Why the Democratic Party is going to lose ground in the 2006 election, in one easy lesson
--some idiot on Kos
Sure, Iran with multiple nukes would be a somewhat more potent foe than Iran was in 1995 (I am convinced that the Iranian goverment managed to put together at least one uranium bomb sometime between the illegal invasion of Iraq and the 2004 "election", because they changed their tone from being a fairly quiet brutal religious dictatorship to being almost as irrational in their public pronouncements as North Korea [another new member of the nuke club, and one that, unlike Iran, has missiles capable of striking the United States]), but a foreign policy issue, let alone the most pressing foreign issue?
Sure, Iran with a nuke might be a problem to Israel, because that means that if the Israeli goverment decides to unload 100 or so of their nuclear weapons at Iran they might get Tel Aviv glassed in return, but I'd think that the solution there is, just possibly, to not do a preemptive nuclear attack. And, judging from the history of nuclear weapons since 1944, just how much of a problem is it? Rounding up to the nearest whole number, I'd say it's Zero; So far, there have only been two cases where a nuclear power has dropped The Bomb on an enemy, and since then 60+ years have gone by, complete with other nuclear powers disintegrating into a bunch of squabbling city-states, and not one single bomb has been detonated.
But, no, all the B*sh junta needs to do is wave their latest political campaign in the air and the stupid stupid stupid liberals in the United States throw their hands up in the air and start wailing about oh oh oh, the sky is falling, and someone has to save us!!!
And, come November 2nd, they will, thanks to being spineless enough to get a dozen or so key races close enough to steal, get "saved" in the way that only the Evil Party can arrange. And, you know something? They'll deserve it. If the liberals in the United States haven't figured out that when they stand around passing Captain Codpiece buckets of gasoline, valuable things end up burning, they'll end up really losing elections and they'll have nobody to blame but themselves.
