The issue is Iran

The contest between Barry and John McCain may do-si-do around many an ancillary issue,  but Thomas Sowell says the only one of importance is dealing with a nuclear Iran–the world’s chief sponsor of terrorism. Voting for McCain, the only man with experience in war as well as peace, is therefore a no-brainer. Makes sense to me.

Maybe Mahmoud ain’t so mad

Afterall, he’s getting away with murder in Iraq, and the Bush administration and Congress ain’t doing nothin’, while Barry talks about a sit-down to understand Mahmoud’s pain.

UPDATE: So, when Bush does the only thing he ever does about this matter, i.e. talk, he manages to enrage Barry, Hilarity, Nancy, etc. For why? Because they won’t do anything, either, and don’t like to be reminded. Such unanimity.

Gen. Petraeus reports

Whatever Nancy Pelosi intended to stop the general from saying, it doesn’t seem to have worked. He poked Iran in the eye several times. Will we do anything more? Remains to be seen, I suppose. It all certainly sounds as complicated as Viet Nam ever was, though, obviously, with more potential immediate impact on our daily lives, and not nearly as out-of-control. Hope and change, it seems, are already in progress–without, of course, Barry and his dictator-loving advisors and their back-to-the-Saddam-era intentions.

Austin cleanup

If this was the law in Texas and Ahmadamadingdong was governor-for-life, we’d be having these little  show trials at least daily, for years and years, in Austin. Especially with all the Californicators who’ve moved here lately. But it would never happen. Too many of us wouldn’t put up with this nonsense, and we’re already well armed and feisty. It’s a good reminder, however, of why Obama’s really- none-too-bright idea of negotiating with these folks is absurd.

Stonings

On the CBS drama "Cold Case", it’s Christians who do it to fornicating women. So very bold of CBS television to attribute the barbaric murder to a Christian sect, don’t you know. In Iran, it’s actually being done by the the Islamic state, where Columbia U.’s invited speaker, Mahmoud the Mad, is president. Not sure what happened to the man on CBS’s "show." In the Iran case, the fellow "got off" with "only" a hundred lashes.

Where’s the beef, George?

"The Bush Presidency is running out of time to act if it wants to stop Iran from gaining a bomb. With GIs fighting and dying in Iraq, Mr. Bush also owes it to them not to allow enemy sanctuaries or weapons pipelines from Iran. If the President believes half of what he and his Administration have said about Iran’s behavior, he has an obligation to do whatever it takes to stop it."

Less talk and more action would be a good idea, both for the present and for the future. 

Mahmoud mocked

So Columbia invited Mahmoud the Mad to speak so they could mock and insult him? There’s a twist.
