That's right. Nuke em now, Dr. Strangelove. Cause sure as we made a holy mess of it in Iraq, we'd do the same in Iran. And we embargo their oil? I hope you have a bicycle. The Bush Gambit has been the biggest blunder in American history. You still wanna stay the course? Won't be much left of our country.

How do you propose we stop them? We can't nuke 'em, we can't invade 'em and we can't embargo 'em? We can do all those things. It would be easy to nuke Iran. ...easy but highly damaging to anyone downwind from them. We have an army right next door that could invade in a matter of weeks. .....that has been so over extended by the insurgency that they have not been able to make headway. And a blockade (not an embargo) of their oil shipments through the Persian Gulf would hurt them pretty bad. ....while we go into a very deep recession. We've got tremendous ability to hurt Iran, it's the decision of whether to do so that is in question. And why do you think the decision is not being made?
