What is more concerning is that Obama removed the missle shield in Europe because Gates said that the intelligence changed and that Iran's long range missles are not a threat. I think this makes the administration look so damn stupid it's ridiculous. For years Gates was saying that we needed this land based missile shield because of Iran's threat of long range missiles, now all of a sudden he says that the intelligence changed and we no longer need the shield??? Now Iran comes out and proves them wrong??? WTF?

Greetings',

As has been previously suggeted by the media..... The "North Korea Madman" has provided
a most dramatic and invaluable example of "Ominious Defiance" regarding the continued
"Flight of Missiles" for all the world to witness..... Iran's Leader of course noted those
pitiful and embarrassing so called "Global Responses" and decided to join in the "Fun"
of "High Flying Missiles"..... We logically didn't expect Iran to do any less now
did we ???

Our General Gates has for some time has appeared to demonstrate an excessive tendency
to "Fully Support" ..... absolutely any military plan or scheme hastily thrown together
within the White House.....

The high military rank, training and experience of General Gates should make readily
available to the White House a most respected military professional for utilization
of any and all high level planning & strategy sessions.....

It would be hoped that General Gates would not play the role of a simple "Yes Man"
to this most inexperienced and amateurish Administration perhaps within the last 100
years..... General Gates must begin to strongly apply his wisdom to any military
decisions coming from the White House..... and if need be "Disagree" and strongly
offer viable alternatives to many of those in the White House Administration whom are
basically without a "Clue".....

America's seemingly best and perhaps only choice in this dire matter of "So Many Enemy
Missiles" flying everywhere is to resolve to rapidly improve the number, power and
accuracy of our missle arsenals around the world..... Also in the face of the worlds
"Madmen" and their "Flights of Missles" as of late..... America should test fire some of
it's own new and improved missle versions for the many "Mad Men around the world to
witness .....

I could not believe the news yesterday regarding the Presidents willingness to reduce
America's Nuclear Weapons Numbers Dramatically..... What type of totally dellusional
and naive American leadership and decision making does this represent regarding todays
most dangerous world.....

One very "Old & Time Honored Historical Mainstay" is once again returning in 2009.....
"Whomever possess the best and the most "Slings & Arrows" and deliberately flaunts
them under the noses of the worlds "Weak & Timid" Leaders..... Is a "Conqueror"
without letting fly one arrow.....

May our Nation never , ever experience a shame of this unparalled magnitude !!!
Thanks / L.F.

As it happened, the occupation was messed up in every conceivable way, so that'll remain hypothetical.
But we have no reason to attack Iran either.

I agree.


"They hate us because we're free ! They are jealous"

"They might nuke us one day"

"They are all wife beaters"

"They have a false god"

Remember that "deadline" obama gave Iran to open up and allow inspectors in?

Not so fast.

State Dept.: Iran inspection deadline not 'hard-and-fast' - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room

Quote:
A State Department spokesman on Friday signaled that the president's mandate that Iran has two weeks to permit inspections of its recently unveiled uranium refinement plant was not "written in stone."

"I don't think that there's a hard-and-fast deadline," State Department spokesman Ian Kelly said during Friday's press briefing, after a reporter asked what the consequences of Iran's inaction might be.
Weak, weak, weak.

Weak, weak, weak.
Obama has NO authority to tell Iran anything. The agreement between Iran and the IAEA is between Iran and the IAEA. Anyone with a basic understanding of this situation would know this.

You are free to bring this ridiculous Obama hate fest circus everywhere you go but it gets old, tired and WEAK WEAK WEAK.

What about this ?

My Way News - Iran's president says Obama made a big mistake

Mr A criticises Obama. That ought to rile up a few O bashers. Iran broke laws, or they didn't ? The rabid neocons are ready to pounce. Always ready to pounce.

Iran Test Fires 2 Short-Range Missiles, doesn't Iran make Obama look like a fool!

Considering this is the original topic, I'm still trying to understand how this makes Obama or anyone for that matter, look a fool.
