			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>People are still protesting in Iran over the sham of an election.  People like <a href="http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1245184912229&amp;pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull">Neda</a> are dying while protesting.  Don&#8217;t get me wrong, I&#8217;m not a huge fan of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Musavi</span>.  But people should have the right to vote for their leader, and they should not be killed for protesting.</p>
<p>North Korea has nukes, and<a href="http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iURO8fOyWVOA0ytFlaAGuC9F7R9wD98T2J2O0"> according to Japan</a>, has plans to fire at Hawaii in early July.  I don&#8217;t think that those are the kind of fireworks we want on Independence Day.</p>
<p>ABC will air an <a href="http://drudgereport.com/flashaot.htm"><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">ObamaCare</span> infomercial </a>tomorrow night, and the Republicans or anyone with an opposing viewpoint is <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">explicitly</span> not invited.  So much for unbiased media reporting.  They aren&#8217;t even trying to hide it anymore.</p>
<p>California is bankrupt, and instead of cutting some massive pork projects, they&#8217;re <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2009/06/23/BUN418BJU3.DTL">cutting tax exemptions</a> and <a href="http://www.mercurynews.com/ci_12481195">closing state parks</a>.</p>
<p>Several people were killed in a <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090623/ap_on_re_us/us_dc_metro_train_derailment">DC train crash</a>.</p>
<p>And Perez Hilton got <a href="http://www.craveonline.com/entertainment/music/article/perez-hilton-punched-by-black-eyed-peas-tour-manager-79531">punched in the face</a>.</p>
<p>At least one thing in the news this week made me smile!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Remember that warning from gaffe-tastic VP Biden during the 2008 election?</p>
<p>Can we safely say that the President is being tested, and he definitely made the cutoff. It&#8217;s only been five months. Predictably and unfortunately, he doesn&#8217;t seem to be passing at the moment.</p>
<p><strong>From Iran-</strong><br /><strong></strong><br /><a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090614/D98QEBJG2.html">President Mahmoud </a>Ahmadinejad won re-election in a landslide, a feat which US officials say is, <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2009/06/13/senior-us-official-yes-the-iranian-election-was-rigged/">&#8220;not credible.&#8221;</a> The Iranian government tried to shut down communication between its citizens to prohibit them from organizing protests, but it didn&#8217;t matter. The people are protesting, riots are erupting, and people are dying.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/06/13/iran-demonstrations-viole_n_215189.html">Biden commented this morning</a>-</p>
<p>
<blockquote>Vice President Joe Biden says he has doubts about whether Iran&#8217;s presidential election was free and fair, as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad claims from his landslide victory.</p>
<p>Biden says the U.S. and other countries need more time to analyze the results before making a better judgment about the vote. He says the administration&#8217;s interests are the same as they were before the vote &#8212; ending Iran&#8217;s attempts to develop a nuclear weapon and its support for terrorism.</p>
<p>The vice president says he&#8217;s disturbed by the way the Iranian government seems to be suppressing speech and cracking down on crowds protesting Ahmadinejad&#8217;s re-election.</p>
<p>Biden says there are lots of questions about the election, but that the U.S. doesn&#8217;t have enough facts to make a fair judgment. He wonders whether the outcome is an accurate response of the Iranian people.</p></blockquote>
<p>Well, I&#8217;m glad that the administration is &#8220;looking into&#8221; the obviously rigged election that kept in power a man that hates Americans, and to whom our President gave the go ahead to <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104891406">persue nuclear power</a>. As long as, you know, they promised not to make weapons out of it. <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSEVA14340720090614?sp=true">After his bogus re-election:</a></p>
<p>
<blockquote>
<p>Ahmadinejad consigned Iran&#8217;s nuclear dispute to the past, signaling no nuclear policy change in his second term, and warned that any country that attacked his own would regret it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Who dares to attack Iran? Who even dares to think about it?&#8221; he said at a news conference.</p>
<p></p>
</blockquote>
<p>So I guess the Iranian policy of developing nuclear weapons and lying about doing so won&#8217;t be changing. I&#8217;m guessing that that the Obama Administration policy of pretending like it&#8217;s not happening still stands as well. Ahmadinejad even mocks and <em>dares</em> us to try and stop him. This is some seriously scary stuff.</p>
<p><strong>Meanwhile over in North Korea-</strong></p>
<p>North Korean <a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090614/D98QDSOO0.html">officials have announced </a>that they are enriching uranium and building a nuclear bomb. They also &#8220;<a href="http://apnews.myway.com/article/20090613/D98PO6T80.html">threatened war </a>if its ships are stopped as part of new U.N. sanctions aimed at punishing the nation for its latest nuclear test.&#8221; They added, &#8220;An attempted blockade of any kind by the U.S. and its followers will be regarded as an act of war and met with a decisive military response.&#8221;</p>
<p>How is the US responding to the news that North Korea has atomic weapons and enough materials to make at least one nuke? You&#8217;ll all feel very safe to know that the State Department has firmly wagged it finger and said, <a href="http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/N1392693.htm">&#8220;No, no, no!&#8221;</a></p>
<p>I wonder when the apology tour for the US provoking these great and diverse nations into building devastating weapons will begin.</p>
