Some very interesting replies.
I was a big fan of Obama at the start…but his policies on "Terrorism" are never going to work.
North Korea is no threat to the world. They a tiny nation. However Iran is a threat but is it really anything like Russia during the Cold War. Iran has serious chips on the bargaining table. Its a game of Poker at the moment. I doubt Iran has any intentions to attack anyone..just buying chips to increase the other players awareness of them.
Congrats to all involved
Waste of money. He is quite a disturbing man. Talent wise nothing special. Looked woeful last night along with Tevez.
Obama came into office talking of change but has brought any change what so ever?
He came in with a slick propaganda machine that was just too much for the old grey white of conservative America. He was much like J.F.K…he didn’t have much meat to his policies but he as a orator he could speak to any lay man. But so much of his change’s and policies have turned sour and he came promising the youth the world but in reality has delivered very little change.
He has passed a record new defence budget of something of 3/4 of a trillion dollars this year. For a man that craved and spoke to the anti-war vote he has done little if anything to change the war situation. Instead you could even say he is getting as bad if not worse that Bush. Their is so many civilian death’s on his watch…he has more of a gung-ho approach to war and he has the Bush aide Robert Gates still in charge of the DOD. This is very strange for man that wished to aim to end these war’s. In fact he is not winning anything and the sooner he and his cabinet finally "get this" only then can he move out of the hole he has dug himself. The Military Industrial complex that dominates his country is now banging the war drums for war against Iran. However the White House is threading very fine line with its response. Their are not taking on a country with no equipment. They are taking on a country with vast power and resources. The recent emerging talk against Russia will hurt America in the long run. Russian’s hate America despite their blaise type new realsionship. Its quite ironic for dictators that we know so well from investing in sporting ventures in England are now asking for the West to cut Iran out but the President of Iran is democratically elected
we hear. Even still a war against Iran for Obama will be nothing short of a disaster for Obama in Foreign Policy terms. He is wrong in Iraq..he is wrong in Afghanistan and he be wrong in Iran. He could set off the new World War of our time. Hilary Clinton is obviously a woman that infuriates most western eastern leaders and certainly does no help to the situation.On the bay he has blackmailed(altho some would call this normal politics) countries to take his concentration camp detaines. He struggling around the legal problems. Was bush’s fault again but he should have done more research before talking bull on how he was going to close it straight away.
His efforts in Israel are futile. The latest list of war crimes are nothing but a footnote to him. No hard speak no hard words. Just george mitchell to save another of his daft policies. The Israeli propaganda machine is better than most and they certainly would be moved by a black democrat. I think this conflict will go for many centuries. The jews are arrogant their cocky and their they have the power behind them. The palestians have terrorist groups undermining their message and a deep resentment towards the jewish people. This is NI but 10 times worse.
His economic policies are daft….the trillions of dollars have done little to stimulate anything. He seems to do something very unamerican and reward lazyness. Tax the productive to the hilt and undermine USA corps with his attacks. Socialism will not work in America. His health care was hurried through on the death of a kennedy. A nice romanticism to it all i guess but most americans don’t want it.
He handling of the gulf of mexico was again high profile because it lacked strength and conviciton. Instead he came to late to the party and caught up drinking too much too fast and came out with bizarre statements against BP. Obviously nearly all are justified and Tony Hayward was just a disgraceful sight to almost all Yanks but it was almost gutter press. Ask going to kick and so on. Robert Kennedy the greatest Kennedy and the greatest president USA never had would be turning in his grave as such loutish behaviour. In crisis the Kennedy’s always spoke of pulling together as a nation. Obama went the other way and went hell and high leather after the Brits but in fact he damaged his own economy by ending oil drilling for a period of the gulf coast. A bizarre thing to do since it was BP and BP only that have such a lousy record in health and safety. A strange move.
Plenty of other gaffes including being on talk shows and swoozing the press with lavish dinners and coverage. I not sure American appreciates the White House coming in through their tv sets unless its a national emergency. Its generally a very harding working anti lazy low tax rate country and thats how people want it to be.
Obviously foreign realtions with the east have improved and he has done many interesting things and successful things in his presidency but it has very little effect on the ordinary American. The left wing vote against war’s will not vote for him again or the youth…he will have vets coming back with horrific health mental and pysholigical problems to tell. I was hoping he would have some sort of way to end the wars. Instead with wikileaks it seems the Obama under America looks nasty state.
They obviously don’t even trust the British anymore. They on the outside probaly have less enemies but inside they have more than they think. China being the biggest danger to America.
America under Obama?…what do you make of it?
That’s interesting….
Then he really comes in as a player especially since the fast-ish ground won’t be that much of a negative now.
Might go antepost if he can beat Big Zeb in this
The Gigginstown should go for the longer race the 3mile novice i think it is.
With MD unlikely then your prob looking at maybe 3 or 4 horse’s within a few points of each other
Golden Silver ran a superb time last time out and at the age of 8 could be now at the peak of his career over the next 12 month’s. He fairly toyed with the opposition last time out IMO. Personally i don’t think the Festival suits him but the owner/trainer should consider going for one of the prep races over in England before the Festival. He be very hard to beat in any of those races not at Chelt..
A very lovable horse….would be a joy to own
Zaidpour for anyone’s money.
Should hose up by 10l. Stack’s filly could be Grade 1 winner in her own right by the end of the year but Zaidpour is just a Monster

Very tough to weigh up this race without full Decs.
I like the gigginstown horse but almost certain he be too slow to win a Grade 1 against the likes of Noble Prince
Surely G-MAC will win this.
Yes well done AP.
Very Gracious!
Townend is the heir to the Walsh throne.
Paul Nicholls won’t be long snapping him up i believe
Its a fruitless task i understand now haha…i going to leave it

Very hard to keep track on Mare’s. Will post an updated list of names etc when they are announced again.
….
To Narrow it down i thinking of marking all Pivotal’s in with a big red mark as they cant stay ever.
Hurricane Run’s will also fall into that bracket as their are very slow learner’s and more Leger type of Horse’s. Big Backward yearlings again this year…can’t win the Derby
Not just a fan…a Number 1 Fan.
The man is just scary….wait till the Festival this year when he steers home Willie’s and Paul Nicholls Horse’s race after race.
I actually think he could win over 10 races this year..I just hope he makes it. These injuries are taking a toll on the man

Merry Christmas everyone….
Looking forward to it like a small child with the snow and all.
And of course the racing
