How President McCain Might Have Handled Iran
Days like today are one reason I supported the no-nonsense war hero John McCain over Barack Obama.
After the presidential election in Iran was apparently stolen, thousands of protesters took to the streets. Instead of the United States boldly supporting the cause of liberty, and defending dissidents, President Obama meekly said, "It's not productive given the history of U.S.-Iranian relations to be seen as meddling."
That -- of course -- was not a great moment in leadership.
President John F. Kennedy did not say we would "bear any burden -- so long as we don't interfere." Nor can one imagine Winston Churchill saying, "We will fight on the land -- so long as we don't meddle." Nor can one imagine Ronald Reagan saying "Tear down this wall! -- if you're cool with it..."
If the strongest nation in the free world is not willing to take a stand and at least provide moral support for those willing to risk their lives for liberty, the America I know is long gone. While it is understandable for Obama to not invade a nation over this injustice, it is quite another thing to not even bother to forcefully condemn it. Having a humble foreign policy does not preclude one from moral clarity.
Meanwhile, Republican House Whip Eric Cantor (R-Va.) released a statement calling on Obama to "take a strong public position in the face of violence and human rights abuses." Cantor added that the United States has a "moral responsibility to lead in opposition to Iran's extreme response to peaceful protests." Cantor's full remarks are here.
We'll never know what President McCain would have said, but it's pretty safe to say that he would have taken a forceful stand -- once again positioning America as a beacon of freedom and the last, best hope on Earth.
Instead, we risk becoming a cynical nation that makes decisions based on perceived short-term diplomatic gain.
That's not change I can believe in.

BAD CREDIT Q & A
Q. Is it OK to ask the credit bureau to remove charge-off items from my credit report? Would this make my credit report even worse than it already is? Is this a valid request that I should ask the bureau to do?
A. A credit bureau will not remove a charge-off at your request. It will remain on your credit report for seven years.
A charge-off appears on your credit report once you have missed a number a payments and the creditor decides that the debt cannot be collected. For example, credit card companies will charge off a debt once you have missed six payments.
The only thing that you can do is try to negotiate with your creditor(s) to pay a portion of what you owe them -- maybe only 50% or 25%. But their part of the agreement would be to list the debt as "paid as agreed." And you should get it in writing. That would not erase the write-off from your credit report, but a lender looking at it would see that at least you made an attempt to pay some of what you owed. If you only have two years left until you hit the seven-year mark, you might be better off not paying the bill.
Instead, you could use that money to pay your other bills on time. The best way to build good credit is to pay every bill on time every month. When you have done this for two years, you should see a big improvement in your credit score.
