Drumming up support for an attack?
I am very concerned about the chickenhawks duping the public into a war with Iran and so when I heard on the latest CBS newscast that now military officials, including Rummy, are now saying that Iran is helping the insurgency, it made my blood run cold. Here we go rattling the drums of war yet again while ignoring other more volatile countries with nukes and oh yeah, where is Osama? http://www.voanews.com/english/2006-06-22-voa75.cfm

1. Get used to it. It's "Dems" are gutless appeasers time again.
We'll be hearing this until November. They have no shame and no sense of the commonweal.

Republicans are real good at winning elections. They stink as leaders.

2. Of course Iran is helping the insurgency...
...and of course "we" are going to attack them.
Neocons are nothing BUT war drums and obfuscation.
Osama is safe in western China.
2007 and 2008 are going to be the bloodiest years in human history.
Get used to it!

4. And no neocon can tell
me that this wasn't foreseen. I mean really. You attack a nation of mainly Shia muslims who had been severely oppressed by a brutal dicatator yet you do not fix anything that you promise. Now they are surprised that the mainly Shia majority in Iran is helping the insurgency. They couldn't see this? Oh brother. What idiots!

5. The media press is starting to heat up
Iran is going to be in hyper drive now. Discovery is airing a hostage crisis special to remind everyone how evil the Iranians are and how much murikans hate them.
