Poll question: Once again: Will the chimp bomb Iran in a preemptive strike?
I think it's a win-win for him. His oil buddies will make a fortune selling us $5.00 a gallon gas AND the American people will line up in support as they alway do during a big war.

If I were you, I would hurry and buy stock in Exxon-Mobil and Chevron-Texaco because their tax free dividends will be HUGE once Iran retaliates and oil becomes scarce.

2. NO doubt about it
Reports were we already have special forces on the ground. How long before we openly cross the border to "persue retreating terrorists"? How long before we bomb "terrorist camps" on the Iranian side of the border? They already have nukes and probably WMDs which is in itself a reason(to some people) to invade a country.

3. NO Iran might have a nuclear bomb
The Chimperor never picks a fair fight.

This is why North Korea can thumb their nose at the U.S. so freely.

Chimpy will never pick on someone his own size.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
--John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

4. I hope you're right.
But now that he has a mandate he will feel emboldened to exercise his rights as emperor.

5. Unlike the Israelis...
who bombed Iraq's reactors before they went online, it would not suprise me if we nuked Iran's afterwards just to make more of a mess.
