Hey....bush won't get his war in Iran now

So we can finally put that one to bed. :)

1. And he has a SecDef who believes in detente with Iran

Crazy what one election can do, eh?

3. His new SecDef belongs to a mob that has eyes on Latin America

Don't assume for a minute that one conflict won't be replaced with another.

Remember Reagan trying to sell fear by arguing that the communist enemies could drive from their bases to the US in less than a day? Gates was one of the assholes feeding that hysteria back then.

2. You mean they won't give him unilateral power again?

Our own Dem leadership was pretty anxious to hand it over in 2002.

5. No they won't trust bush to keep his word again like they did with the IAW

4. No. I think his track record in Iraq effectively killed the Iran thing.

But now it's totally kaput, TG.

6. I'm afraid not

Israel's deputy defense minister is threatening to attack Iran's nuclear facility. That could be an excuse to get things started before January.
