The Daily Mail: Reports on the latest wikileaks releases, the US and Afghanistan had a negative view of the UK role in Afghanistan, President Karzai thought the UK was not up to the job, other Afghan sources had the UK hiding from the enemy in their bases, and the US thought the UK had made a mess of the deployment. Our fine and heroic troops doe not need to hear such rubbish, but its out there folks, if the US still has a negative view of the UK role in Afghanistan then the UK should get out, these opinions do recall the UK being thrown out of Iraq in 2009. By the end the Iraqi Government and the US Military Command didn’t trust the UK to fight the terrorists. After the War in Afghanistan is over for our Armed Forces in 2015 the UK Army really has to look at how it does nation building, Basra was not Belfast during the troubles, sometimes one got the impression that some of the Military thought Iraq was Northern Ireland. Thus a new strategic and tactical structure has to be formed for future wars and fast, Iran could be on the horizon folks. Lets salute all our Armed Forces, they are great fighters, they are just let down by their Government.

Democrats and Taxes
The Page - Time: Reports that Democrats are falling apart over the issue of the Bush 43 tax cuts. The problem is that Democrats are fighting the 2006/08 races again, they are like old Generals fighting their past victories, they think that POTUS has influence over the Republicans, that went if it ever existed with the health care fight. The Republicans WON, the Democrats have to get over that fact or they will lose the White House and Senate in 2012. The Democrats are going to have to cave over taxes, otherwise they are going to go over a big cliff, the left might just be the best friends that Conservative Republicans have on the Hill.
9.8% Unemployment in the US
The New York Times: Reports on a sharp raise of those that are unemployed in the US, the rate has gone from 9.6% to 9.8%. One can lay the blame at the door of the Oval, the difference between Obama and Reagan is the fact that the Gipper understood economics, POTUS still believes all the academic and left wing ideology that the rich don’t make jobs, that you have to tax them, that this will help those of work and the poor. One word folks, BS, it always was, if you are rich you spend, that makes jobs, if your poor you don’t because you not sure when the next pay check is going to come from, the Democrats want to raise taxes on rich Americans. The Democrats don’t understand the Mid Term loss of the House in November, they think the voter is stupid and does not understand their high values. Lets get the truth folks, the Democrats need the voters to be poor and stupid, otherwise they join the Communists in the dustbin, that is the dirty secret of the Democrats folks, they need people to be poor, no chance, and angry, that says more about the Democrats than the voter.
Woolas OUT - By Election in New Year = 1st of Coalition Government
BBC News: Reports that Phil Woolas a former Labour Minister has lost his Appeal against losing his Seat in the House of Commons due to laying about his opponent in the UK General Election of 2010. This is the first type of this kind of case in over a hundred years folks, Mr Woolas is finished in UK politics and now we move on to a by -election for the seat of Mr Woolas. This will be the first by - election of the Coalition Government, in the UK General Election of 2010 Mr Woolas kept the Seat by about hundred votes, the Lib Dems were second and the Conservative Party was third. Thus according to the Coalition Government the Parties will go their separate ways for the by-election, thus the Labour Party should have an easy win. Lets see if after the Labour wins the Coalition decides to have one candidate in further elections, the Coalition vote will be split their vote thus allowing an easy win for Ed Miliband, and lets be honest folks Mr Miliband could do with a win, not a great time for young “ Red - Brutus “ Miliband, his Party is thinks they have the wrong Miliband as leader and David Cameron the Coalition PM is showing great form against Miliband at Prime Minister Questions. Thus after the election Mr Miliband will be stronger in the Labour Party and the Coalition Government will need a strategy for future by - elections.
