Iron Lady, Margaret Thatcher, Statue Unveiled

Former British Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher, affectionately known as the Iron Lady, is being immortalized with an 8 foot (2.44m) statue of her in the British House of Commons.

Rightly so and a long time coming.

Lady Thatcher was a leader of strong principles. Once committed to a cause like true leaders such as former U.S. president Reagan and current president Bush, Lady Thatcher followed through. She ignored polls and did what was right. Where would the world be if not for her, Ronald Reagan, Lech Walesa, and former Pope John Paul's vocal confrontation of the evils of communism?

Margaret Thatcher is a role model for any person who wants to lead unlike some who would be U.S. president. Lady Thatcher stood for something and that is refreshing in comparison to a Clinton.

Lesson of History, "Never Again" ignored and forgotten

Following WWII and the Nazi atrocities, it was said that we (humanity) would learn the lessons of History. "Never again" would Jews be attacked and killed and never again would world governments allow a madman to arise in their midst and create havoc.

It seems the phrase "Never again" was forgotten.

Iranian president Ahmadenejad has promised to "...wipe Israel off of the map." He has further stated that the holocaust never happened. The world stands by while this nutcase continues stalling the naive. Stalling for time to complete his nuclear bombs and fulfill the prophesy of his extreme branch of the extreme Islam religion.

Iran will build nuclear weapons and there is nothing that can be done about it, according to an internal EU document mentioned in the attached Financial Times link.

As we already know through captured Iranian soldiers and spies in Iraq, president Ahmadenejad's public promises (Islamic nutcases and terrorists do not make threats, they make promises), and with forensic information obtained from exploded IED's in Iraq, Iraq is already at war with the United States.

The EU says there is nothing that can be done to stop Iran. This is the impotent EU that would talk to a madman. A madman, such as Ahmadenejad can only be killed or captured like Sadaam Hussein.

Thus, unless the Iranian people overthrow Ahmadenejad, war against Iran is the only solution. It is not a good solution but probably the only solution.

If we are to learn the lessons of History, Ahmadenejad must be stopped now when the costs in lives, money, and perhaps the livability of lands due to nuclear fallout is less than if we wait.

Israel has the right to exist. If we mindlessly chant slogans of "never again" without defense, then we are more foolish than those who stood by when Hitler rose to power. Neville Chamberlin was proved wrong. Now, we have many Neville Chamberlins in the Democrat Party. The Obama's, Clinton's, Gore's, Kerry's, and others are just as naive as Chamberlin but more dangerous due to modern armaments.

Stop Ahmadenejad now before it is truly too late.

Hillary proves she is a communist

Hillary the communist revealed her true self in a speech shown recently on C-Span. She said, "The Democrats know what needs to be done again (sic) we're working to push this agenda forward. The other day the oil companies reported the highest profits in the History of the world. I wanna take those profits and I want to put those profits in a strategic energy fund that will begin to fund alternative smart energy. Alternative and (sic) technology that will begin to actually move us towards energy independence."

Hugo Chavez was rightfully denounced (although the Democrat Party was silent) for nationalizing the oil companies in Venezuela. "Taking" profits, funds, or money from a company and redistributing these monies is socialism, at best, and communism at worst.

Hillary and company seem to be doing their best to help terrorists. If the terrorists win in Iraq, they will control a large source of oil and so oil profits will substantially reduce for legitimate companies. Thus, Hillary will not have funds to "take."

What is "smart energy?" Answer: smart energy, along with any word with the word, "smart" preceding the word is a deliberately vague term that a politician will use to fool non-smart people. Believe anything with "smart" in it as used by a politician at your own peril (and pocketbook).

Do we really want a politician to "take" any company's profits? Profits are re-invested in the company for growth and / or sent to shareholders in the form of dividends and / or increased share prices as a reward for their risks in buying the stock. Taking profits from a successful company is all risk and since there is no reward for the shareholder or the company, the taking of profits is bad for business and bad for an economy.
