Barack Obama began outlining his economic priorities in his first press conference as president-elect on November 7th.
** BIDEN’S LONGTIME CHIEF OF STAFF TAKES SENATE APPOINTMENT. Delaware Governor Ruth Ann Minner today named Vice President-elect Joe Biden’s retired Senate chief of staff, Ted Kaufman, to the US Senate seat that Biden won in another landslide on November 4th. Kaufman, who was a senior advisor to Biden’s presidential and vice presidential campaigns, will not run in the 2010 special election to fill out the remainder of the six-year term Biden just won again. This will allow Biden’s son, Delaware Attorney General Beau Biden, to run for the seat. The younger Biden, who surived the terrible car crash that claimed the life of his mother Neilia and his younger sister Naomi, just days after the 29-year old Joe Biden was elected to the Senate, in 1972, could not be appointed to his father’s seat because his National Guard unit recently deployed to Iraq.
** REPUBLICAN INCUMBENT LEADS IN GEORGIA SENATE RUN-OFF. The new Public Policy Polling survey shows Senator Saxby Chambliss leading his Democratic challenger, Jim Martin, 52% to 46%. Chambliss fell just below the 50% plus one needed under Georgia law to avoid a run-off next month. He has increased his lead over Martin since then. Why? Because fewer young voters are expected to turn out than participated in the regular general election 20 days ago.
Barack Obama benefited from a huge turnout of young voters in finishing only 5 points behind John McCain in the longtime red state. While at the polls, many of them voted for Martin. But without Obama himself on the ballot, it’s harder to get these new and/or occasional voters to the polls. For those who were wondering why Obama insisted on keeping Joe Lieberman in the Senate Democratic caucus.
Democrats have picked up seven US Senate seats in this election. And eighth looks quite possible, with comedian Al Franken having at least an even chance against Republican incumbent Norm Coleman as the recount proceeds in Minnesota.
** SCHWARZENEGGER HAS BIG 5 MEETING THIS AFTERNOON. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and the four legislative leaders from the two parties meet this afternoon to try to salvage the special session of California’s lameduck Legislature on the state’s chronic yet deepened budget crisis.
Not much has happened in this session, with key legislators traveling the world and the Capitol’s long entrenched factions seemingly remaining in stasis.
The Morning Column: MONDAY MORNING QUARTERBACK
A short week in presidential and California politics, with Thanksgiving just around the corner. Yet a consequntial week as President-elect Barack Obama unveils much of his top economic team and begins laying out his economic revival program. (See item below.) And Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger tries to salvage his special session of the lameduck Legislature, pushing for a vote to solve the deepening nature of California’s chronic budget crisis. (See item below.)
Meanwhile, major moves are afoot on the geopolitical front, with Russian President Dmitri Medvedev touring Latin American capitals as a squadron of the Russian Navy arrives for its first Caribbean maneuvers since the Soviet days nearly 20 years ago. And Iraq’s Parliament takes up the US troop withdrawal plan negotiated by the Bush/Cheney Administration — a plan which vastly accelerates the pullback of US forces beyond the wishes of this White House — with Iraq’s Cabinet. Iraqi officials say that if parliamentary approval is not forthcoming, US forces will have to withdraw immediately.
Russia’s navy began sailing the world’s oceans again a year ago. Today a squadron arrives in the Caribbean for maneuvers.
Medvedev will meet with a variety of presidents in the region, including the heads of Brazil, Venezuela, and Cuba. Oil powers Russia and Venezuela are expected to announce a new energy conglomerate. Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez’s party just swept 17 of 20 state elections over the weekend. Russia is making the none too subtle point that it doesn’t like the US meddling in its backyard.
Will the Iraqi Parliament turn down the negotiated withdrawal plan? It’s looked upon favorably by senior figures in Iran, which should tell any neocons seeking to declare victory quite a lot. On the other hand, without a status of forces agreement, US forces would be legally obligated to withdraw immediately, as the UN mandate runs out at the end of the year.
