Well, not quite yet. Iran looks ripe for bludgeoning. After all, polls show that the average voter (independents in particular), wants to go shopping and that requires a lot of war. It's nice that both parties love war and keep us awash in death and destruction. They've even made contract killers into heroes. Just because an elected official decides it's okay to kill someone does not make it anything but murder. Oh, the DOD budget blues might be alleviated with a touch of war in Iran. Don't forget, we've been warring for so long that private sector workers in the defense industry have worked long enough to retire. Do you think the budget will revert to pre-Bush levels? Come on, war is good for elections and retail sales.
Navy wants commando ‘mothership’ in Middle East
If this had been proposed under Bush, there would have been "anti-war" protesters in the streets. I do not expect any since Obama is in the White House. Interesting. The GOP is bipartisan when it comes to war. The Dems only like war when they have the White House. War has become a political commodity.
