Obama 48% Disapprove = Gallup

Gallup: Reports on its latest daily tracking polls on Obama's performance as President, its not good news for the President, President Obama has a 44% approval rating, while 48% disapprove of the job performance of Obama. Its not just the oil spill that has hurt Obama in the polls, its the general arrogance of the White House, you can be arrogant but you better be right, Obama argued to Democrats that once health care reform was passed the voters would support the move, the last poll had nearly 70% opposed to ObamaCare, when it comes to Watergate style use of job offers to get people to throw races this does not look like what Obama offered on the Campaign trial in 2008, what is worse is the fact that Obama has moved Chicago methods in to Oval and used Bill Clinton as one of his operatives. Thus we come to the oil spill, one has to think the Olympic Gods thought one way to show that Obama could not walk on water was to create a crisis deep in the water, thus the present problems for the President. One can postulate in less Obama is very lucky the Mid Term Congressional Elections are going to be a nightmare, very much like Bill Clinton had in 1994. The question that has to be asked does Obama have the talent to recover or are we seeing another Jimmy Carter with charisma. Iran is the next problem for Obama, and that could be much worse for the Oval.

Japan = Greece ?

Guardian: Reports that the Government of Japan has warned that it could be on the same path as Greece when it comes to its debt. It is simple folks, there is to much debt in the system, the generic Western Governments can not afford the welfare states that have developed since 1945, the banking disaster of 2008 and the bailouts are just icing on top of a debt from the welfare systems. Those countries that have a welfare system have to have a real and hard public discussion about the role of Government in the civic structure, at the end of the day people will have to accept that the Government can not cover you from birth to death, the Government can only be there for those that really need help, the question that has to be asked do modern Western politicians have the political nerve to tell truth to the voters, if not future generations will pay the costs of the bad Government policy of today.

SHUT UP OBAMA = DPM Clegg

Telegraph: Reports on the UK Deputy PM Nick Clegg in essence telling President Obama to shut up about BP. It is great that it is the Lib Dem leader that is telling Obama to shut up about BP, this really places the Labour Party right off the cliff, they are either going to defend Obama and his his attacks on BP and thus the pensions of UK subjects or they support the move and annoy the left. This new politics is fun, Lib Dems can attack Obama as they are the Liberal part of the Coalition but also they support public spending cuts, thus the blame is shared by the Conservatives and the Lib Dems.

Cameron on Afghanistan

BBC News: Reports on a visit by the new Conservative PM David Cameron to Afghanistan, the PM stressed that UK was in Afghanistan to protect the national security of the UK. The sentiment stressed by PM Cameron was the same line as Gordon Brown, the new Coalition Government could have used the economic mess that Labour left behind as a reason to withdraw or cut UK troops in Afghanistan, it seems we are tied to the Obama Administration, even when Obama by his language is threatening the pensions of UK subjects by his attack on BP.

Obama on UN Iran SANCTIONS

Well the UN has passed another weak resolution against Iran and what does Obama do, well here are a few of his chosen words, " We made clear from the beginning of my administration that the United States was prepared to pursue diplomatic solutions to address the concerns over Iranian nuclear programs. I extended the offer of engagement on the basis of mutual interest and mutual respect. And together with the United Kingdom, with Russia, China, and Germany, we sat down with our Iranian counterparts. We offered the opportunity of a better relationship between Iran and the international community –- one that reduced Iran’s political isolation, and increased its economic integration with the rest of the world. In short, we offered the Iranian government the prospect of a better future for its people, if -– and only if –- it lives up to its international obligations. ". This sounds like the President of the United States is begging, the leader of the West gives the impression that he bowing to Iran. This impression is helped with the following, "... We’ve made it clear, time and again, that we respect Iran’s right, like all countries, to access peaceful nuclear energy...". Iran has just slapped Obama with a wet fish and he wants Iran to have any nuclear power, how much abuse can a Harvard Graduate take, would not work on a Welshman. There is some teeth in the remarks of President Obama, the President states the following on the UN resolution, " That’s why the international community was compelled to impose these serious consequences. These are the most comprehensive sanctions that the Iranian government has faced. They will impose restrictions on Iran’s nuclear activities, its ballistic missile program, and, for the first time, its conventional military. They will put a new framework in place to stop Iranian smuggling, and crack down on Iranian banks and financial transactions. They target individuals, entities, and institutions -– including those associated with the Revolutionary Guard –- that have supported Iran’s nuclear program and prospered from illicit activities at the expense of the Iranian people. And we will ensure that these sanctions are vigorously enforced, just as we continue to refine and enforce our own sanctions on Iran alongside our friends and our allies. " The above should have been at the start, and the idea of talks and Iran getting nuclear help should have been deleted after the 1st Draft. Obama then undercuts the above with the following remarks, " These sanctions do not close the door on diplomacy. Iran continues to have the opportunity to take a different and better path. I would like nothing more than to reach the day when the Iranian government fulfills its international obligations -– a day when these sanctions are lifted, previous sanctions are lifted, and the Iranian people can finally fulfill the greatness of the Iranian nation. ". It can be argued that Obama makes Jimmy Carter look like a leader, never thought would ever write that sentence. The weakness is built upon with the following, " I want and hope for the people of Iran that the government of Iran will make a different choice. It can make a different choice and pursue a course that will reaffirm the NPT as the basis of global non-proliferation and disarmament -– a course that will advance Iran’s own security and prosperity, and the peace of the wider world...". If your in Tehran you hear weakness, a President that cant hear NO, a President who thinks if he says something that is real, that is a road that has left the US a laughing stock, also a President who will sell out his allies to fit his ow ego of himself, just ask Poland and the Czech Republic. One can postulate that JFK and Reagan would turn their backs on Obama, a weak man and a weak President.
