#2 Yes, this does line up with the 800 other reports on this topic. Iran is a roach motel.

#3 Let's go easy here -- this is actually helping Bush make the case against Iran. It's a big "well duh" for Rantburgers, but it's an education for Bush-bashing Dimocrats.

#4 Too bad the Dims have their fingers in their ears singing "la-la-la," Tom.

#5 You're right, facts haven't influenced them yet.

#6 It's interesting to note where this latest information originates:France, Italy, Spain and other (European?) countries. But not to worry, Kerry will repair relations with Iran if he becomes president. But Kerry's e-mail to the Mehr News Agency, and published in the Tehran Times, wasn't clear how he would do this. Through the Revolutionary Guard or the intelligence service or the Grand Council of Mullahs or elected politicans? First Kerry will have to find out who to surrender to. (That's the what he learned growing up in France isn't it?)
Enough questions about Iraq already. Someone needs to ask Kerry what he would do about the growing threat from Iran.

#7 If Kerry wins, he can lead us all in conversion to Islam. That should satisfy the Iranians, Osama, and Jacques ChIraq. It will also scare the hell out of Kimmie.

#8 The Dems are happy to hear all about al-Qaeda being in Iran, since they think that this somehow bolsters their case that the invasion of Iraq was wrong (we all know better).

Of course, if GWB actually proposed to do something about the turbantops, the Dems would quickly -- nay, instantaneously -- change their tune.

#9 During the Dems little reinvention in Boston, the majority of speakers acted like 9-11 never even happened. No wonder the enemies of America favour Kerry-Edwards.

Bush will win..any bets? Good odds..:)

#10 "The Iranians play a double game," said a top French law enforcement official who, like others interviewed, asked to remain anonymous. "Everything they can do to trouble the Americans, without going too far, they do it. They have arrested important Al Qaeda people, but they have permitted other important Al Qaeda people to operate. It is a classic Iranian style of ambiguity, deception, manipulation."

Said that with a straight face, did he?
