Are Bush's comments today...
...a way to start justifying an attack on Iran?

Are his comments similar to the "mushroom cloud" comments before the invasion of Iraq?

All I have been hearing today have been hints that Iran is a terrorist nation strongly implying that inaction toward Ahmadinejad will bring another holocaust.

Does the GOP-controlled media really believe the American public is so stupid that we can't see past this?

-----------------------------------------------------
For reference-sake, here is a link and a quote:
"As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is: the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."

--CNN

4. Yes he is, but...
...the GOP sheep are willing to do whatever he says.

The GOP are desperate and need to stay in a war somewhere.

You really don't think this is a shot over the bow so to speak?

6. Yeah, but he's a DANGEROUS monkey; he's already started two wars
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if he tries to start a third. He does have a history of making horrendously ill-informed decisions.

13. Knowing the GOP...
...they probably have a file of convenient quotes to blurt out regardless of context.
