Raw story reports we may attack Iran
Do you think that is the October surprise?

We bring to the attention of our readers this important article by Wayne Madsen. According to the White House sources quoted by Madsen, the Bush Administration is intent on starting "a dangerous war with Iran prior to the election and fear that such a move will trigger dire consequences for the entire world. The sources also report that a draft text of a proposed televised Bush speech to the nation to explain the attack has been prepared."

The implications of Wayne Madsen's report are far-reaching. Surgical strikes against Iran --involving the direct participation of Israel-- could unleash an extension of the war to the entire Middle East region.

1. If the insane crazy basket case we have squatting in the White House
starts to thinking he's gonna lose, I expect him to do just that. He's always been a vengeful little f*** and I expect him to try to start the Armegeddon pronto tonto if he thinks his time is up and he's outta there.

6. He would be out on his ass
IF he were to go into Iran. Even he knows that. It would be the straw that broke the camels back.

8. sallyseven, I agree with you. Bush won't go into Iran before election
But I think we can count on a red alert between now and election day.
Bush has to try and keep the people scared.