Back to domestic politics. The bailout of Citigroup I reported on Saturday morning is underway now, with the US government investing $20 billion for another equity stake in the troubled financial giant — America’s largest bank — and the government agreeing to guarantee a “bad bank” portion of the firm’s assets, some $300 billion.
President Bush spoke with Obama about this over the weekend, apparently seeking some sort of approval. Bush is increasingly absent from the play on these things, with Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson running things. At a press avail just now, Paulson grimaced as Bush referred to Citigroup as “Citicorp,” which it hasn’t been for years.
Will California’s budget crisis be solved tomorrow? What do you think?
** OBAMA TODAY. President-elect Barack Obama and Vice President-elect Joe Biden hold a press conference to announce some of the leaders of his economic management team, and answer questions about his emerging plan to revitalize the US economy. As reported Friday, New York Federal Reserve Bank chief Timothy Geithner is slated to be secretary of the treasury and former Treasury Secretary and Harvard University president Larry Summers will head the National Economic Council inside the White House. UC Berkeley Professor Christina Romer will chair the Council of Economic Advisors. Melody Barnes, a former top aide to Senator Ted Kennedy, will chair the Domestic Policy Council in the White House, which will be involved with such economic-related issues as health care, Social Security, and energy. New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, a key backer in the primaries, will be announced as secretary of commerce in a separate event.
Obama will take questions about his emerging plan, which he first spoke of in his weekend video address below, to revive the US economy with a big jobs program.
The event is at 9 AM Pacific at the Chicago Hilton and will be roadblocked on all cable news nets.
** FROM THE ARNOLD FILE. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger meets this morning with Korean President Lee Myung-bak at the InterContinental Hotel in Century City, then flies to Sacramento for private meetings and discussions in and around the Capitol.
Schwarzenegger will push for a state budget vote on Tuesday, probably the last day for such action in the special session of the lameduck Legislature he called to deal with the deepening nature of California’s chronic budget crisis.
Predictably, the dominant far right faction of the California Republican Party’s board of directors voted over the weekend to oppose any tax increases as part of a budget solution.
** SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY CLINTON: MASTERSTROKE, MOUSETRAP, OR BOTH? Potential Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton. Masterstroke or mousetrap? Or both? And for whom?
The political world has been all aflutter for the better part of a week at the prospect — initially portrayed as a done deal — that Hillary Clinton will be Barack Obama’s secretary of state. On the Republican side of the aisle, Henry Kissinger calls her “highly qualified” and Arnold Schwarzenegger dubs it “a great move.” The Clintons’ opponents in the Democratic Party have been restrained in their response. The media loves it, running with endless references to historian Doris Kearns Goodwin’s very fine book on the Lincoln Cabinet, an Obama favorite, “Team of Rivals.” … From my Wednesday column.
** MIAMI BLUES: PALIN AND NATIONAL REPUBLICANS LOOK LIKE THE SAD CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN PARTY. … From my November 14th column.
** THE AMERICA THAT CAN BE/THE AMERICA THAT HAS BEEN. It was the America That Can Be vs. the America That Has Been. The future won. Yet there is much in the past that is of enduring value.
I must say that this campaign, for all its excitement, its twists and turns, and its thrilling outcome, was something of a disappointment. In Barack Obama and John McCain, we had the two most compelling figures in the two parties, representatives of an emerging set of values and an enduring tradition. … From my November 7th Huffington Post column.
** GLOBAL OBAMA: BIG OPPORTUNITIES, BIGGER CHALLENGES. If he wins, Obama will have the global popularity that no American president has had in a great many years. But what sort of challenges will counter the global opportunity that an Obama presidency might afford America? … From my October 24th Huffington Post column.
** 24/7 LIVE TV NEWS FEED FROM RUSSIA TODAY. Russia has re-emerged as one of the world’s great powers. Click here for a live TV news feed on your computer, bringing you English-language, jargon-free, fast-paced coverage of global and Russian news from the new Russia Today channel. You probably already know about CNN International, BBC World, and Al Jazeera. Russia Today, which also features culture, entertainment, and sports, is based in Moscow and is owned and operated by the TV Novosti division of Russia’s state news agency, RIA Novosti.
