Romney vs. Perry and ObamaCare


The Hill: Reports that Governor Perry has released a new attack ad on Governor Romney, the ad is focused on the introduction of RomneyCare, the blueprint for ObamaCare in Massachusetts. This is a weak spot for Governor Romney, ObamaCare is hated by Republican voters, the Governor to his credit has not disowned RomneyCare but has stated he would repeal ObamaCare if he elected in 2012. As the Perry Campaign is in trouble it might as well go down guns blazing, but will it be effective, the Republican and Tea Party supporters want a candidate that can defeat President Obama, they might not love Romney like they loved Ronald Reagan, but they will vote for him as they can see him beating Obama. At the end of the day the Republicans want to win.

The Elite Media and the Fox “ Scandal ”






Guardian: Reports that the company at the heart of the supposed Fox scandal gave ten thousand pounds to the Shadow Labour defence team. Having watched the news media it seems they are covering for Labour, so what if the Defence Secretary met his friend, form 1 to 100 times, there is no illegal actions is meeting a friend, also as Dr Fox stated neither he or his friend gained anything from setting up a meeting. The question is why did the Labour Shadow Defence team take ten grand for a visit, what was the point of the visit, was policy affected, how come Labour didn’t make it well known before this scandal broke. In pure political terms Labour dropped the ball on this, they had Fox on the floor nearly but this ten ground should change the story, Labour has some questions to answer, Dr Fox is not out of the woods but he is safer folks, for him to fall there needs to be a THERE THERE in this story, Labour should not throw political bombs in less they have all the facts.

Slovakian Parliament VOTE - Eurozone Crisis


Telegraph: Reports that the Slovakian Parliament could vote down the July deal on Greece, that set up the expected banking rescue fund. The July agreement needs all 17 Eurozone Countries to pass the deal, it would be ironic if small Country like Slovakia could bring down the Euro and even the EU. As this blog has some experience of the Slovak people it can be argued that they will come on board, but they will want something out of it, money in other words, at least one can respect that, the place is small and the last time this blog was there it was very under funded, thus some of those Euros that had been targeted for the banks should be sent to the Slovak Republic. The importance of the July agreement for Greece and the Euro means that the Slovaks will be forced to pass the agreement, one way or another, the EU does not much care about democracy when it comes to small countries.
 

Euro Delay - Eurozone Crisis

BBC News: Reports that the EU has delayed a planned meeting of EU leaders to discuss the Eurozone debt crisis. The Markets will be asking are the EU trying to hide disagreements over how to deal with the Euro debt crisis. The rumoured three stage plan is as follows, a bailouts of the banks, a 2-3 trillion stability fund to be funded in part by Germany and France, and finally a managed default of Greece. It was hard enough to get the 440 billion set in place, and its still needs one final Euozone Country to say yes, what are these countries going to be like when they are asked for extra billion. Also what happens if Italy and Spanish go down the toilet, how long can the European Central Bank bailout Italy, at what point to do the Italians get annoyed with the ECB telling the Italian Parliament how to run Italy. The Stock Markets in the US and the EU have gone up folks, but it seems more on hope than fact, someone is making money, but its not main street folks.
