#1 Obama is a mouthpiece for the Internationals attempt to get back the largess it lost when saddam fell. The left is so deep into the OIL for $ scenario, at every level. Peak oil is the extrapolated myth of soros chaos crowd. everything is woven together.

#3 So, you want to go to a country in a proxy war with your country, with your tail between your legs, and beg the country to stop.

Gee, that sounds like a fucking winning formula right there! I mean, it worked soooo well for Chamberlin, didn't it? What a genius! It is so simple!

Can I have back the 30 seconds of my life that were wasted reading this please?

#4 Hey Darth, take it easy there that's a totally unfair comparison. Obama is no Chamberlin.

Chamberlin at least had a rational argument that UK was unprepared for war.

Obama is a tranzi-socialist-fool and is not worthy to lick Neville's shoes.

#6 What exactly do you talk about with a bunch of Mad Mullahs who are trying to wreck everything you're trying to do? What do you say -- 'pretty please'?

How about "Die Now".

#8 Obama calls for talks with Iran over iraq = dangerous naivette.

Obama would have his testicles handed back to him if he had talks with Iran.

#9 You're making an unwarranted assumption there, JohnQC. Why on earth would they hand them back?

#12 Hitlery and Oblama - Dumb and Dumber. The Democratic Party should be so ashamed at allowing these two to run for ANY public office they should never wish to show their faces again. God help this nation if either of these two idiots gets elected, because they'd screw things up so badly only a revolution would be able to straighten it out.

#13 I think Obama talking with Iran will accomplish just as much as 'W' has by ignoring them them.

#14 Are you quite certain the current president is ignoring Iran, Yosemite Sam? I'm not really qualified to have an opinion on the matter, but I've a strong impression all sorts of interesting things are quietly happening beyond the reach of open sources.

#15 A vote for Obama in 2008 will be very much the same as a vote for Carter was. Hopefully it will be the 1980 election version, not the 1976 version.

#16 IOn RIAN > WHY DOES IRAN NEED THERMONUCLEAR BUBBLES. Are Mullahs, Ayatollahs, and other 1979/Shah-era = Iran-Iraq War "Old Guard" SLOWLY ON THEIR WAY OUT IN FAVOR OF DEDICATED ANTI-US SECULAR ANDOR "MODERATE", PRO-ECON REFORM POLITICIANS - IS IRAN USING THE NUCLEAR ISSUE AS BLUFF + DENIABLE COVER TO HIDE SERIOUS ECON PROBS = NEED FOR REFORMS??? Article indics that Tehran is offering every econ-suffering family US$50.00 NOT to complain or protest in the streets???

ALso from RIAN > RUSS MP: RUSSIA MAY CLAIM THE CRIMEA IFF UKRAINE JOINS NATO. Crimea = home of the BLACK SEA FLEET. You just knew Russ would try to claim Sevastopol = whole of Crimea? from Ukraine sooner or later.

#17 As argued or inferred times before, a serious danger in this kind of "great game" competition-rivalry between the US + Russia-China, etc. is THAT BOTH CAMPS OR ALL WILL END UP HELPING IRAN + RADICLA ISLAMISM BECOME DE FACTO NUCLEAR POWERS IN THEIR OWN RIGHT, AND HENCE A POTENT NUCLEAR THREAT TO BOTH OR ALL CAMPS - The USA, etc, ends up empowering its OWN DESTROYER!

IRAN + OBL-Radical Islam are now going hell-bent for across-the-board, indigenous, INTENSIFIED ESCALATORY NUCPOWERDEV AND NUCWEAPSDEV, etc. ASAP AMAP BEFORE 2010 or 2012, IMO to include geographic expansion vv RUSS + CENTRAL ASIA etc.
"CALLS FOR TALKS" > the issue is the magnitude of any potential future ISLAMIST NUCLEAR THREAT BY THE END OF A POST-DUBYA POTUS FIRST TERM, AS BOTH IRAN + ISLAMIST TERROR WILL LIKELY HAVE POTENT NUKE-WMD ARSENALS BY 2012, SEPARATE OR JOINT, AND HENCE WILL BE THAT MUCH STRONGER THAN NOW.
