The Chicago Mob Via Obama and the Liberal NYT

The New York Times: Has a tough editorial on the Sestak and Romanoff affairs, the extreme liberal NYT writes the following on the Obama White House and the actions of President Obama " It would be a good idea for him quickly to become much more aware of what his political operatives are doing,...". It seems that even the bloated liberal New York Times is smelling political Chicago mob methods in the Obama White House, the offering of paid government jobs for candidates not run in state is elections is against US election law, the growing trend shows a Watergate type mentality in the Obama White House, they are starting to believe their own press statements, they think they know what is in the interest of the country and will do what ever it takes, lets see who does that recall, YES, Richard Nixon, it starts in this way, the usual politics then someone down the political ladder goes well beyond that and you have Watergate or Iran - Contra. It is time for Obama to clean house at the White House, bring in a new political team, new Chief of Staff etc, it just might get him re-elected in 2012 and prevent a massive political scandal. Folks the Ego of the White House is heading for a political fall, either in the Mid Term Congressional Elections of 2010 or in the US Court System.

Bill Clinton and Iran

The National Security Archive: Has secret Clinton Documents that look at the attempts by the Clinton Administration to start talks with Iran. As the NSA notes the problem that Bill Clinton found was that power in Iran is held in various elite groups, not just one person as in the President, but this should not have been knew to the Clinton Administration, Ronald Reagan while trying to open to talks with Iran thought he had found people in the Tehran Regime that would be willing to talk, it was a mistake, Obama has fallen over himself in attempt to talk to Tehran, they have slapped him with a wet fish. The end result folks of all these talks is that Iran is not that far away in political terms from becoming part of the nuclear club, sometimes talk is not enough, sometimes you have to get in the saddle and charge.

Trial from Chicago

The Times: Reports on the trial of ex Governor of Illinois Rod Blagojevich. This trial does have its fun aspects, the Governor, Rod Blagojevich comes across as a Hollywood D - Lister, but the fun in political terms comes from the fact that Governor Blagojevich is alleged by Federal Authorities to have tried to sell the Senate seat of President Obama. Lets be clear in general here folks, Governor Blagojevich is Innocent till proven guilty. So lets discuss Chicago politics in the round, in the round due to the fact that it can be argued with some justification that the Chicago Political system is bent, there is a long rich history of bent pols from Chicago or elections fixed. lets see the 1960 Presidential Election comes to mind, Cook County had more dead people voting that those that used oxygen. Thus we have natural state of corruption of the state but what is fun is the fact that Chicago methods are now being used in the Oval, the use by the Obama White House to get people not to run in state election by the use of offering people Federal jobs, that illegal folks. Thus lets see if Blago can take down Obama, lets see how much of the Oval Carpet Blago can burn, before Obama faces the Mid Term Congressional Elections in 2010 and his own re-election in 2012.

New Gaza Ship TENSION

Fox News: Reports that a new Ship is heading for Gaza, Israel has stated it will prevent any unchecked ships reaching Gaza. It will be interesting to see how far the Israeli Government goes over this new ship incident, the UN does not mean a thing, the Obama Administration to give it is due is trying not to have a policy, Obama needs the Jewish vote, its only 2% of the US vote but after the fall of the Obama poll ratings Obama needs to keep himself in the running for the 2012 race, thus Obama if he is political wise will hope that Israel can take the ship without any deaths, or no pictures, either will do, lets see if these demonstrators really want to help Gaza or just want to be on the 24 hour news cycle, but on the whole just wish the issue would go away, its tedious at the end of the day, neither side will give an inch, and it clogs the airways of other real political stories.
