The EU and Greece

BBC News: Reports a EU meeting on Greece has been cancelled due to the fact that Greece has not given firm assurances on its Austerity plan in the view of the EU. Folks lets be real here, and honest, the EU does not trust Greece for one minute, it does not want to give them the 145 billion Euro bailout and find out that Greece comes back for more, and Greece will come back for more, there is a General Election in Greece in April, what happens if a new government disowns the agreement between the EU and the previous Government. Or worse a far right Government takes over and defaults anyway, this would mean that the EU would have thrown 145 billion Euros down the toilet. The EU is hoping that Greece will do Greece and the EU a favour and walk away from the Euro, otherwise Greece will back again with its begging bowl against for more billions, it will never end folks.

Once Upon A Secret by Mimi Alford

Have just finished the autobiography of Mimi Alford, a girlfriend of President John F. Kennedy from 1962 in till his death in 1963. I quote my previous comments on this book , “ This story will not add glory to the myth that was Camelot, quite the reverse, it will just confirm in modern terms that Kennedy was a sex addict, also how much the Washington Press covered up for him during his Presidency. On the other hand when Americans are asked who was the greatest President, its always between Kennedy and Reagan, both have their merit, but Reagan was the greatest for his eight years as President, while Kennedy was great for not invading Cuba in 1962 and doing a secret deal with the USSR to trade missiles in Turkey for those in Cuba. ..Lets just say Kennedy was very liberal when it comes to personal relationships, the article shows a President with no boundaries about personal actions and leading others astray. What is it about women and powerful men and the Oval Office, at least JFK just smoked a Cuban Cigar. ” After reading the book one has to say its very well written, what jumped out for this reader was the fact that Mrs Alford was set up to be the next girlfriend for JFK, after the Director of the FBI told the President that he had to stop seeing a girlfriend, Judith Campbell Exner due to the fact that she was also the girlfriend of the Head of the Chicago Mob, there needed to be a replacement, thus Mrs Alford. The FBI warning if this blog recalls was at the end of the March of 1962, and in June of 62 there came Mrs Alford. The lead up is like connecting the dots, the three most shocking parts of the book have been well told, that JFK was the first sexual relationship for Mrs Alford, lets say JFK was not gallant or ungallant, Mrs Alford seems unable to make a judgement, she was there, we have to take her verdict on the episode. The we come to the White House pool episode, this showed the very dark sexual nature of JFK, to have Mrs Alford perform oral sex on his close aide Dave Powers and then suggesting later that Mrs Alford perform that on his brother Senator Edward Kennedy. Its one thing to read a biography that has sexual allegations, its quite another to have one of President Kennedy’s girlfriends give you a blow by blow account in many respects of their relationship. It is a must read book on the personal side of Kennedy. This blog has never accepted the idea that there is a difference between the public and private side of a politician, it tends to come from Liberals, they have to justify FDR, JFK and Bill Clinton, its not like they win that often. The JFK in Mrs Alford book has charm, but is a sex addict, with a very dark nature, it was not Camelot folks; the affair damaged Mrs Alford for years, the myth of Camelot died many years ago, this book should place a stake through it once and for all.
　
　

UK Economic OUTLOOK = NEGATIVE

Telegraph: Reports that Moody’s the Credit Agency has placed the UK’s Economy on a negative prospects, also that the UK could lose its AAA credit rating. Folks the Coalition Government has to keep to its budget cuts, it has to reform the pension benefits in the public sector, also it could be argued to keep the markets happy it should look at slashing the welfare state, start to charge for non emergency use of the NHS, cosmetic operations should be charged at the commercial rate, also those that earn about the national average should be charged for using the NHS. Those who have reached 18 should not get welfare benefits, with exceptions for those with families, and those should be told, any more additions and you lose benefits. Lets look at Greece at what happens when the system has no more money in it, the social fabric of a society can start to fall apart, time for tough action folks or face economic disaster.
