2. If only it had been up to us -- |

if only we had the power they tell us we do.
During the SFRC hearings on Iraq last week, I got the impression -- when Iran was referenced -- that the SFRC was having none of it. They know it's all bullshit, and they seem to know the reality of the situation on the ground over there.
Unfortunately the SFRC doesn't have the final word - but again, my impression is that there would be steps taken to ensure we do NOT go into Iran if Bushco actually tries to pull it off.

but it might happen so fast and unexpectedly that we don't have a chance to do anything and then it is too late and the "we're at war" meme rules.

and this was way back when he was still running for Prez. He said "if this guy starts dropping bombs in Iran" -- he would use the weight of his position as the Chairman of the SFRC to "persuade" Congress to impeach.
You could tell, when he was saying it, that he was furious at even the thought of Bush attempting something like that. AGAIN.