While it’s quite foolish to expect to see, say, criticism of Vladimir Putin on Russia Today, which I know as a former DemRussia advisor, the channel is very interesting nonetheless. With U.S. cable news chattering away as it does, this sort of respite can be informative. The NWN live link to RT does not constitute an endorsement of the channel’s views. It’s presented as an otherwise unavailable new media window.
** SCHWARZENEGGER’S CALIFORNIA. Here is my series of five columns on the governorship of Arnold Schwarzenegger for the Los Angeles Times in debate with Pulitzer Prize-winning former Times reporter/editor Bill Boyarsky, whose columns are also included.
Among them is what I’m sure is the first piece examining Schwarzenegger’s legacy as governor of California. Since he will actually be governor of California until 2011. No technology known to be disruptive to the space/time continuum was used in its preparation.
** TRACK GLOBAL AND NATIONAL ENERGY PRICES IN NEAR REAL TIME VIA BLOOMBERG ENERGY MARKET WATCH. After crashing over $147 for yet another record on July 11th, crude oil is trading in the $51 to $52 per barrel range. That’s up $4 per barrel from Friday’s close.
OPEC forecasts a 0.6% decline in global oil consumption in 2009. But sees a 2.5% growth in oil consumption in developing nations.
The drop of $98 per barrel since the record high over the summer comes on acknowledgment that the weak US economy will cut future demand and on the easing of geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. It is clear that that, contrary to much chatter, neither the US nor Israel is about to launch a strike against Iran. And the Russian war with Georgia, confounding much speculation and reporting to the contrary, actually decreased the geopolitical risk premium in the oil market.

MEDIA BLACK LISTING
Now, black listing is nothing new and has been around since the beginning of time, one Greek had to commit suicide do to his comments about his government by taking poison, and Pat Henry was hung by the Brit’s for his written comments in his own paper, and his last words were “ I am sorry, I have but one life to give for my country”, I would have put it into different words and said “I am sorry, that I have but one life to give for my beliefs, and the freedom to express those beliefs.
I have always been a fan of the Idea of the National Enquire, but not of the publication or its contents, just the idea that it was there, I have never been a fan of the Film Rating Board but do understand it is necessary to protect the over-all public interests, they don’t stop films from being made but do set a rating as to what can be expected and I am Triathlon Triple and Triple XXX, would be my rating in the controlled (US/MIC) United States Military Industrial Complex, if it wasn’t a controlled system.
I am a real fan of George Carlin and the (7) Seven Dirty words, and Sirus Radio and Howard Stern (Jewish or not), with its way out there commentators. But, have never been a fan of censorship or BLACKLISTINGS. In the end its serves no good purpose, as it does more damage in the long run than good, it only creates an under-ground radical press, and whispering campaigns, that are really out there, and tend in the end to bring down the system that tried to suppress them.
It is one thing to monitor comments for the long list of “talking policy” points that allows a controlled media to exist, and then not post a comment that was beyond in their judgment the “talking policy”, but not to allow the submission of a comment is insane, and is (1950’s) Blacklisting. It simply doesn’t work! The Guardian, HuffingtonPost.Com, and (AOL) America On Line all do it, and are just examples of and are only the tip of the huge ice berg, that can and do practice Blacklisting but I still post in non controlled media overseas, were my comments can’t be monitored, stopped or rebutted, and that makes them far more dangerous.
Free Press and Comment, is necessary in any society and is there to hold the feet of those in power to the fire, and not elevate them to the positions of God’s in our society. But the Guardian and HuffingtonPost.Com are not free press or media but a Blacklisting pare of controlled propagandist organizations which practice not oversight comment censorship but deny access by BLACKLISTING. It’s simply INSANITY!

CLINTON, HILLARY DIANE RODHAM: “Senator Hillary Clinton (D-Punjab).”
