Target Iran

Lex has been advocating an expansion of the war on terror into two state sponsors of terror, Syria and Iran, for about three years now. It looks as if the president is about to take the first step of initiating the beginning of the precursor of the first stage of the initial phase of starting to confront Iran. Naming Iran’s Revolutionary Guard a terrorist organization is a big deal. That designation allows the administration to freeze funds and cut US funding to anyone who does business with the creeps sending IEDs into Iraq to kill Americans. Trust me the quickest way to a sleazy Frog or Kraut businessman’s heart is through his wallet. When it comes to money and business, the good ol’ USA is a bit of a better bet than Iran.

When the situation escalates, as it surely will, it will put smarmy Eddie Haskell type politicians on the spot. You know the ones, the sanctimonious bags of excrement that are so fond of saying how much they support the troops. Yeah, they support the troops. That is when they aren’t calling the troop’s Commander in Chief a liar, or the troop’s commander on the ground incompetent, or calling the troops themselves, stupid, murderous, cruel, home invaders or saying the troop’s mission is a failure. Other than that, they support the troops 100%.

When Bush asks congress to authorize the military to attack the terrorists attacking our troops in Iraq, those very gasbags are going to have to step up, shut up or admit that they really do not support the troops after all and never really have. But the gasbags will mask their loathing, to use a word once used by a famous “troop supporter” to describe the military, behind a call for more diplomacy or a retreat of US forces from harm’s way. Yeah, that’s right the gasbags will support the troops by calling for their defeat and surrender. Now really, how much more could you support a guy?
