Ahmadinejad is a goner!!

Mahmoud President Ahmadinejad, President of Iran, Holocaust denier, and Anti-American Conservative have been challenging Israel, United States, and the West since he was elected in 2005. United States accuse Iran of secretly trying to develop nuclear weapons and helping Shiite militias in Iraq that target U.S. troops. Iran denies the claims and claims that Iran is seeking materials to develop a nuclear generator for electricity. Just before leaving for New York, Ahmadinejad had the Iran army parade down the street with Missile that read, “Down with the U.S.” Iran President Ahmadinejad rips U.S. - Yahoo!

The Iran headace

On my September 22 post of 2007, I predicted that Iran President Ahmadinejad would be voted out of office. Now the election has turned in to front page news not because Ahmadinejad lost, but because of possible election fraud.
I didn't pay attention to the election until recently when I heard on the radio that the government blocked facebook because Ahmadinejad's opponents was using it to communicate with each other. So now in post-election Iran, there's protest in the streets of the country because people did not get a fair chance to participate in the election. I urge you to read Scott Peterson's article from the Christian Science Monitor on how the election was rigged. He reports that an election official are being investigated for irregularities.
What we can learn from this that we need to pay attention to international news more. Depending on on who's the next president is, it could change the relations between the United States and Iran. Have links to international news on the right and I urge you to read them.
On the Domestic front, I am circulating a city wide ballot initiative city wide ballot initiative to decriminalize marijuana. Go to Greenliberty.us to find out more about this petition. I'm an advocate for legalization of marijuana because it a waste of law enforcement resources to follow th status quo.

Obama is going to take us to World War III

"Let me make this clear," Obama said. "There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al-Qaida leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf will not act, we will." Obama's stupid speech Ooooo, tough talk, but very unpresidential. In fact, it sounds like something that you’ll read from a campus news paper than a presidential candidate. Does Obama-Clown know that Afghanistan is a landlocked country and we have to flay of over Pakistan to get to Afghanistan? I bet he doesn’t even know where the county is.
Look at the map and learn about the region. You Afghanistan and Pakistan to the south. We can get to Pakistan by sea, but we have to fly over Pakistan to Afghanistan. Pakistani President Musharraf is allowing us fly over his country over the objections of his own people.
Now lets see what would happen if we attack Pakistan. First, Pakistan would fight back. So now we have to fly our troop over Pakistani’s rockets to get to Afghanistan. Since Pakistan is shooting at us, we shoot at Pakistan. Second, seeing this, India will side with us. India has been at odds at Pakistan over the region of Kashmir, so if India wins a war against Pakistan, India takes Pakistan. Third, Iran will side with Pakistan. Fourth, Israel bomb Iran. Israel, Pakistan, India, and the United States have nukes. Whether Iran have them or not, this would be the start of Nuclear War/World War III. Fortunately, there are other candidates in the Democrat Primary Democrats can choose from. No Republican in the Republican Primary is this stupid.

What is you state doing to fight terrorism.

To day I'm proud to say that my state treasurer, Sarah Steelman, is playing her role in the war against terror. She is cutting of state funds that is doing business with terror groups.

Steelman's Terrorism-Free Investment Policy Spreading to Other StatesSunday, June 10, 2007, 6:04 PMBy Steve WalshAn anti-terrorism idea that State Treasurer Sarah Steelman (R-MO) started in Missouri is spreading throughout the country, and Steelman is doing her part to spread the word. It's an effort to cut off the billions of dollars currently invested in companies that are doing business with countries engaged in terrorist activities.Steelman's movement, which began in Missouri, has taken her to Capitol Hill in Washington where she has testified before a U.S. House committee. And, it's taking root in a number of states, including California, where the State Assembly recently voted to bar that state employees' retirement system and its state teacher retirement system from investing in companies involved with Iran. Steelman isn't surprised with the growing support for the idea.The U.S. State Department bars investment in terrorism-sponsoring countries like Iran, Sudan, Syria, and North Korea - but Americans are still investing billions of dollars through international companies that are doing business with those countries. A lot of that money is in public pension funds, which prompted Steelman to create the first terrorism screening and divestment policy.

54 % says give the surge a chance!!!

When asked, “Given that 8 out of 18 bench marks are met, what should America do?,” 54% responded give the surge a chance, 36% says set a time to withdraw, 18% wants partition, and 9% wants other. Gen. David Petraeus is expected to give his progress report next month. Following his report, there will be another we poll.
The surge has reduce the violence in Bagdad, but the violence spreaded to other parts the country surge result A treaty Between Iraq and Syria could bring the violence could be going down in other parts of the country as well Iraq's/Syrian border pact Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki and their Syrian counterparts signed an agreement last Tuesday to bolster security along the border, which US military officials say is the crossing point for most of the foreign fighters in Iraq. Now let’s see if Maliki can make the same deal with Iran. If he can, the surge in Bagdad, along with both border pacts, could bring down the violence in Iraq.
This military solution could buy time for political solution. Please join me in showing support for President Maliki, our troops, our allies, and our mission to reduce the violence in Iraq and providing peace in the Middle East.
