2. when are you gonna tell us?
Edited on Thu Sep-27-07 12:59 PM by monktonman
Also yes I agree. we need to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of crazies.
Thing is, you could replace the word Iran with Pakistan, India, Israel, Or even America and it wouldnt make a difference.

After looking at your handle I'm sure I know who it WASNT but I'm not spoiling for a fight with you today so forget I said anything. Hee,hee.

4. I don't know who, and yes, I agree.
That does not mean I support an invasion or any armed response.

Edited on Thu Sep-27-07 01:31 PM by DemocratSinceBirth
Then the use of force is by definition the last resort...

12. I'll Play
Mr. Obama has said a nuclear armed Iran is unacceptable...

What happens if they reject his entreaties and continue to build a nuclear weapon?

13. I really don't know.
Hopefully the expert diplomats can figure it out. I just know that open conflict will be worse than putting up with a nuclear Iran. Besides, we might lose any such war.

14. I Don't Know Either...
A lot of these questions are really hard...

My point is if a person says any situation is unacceptable than at some point that person has to be willing to use force if other methods don't work...

Say I take Mr.X's lawn mower and I refuse to return it and Mr.X says its unacceptable...If methods such as persuasion don't work and Mr.X was serious when he said the situation was unacceptable he will have to use force; probably by calling the police to use force. on his behalf ...

15. I guess I see both a nuclear Iran and war as unacceptable.
Unfortunately, not every problem has a solution. I can only hope the memory of their war with Iraq in the 1980s will make Iran skittish about about further conflict and that they will be willing to negotiate with a reasonable Western government.

7. It was Obama- Foreign Affairs Magazine July 2007
I don't agree with this, but I still support his candidacy because , unlike Hillary, he can win.

I'll take it all back if Hillary fires her campaign staff and all her advisors.
But those clowns are setting her up to LOSE, in a close race.

8. I'm Glad You Think She Can't Win
Informed opinion and polling data suggest otherwise...

I think Hillary, Obama, Edwards, and Biden could beat any GOOPER....
