Can somebody please get our fearless leader to drop his Jones for Midde Eastern War, park his rear on AirForce One, and get back here to work on problems in the USA?
President Bush said Sunday that Iran is threatening the security of the world, and that the United States and Arab allies must join together to confront the danger "before it's too late."

The unemployment rate leaps to a two-year high, record numbers of people are forced from their homes and Wall Street nose-dives again. Such is the fallout from a housing meltdown that threatens to slingshot the country into a recession

Iran is THE single most important issue our country is facing right now. The President didn't cause and shouldn't try and solve the so called housing meltdown !
Yes, Silas, people in small boats zooming around our billion dollar world-destroying ships is THE most important issue of our times. That, despite the admission from the Pentagon that the event's threat level was grossly exaggerated. Let's not let logic enter our reality, shall we? While we're at it, let's also coat Bush with Teflon because every sane person knows he's not at fault for anything.
Forgive me. I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. I do, however, share in your assessment that the president is not at fault for our economic problems (the economy has too slow a metabolism to attribute its current condition to any sitting President). But, it IS his fault to not address the problem. His penchant for wearing blinders whenever he sees the problems real Americans face is particularly odious. Does he think that war with Iran will be an economic boon for us? Is that why he's saber-rattling?
If you want Iran to be the biggest issue, then FEAR must be your biggest emotion. It isn't my biggest emotion. Mine is anger, a far more productive catalyst when coupled with intelligence. I wish it was peace, but, sadly, I'm not there yet.
