It seem to me that Mr. Putin is the one jumping back into the Cold War. He has made Syria a proxy state conflict. He is arming Iran a surrogate with all the modern Russian weapons. He is the one that want a 1000 new high tech aircraft...including stealth. New nuclear subs....new ICBMs....
So?
Either the west rebuilds our militaries or we let Putin back Iran's play for nucs? What will it be? I say we draw line in the Iran sand so deep, that Khatenie and Ahmendinejada both can fall in and the bull dozer covers them both up......I don't care if the line is drawn with the Isreali...with the Brits....with NATO ...or the man in moon.
If Putin wants to play in Iran. Make it so costly to him....that the Russian people will vote him out. He only can have one more term anyways. Russia has term limits. But that does not mean his apprentice Mr Medvedev cannot have another Presidency. Let them send 5 divisions to Syria and 5 divisions to Iran. To back the worlds worse dictators. The Russian people will get the idea.
This after wikileak....after Dr. Alfridi....after the SEAL Team 6 shot down....after the leaking bug attack on Iran's centrifuges.....after the Fast and Furious cover up.....
Just remove all DEMs from political office..... send them back for reeducation.....
This is one chilling account of Sean Smith that died that night. In it he says that they had seem people (his Libyan security) taking photo of consulate and he wondered if he was going to die that night.
About this time Sept 4th, Netanhyu is trying to set up a meet with Obama. But by Sept 11th Obama has denied it.
The Benghazi attack happens about this Tues evening phone call time.
I don't know what was said in the phone call...only Obama and Netanhyu do. But someone gave that Isreali newpaper a leaked story of coming attacks on the US. I doubt some Egyptian newspaper would do it. My connect the dots would say it is the Israeli government did it.
LOL...Remember when Netanyhu wanted to talk with the President of the United State...and he was to busy to meet....and had to go to the View?
Netanhyu leaked it to a UK newspaper a few days after Obama refused to meet with him that the Isreali had intell of 911 strike. But there was other net chatter about a 911 attack.
Let me give you the facts then. The Nunn/Lugar agreement....which the Russian will not extend....included a clause that would keep either country from targeting the other with their nucs.
BUT....both have programmable nuclear system....that can be targeted in less than a hour time. We think we can target them a bit faster than the Russians....that don't have the computer systems that we do. Some here say...in 20 minuted. So double that for the Russians.
Unless this was included in the new START agreement....once Nunn/Lugar lapses next year, Russia is free to target their new nuc on anyone. Most likely on your Europe and my US.
Ligit Presidents murder 30,000 of their own people without due process, Boban? As some point you lose ligitimacy. For each of us that is likely at a different point. But with 30,000 dead Syrian Sunni, many consider Assad to have reached his point.
It is not just him. But his Assad's father as well. He crushed a Sunni rebellion decades earlier. I think that the number of dead there was from 10 to 15,000.
The last election that Assad ran was a joke. It was a election on the Syrian constitution, did not even have him on the ballot. If the majority Sunni been given a chance, they would have voted him out of the office.
Russia outsources the manufacture of weapons as well.
Hugo Chavez bought two AK-47 plants from Russia several years ago. Most all of the Russian military industrial complex ....patents...machining...entire plants....was for sale after the Communist fall in the early 1990s.
Russia just announced it will not extend the US Nunn/Lugar agreement on nuclear weapons. The US had been paying Russia....about 3b per year for the destruction and security of Russian nuclear weapons.
So says a guy that is arming Assad in the Syrian civil war and has exported more Ak-47 by guys like the merchant of death Blout than anyone else in the world.
Now with two of the Liberal media moderators totally blowing the concept of a fair debate.....it is clear that several parties from the FOX network should be placed into the debate moderator jobs for 2016.
Fine...Hannity is to REP and Conservative afigure for such a role. Even say OReilly is to far to the right. But come on! Candy Crowley....a CNN....reporter who wedding Obama attended? That is liberal media bias.
Greta Van Susteren comes to mind as a good choice to moderate from FOX. So does Bret Baier a white house correspondant would do a good job at the table.
That liberal media has to place a liberal moderator at the table is like liberal academia that has to have libard at the chalk board. It show a certain disrespect for the mid road rights and IND Americans that are the countries majority.
Well things are changing in Hollywood. REP are coming back into the mainstream in tinsel town.
Maybe the liberal bias in academia and in media will find that if you misrepresent the majority in the country long enough....you to can lose your job.
