Congratulations Barack Obama and Mike Huckabee for winning their Iowa caucuses last night, both were

worthy victories and we proud of both of you.

My candidate Bill Richardson came in 4th and I dont know about Fred Thompson 3rd in Repubs except to say scary as heck.

Puh Leeze.

Barack and Huckabee are pretty OK.

I could get used to having a handsome or a funny president respectively, I could sure get used to it, it would be easy.

Security card: here's what I think, they better bone up on Afghanistan, Somalia, Sudan and Kenya.

They should know who is Baitullah Mehsud and if the CIA dont have him in their cross hairs, the American people should be asking why.

Huckabee tax plan I do not understand, but economic populism, I do. I like the good things he did in Arkansas, including making money while he was Lt. Governor and made speeches. Anybody who knows how to make money is now an official genius, also his grace in taking the triple wide trailer and all that. I remember it from Jay Leno from many years ago and also saw him on Jay Leno last night. He was even funnier than I remembered, I could get used to him,

Bill Clinton didnt make much money while he was Governor of Arkansas, Hillary had to work, so there.

I wish Huckabee had mentioned that he became Governor when the previous Governor had to go to jail, he said resigned, that was a little tame and also the part where the previous governor almost retracted his resignation and Huckabee called the State Guard or national guard or state troopers or someone and practically forced the issue.

Anyhoo.

I also let it go that Huckabee made a seeming goof on eastern vs western borders in Afghanistan and Pakistan. Pak is on the eastern border of Afghan, everybody knows that, so if Huckabee said eastern, I thought he was talking about Afghans defending their eastern borders, though the tribal areas are Western to Pakistan.

But I think Huckabee will have the time to figure out east and western and I hope he finds out who is Baitullah Mehsud and why the CIA should have him in their cross hairs and be coordinating with the Pakistan Government but not too closely on our getting him.

In fact, I hope both Barack and Huckabee know that coordinating anything with the Pakistan government is fraught with risk and has big problems, which is the ISI and moles in the army find out and stooge us out to their jihadis in the tribal areas, they do not want America to win, they hate India and Shias.

Try to learn those little nutshells, they are very important

1 - Baitullah Mehsud - Bad, bad guy
2 - ISI, Pakistan army riddled with stooges
3 - do not spill all your secrets to Pakistan, they will rat you out
4 - do not give them money without close supervision
5 - make independent plans to get the bad guys

OK, those suffice for now, African nations will follow, I will figure out a short notes to communicate.

Both should have a strong position on Sudan, Somalia and Kenya and its not necessarily the obvious one.

In Sudan, for instance, Islamists not so bad, in Somalia, Islamists bad and in Kenya, they should be making peace within the country and having a recount. How a recount will root out ballot stuffing, I dont know. Ask Richie Haas.unt

Bye bye
