1. Y'all have lost your damn minds.
Or you've just suddenly decided to become neo-cons and hop on board with the PNAC agenda...

5. They have become warhawks...
their candidate just revealed a warhawk policy.. They haven't been using logic to support Hillary so far... they have to adapt her policies in order to justify supporting her... because they are too attached to drop their support.

6. Kind of like CPUSA in the 30s.
Turn on a dime, never look back.

11. We don't need to organize a new country. Team Hillary has taken up residence in Neocon Fantasyland.

Most of them should be back after the party forces her to step down.

4. Even by your consistantly low flamebait standards this is dumb beyond measure.
Amen.

7. What happened to DU?
Suddenly threatening to attack and obliterate countries is cool.

9. Sad to see Hillaryworld endorsing Dick Cheney's most radical Iran proposals.
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 12:11 PM by Occam Bandage
Seriously, think about it. You are endorsing a plan that Dick Cheney proposed, and which the Bush administration decided was too insane even for them.


I remember when y'all were Democrats.

12. I don't believe some of them ever were really Democrats at all.
Nobody who advocates "preemptive" war qualifies, in my opinion.

13. I recall many of DU's bomb-Iran faction were Democrats at one point. They're just a bit warped now.

10. What?
A cruise missile can take hours to reach its target. By that time the war is over.

An ICBM kills millions of innocent survivors.

It is NOT viable! We are NOT VIABLE to use anything but Air Force attacks with guided munitions (Mavericks) against the military of Iran.