Another middle eastern country broke into violence....this time Lebanon....that had been relatively quiet for 2 decades. This over the bombing and death of a Lebanon intell officers.
Now just a little dot connecting.....the last man to meet with Amb Stevens on the 911 was.....a unidentified government official from Lebanon.
So you have the man that connected the dot to PM Raferkiti bombing....and pinned it on Assad and Syria...being killed. Following the death of Amb Stevens at the hands of a alQeada group that had aid from 'outside parties'.
And now Lebanon breaks out in violence.....
Maybe it is just me.....but I think "some how" the dots connect.
That is funny!! No one to blame anymore. Not GWB....not the Congress....not the pesky REP......not the Tea Party......not the FOX Network.....not broken Washington......I do think we are running out of excuses here.
Reality time has come to President Obama and liberals.
It has gotten out of hand....robot calls....we must have gotten 15 political robot calls a day here. Mailers....yesterday I pulled at least 10 political mailer from the box. TV Commercials..... 6 out of 7 TV Commercials are political. Most are negative.
The first party that says no to such mass political advertising, will win the hearts and minds of the American people for a long time. But neither have the courage to do it.
Don't the two political parties understand that they are hurting the American quality of life? With this mass political advertising? Someone surely had had to whispered that in their ear at some point.
Just drive to town going thru what normally are pleasant suburbs with nicely trimmed yards....is now a field of political signage. You can see the were the battle lines are drawn when you pass a Obama sign in one yard and a Romney sign in the next. Think that these two families sat down recently and had a BBQ or party together? Watched a football game? Or the baseball championships? Likely Not.
Those two political signs out in front have kept them apart likely.
At heart, politics is about competing. It is race to gain support and votes to hold office. But when you adversely effect millions of your fellow country men to achieve that goal......something it wrong.
But rather than make the competition a side issue to being American democratic process....today's politics is to make the competition and difference the issue.
This is exactly what our forefathers wanted to avoid with the creation of the electoral college. That was to take the political division from the people and place it into a electoral body. So whether you voted one or another.....you were still a American with the rights of the country extended.
The in power party would not come back to you the voter....to pressure you for casting your vote a certain way. But today they get to you before the election. By advertising campaigns that are divisive and polarizing. By giving you a free sign to place in your yard...and share your support for one candate or another.
Our politician have to wise up. Negative campaigning today is loathed by Americans. Robot calls that wake people during sleep at 3 am.....yes several times....are not going to win you votes. Filling a voter's trash bin with mailers only shows him that you like to spend money for postage.
I know your campaign manager and your media manager have all these numbers on political advertising to show you. The only number that matters at the end of a election....is the votes. When you hurt the quality of life of the voter, eventually he will hurt your chance for election.
These kind of test matter little to President Obama...who was trying to trade US warhead entry speeds....so that Russia could have better anti missile defenses in case of a nuclear war between the two country.
Ohio is going to be a key battle ground state. But has Obama auto bailout really help the state? Or was it placing of a REP governor in the 2010 mid term election that have brought the state unemployment down?
The Obama administration called this a work place violence. Even though Major Hassan was yelling Ala Ackbar has did it.
Victimed police officers, soldiers and family have a made a uTube video asking the administration to change its definition of the event.
The victims have been denied a service medal....the Purple Heart....because the award to has be to wound be sustained in combat. If the administration changes the definition of the event, to being a terrorist attack.....then logically the service medal can be awarded.
US intelligence agency knew month prior to the attack that Major Hasan had made contact with alQeada alAwalkie. Why the administration did not force him from military has never been explained to anyone satisafaction.
Like Libya, the Fort Hood shooting could have halted if the administration existed in the White House that was more concerned about the welfare of the American service man, instead of the sensitivities of Islam.
Scratch that then. We are back to one agreement.....
How is that President Obama doing in stopping that non civil war in Syria? I know....just wait....the enlightened one that could not see Libya coming after multiple warnings.....will just snap his fingers and the UN will rush back in with peace keepers.....
He better figure a way to place Russia and China between those fingers when he snaps them. Or else it ain't going to happen.....
We just came to out second agreement in 4 years of bloggin.
I do agree nations want to war. So I want our people in the fastest, most battle ready ship on the Ocean....the titamium hulled ship is just that. I want a singe US Navy ship out there that will make the entire Spanish Armada turn tail and run.....
RE: THE President Actually! Preisdent Obama or President Romney?
Sure. So they have to attack the messenger. Only the messenger was carrying all communications that were done by DEMs in office.
