1. And if

gravey brain starts a war with Iran..... then we're all screwed, to say the least.

[Neil Lisst]

2. yep, and this trend is going to continue

Bush is going to bomb Iran, and when he does, all sorts of bad things are going to follow, with the price of oil and interest rates both shooting up.

3. The only good thing to come of this would be that Republicans will

be voted out in November. Big time. Like they will lose so many seats they'll have a hard time counting all of them.

I do believe the elections will happen, even if we are at war. That might be a foolish belief to some, but the options are too horrid to consider at this point.

Of course, we must have honest elections that can be audited for accuracy. Without that, nothing else matters.
