Back To Vietnam

++Willard Romney lashed out at The Donald for criticizing John McCain. None of the Romneys have ever served in the military. The Donald admitted he had student deferments and a bone spur. The Donald then went off on John McCain's poor record in helping veterans , which is true,and then said what did we get out of Vietnam but alot of death. 

++Ben Carson at the same Iowa forum said he didn't know whether John McCain was a war hero. Ted Cruz said the refused to go down into the sewer. The RNC decided the Donald criticized the wrong person for nice and said that Republicans never criticized veterans. Tell that to John Kerry whom they mocked with fake purple hearts at the 2004 convention. 

++Jeb! hasn't been heard from because his draft number was 26 and no one knows how he got out of the draft. 

++The Imperial Post was crowing that this will do in The Donald. The Fact he has monopolized all media coverage of the Republicans this week indicates we may see a bounce yet again in his polls. The Donald won't let go. He claims John McCain just appears on Sunday shows and talks, talk, talks but does nothing.

++Meanwhile tomorrow is the big Bibi showdown with war hero John Kerry. They appear on three talk shows in a row. Bibi is revving up the AIPAC machine to votes against the Iran deal.

++Today President Obama spoke in detail about the critiques of the Iran deal. He will be visiting the VFW convention to talk about it.

++Pat Buchanan came out his fog and wrote a very sensible piece about the difficulties the Republicans will have in rejecting the agreement. Pat argues this would leave the United States isolated,Iran free to pursue a nuclear weapon, and the whole word not trusting the United States whose Secretary of State negotiated the whole thing. 

++The Saudis , according to the Christian Science Monitor, will act against Iran before the money flows to tehran from the release of the first tranche of sanctions money. 

++My e-mails from conservative military types are hoping that the Saudis and Israelis will form an alliance to do away with the Palestinian issue and then form a collation to fight the Shia and Persians. Oh Happy Day. Anyone saying that the deal is not a choice between peace and war is lying.

++Scott Walker didn't have a good week. The Progressive magazine did a great TV ad showing what Scott has done to Wisconsin--destroyed it. Word out of New Hampshire has residents reacting to Walker's refusal to have town hall meetings. Walker wants pre scripted venues and wants to avoid any questioning . For his announcement he wore a Kevlar vest and is surrounded by heavy security throughout his campaign. Ed Kilgore at the Washington Monthly is beginning to pay attention to this creature.
