GOP Really Rooting For The Letter To Derail Iran Agreement..

You can bet on it. In the back rooms of the GOP they are rooting and even looking forward to celebrating the failure of the Iran talks. It will be another Obama failure and they will capitalize that Obama cannot do foreign policy. they are really not backing down on "the letter". They only appear to.

For them war and even invasion is the ONLY option. And the GOP's pseudo Christian friends are ok with the idea that we could be risking a real Armageddon.

The GOP is really public enemy number 1. Only fools and suckers vote GOP.

- It was just a friendly reminder to the iranian government.
- It was just a prank.
- It wasn't really a letter to a foreign goverment because it was an open letter.



The same game that was played in the run-up of the Iraq-war: "We are protecting you. But be afraid, be very afraid."

I was struck this morning by a phrase in an article about Netanyahoo's statement to the effect that there would be no Palestinian state if he's re-elected. The article said he'd taken "a hard turn to the right." As though right = hatefulness, violence, and suppression of human rights. It's all right out there in the open and accepted by the media.
