Emotional Blackmail and Taxes - 2nd Obama Term

CNN - Politics: Reports the following on the effects of the agreed governments cuts if they came in to effect as stated by President Obama, " ..warned Tuesday of diminished emergency services, longer airport security lines and other problems.. ". 

Lets Get Real: 

One is surprised that the Oval did not have starving children and weeping mothers at the front, yes folks its that low, might work, the liberal ellite media, CNN etc will run the Oval line, the elite media will not ask the Oval if its is ready to suspend ObamaCare during this crisis, or suspend its money throwing policies when it comes to green issues.   The Republicans should just tell the elite media to get stuffed, refused to do interviews, only do Fox News, those interviews are balanced and fair, time for Republicans to grown a steel backbone, and tell the Oval it has to make major cuts in welfare before any agreement.    The Oval respects a steel resistance as mentioned, time for Republicans to be more like Reagan, call a spade a spade, Obama is a tax and spend liberal, just say NO. 

Emotional Blackmail and Obama Tax Hike Agenda

The New York Times: Reports that President Obama used the threat that those that work in the emergency services would lose their jobs if the pre set cuts come in to force, the article notes the following, " ..reflected the political frame that he has devised to try to force Republicans into compromising with him by supporting some higher revenues — something they so far refuse to do. ". 

Lets Get Real: 

This is typical of the Obama, he using blackmail, very simple and quite effective if the Republicans play that game, just say NO to the Oval, force the Oval to make real cuts in welfare, just do not play on the Oval field.    If the Republicans refuse to play the blame at the end of the day will land on the Oval, the President should be able to work with the Congress, Obama does not do well when people are not falling at his feet, in fact he folds, just ask North Korea and Iran, he can't use drones on them, that simple and brutal folks.   The Democrats will try anything to avoid doing cuts, they know they are cutting their own throats, they only have tax hikes, in never ends, and when you can not tax the rich any more, its the Middle Class that get it in the neck, factual.    That is why the Conservatives and Republicans always come back and win, that is why Lady Thatcher won in 1979 and Ronald Reagan in 1980, people just get tired for paying for other people, harsh but the real world folks. 

North Korea THREAT to South Korea - Korean Crisis

Telegraph: Reports the following threat form North Korea, " South Korea faces "final destruction" if Seoul and its allies continue to push for tougher UN resolutions against North Korea's nuclear programme, Pyongyang warned on Tuesday. ".

Lets Get Real:

This is the typical BS that North Korea comes out with folks, its rubbish, even the Stalinist Regime of North Korea gets the fact that if it starts a WAR with South Korea the US and its allies will destroy North Korea, so empty threat folks.  It the same on the US and its allies side,  they can not do a d-m thing about North Korea, it is armed nuclear power, with a million man army on the border with South Korea.  If  a WAR does break out it will destroy North Korea and its evil regime, cause mass death and destruction in the South, lead to the Japan going nuclear.   Thus folks we are seeing a game, a dangerous game, and its results could lead to a nuclear armed Iran, then start to worry folks.   The Tehran Regime have seen  what happened to Gaddafi of Libya after his gave up his weapons of mass destruction,  also the Civil War in Syria after Israel removed the chance of a nuclear armed Syria in 2007.   Thus the Middle East faces tense months folks. 

Hillary Clinton for President - 2016

Guardian: Reports the next phase in the career of former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, the article notes the following, " The former secretary's next moves are being closely watched for signs that she is running – or not – for the presidency in 2016. So far she has not stated an intention to do so. ".

Lets Get Real: 

Thus as the article notes Hillary Clinton has joined the speech circuit,  and will write her memoirs, the question is what next, in many respects the decision could be down to what happens in the 2nd Obama term, does Syria civil war lead to a regional war, does North Korea help Iran become a nuclear armed power, does this lead to backlash against the Obama team, and of course Hillary Clinton was his 1st Secretary of State.   Do the Clintons put some distance between them and the Obama Oval, does VP Biden really think he has a chance of getting elected in 2016, will President Obama understand that if his agenda has a future after 2016 then he has to pick a candidate and that candidate has to win, lot of questions folks, not a lot of answers, this year should give some answers, and the first might come from Israel, do they hit Iran, with or without US approval and what are the results in the Middle East.  Watch this space folks. 

Obama and Tax - 2nd Obama Term

BBC News: Reports that President Obama is pushing for more tax hikes as to prevent set cuts coming in due to a previous agreement with Congress. 

Lets Get Real: 

This is typical Obama strategy, refuse to deal and hope the other side folds, the Oval and the Democrats on the Hill were never going to agree to real welfare cuts, they Democrats need people to be on welfare, they scare those on benefits at election time that those nasty Republicans are going to take away their benefits.  If the present welfare state, created by FDR and LBJ was not around the Democrats would never get back in to power.   As over 40% of US voters are on some form of welfare, that is an in built Democratic vote, thus they will never cut big government departments, the Republicans have to take the risk and allow the agreed to cuts to come, they can always put more money in to defence, the same can not be said of welfare, the Republicans should call the bluff the White House, allow the agreed cuts to come in to force,  then the Oval will know it has to deal in good faith in the future, that the Republicans will not fold like a cheap tent.   Time for Republicans to grow a backbone folks. 

Iran and North Korea and the UN

Telegraph: Reports on the following statement by the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon, " Iran is using the same methods as North Korea to develop its nuclear capabilities, requiring "firm, decisive and effective" action by the Security Council, the United Nations secretary general has warned. ".

Lets Get Real:

It can be postulated that the UN Chief sees the UN going the way of the League of Nations in the 1930s, if the UN can not deal with two of the most important threats to World security in the 21st Century what is the point of its existence.    The North Koreans can not be touched, they are a nuclear armed nation, if they attacked they could cause mass deaths in the region,  also Japan could become a target.    This could force Japan to go nuclear in the near future.  As for Iran the Oval has a very short time scale to act, Israel will not allow a nuclear armed Iran, thus either the Oval can get real talks or Israel will have to act, with or without US approval,  they have in 1981 over Iraq and 2007 over Syria and of late of course.   The Oval might wish that these problems go away, they will not, it will not be peace in our time, any time soon folks. 

Iran and the BOMB - Iran Crisis

Guardian: Report that the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Khamenei has stated that " that no state has right to stop Tehran building nuclear arms if it chose to do so .. ". 

Lets Get Real:

This is Iran for once telling the truth folks, they are going for the bomb, no matter what the public PR, they want endless talks as to buy time, the more time the West thinks that Iran is talking in good faith the more time Iran gets to getting the bomb.  A Tehran with the bomb would be a disaster for the Middle East and for the West, the Oval would have to act, the liberal coalition that Obama has created would fall apart, the extreme liberals will never support any military action against Iran, thus Obama would need Republican support, and that folks would cost, his domestic agenda would hit the deck, faster and with not much compromise from the Republicans.   The Oval should learn the lessons of Munich and of Vietnam, the arrogance of the Leader, as with Chamberlain and LBJ, it destroyed them in the end, nothing is that new in World history folks, and arrogant leaders is not new, Obama joins a very long list, the sad part is that Obama is not aware of his own arrogance.
