...better check with Bela “the hawk” Pelosi first.
I hope i get to see it
I am convinced that a healthy percentage of losses we have suffered in Afghanistan and Iraq have been as a result of someone speaking out of turn to a reporter or other person who told a reporter and disseminated the info all over the world. I am equally certain some important plans have been aborted for the same reason.
And why aren't some of these warped individuals prosecuted. The laws are in place, use them The public has no “right to know” military battlefield plans. Key congressmen,yes - public, no!!
Shouldn't be hard to figure the date.A weekday after the Dims convention would deliver the correct political message and make the Dims get on board also.
The White House on Tuesday flatly denied an Army Radio report that claimed US President George W. Bush intends to attack Iran before the end of his term.
That's not news. Of course no-one is going to admit they are planning an attack. Kind of takes away tactical surprise. Even if they're not planning an attack, you never let the other side know exactly what your plans are, or are not. That element of uncertainty almost always works in your favor.
It said that while the military option had not been taken off the table, the administration preferred to resolve concerns about Iran's push for a nuclear weapon "through peaceful diplomatic means."
Here again, non-news. Of course diplomatic means are always the preferred option. Only a sociopath would prefer force of arms with all the destruction in men and material that implies.
...that Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney were of the opinion that military action against Iran was called for.
Of course it may be called for, but is it at the point where it is worth it? Some would say military action against Mexico is called for. After all, their citizens keep invading our country. They are literally invading while their own government does little if anything to stem the tide. An invasion? Hey, that merits military action to counter it. But is it worth it? Similarly, Iran has clearly done things to merit a military strike. But the relative cost of such an action must be balanced against the costs and outcomes of other means. (for now)
etc. etc... No real new information here. And this is what these people get paid for? Nice work if you can get it. Re-hash some obvious facts, try to spin a little sensationalism and controversy into it.
Depends - McCain wins election, no attack. ‘bama or Hilly win, attack.
