The Liberal Left and Iran

The New York Times: Has an interesting Op - Ed piece on Iran, as expected the Liberal left does not surprise, the article states the following, " because the time has come to do nothing in Iran. ". If POTUS was to follow that advice Israel would have no choice but to take action, Iran can no be allowed to get the nuclear bomb, this would lead to a war in the Middle East.

The Health Care Bill - US Senate

The Hill: Reports that the Democratic leadership in the US Senate will release its final version of the compromise health care bill on Saturday. The US leadership in the US Senate would not release this final version of the bill without already having secured the 60 votes to end debate. Thus the Bill should pass due to the fact that there is no public option, medicare will not cover more people and the abortion rules will be tight as in the House. This blog supports the bill as it reforms the system, those with pre -existing conditions will not be barred from getting health cover, those that have an illness can not be thrown off their cover due to costs, all Americans will have to pay for insurance, this will help cover those without insurance. The bad aspect of the bill is that abortion will not be paid for by the US Government, that is wrong on the morality and on the politics but Liberals would not fight for their cause, typical, I hope women take notice that you cant trust Democrats to take care of your interests at the of day.

What is Iran up to in Iraq ?

BBC News: Reports that troops from Iran have taken over an Iraqi oil well on the border between Iran and Iraq. This could be a crafty move by Iran, one can postulate that Tehran wants the USA to move them out, then they can say that Tehran was taking back an oil well that belonged to Iran and that USA was really in charge in Iraq. On the other hand if Baghdad sends in the troops, Tehran could back up its outpost with more troops, this could drag in the USA. A very crafty move by Tehran, another humiliation for Obama. At its most basic this is a play for time, a diversion while Iran goes nuclear, always recall that folks, any story like this is a diversion from the real issue, Iran and the bomb.
