End of the Reagan Era ?

The New Republic: Interesting article that tries but no cigar to say that the Reagan Era is over, as long as Reagan and his movement is remembered its never over, that's the part the elite media never understood at the time and still have hard time with, but a worthy attempt in the article. Must Read of the Day.

Obama's Pastor Redux

The past two days, last night and today shows why the Revered Wright is a problem for Obama. Last night in a speech he seemed to this teacher to be suggesting that African - American students should be taught separately from White Students. The theory being based on research that shows that the two cultures learn in a different method, as I teacher I take great offence at this view of teaching. Students white, black or any colour behave well or not in the same fashion, the point of the USA is that it is a melting point of all cultures. Today he called the USA a terrorist nation, thus 9/11 was the fault of the United States. Obama needs to disavow this man or he wont get the nomination or he might win but in the General Election he will go down to a Walter Mondale style defeat.

Mad Men

One of the best dramas on the goggle box at the moment. Is there a second series?

Torture and the CIA

Torture: Here we go again, the LIBERAL New York Times cares more about the rights of terrorists than the safety of its own citizens. We live in 24 show world, CIA agents like Jack Bauer have to do what they have to do to protect the American People. Simple story line for the Times to think about, a dirty bomb is going to off in New York, the Field Agent has one hour to prevent an attack, does he or her just take name and cell number or does he or her do what has to be done to protect the American People. He or her does what needs to be done, and we thank god that he or her does what we don't need to know about and would find hard to do, he or her does his or her job. I wish the Times would grow a back bone, and recall we are the good guys, have my doubts they are to far gone, frak them I am sorry to say, and a hail to the CIA, MI6 for doing what has to be done for Western Security.

Obama On Fox

Fox News Sunday: Reports that Obama has stated no more debates with Hillary Clinton, wise move Senator.

The Schweiker Solution ?

Lets use our crystal ball and lets see a solution to the Democratic Mess. In this we have the great book, Reagan's Revolution, The Untold Story of the Campaign that started it all, by Craig Shirley. Clinton is behind in the delegate count, Obama is ahead by over a hundred and thirty delegates at last count, so what does Clinton do, so far the seems to be going for debates, Obama by the last measure should say no to further debates. Thus we have an another solution for Team Clinton, select a VP running mate now, as the Reagan team did, select a Obama Super Delegate, if he was African - American it would be better, some military of foreign policy experience, to the left of her on some issues, thus give her cover with liberals but centre on Foreign Policy and the Military. The Question why do this, lets give it as a given that both candidates come out of the next rounds of elections about even, Obama ahead by about a hundred and thirty and at the popular vote level a few hundred thousand. Clinton has argued that Florida and Michigan should be counted in the vote count, in Michigan Obama was not on the voters list, and in Florida he did not Campaign. Thus this arguments is rubbish to be honest, it called stealing elections in my book.

Thus Hillary Clinton has to get in front of this lead, make Obama select his running mate, he will have to choose someone to his right, not easy and the Party will find it hard to take, but he needs to do that, cant have to two liberals on the ticket, sure fire lose voter. The Clinton Machine has to get the Super Delegates to see that Reagan Democrats will only vote for her, and that Obama has became the African - American Candidate, and it sad to say the USA is not ready for its first black President, a post racial black President yes, but Obama's pastor and his own mistakes has made him the a Liberal African - American Candidate for President not a candidate who happens to be black, harsh but true. Thus the time for the Schweiker solution.
