you guys are going to lose another election. all you can do is sit around whining. current congress is the one YOU elected in, to put Bush in his place, and when they screw up, you blame Bush for that too. I love it. I don’t even support Bush, but watching all of you bumble over your own ideas is rather amusing. All this talk about how bad America is, if you even typed that in some countries, you would be in jail. It sickens me how many people now just constantly complain and take a cynical view of everything. You don’t even deserve to win this election. What have you even done? Called Bush names. Great. Organized some stupid blog. Outstanding. Made a leftist online newspaper to spout garbage. OK!

Not one single solution to any problems you constantly bitch about. Grow up and wake up. You lost the last two elections by sitting around whining, and Bush got in TWICE! Maybe Bush screwed up the ‘Fool me once, shame on you’ line, but you guys have screwed up the entire meaning. Shame on YOU for having been fooled twice.

The last sentence of this article is the unblemished truth of where we as a people are today. Others will still insist that America is still better than most countries. Faced with the destruction of Iraq after the invasion, this position becomes harder to defend. The Iraq Crime will never go away and generations to come will suffer because of The Butcher of Crawford and his Men.

Why wont you be a good professor and support the establishment. Yes all of you in academia stand to profit from wars, you pretend to be powerless and complain about the inequities of the world and the government which you indirectly support with your research. Such hypocrisy, while you sit on your ivory tower, pompous ass… spouting lectures of irrelevance , all the while those with real power monopolize the resources of the world and rape the brains of the unwashed. Shame on you failure, let that be your name, no amount of whining will change, good men need do nothing, evil will prevail all the same. Rome will burn again, let it burn, your as guilty as those senators fumbling the matches.

Iran poses no threat to the US, and everyone from Norman Pohoretz to Pat Buchana acknowledges that war with Iran will ruin the US economy. Ergo, anyone who sides with AIPAC on 362 is a traitor to his country.

Israel - you are more trouble than you are worth!

We must do all we can to stop this insane resolution, it amounts to nothing less than a resolution to wage war on Iran. Despite the whereas part where it says ” nothing in this resolution shall be construed as an authorization of the use of force against Iran”

Regarding the resolution’s language, “imposing stringent inspection requirements on all persons, vehicles, ships, planes, trains, and cargo entering or departing Iran,” Francis Boyle, Professor of International Law at the University of Illinois, writes, “I do not see how this could be done without a blockade given its comprehensive and unequivocal language.”

Take action. Do not delay. We can stop this.

I wonder if this will lead up to the “October Surprise” everyone was talking about last year? Will something happen to suspend elections?

I knew this was going to happen. The politicians work for the lobbyists and the most powerful one is Israel. The media hides all this dirty work, go watch Fox Business Channel or CNBC. It is more than obviously that Oil is surging because of the sabre rattling between Israel and Iran, yet they blame China and India. If I were a speculator I would make bundles on Oil because when Israel or their puppet the United States attacks Iran, Oil will go beyond $200 and the Dow will go under 10,000. It is easy money know that what Israel wants, Israel gets.

I just wonder how the media owners are going to justify this for Israel and Bush when the country is in such horrible state with people losing their homes. Since when do Americans matter anyway…

Do not forget the “Skull and Bones” club that Bush and his cabal are members of. Their aim is just to kill as many people as possible, no matter who they are, Americans or foreigners. Under whatever pretext they will continue to kill all over the world. Let us hope that one day soon compassion will descend on them, that is the only hope we have to stop the idiotic was(s), that are on and still to come.

even if a referendum on waging war against iran was held and majority voted for war, it is to me still wrong for US to attack iran.
a base this conclusion on the desirable premise than no land has the right to attack another under no known circumsatance.
to bear arms is an universal. it’s not just an american right.
professor leupp skirts the basics. eg, that it is not any longer acceptable to wage wars even on truth since every nation has also a truth.
US has TRUTH1, russia, has TRUTH2, Iran has TRUTH3 and so on. by this stance we wd all have the right to attack anybody else.
i have TRUTH4; so, i attack a person on the street; take her/his money. or what have u. and criminals r watching us!

makes perfect sense. I haven’t seen this on the mainstream media or elsewhere until now. I always get suspicious when FOXCNNCNBCMSNBCHNN starts focusing on weather, celebrity stupidity, or other senseless quasi-journalism instead of covering important issues. They don’t want you to recall that they enjoyed having Richard Perle and other NeoCons come on to their sets everyday and sell the war. They helped sell it! This time they are being more cautious, but they seem to get the job done. All year long politicians can’t get a complete sentence aired by the media, then go speak in front of AIPAC abot how America should stop Iran? Every channel, Live! If your Jewish and support Israel good for you, but most (99%) of us are not Jewish and many of us have grave concerns about what our elected officials are agreeing to when behind closed doors with you, and I do not mean to single you out that way. I want to know what the oil industry lobbyists leaders get to hear. I want to know what all lobbyists hear from our leaders. But the Iran issue is yours Israel supporters. Jerusalem newspapers are rife with commentary about how Israel supporters need to convince America that Iran is a threat we need to address now. Thus the live coverage of potential presidents bowing to AIPAC, as well as the IAF practice drill over the Mediterranean. If Iran scares you Israel, do what you think is best. Cry wolf no more.