(US/SOS) CANDIDATE CLINTON
The (US/SOS) United States Secretary of State Candidate (D-NY) US/Senator Hillary Diane Rodham-Clinton, is the Whore of the New Babylon (NYC) New York City, The wicked witch of the West, the first wife of Adam, Lilith, the wife unwilling to submit either to the will of God, or Adam the mate she was created to be the companion to.
Hillary sets the standard for “my way or the highway” diplomacy, deriding and rejecting in any way, any direct kind of quiet diplomat negotiations needed to facilitate talks to explore options with (US/MIC) United States Military Industrial Complex, adversaries as naïve’ and ‘dangerous., and close-minded, militaristic pit bull, a limited thinker who’s first reactions are to find blame and then to take aggressive forceful military action not even reading the National Security Report prior to voting for military action against the Islamic Peoples of Iraq, opposing every significant peace initiative that has been put forward, including a timetable of withdrawal from Islamic Lands, supporting a pre-emptive strike against Islamic Shi-ite Persian Peoples of Iran. Hillary comes to Islam with the closed fist of WAR, in one hand and a quiver of arrows in the other.
The Clinton version of geopolitical diplomacy is pentagon heavy that does not learned to look beyond dominance and war, and is diplomatically light, saber rattling, surgical strikes (such as is now being done) in Pakistan, invasion (clearing), occupation (holding), “Transferring” (social restructuring), and/or the genocide and obliteration of Islam, internally fractured and divisive instead of comprehensive and cohesive, and in violation of both International laws, and United Nations Charters.
Hillary supports the status quo in regards to Islam and the Israeli occupation of Palestine that Palestinians have to reinterpret the notion of right of return in a way that would preserve Israel as a Jewish state and (forget) the notion of right of return, but except the condition of a permanent, “transfer,” or “relocation,” , fostering exclusivist, ethno/religious nationalism where the realization of rights is dependent on whether they are Jewish and accept “Transfer” supporting the long-standing (US/MIC) United States Military Industrial Complex policy of labeling any Islamic Palestinians who refuse to recognize a state that effectively guarantees their dispossession as “extremists” who must be isolated. In an unjustifiable intransigence on the issue and the demographics of an ever increasing Islamic Palestinian population that will at some point overwhelm the Jewish state, trying to preserve Israel as a Jewish state. Not only does this undermine the rights of (1948) Islamic Palestinian refugees, created by the United States of America, backing the (UN) nullified (Res. 181), when Palestinians rejected parting with more than half their country leading to the (’47-’49) war
Hillary Rejects the (GZL) resolution of (2002), offer made by all (22) twenty-two Islamic Arab Nations, (35) Non-Arab Islamic nations, and the representatives of the Palestinian People, favoring a (2) state solution, still on the table, and which continues to be rejected by the State of Israel. The compact is the total recognition of Israel, the ending of all hostilities between the signing nations, in return for the total evacuation by Israel of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, and a (2) two state solution.
Hillary supports the Israel blockade of are border crossings, coastal enclave’s in to Islamic Palestinians and its violent clashes with the Palestinian Authority security forces cutting off wheat, petrol (gasoline), cooking oil, humanitarian supplies, medicine and other vital supplies from the (UN) United Nations relief agency.
Yet supporting the continued to sending of (1/3rd) One Third of the foreign aid supplied by the (US/MIC) to Israel and continue the supply of the latest weapons without charge, to support the Clinton/Obama Islamic Palestinian Solution The United States has provided Israel with the (X-Ban Radar) units, Patriot Missile Systems and (1K) One-Thousand Bunker Buster Bombs, and the Clinton/Obama administration will continue keep on the table a pre-emptive strike Shi-ite Persian Iran with Nuclear weapons to remove a Nuclear face off between Israel and Iran within the next (24) twenty-four months, continuing and increasing the Bush Administration Palestinian policy position, allowing Israel to have free reign, continue building the Israel version of Adrian’s Wall, to build illegal settlements on the West bank, completing its occupation of Palestine while looking beyond too expand its borders.

