I am again reminded how back in 2003 the media helped pound on George's war drum getting us into this mess. Wussies who did not bother looking for the truth because they were more concerned about what some dickwad wearing a flag lapel may say about them.
Here we are again. I am seeing the editorials in the New York Times and the Washington Post. Republicans or Democrats, it doesn't matter. It is the less humorous version of John McCain's Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb-bomb-Iran. It's everywhere and building, war with the biggest player in the Middle East which would bring in Nuclear armed Pakistan and World War 3. Iranians are bad, rotten, evil and a threat, that's what the fence down here in Texas is for.
I just saw a little blurb on a man who wants every school student to carry a gun, to make it fair and safe. Can we apply that to the nations? I guess not. Some problems are a step deeper than what we choose to talk about.
Iran is doing nothing we haven't done or are presently doing. Iran has not overreached its regional empire anymore than we have. Iran is just as patriotic and Lord Loving as we are. In fact they may be even more Lord Loving than we are, and ya can't argue with Lord Loving! We have 7,865 nuclear warheads, Iran has 7,865 less than that. And come to think of it, Iran never used atomic weapons on population centers.
On it goes... I can't come up with anything Iran is doing that we have not done, are presently doing or would not do in their place. So whats the problem? And there is the rub, you can't get anywhere with this until this underlying problem is addressed.

The American Government has been a big CIA/Military transport smuggler of cocaine out of S. America since the Reagan Iran/Contra scandals.
Lies are obvious lies, now, that were an excuse for a ground war.
Half the tax dollars paid to war contractors in Iraq can't be accounted for.
If you want to know how the US government works look at a 2007 Documentary on a New York City heroin drug kingpin called "Mr. Untouchable"
It does the math in simple terms of how are government, police, and courts were run, and are now, run.

Sorry, going off on a personal tangent
this sparked.
The US deals in arms and BIG drugs, yet
has doctors locked in prison for giving you a codeine, and the rest quaking in their boots, so gramma dies in agony and the rest of us tough it out so our doc doesn't risk prison.
What's wrong with this picture, and what's the advantage for this corrupt
government?
Funny how many - but not all - of the people who oppose domestic gun control turn around and loudly trumpet a form of international weapon control.
Turns out that just about everyone is for weapon control. "That guy over there is crazy and dangerous and so should be disarmed. My guns (or those of my bodyguards) are GOOD guns which serve a useful purpose." And that includes especially every politician.
Kinda like how even the most Bible-thumpinest, Jesus-lovin' Xtian is an atheist when it comes to other peoples' gods. "That guy embraces superstition and false doctrines; I have the one true faith."
I'm getting ever more pessimistic by the day.
Want to know the funniest part? During the current round of presidential musical chairs, of the three candidates left standing, Obama seems like the most normal one of the bunch. I might could even vote for the man despite his bein' a - you know - Canadian and all. I mean really, how bad actually could he fuck things up? It's not like he could do worse than the current moron.
You sound bitter, its why you cling to guns.
I'll skip the presidential race this year.
