Yesterday the Obama administration has decided to exempt Yemen and three other countries that use child soldiers from U.S. penalties under the 2008 Child Soldiers Prevention Act. The officail statement came from Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. The bottom line is President Barack Obama determined it is in the national interest of the United States to waive application of the law to Chad, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan and Yemen. This of course has bad timing as everything this white house touches as we find there is a suspected threat in the airports today from Yemen. The law would cut off military aid to those four countries; the law was signed by President George W. Bush shortly before he left office but did not take effect until this year. There were officials and experts all over the talking head show today saying Yemen has three times the Al-Qaeda forces that are in Afghanistan. The timing of all of this can not be stranger and in the past a terror attack usually is a help to the incumbents. We have a feeling this is a brave new electorate and they are more of the understanding that the only term limits are elections and it is time to use them.

President Bush can claim another win in the liberation of Iraq. Everyone wants to forget the horror that the Hussein regime. Today finally the international face of Saddam Hussein’s regime, Tariq Aziz, was sentenced to death by hanging for persecuting Shiites just over three months after the Americans transferred him to Iraqi government custody. The Iraqi High Tribunal spokesman did not say when the 74-year-old former foreign minister would get the noose but Aziz has 30 days to appeal which is more than his administration ever gave anyone. The left has used this war to their advantage and shaped the conversation to fit it. First it was a war for oil, when we did not take oil, it was because of revenge for his father, and then it was we went to war with no exit strategy. History will show it was a war based on stopping weapons of mass destruction but in the end it was about freedom as clearly what Iraq wanted. Iraq has executed a number of high-profile members of Saddam’s regime. There may never be closure and it may never have been the right thing. The truth when the books of time look back they will see a ruthless dictator was taken from power and the super power that did it had no agenda and held no quarter for the payment. These are the things that kill liberals and why they hate when everyone in the world says Ronald Reagan killed the Soviet Union admitting these things are tough pill to swallow, it is hard when you choke on the truth.

President Barack Obama playing both sides of the fence and confusing many. On one hand he says he sees opportunities to work with the GOP after Election Day. Then in the next sentence claims if the republican wins enough seats their will be gridlock. This is the same politician who ran for the White House promising a new era of bipartisanship. This has never happened as he has spent the last two years blaming President Bush and Republicans for every thing that he cannot fixed with his bad ideas. The latest polls shows that 84 percent of likely voters say that they are frustrated by politics and 81 percent say they have been disappointed with their expectations. The best part is this poll also says 61 percent of likely voters believe the GOP will win control of Congress in the midterm election, with most of those voters believing Republican victories would be a good thing for the country. If the congress can flip at least we can have the rest of the year off as lame duck pols never do anything. This president has spent the last two years, making excuses, running around the nation campaigning, leaving big plan to legislatures and not being accountable. We have thought this administration has closest to the President Carter presidency and hopefully will be one and done like the peanut farmer.

President Obama is finally understanding that it is not only congress that has its fate, balancing on his policy, it affects him as well. Reports out of the White House they are preparing for political life after a bruising election, the President will put greater importance on fiscal discipline, does this means we are heard all the way up in the ivory tower? The electorate has been screaming for months about out of control spending. Since he will only have two years left and begin working without a super majority the smart thing to do is focus on deficit reduction, education and energy. He will have to stand up for his health care and financial overhauls and try to protect them from repeal. The smart thing to do is send the olive branch right away and extend Bush-era tax cuts that expire at year’s end. There will be a need for a more serious focus on how to balance the federal budget and pay for the programs that keep making the country further into debt. The only good news is when you see these reports from the White House and the President Obama staff you realize they know people are fed up with federal spending; particularly as unemployment remain so high.

When you want to be the police for the world and a super power it is truly thankless. There are many reasons we could pick but when we hared that Russia is complaining that the United States has not acted on information the top Russian anti-drug official provided about many narcotics laboratories in Afghanistan. Russia has an estimated over two million opium and heroin addicts. For their part NATO has asked Moscow to contribute to the war effort in Afghanistan by training more counternarcotics agents and providing helicopters to the Afghan government’s air force. This has not happened and using other countries Intel you do not have confirmed on your own is tricky business. The bigger issue is before Russia calls use out there is the issue that after the fall of the Soviet Union there are many missing suitcase bombs that contain nuclear weapons. We think they should focus on that and leave drug enforcement to others. This is the problem with being world police and stuck in a country you hope to straighten out and leave. Diplomacy is needed and when you have back seat drivers trying to steer policy it only makes matters more confusing and convoluted.

It seems like every 12-18 months we get to write this post. The post office is trying again to get a rate increase next year. The folks over at snail mail are appealing to the Postal Regulatory Commission after the rejection of the latest requested increase. If you did not know the post office asked for a two cent increase to make a First Class stamp 46 cents starting in January. Our favorite part is the reason for the increase is to compensate for increasing losses caused by a drop in mail volume as a result of the weak economy, and a shift in communications and bill paying to the Internet. It does not take having too much on the ball to realize if there is a drop in mail volume and more people are bill paying bills on the Internet, why do you need to charge more. If you are doing less work why should we pay more for the service? According to the post office, the rate increase would generate about $2.3 billion in added revenue. This is needed as the post office is facing a $6 billion loss and has cut staff, taken steps to close offices and asked Congress for permission to reduce mail delivery to five days a week. We think it is time to cut more staff, close more offices and realize it is a dinosaur industry.

The campaign trail continues for Luke Skywalker. We watched this week which started with the president calling the Republicans the evil Empire from the Empire Strikes Back. We heard him say the Republican drove the country into the ground using a clunker reference. It does not stop their and to make you even sicker President Barack Obama is taking his campaign message to “The Daily Show” with Jon Stewart. He is not going to do the show live as President Obama is taping an appearance on Oct. 27, just days before the Nov. 2 elections. The liberal elite and lam stream media are going out of their minds as Left Wing Looney Stewart is coming to Washington next week for the “Rally to Restore Sanity” he is holding three days later on Saturday, Oct. 30, on the National Mall. President Obama recently endorsed Stewart’s event. It will be the president’s first appearance on Stewart’s program. It is amazing the shock and horror the left is feeling, we love the lame stream media as they know the polls are usually correct and the news is not going their way. It is amazing the shambles the democrats have made of themselves in only 20 months. It is further hard to believe that the lame streamers need to only look in the mirror and wonder how they let it slip away.
