Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

The citizens of Iran were in search of an honest election from their government. They did not get one. They got empathy from the rest of the free world as we cheerd them on in their use of the internet and cell phones and all things in this modern vision of "Radio Free Europe" that told the truth during the horrors of WWII. There were recent fatal hits against the ruling government of Iran, albeit lower eschelon, showing that an underground is in place . The people that want the elections to be honest would be hurt by the same sanctions that we use against the government of Iran just the same as those sanctions against Cuba. Tough people in power are able to endure hits againts those they ride rough shod over. Specific santions not yet mentioned but just a form of sabor ratteling might never be more than an embargo. I hope its obvious that tyrants are able to withstand that while they watch any glimer of hope in the ctizenry be dimmed. On the other hand there is attacking Iran but only the missle sights. We know we can do that. We also should realize that they are in our face to the point that we should not depend on Isreal to make the hit for us. Everyone laughed at Joe Beiden when he said the President would be tested toward the end of the first year and yet here we are. I hope this brings us closer together.

Comfort Levels

Hobbies are a fun pastine. They unite us with our children and give us moments of relaxation in private or contribute to our health both mentally and physically. To strive to improve at an endeavor at a measured steady pace takes dedication of purpose. The comfort level is not only doable but actually enjoyable. Now and then in our personal time the abilty to participate in what we enjoy is challenged. The flux of schedules is not really a challenge to the existance of what we enjoy but a redoubbled of efforts for that personal time we want to ourselves. It is necessary to realize the desperation of effort beyond the accustomed comfort levels just to have a life. The significant example of firing a large caliber weapon, as uncomfortable as it is, does meet the challenge. Our president did an incredible job with the short term financial crisis perhaps better than any other candidate could have. First we need water and then can we contemplate the rest of our journey. I trust his lead in healthcare as well.
