There was no way Pres.Bush could have done Iran.
The democrats villifing the Iraq war changed public discourse. The war became very unpopular.
At this point there was no chance to rally support behind
an Iran war.
Thank the MSM and the left for destroying the chance
to K.O. terrorism.
As for Zero he’s in a catagory by himself. A true America hater. Zero has capitulated to Putin’s wish to vacate
missile defense.
Too much Savage eh?
Too heavy to be transported by air....
And during the peak of the “biggest bang for the lightest weight/smallest size”, in the early-mid 1960’s— the US built and fielded the B-41 thermonuclear bomb. It weighed a bit over 5 tons—and produced 25 MEGATONS of yield. The B-52 would have NO problem carrinyg this bomb—which was capable of pretty much “removing” about 30 miles radius from the blast point of “real estate”—and all else— in total.
And the US wanted to ‘go farther” and produce a 35MT warhead for the Titan II—that would have weighed LESS than 4 tons!!
“Too big for transport”—indeed. A “harbor blaster”, such as a W-54, of less than a KT yield, and less than 100 pounds..weight, could be delivered by a remote—controlled MODEL boat!!
That is American ingenuity for ‘ya. At one time..this country could do ANYTHING it wanted to.... No doubt...had the “science bug” had stayed with us—as it was 40-60 years ago, we COULD have had fusion power, fuel—cell auto power plants of reasonable price, and even maybe matter—transfer technology..(IOW—”beam me up, Scotty”) but now..it seems like the “best and the brightest”—and the money for them— are a thing of the past, and people just want to watch American idol, and fund worthless things like environmental junk .
Impossible, Chairman Maobama just nixed the missile shield in Eastern Europe because Iran was nowhere near accomplishing these little foibles.
If Mahmoud Ahmadinenutcase gains hold of the bomb, and mates it to Shahab-3 MRBMs, he would be able to accomplish a feat surpassing Adolf Hitler. But will it happen? Satan would be salivating from hell, that Iran now has the bomb it can use against Israel.
File under “D” for...DUH!
Instead he chose to do absolutely nothing. Just like he did with NK. This is now coming back to haunt us in a big way.
As for your "Savage" statement, I will assume you mean "Michael Savage", is this the new "Racist" mantra from the "Bush can do no wrong" crowd?
Just as an FYI, I don't listen to Savage, I do however listen to Mark Levin and Rush. But don't let facts cloud your judgment.
"So let me be clear: Iran's nuclear and ballistic missile activity poses a real threat, not just to the United States, but to Iran's neighbors and our allies. The Czech Republic and Poland have been courageous in agreeing to host a defense against these missiles. As long as the threat from Iran persists, we will go forward with a missile defense system that is cost-effective and proven. (Applause.) If the Iranian threat is eliminated, we will have a stronger basis for security, and the driving force for missile defense construction in Europe will be removed. (Applause.)
About the 39th paragrah down here

This is another example of President Obama’s endlessly nuanced mendacity. In his column today, “Does He Lie?”, Charles Krauthammer writes, “Obama doesn’t lie. He implies, he misdirects, he misleads — so fluidly and incessantly that he risks transmuting eloquence into mere slickness.”

Further, he allows others, like Jimmy Carter to lie on his behalf. He bobs and weaves; he dances; shifting and equivocating to different audiences, in varied venues, on different continents. One version for the Russians, another for the Czechs, still another for the generals, and yet another for the party faithful. He is the worst sort of liar; one who is deliberate and highly skilled. In an age where every move and word is recorded, I pray he is “too clever by half.”
I’m 100% in agreement the Cloward-Piven strategy is being put into effect right now. Saudi and Soros are the benefactors... If you read the strategy in detail it is right on target...unfortunately.