NOBLE CAUSE OR CRIMINAL ACT
MUMBAI, INDIA
** There’s a discrepancy about the number of terrorists taking part in the Mumbai attacks. The reports from the first few days referred to (25 to 30) twenty-five to thirty, gunmen, perhaps (40) forty. That made sense, given the amount of havoc they were wreaking simultaneously at multiple locations around the city. But the official number ended up at (10) ten, with nine killed by Indian security forces and one captured and talking about his Pakistani connection. However, other evidence suggests there were at least (15) fifteen, attackers. With all the chaos and anger, Indian authorities wouldn’t want to admit that some of the attackers had escaped. Although it’s embarrassing to claim that it took two-and-a-half days for Indian police and elite military units to defeat (10) ten, terrorists. (Source: Bill Bradley; HuffingtonPost.Com)

ANGOR ADDA, PAKISTAN
On Wednesday (3rd) September the world was once more shocked and appalled that (JSOC/CIA/RSO/IC) Joint Special Operations Command, Central Intelligence Agency, Regional Senior Operative, In Charge, with the full knowledge and approval of General King David “Betray Us” Petraeus, The Butcher of Islam and with the full knowledge of the United States Imperial President, engaged in a mission creep, incursion mission, into the sovereignty of yet another nation, Pakistan with an unprovoked, pre-dawn air-borne raid and ground assault on the village of Angor Adda, located in South Waristan on the Afghanistan / Pakistan boarder, which is considered one of the militant strongholds dotting a frontier region a possible hiding place for Osama bin Laden and al-Qaida’s No. 2 leader, Ayman al-Zawahri, Maybe.
Under the Strategy of the Grand Chess Board, (FSWD) Full Spectrum World Domination, Preparing the Battlefield Operation, Mossad Operatives were the point of the spear on the operation, finding the locating,targeting and reporting their location to awaiting (CIA)/Mossad operatives at Baghrum Air Force Base in Afghanistan, where upon receiving the report, a combined force of Navy Seals and Delta Force flew in on at least one big (CH-47) Chinook transport helicopter, with only two simple rules of engagement, “If it’s alive and to the front it’s the enemy, if it’s dead and to the rear it’s friend lies, kill’em all and let God sort them out. Blasted their way into several houses and gunned down killing (15 to20) ten to twenty, civilians, mostly women and children found there. “These were truck drivers, local traders and their families.
Pakistan’s military had asked for an explanation but received only a “half-page” of “very vague” information that failed to identify the intended target, until a week later when details about the commando operation emerged that indicate the mission was more intrusive than had previously been known. According to two American officials briefed on the raid, it involved more than two dozen members of the Navy Seals and Delta Force who spent several hours on the ground and killed about two dozen (Suspected) Qaeda fighters in what now appeared to have been a planned attack against militants who had been conducting attacks against an American forward operating base across the border in Afghanistan.Supported by an (AC-130) gunship, the Special Operations forces were whisked away by helicopters after completing the mission.
** There are no easy solutions. If the Indians don’t retaliate militarily against targets inside Pakistan — whether official, rogue official, or private — they risk looking weak. If they don’t demand the hand-over of terrorist suspects, they risk looking weak. But the first option could lead to outright war. The second option could further destabilize Pakistan. Or it could lead to a military confrontation if Pakistan did not comply. . (Source: Bill Bradley; HuffingtonPost.Com)
$$ The Clinton/Obama easy solution. Version of geopolitical diplomacy is by supporting the bombing of selected targets by India of Pakistan, in retaliation for the Mumbai, India incident. The Ends Justify the Means, unilateral and illegitimate acts of state terrorism, the violations of International laws, and United Nations Charters, (For The Greater Good) saber rattling, surgical strikes (such as is now being done) in Pakistan, invasion, occupation, the genocide and obliteration/genocide of Islam, imposing the political and religious beliefs of the West over that of Islam, and no government even the (US/MIC) has the right to take such actions and is in violation of international law and (UN) United Nations Charter.

The Question now is, which side represents a noble cause and which a criminal act?
