the Polls, they are only a snapshot, but defines the Weekend political talk shows in the US.

Rasmussen Reports ( LV ): Reports on its daily tracking poll, today Governor Romney leads President Obama by 47% to 43%. Thus a 5% lead.

Gallup ( RV ): Report on its daily tracking poll, today President Obama leads Governor Romney by 47% to 45%.

Lets Get Real:

Thus folks its a dead heat, neither Obama or Romney have a solid lead that they can depend on, although State Polls give Obama the edge they are close, thus one really has to wait for Romney VP choice, then the National Conventions and then finally the all important DEBATES. Thus folks we have weeks of negative adverts, Obama is out of touch by Romney and from the Obama Camp that Romney is a rich elitist who favours the rich over the middle class and the poor, the record has not changed that much folks over the last few MONTHS, we wait for some clear space in the polls, something to happen that will push either Candidate ahead that will allow the political geeks to think about the result in November with some clear Empirical evidence.
