Now this scares me. We are falling apart at the seams from every corner of the globe. We look like complete bufoons. I really hope this new threat is taken with serious attention.
Maybe the new Congress can actually do its job and pass a Declaration of War to address this issue - since Zero is unlikely to lift a finger.

There will be no serious attention until there is another one of these occurances:

“We look like complete bufoons.”
I have no interest in having radical Iranians on the same planet as me, but they probably just want the US military out of their neighbors’ territories (Iraq/Afghanistan) and want a bargaining chip to do it (ala Cuba/Turkey). Rather than “staring down” Kruschev, Kennedy simply agreed to remove our missiles from Turkey if he would remove their missiles from Cuba. If you see through the hype, Iran is actually in a precarious position of having to fight a conventional war on 2 fronts against US forces (think of the troop buildup in the Middle East prior to Desert Storm). The fact that we have a Muslim Democrat president must be all the more frightening, because he has all the leeway in the world to do what he wants without any criticism (at least from the US press; the world media apparently realized over the past year that he was just some Muslim thug from Chicago).
