The dissolution of the current Iranian government

I have read two articles from Forbes magazine that lead the reader to believe that the current Iranian government will be toppled. The fact that the bazaar merchants and the Revolutionary Guard are dissatisfied with their current government may see this somehow to become reality. That is an interesting possibility that alleviates my useless worry of this particular country amassing nuclear weapons - whether they are ICBM's or suitcase bombs.

The Iranian people were lied to by the Ayatollah Khomeini and the horror that his regime inflicted on them will be a sad part of their history into eternity. If this theocratic government goes by the way side the possibility of continued support of the groups that we haved labeled terrorists may also end thereby lessening tensions surrounding Israel.

Now that we have moved a second carrier into the area to project our military option causes me to wonder what this administration is up to. We have troops in Iraq and Afghanistan that border Iran and I am praying that we do not involve ourselves in another undeclared war. My stand is to bring all of our troops home from overseas and put them on our borders to close them so that we can effective deal with the millions of "illegal" aliens that now reside in the US. By accomplishing this objective we can tax their income and support our social services. The United States government needs to stop shoving our "culture" down the throats of people that do not want our culture.

Shirley Sherrod

The Shirley Sherrod story of a black administrator that was biased against "white" people and was subseqently fired and then rehired will not be taught in history books of government school children. As the story progressed to its conclusion she grew as a human being and realised her destiny in helping the "poor" people in her jurisdiction and not just the black race. The forest of the problem, however, is that the group of people she was addressing at the time was a group of black racists that were eating it up as they were entertained by the "white man" getting his. Any form of separationism e.g. Black Caucus, NAACP, Miss Black America, La Rosa are a form of racism. If anyone belonged to the "WASP Society for a Better America" there would be outcries of racism but not for other ethnic and racial groups? This just doesn't sit right.

Another small point that was brought up as Shirley talked to her racist listeners is the implication that she was compelled by her race to make sure those of her ethinicity were better taken care of than anyone else. I have experienced and heard of black favortism in the government workplace. Once again the head of discrimination rears its head. I am sorry that the leader of America got egg on his face again but he choose these advisors that just do not check their facts before they present them.

Sherod was unjustly canned by taking out of context a statement she made in a speech to a group of people who were cheering that the white man was getting shafted. She eventually did the right thing as a government employee but she was still speaking to a racist society. We have a Supreme Court Justice from THE RACE society and a WOMANS ESCLUSIVE SOCIETY. I guess only the WHITE man cannot have a RACIST society because of past wrongs. The next time I miss the MISS BLACK awards it is I do not now support racism for any reason.
