I know Wall Street is crumbling, but Washington needs to start paying attention:
Putin’s in bed with Hugo Chavez.
North Korean Nukes are back in business.
Iran is keeping on keeping on.
Pakistan is playing chicken with US Troops in Afghanistan.
Turkey playing war games against Kurds in Iraq.
President Bush will most certainly go down in history as the worst President in American History and one of the worst leaders of all time.
Azerbaijan has prevented a shipment of Russian nuclear equipment from getting to Iran. Pretty damn good news if you asked me. It’s going to take more than the United States or France to reign in Iranian Mullahs (not to mention circumnavigating Putin’s rogue policies). Thank you, Azerbaijan!
Five British citizens who were kidnapped in Iraq over a year ago are being held inside Iran by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. … Um, this ain’t good news: a direct link between terrorism inside Iraq and the government of Iran. Right. This will give the US more reason to consider military force against Iran for its meddling with Iraq. Basically, this nightmare just got prolonged. Ugh.
Seriously. 
Leave it to “President” Bush to unite the Republicans and Democrats. Both parties are strongly condemning his approach at bringing the North Koreans to the negotiating table. Congress wants full disclosure of North Korea’s nuclear programs in return for fuel and food aide to the repressive regime. Bush is willing to settle for much less: full disclosure of North Korea’s nuclear ambitions in Syria (a situation that we and the Israelis are already on top of).
Bush’s ridiculous attempts at diplomacy would be comical if they didn’t concern the safety of humankind itself!
And lest we forget: what other hostile regime has begun to develop and will attain nuclear weapons on Bush’s watch? The government of Iran.
Thanks, Bush!
Muqtada al-Sadr is threatening full-scale war with the US in Iraq. 
Listen up White House: do you plan on doing anything about this guy and his army? We tried fighting him (via the “Iraqi National Army”) in Basra and lost. Maybe it’s time for a different approach? A little “thinking outside of the box”? A little nuance.
Calling Tehran to the table to negotiate a peace, a truce, an anything! (You know it’s bad when you need Iranian mullahs to wax diplomatic on your behalf.)
Like it or not, al-Sadr cannot be ignored. He is and will remain a permanent fixture of Iraqi life. And we can’t go in there and simply “obliterate” him in some Sadr City bloodbath - that will only make things worse.
Where is the State Department?! Where is the Pentagon?! Where is the White House?!?!?
Message to Bush: Start doing your (insert expletive) job!!!
Drumbeat of war that is. U.S. officials are finally waking up and smelling the coffee, realizing that Iran has more influence over Iraq than they do. … And Iran doesn’t want the U.S. in Iraq. Shocker! Anyone with a layman’s knowledge of history (or who’s read the headlines for the past 5 years) could connect these dots. … So U.S. officials are sounding the alarm and once again accusing Iran of training and suppling weapons to anti-American Shi’ite militias inside Iraq. And of course what is their first response: WAR! Ugh.
Note to the Bush Administration: a war with Iran is not going to fix your legacy. Or redeem you in the history books. Get a clue.
Why don’t we start actively engaging Tehran with diplomacy??? Haven’t tried that route yet. And nothing
we’ve done so far has produced any good results. Just a thought. Duh.
Obviously, Tehran is just as guilty here - more so - of stoking the passions of war. Most of the mullahs are simply trying to prove their worth by poking a stick at America. Mullahs: wake up! This pissing contest will not turn out good for you. It’s time for Iran to put away their weapons and rhetoric and start revisiting their wonderful poetry. Calling on the spirit of Hafiz!
Iran is still playing chicken with American warships in the Persian Gulf! When are these mullahs going to wake up?! None of us (the citizens of America and Iran) want a showdown between our two countries. Come on now, let’s work this out already!
Way to go mullahs! We ain’t gonna get no Armageddon if ya’ll put down that uranium. Jeez. Sooo glad we attacked Iraq! Read the story.
