…majority of them were along the line of “Yes, I agree too, but who is going to pay for it and how is it going to work?” Almost universally, the liberal responses were either “The Rich,” or “Bring the Troops Back from Iraq and Afghanistan.” I then realized that most thinking from Liberals is not based upon logic. In fact, from these responses, it appears liberal thinking is idealist and based upon emotion. This has been argued in the past by both …

… seemed on the superficial level to offer continuity, it was actually an ideological reversal, back to the Liberal wing of the Republican Party. Though he lambasted his opponent Michael Dukakis, tarring him with the “Liberal” label, which Reaganism had turned into a dirty word, Bush himself was every bit a Progressive. His admitted trouble with “the vision thing” prevented him from continuing with Reagan’s unfinished work: shrinking government, e…

…day that President, Hamid Karzai, is afraid to leave the security of his palace and is constantly denying charges that his administration is corrupt. P.S. It is. In 2002 the U.S. had approximately 5,200 boots on the ground in Afghanistan. Today we’re closer to 32,000 and our generals say we need more. Before they decide to send more troops or not the present administration wants to “re-evaluate the situation”. Sound familiar? It should. Remember …

…ent has proposed total global nuclear disarmament which no one has taken seriously and we have finally joined with the rest of the world to find a way we can all live with global warming. We’re still fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the US installed government in Iraq is so corrupt it makes Chicago politicians look like saints. I thought the Nobel Prize was given for positive results in the area of peace not for just trying to get those …

…dia in the United States, none of the Russian government officials shake his hands. In fact, they snub him. Pakistan came very close to falling to the Taliban and is still fighting them off. That was not a typo, Pakistan, not Afghanistan. We have increased our presence in Afghanistan, but we still can not make any inroads. In fact, the past few months in Afghanistan have been the bloodiest from an American standpoint in years. The Taliban grows s…

President Obama has made it very clear that he intends to pursue the war against the Taliban in Afghanistan. In fact, he is basically following the Bush era policy in that regard and is effectively, recreating the Bush surge that turned the tide in Iraq. However, the members of the Taliban do not seem to care and do not seem to be alarmed by this. Why? It is very simple. The Taliban has decided that Afghanistan is just a pawn in their little gam…

…is a good possibility some form of a Bill will be passed within the next 3 months what it will look like is anyone’s guess. Chances are it will be tied up in the courts for years only to be repealed by the next GOP president. Afghanistan…First we were winning so we pulled troops from there to fight the evil doers in Iraq. Now we’re not winning so we are “Thinking” about sending more troops back in. Meanwhile US soldiers die every day while the ad…

STRAW #3 – The war in Afghanistan rates a straw too. First we’re winning, now we’re not, but if we want to start winning again we need to send in more troops….forty thousand more troops. Weeks have passed without a decision from the Administratio…

…when the Prime Minister of Israel met with President Obama, this matter must have been discussed. However, Obama has not done anything. Israel’s patience should be wearing thin. The Taliban continues to gain territory in both Afghanistan and Pakistan. The current administration better react soon. At some point, no matter how much is done; it will be too little, too late. The Pakistani government will fall and there will not only be a power base f…

…dle East. Turkey is turning their back on the West. Our relationship with Israel is a complete mess, and the Israeli-Palestine relationship is worse than ever. Iran is in a stronger position than when Obama took office and Afghanistan policy is in tatters. On the positive ledger, Khaddify is dead along with Osama Bin Laden; so gains have been made but the possible loss of Egypt as a dependable ally to outright enemy and Obama’s mishandling of…
