| ..meanwhile back in the straights of Hormuz, Bush gets his war on |
|
yeah while some of DUers are so enamored with Obama, George W. is getting his war on in Iran and the economy is tanking here at home.
Bush goes to Israel specifically speaking of security and the Iran question. Just minutes ago CNN reports that 2 F-18s crashed, and on Sunday there was an incident in internal waters off Iran.
Also, the unemployment rate hit 5% as the economy only added 18,000 jobs.
No political message here other than its most likely how we got into Vietnam, a made up incident, fulfilling the prophecy for war.
Sorry if I woke you out of your Obama craze-haze.

and her characterization of it as a diplomatic move...
Oh trust me, we're paying VERY close attention!!!!

| 4. The amendment authorizes war only after coming through |
|
congress. And it specifically targeted a cell of the Iranian Army.
At least she had the cujones to take a vote and stick by it - Obama, all in arms about it, got cold feet, froze up, ducked his responsibility to VOTE, period.

| 5. Really... did you know that the Iranian Revolutionary Guard is the "unit" that runs the Iranian Navy |
|
Betcha didn't.
You need to catch up. Read the amendment too while your at it.
Gee if all is so well, makes one wonder by biden is threatening impeachment if bush goes to war with Iran. If its an impossibility then why the threat?

| 3. That was the first thing I saw when I turned on the TV this morning.. Iran |
|
is coming, while we're not looking. Not that there's anything we can do about it, or that our fearless leaders in DC will do about it.
