We
had an election. It was over analyzed all week.
We
also had another week of Obamacare blues. The insurance industry hits Mr. Obama
with a 2×4. He apologizes because he canât control the private sector, but he
should have apologized for his failure
to understand the insurance industry. Any excuse to raise fees was
going to be used by the industry, and it really is the state insurance regulators that should
be the focus of anyone who is âdisenfranchisedâ by their insurer.
In
other news, Iran may hit the trifecta:
- It’s likely to see the sanctions currently crushing its economy loosened without
having to halt uranium enrichment. - Its
client Iraq is going to get US help to defeat its radical Sunni adversaries. - The
Assad regime, its other main client, got a free pass from the West to stay in
power for the foreseeable future.
Turning to Israel’s poutrage, how
did Mr. Netanyahu get so outfoxed? He has been neutralized by Mr. Obama. He
now functions as the principal spokesman for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (which
wants to see Iran go nuclear even less than Israel does), but, throwing public
tantrums about US policy only makes him look impotent.
One
Western diplomat told Reuters that Israelâs fury at the proposed deal might
actually make it easier for Mr. Rouhani to sell an interim deal to skeptics among
Iranâs security and clerical elites who are wary of US overtures to Tehran, 33 years after Washington
broke off diplomatic relations.
Use the quote below from Albert Einstein to write a homily about
smart people like Netanyahu who turn out to display weapons-grade stupid, at
precisely the wrong time:
The 3 types of people in politics. Is Netanyahu in box #3? Should the world be running away?
The race for 2014 begins:
Tea Party was not a big help on Election Day:
Christie Landslide validates the hug:
Obamaâs hope for the end of November:
