Well, here we have it. The Bushies are so terrified by the new poll numbers, they have thrown their Iran invasion plans into high gear, at least the rhetoric part of it.
One has to wonder if the quickly declining poll numbers have anything to do with all this Iran talk?
Earlier today, John Bolton elevated the threatening rhetoric into the stratosphere, with his wild accusations and aspersitions. My g-d, what must the world think of us now....
Bolton's comments are below the fold:
Bolton compares Iran threat to Sept 11 attacks
UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.S. ambassador to the
United Nations, John Bolton, on Wednesday compared the threat from Iran's nuclear programs to the September 11 terror attacks on the United States.
"Just like September 11, only with nuclear weapons this time, that's the threat. I think that is the threat," Bolton told ABC News' Nightline program.
"I think it's just facing reality. It's not a happy reality, but it's reality and if you don't deal with it, it will become even more unpleasant."
Bolton ratcheted up the rhetoric as the five veto-holding members of the
U.N. Security Council failed again to reach agreement on how to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions after a fifth round of negotiations

Now, I don't know about you, but when paired with the lies Bolton has been spouting about Iran's actual nuclear capabilities, this story seems to be a step towards pushing us closer to the brink. Why is this mean, evil bastard allowed to speak for this nation? And more importantly, why is he being allowed to directly lie to this nation, and the world? Who gave him permission to do this?
No one's buying it Bolton, you filthy neocon traitor!
