He would have been aware that pressure was about to be placed upon Iran, and he was giving them some ammo.

This is a PaulBot, Ronulan, Paulian, or whatever they are called. He’s a sick, vile, twisted piece of excrement. Don’t waste your time.

And the president is responsible for the muslim terrorist attacks?

LevStrauss on May 27, 2008 at 3:09 PM

So, the president sets the price of oil?

There is as much in the “who” as in the “what” regarding his statement. As an ex-president his words have a bit more consequence than the average person, even though he is doing his level best to remedy that situation. And by stating it, he gives the Iranians a bigger bargaining chip and another excuse to stall.

His biggest error here is stating a fact when your President is trying to give you $200 barrel oil and WW III.

Don’t be silly. Bush has to do those things. After engineering Hurricane Katrina and piloting those planes into the World Trade Center what else is there for an encore?

If you are going to debate over war with Iran then Israel’s “secret” arsenal has to be one of the premises in your decision making no matter where you come down on the topic. This whole hush hush garbage needs to go or at least stay with those that wish to remain ignorant.

Wait a minute. Is this Jimmy Carter?

This is the funniest thing about the “new breed” of “conservative”. Carter states something that everyone with a brain cell already knows and all this idiotic whining.

You know whats funnier? A shill for an anti-semitic POS that has the unmitigated gall to lecture “conservatives” on the putative moral equivalency of Israel and Iran. Dumba$$.

Man Without A Country’ comes to mind. Maybe sailing on the USS Jimmy Carter, as a mess steward.

Please. The nuclear Navy managed to get rid of Jimmy when he was a Lieutenant, and feels good that he was gotten rid of at that time. I don’t need him anywhere near any of our nuclear reactors anymore, even as a Mess Cook. The Emergency Procedures in the Reactor Plant Manuals are complex enough without needing to add chapters on how to handle a Loss of Jimmy’s Brain Accident (LJBA).

Step 1. Silence the alarm(ist ex-President).
Step 2. Inject makeup brain into ex President. If his mouth moves, proceed to Step 3. Otherwise reset the alarm.
Step 3. Tie a dozen Trash Disposal Unit weights around his ankles.
Step 4. Load ex Pres in Trash Disposal Unit (TDU)
Step 5. Conduct TDU operations (shoot trash overboard).
Step 6. File Missing Lost Stolen Report (MLSR) on TDU weights as expensive lost items.
Step 8. Proceed on patrol.

Sounds like more time and effort than my sailors need to spend on Jimmy to me.

Subsunk out.

If Carter is just making stuff up, you can’t prosecute him for being insane.

but it certainly would give a certain satisfaction.

Damn right it would.

Once you piss off the UN, you only have 700 chances to make things right.

Seriously…..at least 17.

“Pineapple? I thought my number was on that one.”

Ah, yes, the “strongly worded letter”. Followed by the “letter of condemnation”. Then comes the “threat of sanctions”, followed by the “And this time I really mean it” letter.

Matticus Finch on May 27, 2008 at 12:54 PM

And then comes the “Double Secret Probation” letter as outlined in a lesser know codicil to the IAEA charter…

No, I know, I’m better than that. Still…

How is it that our country can have so many jackasses with so much influence and power?

Because people, since the dawn of time, have always been baffled with BS!

Not until Barak takes the oath. It puts the heel of the boot exactly where they want it.

a capella on May 27, 2008 at 12:50 PM

Add my nick to the list of those who agree.

IAEA is trying to document how they detected the Iranian nuclear threat ‘and tried to warn the world about the danger’.

Iran must be getting close to a nuclear test.

Hmmm….
