Would Conservatives Back Obama Striking Iran?
« on: July 30, 2010, 07:21:04 PM »
Or would apprehensions about his dedication and understanding of military matters weigh too heavily on our minds?

Do you think he would be man enough to order the stikes then allow the adults to run the show?

Would we be in it for the long haul or do we expect a limited duration to such a war?

Discuss.

Non-question.  Amadinnerjacket could drop a nuke in the middle of Times Square and Obowma would blame us for it.

A mad dinner jacket.  Love it.

A better question might be, " if Iran bombed Israel, would Obama seek a UN censure of Israel for provoking it??"

THAT I could see him doing.  And sadly, a lot of the idiots in P-town North would probably applaud it, like Norelli and the rest of the coffee klatch crowd.

Any way we can keep Dover, Durham, and Portsmouth from voting in November?

If he was serious about going to and winning a war with Iran, I'm sure all true Americans would back him.  Unfortunately, I also believe he'd be more likely to bomb Israel.

I would have grave misgivings about whether he had the remotest conception of what he was doing.  And frankly, we do not have the available force structure to do anything more than an in-and-out operation.  Despite their displeasure with Akhmahakhbedamned, the Iranians are quite nationalistic and would defend their country very vigorously, it would be a huge mistake to think otherwise.

But the big problem is that the place isn't really run by the government that might conceivably be taken out with a well-timed nuke (Which Obama would never have the balls to use anyway), it's run by a dispersed and large group of conservative mullahs.  Normally an air offensive that killed most of the government senior leadership and took out the bulk of the nuke operation would have a good chance of working, but in Iran it probably wouldn't.  Going in on the ground, beyond raiding the nuke facilities to pump them for intel and then blowing them up and leaving, is not a serious option at this point.

1) He doesn't have the balls to do it.
2) If he does, he'll screw it up with needless complications put in place by a liberal administration.
3) They'll leek the information to the press anyway.

Dear Dutch,

As time goes by, I am beginning to reverse everything I see or read about our administration.

Have we ever had any leader in this country that was as much like Tim Conway in Machale's Navy ???


I do not believe anymore, that this Obama is in the least bit incompetent or clueless.

This has to be by design, his mess ups, his seemingly strange behavior traveling the world apologising to the world for the past transgressions of America.  How about when he allowed Mexico to address our lawmakers and make demands on us

This in some way causes us to dismiss him as being spineless, not having the balls or the ability to be a leader.  As he bumbles about, as we think, he is on a divide and conquer quest not just for America but for as much of the rest of the world that  he can open the door to for future conquests.

In some ways he reminds me of Claudius, the stuttering fool that survived due to the feelings that he was so incompetent he was no threat.

Nope this human is taking some lessons from history, he knew when he appointed his Czars that some would be found to be unsuitable and when let go, the people would just shake their heads and call him and his administration damn fools.[ Then the public has no worries, after all he will be voted out after first term]  Yeah Right.

I don't even trust the division and outing of the Democratic party leaders, it would not surprise me one bit if this is a way to get rid of people, the old timers to make way for people that are even more easily controlled.

Nope I believe Obama may in fact be so ballsy that in an off guarded moment he may from temper or slip up, cause world wide panic, distruction, then blame it on BUSH.

This Obama and his mentors are extremely dangerous to us.   Some of us laugh at  clowns, others are scared to death of them.

I am going to start taking bets that if Obama gets a second term, within a few months the 2 term limit on the presidency will be over turned and back to the days of unlimited terms.

It's not a good idea to try to read too much into vesta's posts, like assuming she voted for Zero based on that one.  She generally means exactly what she says and no more, of course it's usually fairly difficult to figure out just what the Hell most of the post actually meant anyway.

Oh, to be able to go to the SCC crowd and ask, "How's that hopey-changey thing working out for ya?"  Especially the more vocal Obamanauts like Cujo, Athena...come to think of it, pretty much all of the ones that didn't move here were chugging the Kool-Aid.

Any attack by Lörd Zerø would be hamstrung and half assed (that is assuming he would order one in the first place). All Ahamdinijad would have to do is hold the Strait of Hormuz hostage until The Spineless One backs down, and he would in no time.

Prehaps we could coax Vesta to tell us again why she supported the most inexperienced, Hafrican Amerikan for the most powerful position in the world.  (cough, cough)  I would also love to see an appology LTE in the local fish wrap posted here. 





Before her home planet exploded Vesta was well infomed about the snake she would carry across the river.

It does, sadly, highlight the basic flaw in democracy.  Someone who just has hot lusty cravings for one of the candidates, or is simply cuckoo for Coacoa Puffs in general, gets a vote that counts exactly the same as that of someone who actually understands what he or she is doing.

I love the jobs graph telling us the economy is recovering--the one put out by San Fran Nan.  Oh, Athena gushing over Madcow...gee, what a surprise there.

Lots of links to pron if you're interested, though!  Pretty much all that's been there in the last six months...  :lmao:
