CNN: Reports that former Senator John Edwards is on the Obama VP List. It would be ironic if the 2004 candidate for VP under Senator Kerry was also the 2008 candidate for VP under Obama. Also he helps Obama in the South and with Reagan Democrats. JUST PLEASE NO MORE TWO AMERICANS SPEECH'S!. On the other hand the VP is meant to be the attack dog in the race, Edwards failed to get his hands dirty for Kerry in 2004. Obama should ask Kerry what he really thought of his running mate. Also one more PR thing, he makes Obama look older, that is also good, still have my doubts that Obama will pick a face from the past.

Israel and Iran
Fox News: The military exercise by Israel is the top story on the Fox News Site. The message has worked it can be argued, the elite media is convinced that Israel will attack Iran. This message will have gotten to Iran, and EU now knows it does not have all the time in the world. I expect Oil Prices to hit new targets over the coming months.
Israel attack on Iran ?
IHT: Israel is getting ready to attack Iran, the planning and the exercise just the build up. If your a leader in Israel are you going to wait for Iran to get the bomb and starts to blackmail you and the West. The attack is coming its just when it takes place, if Israel would wait till after the USA Presidential Election, this would take the issue out of the election and would allow the candidates not to state a view, McCain would support and Obama would oppose, after the election it would not matter to Obama, it would be the transition period.
Wiretapping
New York Times: Reports from first reading like a victory for President Bush when it comes to the need to overhear the conversations of terrorist suspects. Also the Telephone Companies get a pass due to their actions after 9/11. It shows that a lame duck President still has the power even with Congress. The Liberal New York Times will hate this policy.
