Oh my it has been over a year since my last post. I have been so busy moving my new pet from California and getting her situated here.
In reference to the title of this post, the presidential election is over and my "man" was a woman and no she didn't. It appears the USA is "not ready for a woman as president".
Well of course not!
A woman as president would not accept mediocre performance of her cabinet members. She would make sure each of her staff did there jobs correctly and efficiently. A woman would reason with heads of state instead of making threats. Women are perfectionists and would not tolerate the status quo in Washington.
Hell if they elected a woman as president it would be GAME OVER!! Washington bureaucrats would have to actually work!

IRAQNAM Are we the Terrorists now?
Anyone who fails to see that the current "War" in Iraq is another version of the Vietnam conflict fails to see the simple truth that both conflicts were/are un winnable.
What should happen to a country who invades another country and executes the Head of that Government? I would say they didn't deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, to say the least! You don't succeed fighting terrorism with terrorism. At this writing there are laws that allow the government of the US to arrest anyone they want, under the name of "national security" , and prevent them due process. This is ,simply put, a police state at that point! Who is it that determines if the denial of rights is in the interest of national security? It is the very persons who make the arrest. This puts absolute power in the hands of the executive branch which prevents the checks and balances provided by the US Constitution with the separation of powers.
The US lost the war in Vietnam and there is no possible way to "WIN" the war in Iraq! Are we taking over the country? NO! Are we occupying the country? YES! Will we be able to convert the Iraq people to our way of government by using deadly force? NO! Is it normal for people of a country to resist an occupying force? YES!
No matter what the US Military does in Iraq, they have to leave sometime. What will happen then? Like any civilization it will reach some equilibrium. That equilibrium will be reached by a balance of those who would take power and those who will accept being governed by that power.
After the US leaves there will be a continuation of the civil war that was caused by the removal of Iraq's government. Even if the US will not admit they installed a government in Iraq, the remainder of the world sees that is exactly what happened! The very fact that the US installed government in Iraq cannot stand on its own, with out US help, proves it is not a government from the "grass roots" of Iraq.
Will we ever understand that we cannot ever win someone else's war? I am not saying that the result in Iraq, after withdrawal of US troops, would be in Iraq's best interest. What I am saying is that the presence of US troops is postponing the inevitable. Unless we actually take over the country and govern it ourselves we cannot win the war. To do that we would have to wage a war of Biblical proportions meaning we would have to be willing to kill anyone or anything that got in the way. That is not US. That is not what we do! (at least not on purpose).
Another thing to ponder is this. As the world passes us by making investments here and producing more than we do. As the rest of the world produces better educated graduates than we are. Does it make you wonder why? Just look at where we spend our money compared to other countries. Its the old "guns and butter" philosophy. We are spending our money on guns while the rest of the world is investing in butter.
Even if we stopped activities in Iraq now, we would be spending money taking care of the damages we caused for years and years to come.

The High Cost of Gas
WHY ARE GASOLINE PRICES SO HIGH?
The GAS companies have reached all time high NET profits? How can that be? I thought the high price of gas was because of the high price of oil! Actually it is due to the GREED of some high placed officials!
If the high prices were just due to the price of oil then the GROSS profits of the oil companies may be high but not the NET profits! If net profits are higher there is only one explanation and that is not the high price of oil. NO! Its just GREED plain and simple. The oil company executives are lining their pockets while the rest of us suffer by reducing food intake and medical care in order to drive to work.
Lets call it like it is. We are being robbed on a daily basis by liars, thieves, and immoral individuals who are in trusted positions.
