Update On Iran

Jun 23, 2009 - 11:06 am

Following up on my earlier posting, there are signs this morning of genuine discontent on the part of the Iranian people, to say the least.  Anyone who is willing to defy the supreme leader and face certain death in order to protest deserves respect and our prayers.
I still worry about what they are fighting for though.

Obama on Iran – Playing It Cool

Jun 23, 2009 - 10:06 am

Sunday morning, I watched the top Republican on the House Intelligence (ha) Committee in an interview, commenting on the protests and uprisings in Iran.  He speculated that the protests will spread.  That young Iranians want is free elections, more opportunities, less oppression, etc. 
I am not sure what he bases that on.  Wishful thinking?

This guy is killing me.  He just keeps pushing and pushing.  Now he says he is going to shoot a missile at Hawaii on the 4th of July.  He just can’t help himself, can he!?!

You Have To Serve Before You Can Lead

Jul 09, 2008 - 10:07 pm

Now HERE’s an interesting idea - make it mandatory that, in order to serve as President of the United States - i.e. Commander in Chief - you must have served a minimum of two years in the military.

Hmm.  Of course, I’m not talking about trying to put it into effect in the near future.  Something like this would have to be arranged for, say, ten years before it went into effect, just to make things fair.  But wouldn’t it be a huge advantage for our President to have actually served in the armed forces before he is put in charge of them?

This debate is being bandied about in political circles and the idea is apparently gaining some steam for the moment.
