That’s the fun thing about politics, one minute your up and the next your down, the fight never ends, that is Democracy.

Terrorists RETURN to the FIGHT in Afghanistan = Guantanamo Bay

Letter from the Past - Titanic
Guardian: Reports on the auction of a letter from RMS Titanic, letter came from a First Class passenger that survived the sinking in 1912. Its historical importance comes from the fact that it was posted while the ship was in UK waters, then Ireland. One always has to wonder if you had been a passenger on the stricken liner, would you have been heroic, coward or the middle bit, scared and dead.
South Korea on Red Alert
Fox News: Reports that the South Korean Military have been placed on Red Alert after the sinking of one of the naval vessels. Its odd but last night and I am being honest, I dreamt that I was reading a tweet that stated that North Korean tanks had entered South Korea. Even dream International Politics!!. An actual event and dream is not a prediction in my book, but one can postulate an event, North Korea, with his nuclear forces thinks that the Obama Administration with its wars in Afghanistan and Iraq could not take action if North Korea moved its million man army in to South Korea. The regime in North Korea would be right, also more important the US cant take action as long as North Korea has the nuclear missiles and warheads to hit Japan and its other Allies in the region. Lets hope dreams don't come true folks.
50% Disapproval of POTUS
Real Clear Politics Blog: Reports on more bad news for the Obama White House, a new poll for USAT/Gallup shows that President Obama has a 47% approval rating, while 50% Disapprove. RCP states the following on the poll, " pretty grim for the President and his party ". The negative tend of the Obama ratings is down to one issue folks, yes back to health care reform. The spin that the Oval gave to blue dog democrats was that once the Bill was passed the public would buy its benefits, no ban on pre - existing conditions, no cap on the cost of cover, millions of Americans who do not have cover will get cove, but the negatives are more important in the run up to the 2010 Mid Term Congressional Elections, the tax hikes, forcing Americans to buy medical cover, the cutting of benefits to those that are old, and the big bear in the debate, the cost folks, near a TRILLION dollars. If the Act is not repealed the US will go the way of Rome and British Empires and go broke, the cost of health care never goes down, the liberals either believe their own spin or have been economic with the truth. The Republicans should run on one simple slogan, REPEAL OBAMA CARE.
