What a nice present from Congress for GWB for his upcoming birthday on July 6th. First an "All he could wish for FISA bill" and now with this resolution, and 362 in the House, set to Zip through, another big blank check, this time to attack Iran.
This is stupid. Aren't two disastrous wars enough?
We must wait until after Iran develops its nukes. It'll be much easier to deal with them then. Gas prices would become lower too. The Middle East region would be safer too. All this and more are excellent reasons why we should wait a bit more.
Don't let iran's bullshit scare you. There's a lot more too this than your lead to believe. Sure we have plenty of reasons to be concerned over a blockade. Think of how many reasons we'll have to be concerned if we sit back like a bunch of hippie whiners from San Francisco and play patty cake with iran though.
