This and That - Part 13

There has been a lot of discussion lately about a new National Intelligence Estimate that concludes that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program about four years ago. It has given rise to another what-did-Bush-know-and-when-did-he-know-it witch hunt by the media. As if the general public is entitled to know every step the executive branch of our government takes. Can you imagine dealing with any adversary, much less the regime in Iran, by always putting all your cards on the table before negotiation begins? Do you suppose that any of the media idiots, like David Gregory, ever consider the possibility that they are being used?

Wouldn’t it be nice if we had the option of voting for none-of-the-above on all elections? And if none-of-the-above gets the most votes, none of those running would be allowed to take office? Of course you might ask, what would we do then about filling the office? My suggestion is to just leave it vacant until a new election can be held — in which none of the candidates from the previous election would be allowed to run.

Chances are that none-of-the-above wouldn’t win by a clear majority that frequently. But wouldn’t it be great when one of the candidates has to conduct a run-off campaign against none-of-the-above?

Is a President Bitch, President Diversity or President Hairspray really the best the Democrats have to offer? The one candidate, Bill Richardson, that might actually have the kind of experience needed is not even in their first tier. It seems to me that if their goal is something other than to ensure eight more years of Republican control of the White House they would offer us someone like Joe Lieberman.

Have you noticed how many twenty-somethings are passed off as experts on one subject or another on the talking-heads channels? Most of the young women are really easy on the eyes of this old man but I don’t give much weight to their opinions or those of the young men. I don’t care how bright they are or what school they’re from they don’t know that much yet.

Evidence of Iran’s Meddling in Iraq

Power Line has posted the sixteen slides used by officers in Iraq to brief the press on the evidence that Iran is supporting the insurgents and terrorists in Iraq.  Click on each thumbnail to view the slides.

The liberal media are expressing doubt that the evidence is authentic.  They apparently believe that the Bush Administration is trying to build a case for attacking Iran.  Why is it so hard to believe that Iran is meddling in Iraq?  They have made it quite clear that they want to destroy us.  And why wouldn’t they want to help their fellow Shiites?

Anyhow, we don’t have to attack Iran if they are in Iraq.  We can attack them there wherever we find them.  And when they cross the border is the best place to find them.
