This is about action. There is NOTHING in this world that the people at boot level cannot accomplish.<BR/><BR/>If the leaders have decided to down the cyanide, then fine but I have a Congressman and two Senators who answer to me and my brothers and sisters. I have a vote that empowers me.

God has a plan, and if he did not cut the proposed time short, all would perish.<BR/><BR/>Since I now know, and probably most of America, what the 'Bush Doctrine' is, I'm thinking Bush should set an example and do a dance over Iran to show Iran's leaders who is boss. President Amanutjob can threaten all he likes, but he knows he doesn't have anything until he possesses nuclear weapons. He is just biding his time and spewing trash in order to secure those weapons. If President Amanutjob believes the destruction of Israel will mean the return of that 'mystery guy' he speaks of, then he is going to do everything in his power to make sure that happens on his watch. Amanutjob is a classic sociopath just like all of his mentors that went before him.<BR/><BR/>The UN is such a spineless entity and President Amanutjob knows it; he is given the floor at the UN to mock everyone, including the American people.Joannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04644244465548927962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-2685923616133069772008-09-24T09:12:00.000-07:002008-09-24T09:12:00.000-07:00The best argument I've heard so far to vote for Sa...The best argument I've heard so far to vote for Sarah Palin.Lady Cincinnatushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02392687400344784843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-75868095177823274492008-09-24T04:58:00.000-07:002008-09-24T04:58:00.000-07:00Perhaps I'm just out of touch, but I don't see Ira...Perhaps I'm just out of touch, but I don't see Iran as much of a threat at all. Israel will absolutely not allow Iran to get the bomb, and -- and I think this is where I differ from most -- I still feel like we'd aid Israel in whatever form necessary should she be placed at risk, whether we've got Obama at the helm or McCain. <BR/><BR/>I think this because, if nothing else, Obama is a master of pandering. He knows what his audience wants to hear, and he's got no qualms with smearing his own beliefs to make them happy. I am just crossing my fingers in the hope that that trait will play to our advantage in Iran. He will be under tremendous national pressure to aid Israel if she is in danger, and if he doesn't answer the call, it will likely end his career. <BR/><BR/>Notre Dame's hope one-liner is good, but I've always heard it a different way: "Hope is the last refuge of a fool." Let's hope this last shred of hope isn't the foolish one.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10363879464584026428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-13010384372521307802008-09-24T01:38:00.000-07:002008-09-24T01:38:00.000-07:00Very good points Findalis.

Although the world is caving in to Iran's demands, there is still the hope that they can be stopped.<BR/><BR/>A strong leader in both Israel and the US can do it. I know the Israelis will do everything they can to stop Iran, even attacking their nuclear program (alone if need be). It would be national suicide not to try.<BR/><BR/>And I know that under John McCain, Iran will have a strong opponent to face. One who has been to war, seen the horrors of war, and isn't afraid to use force if necessary.<BR/><BR/>Iran is mostly bluster and boasting. I wonder if they realize that an attack upon the US (in any form but God forbid in a nuclear one) would lead to the utter destruction of their nation? Such a war on the nuclear level would only take a couple of hours to do. And if they think that Russia and China or the rest of the useless, Dhimmified West would come to their aid, they are sorely mistaken. For Russia and China will not risk all out nuclear war against the US (MAD) and the Dhimmified West in Europe hasn't the balls to do anything but complain.<BR/><BR/>There is hope, hope for a stronger leader, hope for the future.<BR/><BR/>Let's just hope and pray that God sends it to us in a miracle called <B>President</B> John McCain.Findalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02881549378886491540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-71195101290162214262008-09-24T00:54:00.000-07:002008-09-24T00:54:00.000-07:00Well said, Notre Dame.
