#1 Ya think? Lol. A sewing circle of wannabees and has-beens fluffing away for WaPo. Hope they got lunch out of it.

#3 Joseph Cirincione of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace said [...] "Whatever you do is almost certain to accelerate a nuclear bomb program rather than destroy it."

And there you have it, the liberal, defeatist mantra for the entire war: whatever America does, it's wrong.

These assholes are going to get us all killed.

#4 I really think that Iran could acquire nuclear weapons with little difficulty if it simply got its hands off of Iraq, stopped its blustering, and relaxed its domestic clampdowns. What is it that they see that I don't?

#5 Dave, it's worse than that. We can't do anything about the Iranians because it might accelerate their nuke program.

And we can't do anything about the Nkors because they already have nukes.

In other words, we can't do anything. See how simple that is?

#9 These assholes are going to get us all killed.

That's true. There are two options, among many, to prevent it: elections, or a military coup. It's gonna get interesting, folks.

#10 Well, the first thing that you do is to take out domestic gasoline refining capability and storage facilities (tank farms). That will get the yellowjackets all agitated, and go from there.
