There is concrete evidence of Iran's influence in Iraq. The question is it simply rogue elements in the QUDS force of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corp (IRGC) or has Iran's Supreme Leaders ordered this. The corrupt political hacks in the Senate decided it was authorized by the IRGC with absolutely NO EVIDENCE. Didn't we make that mistake once before? Please help vote these clowns out of office before they do more damage!

you obviously haven't seen Gravel in action. I've never seen a man take down his opponent with such fire and actually have genius proposals.

Its usually silly claims of un-patriotism and homphobia. *cough* republicans *cough*

I found the comment Clinton made about Bobby Kennedy's assassination during an election as a reason for her to stay in this election is quite disturbing. What was she thinking?

[badboypass]

Has Israel taken into account an attack on their Dimona nuclear power station by Iran or Syria? Don't need a nuclear bomb if you bomb a nuclear power station!

Runningchance,

War only brings freedom in exchange for

-Destruction of their homes/towns/cities

-Shutdown of all schooling(including collage)

-Mass exodus from the region of warfare

-655,000+ Civilian deaths to date (war/sectarian violence)

-Loss of family & friends

-Civil War

etc. etc.

Their is no easy freedom, and creating people who have lost everything with nothing left to loose, is creating a terrorist!

Runningchance,

We DO NOT deserve they're oil.

How about Cuba has just as much right to all our agricultural goods like corn. We're so fat, we don't need it right!? Can I get an amen?

You show incredible bias and ignorance by assuming they're all on camels that don't need gas... Seems you don't have a clue what their society/culture looks like. They're industrializing like crazy. They need oil to grow their economy, just like we want it to prolong our rise before the world runs out.

[MooseOfReason]

Still go? Is he still against the 2nd Amendment? Does he still want UN "Peacekeeping" forces in Iraq?

[runningchance]

I will be glad when we get that oil over in Iran and give their people the same freedom that Iraq now enjoys. We deserve the oil and we have just as much right to it as the Iranians do. Afterall, you don't need gasoline to ride a camel. Can I get a Amen?
