Blogger's Crystal Ball Allows Inference Concerning Iran

From the News

AP - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that Iran is becoming a military dictatorship, a new U.S. accusation in the midst of rising tensions with Iran over its nuclear ambitions and crack down on anti-government protesters.

Hummmmm.. I wonder what the best structure is if you are going to be fighting a war of some kind? Nations on a true wartime footing always structure this way so as to allow quick and regulated control of the machinery of war. Even in America we had the equivalent during WWI and WWII. So too, then, is this a precursor to Iran's future engagement with the west? Me thinks so.

US to Defeat Iran ...with Light Bulbs (aka Fiddling While Rome Burns)

We live in an age of insanity. Here we have the President of the US -- when North Korea is exporting nuclear technology and Iran is developing it, when Chavez is threatening to intervene in an explosive Honduran coup, when the economy is teetering (we are told) -- the President of the US is telling us what kind of light bulbs to buy! He says we are going to save 4 billion dollars a year. Right. And inflating our automobile tires will do away with the need to drill for more oil. Can there be anything more pathetic? Or dangerous?

Can't Obama turn his attention to grown-up matters? Our president reminds me of nothing more than an infantile fingerpainter who has no sense either of sound judgment or awareness of consequence, but lives in a world of imagination untested by reality. No, I mistake. His utopia has been tested by reality time and time again, but like a babe in diapers, he has no experience with it -- or is criminally negligent in denying it.
