Clinton Email Scandal - Update
Fox News: Reports " Former Hillary Clinton IT specialist Bryan Pagliano, a key witness in the email probe who struck an immunity deal with the Justice Department, has told the FBI a range of details about how her personal email system was set up, according to an intelligence source close to the case who called him a “devastating witness.” "
Lets Get Real:
This is the ONE scandal that the Clintons can not seem to lose, of course an understanding of US politics one knows that the FBI or the Obama DoJ will not really go after Clinton, its for show, who in the FBI or Obama's Department of Justince has the backbone to go after the Clintons. They will get away with this scandal, just because their name is CLINTON.
How Obama FAILED to lead the WEST - 2nd Obama Term
Guardian: Reports " Obama's criticism of Cameron reveals president's own weaknesses...To complain so candidly while still in office is unusual, but Obama inadvertently highlights what historians may come to see as his major flaw in international affairs "
Lets Get Real:
In can be postulated that when it comes to foreign policy the Obama Oval has no clue, just because it was right about Iraq does not mean that it understood the complex nature of international affairs, when Obama left Iraq without leaving US troops behind it allowed for the growth of IS in Syria and Iraq. The failure to bomb Assad after he used chemical weapons on his own people allowed a role for Putin's Russia and created more death in Syria. In the Ukraine Russia took over the Crimea and has taken over parts of Eastern Ukraine. the low level conflict goes on in the region. In can be argued that the failures in the Middle East and Eastern Europe place Obama as the successor to Jimmy Carter. The Iran deal gave Iran what it wanted and gave nothing to the West, Tehran will go nuclear and the blame will be with President Obama. As for Cuba, the Castro brothers are rewarded while its jails are full of those that oppose the regime.
The Failure of the Obama Foreign Policy - Syria and Libya
Daily Mail: Reports " Britain's 'special relationship' with the United States came under threat today as a former Cabinet minister hit back at Barack Obama after he savaged David Cameron for leaving Libya a 's*** show' after intervening to oust Colonel Gadaffi in 2011. "
Lets Get Real:
Thus we can expect a lot of this re-writing of history by the Obama Oval from now in till the election in November. This is a President who has lead from behind, is more interested in his own rhetoric than reality. When an American President says there is a red line, and then does nothing, it undercuts the US and the West. Thus we have the disaster that is Syria and Iraq in the Middle East and Putin pushing to gain more ground in the Ukraine. The allies of the West know that the Oval can not be trusted, the enemies of the US, Iran, Syria, North Korea, Russia know that Obama can be pushed around. The state of the security in the World has gotten worse since Obama, the US and the World needs a new Reagan.

Obama on David Cameron and the Special Relationship
BBC News: Reports " The White House says David Cameron has been "as close a partner" as Barack Obama has had, after the president appeared to criticise the PM. "
Lets Get Real:
This is about a failed President on his way out, who has had a failed policy in Libya, Syria and Iraq. The President is trying to make his legacy look good after allowing his arrogant view to override those of others. In Syria the President did not follow through with his bombing threat, then he withdrew troops from Iraq that allowed for the creation of Daesh and when it comes to Syria and Iraq is doing just enough to hand over to a new Administration. It can be postulated that Obama is a even worse President than Jimmy Carter and that takes some doing. The World is waiting to see who will be elected President in November, hoping its not Trump.

Is Ted Cruz the new Richard Nixon? - Election 2016
The New York Times: Reports " Senator Ted Cruz is under fire from Senator Marco Rubio’s campaign, which accuses him and his campaign of employing more “dirty tricks” ahead of the Republican caucuses in Hawaii on Tuesday and spreading false rumors that Mr. Rubio is dropping out of the race. "
Lets Get Real:
This is the SECOND time that the Cruz Campaign has played dirty pool, the first time was in Iowa, one can say that Trump is bad, while Cruz recalls Richard Nixon and not in a good way, that how scandals start, lets recall Nixon played dirty pool to get elected in 1968, it ended up in Watergate, what happens if Cruz wins the nomination and wins the Presidnecy, how far would a Cruz Administration go to get its policy ends. As posted by this blog one really has to see Governor Kasich as the adult in the room, he would make a fine President, the only problem is that Kasich needs to win his home State of Ohio and then have a contested convention. They are long odds even for this blog.
MR OCD - Testing Stage
As those that read this blog know the writer has severe OCD, in looking for a North Wales suppport Group it has found that there is a lack of a on line help, it was suggested that I start a one line site for those in North Wales that would like to discuss the condition. As having the condition in the real world might cause job or family problems this blog is keeping it under its on line presence of Views from the UK 2006. There will be no politics on the THIS OCD page, thus even liberals, Guardian readers are welcome, the problem is with OC is that everybody thinks they understand the subject, as any one with OCD will tell you the condition is complex and has many outcomes. As this blog has a severe condition it find it sometimes just hard to get out of bed, it takes five tablets a night, and they work, the constant negative worries are contained, or forgotten, of course washing hands has not be solved, thus what do you say to a future employer, that you have the need to wash your hands more often than not, that you will clean you computer with a wipe just to make sure no else has used it. This OCD once saw a show that showed that one of the great places to have germs is a keyboard, thus the need to wipe if at work and at home when you take the computer out. When this blog travels, it cleans it keyboard, the computer and the case, yes it sounds nuts, but when it is does not done is causes a constant worry, are there any germs on it, can I use it outside if it is not clean.
Of course in the real World when you tell someone you have the condition it does cause an eyebrow to rise, most OCD people are alright around sharp objects. One finds people to joke about the condition, its can be funny SOMETIMES, but when you have had a BAD day or those negative thoughts will not be contained it is irrating, but you smile, people expect you to see the funny side, it is funny sometimes, looking back, when you have retraced your steps, did you hear something or did someone give you the evil eye. As I said the tablets can help, but sometimes you just to talk to someone who does not judge, but understands, thus this page under Views from the UK 2006. Please feel to leave a critic of this post or just to tell your story, the comments judge is on, thus ALL messages will be checked. Thank you for reading this post.
P.S One finds that even telling your friends can cause problems, you expect support, but sometimes you find that they are not THERE, this is blog POST is for YOU, if there is no one to talk to you, just leave a message and hopefully we can have a North Wales presence to help everyone with the condition in North Wales.
