Rush Limbaugh, American Hero
I can see it now... The Republitoads take back the House in 2010. They spend the next two years trying to impeach Obama. Nothing gets done. The Democrats, demoralized and disgusted, stay home in 2012; the Troglodytes elect Scary Palin. Scary Palin drops nukes on Iran, India drops nukes on Pakistan, Pakistan drops nukes on Israel, Scary Palin drops nukes on North Korea, China drops nukes on us.... the world blows up and Jeeeeezzzzzuuuuusssss comes back and takes all the Troglodytes home.
Then the Democrats take back what's left of the government.
I can't wait.
If you are concerned with 'irrational religious fanatics', perhaps you'd better take a closer look at the political Party you are currently leading.
Bush didn't go into Iran, because he had no real grasp of foreign policy and that accidentally worked to his benefit in this one lone instance.
The economy is actually improving under Obama, not like under Bush before him. I understand that the more poor people there are in America, the bigger your own personal pile of wealth looks, but what's good for your bubble thin ego is not necessarily good economic policy for the country. How very short sighted of you. How very typical of you.
Did you really just claim that the entire world could be held hostage by one tiny middle eastern country with a bomb that could someday be put on a missile? I think there is a country that still has the ability to destroy the entire planet, what? 15 times over? And, they are facing a rising tide of a very similar group of irrational religious fanatics. They follow a different deity, but it's the same basic principle. And guess what? Not only do you LIVE in that country, but you deliberately stir up the fanatics!
Rush, quite trying to destroy the world. Considering the wreck you've made of your own life, perhaps you should take a break, and concentrate on the one thing you can control: yourself. Put the pills down, put the little boys down, and see if you can't finally find the courage to become a decent human being. 'Til then? STFU.
What interested me, aside from DoD short-sightedness, was that the author of that article tried very very hard to pin this capability to Iran. I think Limbaugh is just part of the circle-jerk trying to ramp us up into another pointless war.

Oh, and I looked at the site mentioned (by name of software):

Worked really well in Vietnam, didn't it?
Perhaps a few salient questions ought to be asked of the GOP about this war that they want.
1. Currently 2/3 of our military is wrapped up in Iraq and Afghanistan. You would suddenly go from an insurgent war to a full on shooting war. Casualties would be massive. The US simply doesn't have the manpower to open up a third front without a draft.
2. How EXACTLY do you keep China and/or Russia from providing material support to Iran.
3. Most importantly. I could guarantee you that China won't loan us money in order to wage war against one of their main oil suppliers. If they turn off the tap, how exactly do we pay for this war.
Conservatives literally don't think that there are any consequences for the ideas they trot out.
Republicans are against efforts to reform health care because they don't want to pay their taxes now, and they don't want to pass on debt to their grandchildren.
They're all for pre-emptive wars, although they still don't want to pay taxes, and have no problem at all passing the debt onto their grandchildren.
I'd bet that under a "permanent Republican majority" their grandkids would have much greater chances of dying by terrorist attack and treatable medical problems.
And may the locusts that visited Egypt, fly up your butt.
He grows a pair 39 years too late (thank you Victor).
If he were half the man in 1969 that he is today... why.. why he'd...
Ahh, forget it, he'd still be too fat for the draft.
That would be Ol' Rushie's first act. He would love that.
Scary!
