Joe Cirincione: Despite bluster, Iran actually in weak position - Daily Kos TV

[BrownLabs]

This guy is a turd. I've seen this windbag in other interviews, his complete lack of bearing and all.

@BrownLabs complete lack of bearing? he's one of the most legitimate public voices on this issue. watch some of other interviews with him, there's a good one from book tv, or read his book. He addresses all the political issues surrounding the actuality of the situation and fleshes it out fairly well.

@naede88 It's all pretty irrelevant when he explodes in an interview asking the opposing voice "who the heck he thinks he talking to", or words to that effect. I personally don't really care who this guy thinks he is or, that he feels entitled to special treatment; it speaks volumes of his character and unwillingness to set down his views in a well thought out professional manner. As to speaking to a much larger issue of national security, his opinions are not in sync with our national interests

@BrownLabs i saw that interview as well, however, it is important to understand the initial goals of gretchen and the other interviewee though. it was all to make joe appear incompetent, that's the nastiest of cable news. I'm telling you, listen to any other serious interview and you'll better understand his perspective. regardless of whether you agree, he gives information without left wing/right wing politics involved. iran isn't an issue that should be debated so hastily, as it has been.
