Keep Brown OUT - Bush 43

Telegraph: Reports that former Labour PM Tony Blair planned to stay beyond his 2007 leaving date due to concerns from the Bush White House at having Gordon Brown in power, in the end Brown and his allies forced Mr Blair to name his leaving date early. If this is true this will cause Mr Brown to go bonkers, one can postulate that that he will be thinking that Mr Blair should have rebuffed Bush 43 rather than plan to keep him out of power. The Labour Party will have a fit, they will see Mr Blair being more concerned about Bush 43 than the election prospects of Labour. In other words it is no great surprise that Tony Blair will be in the US for the launch of his book, every day he makes PM Eden look better before, during and after Suez.

Iraq IS on its OWN - Obama Administration

In his weekend remarks to the American People President Obama has stated the following on Iraq “ On Tuesday, after more than seven years, the United States of America will end its combat mission in Iraq and take an important step forward in responsibly ending the Iraq war… ” The sting comes with the following message to Iraq, “ …We have closed or turned over to Iraq hundreds of bases. In many parts of the country, Iraqis have already taken the lead for security….But the bottom line is this: the war is ending. Like any sovereign, independent nation, Iraq is free to chart its own course. And by the end of next year, all of our troops will be home. ”. In other words Iran move in, Obama has kept a Campaign promise, lets jump in the air and celebrate Obama selling out another ally, the Iraqi Armed Forces have stated that Iraq is not ready to take control, but Obama is more concerned about not being Bush 43 than he is about the security of Iraq and the supply of oil to the West. If Iran moves in to Iraq the blame will fall on President Obama, he has snatched victory and replaced it with defeat, in other words Jimmy Carter folks. Lets hope the Republicans take the Congress and start to place real political pressure on Obama to secure the Allies of the US, so far he has sold out Poland, Czech Republic, Israel , and presently it will be Iraq, lets hope in 2012 Obama is shown the door and is replaced by a leader, Obama has shown why Democrats can not be trusted on National Security.
　
　

Memoirs of Tony Blair

Telegraph: Reviews the forthcoming memoirs of Tony Blair. The one question Mr Blair must answer is why he didn’t sack Gordon Brown when Brown blocked him on his domestic reforms, and when he had the chance after 2005 General Election he didn’t move Brown or sack him. This will be the test of the Blair memoirs, will he be as honest as Lord Mandelson.

NHS Direct in England = OUT

BBC News: Reports that NHS Direct in England is to be scrapped due to public spending cuts, the Coalition is going with a cheaper version of the service. Although the NHS has been ring fenced by the Coalition Government it is still looking for reforms that will make the NHS more efficient and cheaper, lets be honest folks it’s the fault of Labour, they threw money in the good times but didn’t keep any money in the bank for the cold rainy days of Austerity UK.

The UK Weather + Cold and the Rain = Romans had SOCKS

Telegraph: Reports on evidence that Roman Soldiers were wearing socks while they guarded Roman Britain. The weather has not changed that much, cold, rain, one can postulate that the poor Roman coming from the Sunny weather of Italy would have had a culture hear attack after a few days in Roman Britain, the weather and the locals not that happy and once the Romans left the Roman junk was thrown out with them, but they left their shoes and traces of their socks!

On Holiday OBAMA is DOWN in POLL

Gallup: Reports on its latest daily tracking poll for President Obama, the President has a disapproval rating of 51%, while 42% of voters approve of Obama’s job performance. Even on holiday President Obama cant move the polls in his direction, the bad economic news is looking bad for the Democrats in the Mid Term 2010 Congressional Elections, between September and late October President Obama has to get his poll ratings up or he will see a Republican House and Senate in January, and they will be saying a NO a lot to the White House. This blog is coming around to the idea that President Obama might not run in 2012, like LBJ in 68 President Obama needs total love, well that not on the cards for 2010 or 2012, a ego like Obama as with LBJ might rather not face losing and getting kicked out by the voters. Obama if he will not change course could decide to strong arm Israel to accept a nuclear armed Iran, he would see that as a victory, in his mind it would be worth being a one term President.

The Miliband BROTHERS at WAR - Labour Leadership Fight

Guardian: Reports that phoney war between Ed and David Miliband for the Leadership of the Labour Party has gone hot, with each side attacking the electoral strategy of the other, Ed Miliband wants to get the core Labour vote back while David Miliband wants to get the Middle Class vote back. Labour should be ashamed of it self, two bothers fighting, Alpha Geek and Beta Geek, neither having had a real job, they are the creation of New Labour, Beta Geeek, Ed Miliband or Miliband Junior is stabbing his own brother in the back as to become Labour Leader, he has gone left, thus he supports more power to the Unions, the repeal of the Thatcher Trade Union Laws, also higher taxes. While Alpha Geek, David Miliband the ex Foreign Secretary and presently Shadow Foreign Secretary is in the Tony Blair mould, but he is weak, he had the chance to finish off PM Gordon Brown but didn’t have the guts, of the two Miliband brothers, it can be argued that David is more of the threat in the long term to the Coalition, he wants to get back the Middle Class vote that left Labour in the May General Election. One can only wonder what the founders of Labour would have thought to see the leadership of the Labour Party being between two non working class brothers, who have never had a real job, just shows how much Tony Blair destroyed old Labour.
