But what if President Clinton is in charge?
If we just stop and think a minute or so about such a possiblity can one keep from vomiting up breakfast as well as last night's dinner?
Many (unfortunately) Americans are so freaking stupid that the possibility of this happening is the greatest threat that America has ever faced.
The confused gender "wife" of a serial rapist ex-governor of Arkansas travels up to New Yarkansas and gets elected senator in order to fulfill her perverted childhood fantasy. Just unbelievable!
In cases like this it is a mistake to try to rescue. Rescues are suicide missions. The correct approach is to hold the hostage taking country hostage. Start a 12 hour clock ticking... make it clear that Tehran will be a very unpleasant please when the twelve hours are up unless all of the hostages are out of Iran before the time expires. The message should be communicated privately to Iran's leaders.
how the mighty have fallen
No, time to lay a conventional weapon into downtown Qom. Show 'em you mean business.
Inasmuch as Denmark is also a Charter member nation, and it's sovereign territory was physically attcked last year over the "cartoon" thing, I guess you can only draw your own conclusion about Nato membership, even as I have done...

In some areas (the sanctity of life, for one), he is stronger than Reagan. One of those areas is in the appointment of SC justices. They are even and both wrong, IMO on immigration.
Just for the historical record, conservatives were down on Reagan at this point in his second term, and far beyond that.
They woke up eventually to what some of us already knew.........that Reagan was great.
Some day, those of you who are missing the boat on President Bush will wake up too.
And I promise not to say "I told you so" when you do. :)
Wheres Jessie Jackson when you need him? LMAO!!
Take your moralizing and use it as a suppository. Letting these tinpot dictators get whatever they want because of drama queens like you is how we got WWII. We need to stop this now before it becomes WWIII.
I know this will sound like an "Internet tough guy" post, but I mean it. Had I been commanding HMS Cornwall, I would have opened up on the Iranians with the 4.5 inch gun up forward, and if the brass wanted to try and court martial me when I got home, I guess I'd just have to suck it up.
Listen to me, and listen to me good, because you will take this as more chest thumping, but you better believe that I'm talking about stopping violence, not increasing it.
When a man, say a guy who is President of Iran, stands up and says, "World, I'd just like you to know that there's a whole country I'd like to wipe out, every man woman and child, make 'em dead as a door nail," there's only one appropriate and moral response from the world community. They should kill him before the day is out.
That's right, they should kill him. Any of the times this guy said he wanted to eliminate Israel, there should have been so many planes from so many air forces stacked up over his house with bombs that we had to send air traffic controllers in to make sure they didn't collide. We could have let them immulsify his terrorist ass alphabetically. "Algeria, you're cleared to roll in hot on the target. Mind the Albanian MiG climbing out over the rubble pile. Good day sir."
We sat around and picked our nose back in the Thirties when some crazed nutbar got ahold of a country and said he wanted to kill every Jew. You may be aware of the little conflict that resulted. They called it WWII. It only cost tens of millions of people.
We need to deal with this guy or your kids will be in a war. Or maybe they will have peace...because maybe they'll be jiahdi Muslims--bowing to the twisted moon god Ahmadinejad worships--and liking it.
If someone isn't willing to agree with you bunch of yahoos they must be a Democrat, this forum used to have a more intellectual conversation about 5 years ago now all we have are abunch of chest thumping, bible thumping yahoos.
That's funny...I joined this forum almost seven years ago and I don't remember any threads where people agreed we should all take crap from anti-Semites and let whole countries get wiped out. Maybe I was out of town that day. By the way, thanks for the slap against Christians...trust me sweetheart, nobody needs to hear the voice of God to get this one.
If you all want war so bad sign up! Go on over!
I did my bit when I was young and slim. Now I'm old and pudgy. But other young, slim men are willing to fight this one so your kids don't have to. And unlike you, they realize that when a man wants to kill little children for his god, he has no purpose on this earth other than as a range target.
We're trying to save your children, Israel's children, even Iran's children. We might fight a short war against military targets, or even just kill one guy, and stop a nuclear holocaust that would kill millions. If you can't figure that one out, take your broken moral compass and wander off somewhere out of the way of humans who have brains.
Oh, and be sure to read my tagline. It was written for the likes of you.
Actually, I think the kind of idolization (not that I've seen from you) of Reagan that goes on from some around here diminishes his true greatness.
But the point of what they are doing in mythologizing Reagan is to belittle the great man who now leads us.............and they don't hide it very well.
In Reagan's second term, there were plenty of conservatives who bashed Reagan mercilessly, but I was not one of them. His true greatness was always visible to those with eyes to see it.
The same is true with President George W. Bush. He is an honorable, courageous man and a great leader and my fellow conservatives will recognize that some day.
The pseudo-cons probably won't, but their opinion isn't worth a hill of beans.....
HMS Cornwall could have, should have stopped it then!
Are they new ?
They look good.
