Surprise!
Chit ... not good, not good at all. But, it's the world we live in. Sure wish the Dems could protect us ... but then, they weren't even for missile defense. Now were they?
How the hell did Rove manage this? I tell ya, that guy is FREAKIN amazin'. heh heh heh!
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran test-fired dozens of missiles, including the Shahab-3 that can reach Israel, in military maneuvers Thursday that it said were aimed at putting a stop to the role of world powers in the Persian Gulf region.
The show of strength came as Iran remains locked in dispute with the West over its nuclear program, which Washington says is geared to producing atomic weapons but Tehran says is only for generating electricity. The maneuvers came three days after U.S.-led warships finished naval exercises in the Gulf that Iran branded as "adventurist."


Ummm...Missle defense doesn't work.
And Bush's proposal (TIHS, not terrorism was his national Security priority when he came to office) was to cover only the U.S. not Israel you dumbshit.
And in case you haven't forgotten a Republican is President NOW. It's his failure. Maybe if he hadn't fucked up Iraq, Iran wouldn't feel it could get away with these missle tests.

"ignore that bearded fellow behind the curtain! make no notice of his missiles, nor his ongoing nuclear weapons development program! pass meekly by, and hope he goes quietly back to whipping rape victims!" (*) "anyway, this is all bush's fault!"
that's one helluvva platform the democrats have going there.
* that '90 lashes for the rape victim' story is true. odd that a political party that is so....uh....feminine, as the dems are, would ignore something like that in order to side with the rape-victim-whippers. that's one helluvva platform the dems have there.

"And in case you haven't forgotten a Republican is President NOW. It's his failure. Maybe if he hadn't fucked up Iraq, Iran wouldn't feel it could get away with these missle tests."
And maybe if the left wing in America hadn't played pathetic politics, undermining our troops at every turn and showing only pure hatred towards Bush, and never a willingness to be team players because they lost an election (wa-wa), maybe these little men in Iran and North Korea wouldn't think they could actually be so emboldened. And surely a punk like Chavez would never come here and talk that way either. But no, America has an enemy within who seemingly would love to see us lose simply so that it may serve their political purposes.
The Kerry "joke" was a true reflection of how the left wing in this country really feels, just read and listen to how the left arrogantly defends Kerry, calling him a war hero after he committed treason after coming home from Nam, and now saying basically that he was right about the intelligence level of our troops. And they can't protect us either as they don't have the backbone or maybe they're just too smart to do that.
Our enemies are laughing at how divided we are and THAT is the only reason they are confident. Thank you liberals! Liberals have disgracefully spent a 6 year, non-stop, incendiary bashfest of Bush that's hurting our country by presenting an un-united picture to our enemy during WW3, which is what we're in, and what our enemies believe they are in with us. They have been emboldened by the left wing, press included. How does any newspaper that truly wanted America to win publish classified info, ala the NYTimes.
But I, as an Independent Marine veteran, must also get on George Bush's case about this whole thing because he just plainly takes way too much liberal bullcrap. We need alot more troops in Iraq and Bush should not care what the heck any damn anti-American treasonous liberal, of which there are many, says about it. Especially any Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, Murtha, Dean, and certainly not any pathetic John Kerry, nor Ted Kennedy, who was one of the first to start calling this another Vietnam and emboldening the enemy when it wasn't anywhere near as chaotic as now, and also is now being found to have helped the Russians vs Reagan. Excuse me but, THESE ARE NOT GOOD, SOLID AMERICANS WHO LOVE THIS COUNTRY, so why is our president taking so much garbage off of them??
Vote Democrat?? Think about this folks.

Biensur - Our terrorist enemies are emboldened precisely becasue our Democratic brothers don't think there is a war going on. It's all due to the "evil" George Bush.
The terroists have spent the last few years hoping the Democrats would do another "cut and run from Vietnam." I mean, the terrorist want you to vote Democratic. It's that simple. But oh yes, if we just be nice and do what they say - all will be well. If you truly believe that, then you are a dangerous fool.

Stop being silly. There is absolutely no danger to the US. Our woefully ignorant redneck/whitetrash/colored military are only being used as cannon fodder because we've reached 300,000,000 population and it must be thinned out. The demonrats are perfectly capable of protecting us, hell pay enough tribute and no one will dare harm us. Now run on out and work hard so you can buy heating fuel for people who dont want to work this winter. Nancy Pelosi, speaker of the house.........well, when the demonrats impeach Bush/Cheney, Nancy will be our first woman president.

Rick, let's see your coward butt get out from behind your PC and tell that to the men and women serving our great country to their faces. Bet you don't have the nads. You're not fit to called an American.

Great rebuttal Bobby, why it's almost like you actually know me. Did we meet in Saigon or where? Asshole, I work with these kids EVERY FREEKIN'DAY and assure you that I've done more for them in ten minutes than you have in the last ten years. I was being facetious you dimwit, get your head out of your rather large butt.

I will take Joe Gehr's words from the The Terrorist's Nightmare blog ( http://www.technonllc.com/blog )and ask you: do we really think our "ostrich approach" will solve the Iranian threat to western civilization? I certainly don't!
Who will put an end to this madness and when? For the sake of my children I hope someone does before it's too late!
