What is going on with that?

What is going on with that?

This week Mahmoud Ahmadinejad will be at the U.N. to attend the United Nations General Assembly meeting. He is scheduled to speak two times. This week, we will hear about Iran’s quest for nuclear energy being peaceful and that the rumors of
Nuclear weapons development is unfounded. What’s going on with that?

We will be hearing that he is meeting with intellectuals and members of the world wide press. Turkey has now developed a huge trade relationship with Iran, while Russia and China now have built significant trade credits. These are all disturbing developments for our nation and the free world. Hillary Clinton said last week that, “I have grave reservations about the Islamic Revolution.”

Our Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, is powerless to enforce the sanctions that have been in place for at least four years and there are no high level meetings set for Ahmadinejad’s visit. While our President was campaigning, didn’t he run on the platform of open negotiations with no preset conditions? Didn’t he say that a nuclear armed Iran would not stand? Didn’t he say that sanctions would drive the Iranians to the bargaining table? Didn’t he say he was the one that could bridge the gap with understanding and openness? What’s going on with that?

Any question of Iran’s nuclear program and their support for terrorism around the world will be down played by our press and the world press. Any questions of how the Iranian government is treating dissidents will be down played by the press again. We will hear about Ahmadinejad’s quest for peace and about how Iran will conduct themselves as a the Islamic leader in that that part of the world. What is going on with that?

We will see a choreographed dog and pony show and we will see how Iran skirts the issues, while speaking of peaceful outcomes, if the world would just go along with their concept of how society should be governed in the 21st century, under Islamic law.

The sanctions have not worked. Any question of a military solution is now off the table and we might have no choice but to accept a nuclear armed Iran. The question is: can they be trusted to obey the rules of the club. Our foreign policy practice of containment is the point of danger because it has given us a nuclear armed Iran. This is what you get when you have an in experienced man at the helm of the ship of state. This is what you get when you have a Secretary of State whose only purpose was to broaden her resume. This is what you get when you have intellectuals trying to rule with reason when the other side is pushing you back. What is going on with that?

We will now have to conduct ourselves in a manner of being a subordinate to Iran for at least another two years! What is going on with that?


This week we will hear more about the tea party candidates not winning in the general. We will hear about the tea party candidates being to one sided and being extreme. The Republican Party will have to make a choice either they support these candidates or run the risk of losing more in the long run than winning in the fall.

This week the tea party candidates will be in the spotlight. They will be asked questions of the press not for information but to see if they can be tripped up. This is what the Democrats will be focusing on this fall in these crucial power tipping races.

Last week, former President Bill Clinton met with the President. He told Obama that he needs to do less blaming and focus on his strengths, his accomplishments and what he intends on doing for the country. Could this advice be good or bad, what is going with that? If the president does that, he will not have anything to say. If he can’t blame anyone, then the fault rests on his shoulders. If he talks about his accomplishments, he can’t ignore the majority of Americans who want his crowning piece of legislation, healthcare, repealed. If he talks about what he wants to do for the country, it will only scare more Americans.

Is Bill Clinton really a friend of Barrack? Is Bill Clinton readying the playing field for Hillary? Bill also said that the tea party candidates and the tea party movement, in general, is creating an insurrection. This brings me back to the premise of the founding of this country.

Our founding fathers were committing an insurrection with every speech and every protest against the King and England. King George III was part of the ruling elite. Bill Clinton is part of the ruling elite, as well as his wife and the President. If we didn’t have an insurrection we would not have the Bill of Rights, our Constitution and the writings of Thomas Paine, the words of Sam Adams, Patrick Henry, Washington and Jefferson. I think you get the rest of the story. As Thomas Paine wrote;” These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”

A footnote: There are 43 days left until the midterms. If an insurrection is occurring then at least 51% of the voting public is behind it! What is going on with that?
