Now he's laying the groundwork? You mean picking a war with the two countries surrounding Iran wasn't laying any groundwork?
I especially got a laugh out of this comment:
"As I say, all options are on the table. The use of force is the last option for any president and you know, we've used force in the recent past to secure our country," he told state-owned Israel Channel One television.
I especially like how it sounds as war with Iran is currently presented as a viable option, even though 1) our military is already stretched too thin, and 2) we didn't use force to secure our country. We used fear.
Anyone else feeling that draft?
I'm looking forward to the Halliburton food.
