Thank you. We call it culling of the herd.

It is not Iran that has the track record of attacking other countries. It is the U.S. and Israel. My hope was (and still is) that we will put someone in office who will put an end to western imperialism and start talking to the “fundies” (as you so eloquently refer to them) rather than bombing them.

I understand the whole “lesser evil” argument and would certainly do what it takes to keep McCain out. My post is more of an expression of disappointment and frustration that yet another politician is so effortlessly lying to the American people.

Furthermore, what he said about Iran goes beyond just politics. It is dangerous. Bush will make Obama eat his words. If someone doesn’t vocally stand up and say no to attacking Iran (unless of course Iran were to attack us), Obama’s willingness for diplomacy may come too late.

You might want to look at Cynthia McKinney who is running on the Green Party ticket and is definitely more explicit about her proposed foreign policy with regard to Israel so *if you live in a “safe” state” I’d encourage you to vote for her. But if not then I would still say that Obama is still definitely better.
