Bush to U.S.: Pandora's Box is Open
Source: MSNBC.COM

MESEBERG, Germany - President Bush threatened Iran on Wednesday with more sanctions if it fails to stop enriching uranium and said all options were on the table to thwart Tehran's nuclear ambitions.

"Both the chancellor and my first choice of course is to solve this diplomatically," Bush told a joint news conference with Merkel.

But he added: "All options are on the table," a reference to the threat of military action to stop Iran's nuclear program, which the West fears is aimed at making atomic bombs. "The message to the Iranian government is very clear," Bush said.

There are no words.

7. Dear Cowardly Congress,
This psychopath has more than enough time to kill another million people before he leaves office. Yet, you don't have time to remove him before he does it again.

Do your constitutional duty and impeach him NOW!

Sincerely,
Dr. Phool

9. You know, impeachment just might occupy so much
of this criminal regime's time and energy that they wouldn't be able to murder any additional Muslims (I mean apart from the on-going murder in Iraq, of course)...

12. Congress isn't going to do shit. They're in it up to their necks themselves.
They voted and approved a resolution calling Iran's military a terrorist organization.

It has been proving that for years.

10. we lose our army in iraq
if bush decides to take action against iran. one of the main reasons for the level of fighting has tampered off in iraq is the iranian influence on the shiite leaders. this has many in the pentagon worried because they know we would have thousands of troops trapped in iraq with no way out...

17. There's a major typo in the original post
Someone wrote "Iran" when they meant "Iraq". This is what was being said about Iraq in 2002. And of course we all know how quickly we found those nukular weapons programs after we shocked and awed an innocent people with illegal war.

22. Just continue to totally ignore Iran's LEGAL "INALIENABLE RIGHT" to enrich uranium.
Laws are only for who and what George W. bUsh says they're for.

And that is the 2nd biggest reason the world despises us.

23. Screw impeachment. Let's just
have him declared criminally insane and have him put away for his own ( and obviously our)good. Isn't there even one psychiatrist in Congress who can start the ball rolling?
