Are you the gendarme of the world?

Romney said that if "crippling sanctions" and other strategies fail, military action would be on the table because it is "unacceptable" for Iran to become a nuclear power.


"...if you elect Mitt Romney, Iran will not have a nuclear weapon," said Romney.


Did Mormonism produced this stupid hawk, or is he on his own?

Anyway, I don't care while the target is far enough from Europe...

There's nothing in Mormonism that says that Iran can't become a nuclear power, so he's on his own.

Europe is fast becomming Islam's (and China's) bitch. The break up of the Euro might do them some good though.

Obama, trying to emulate Bush but with none of the risk is getting none of the results. See Libya, Egypt, and the Muslim Brotherhood. Obama has already destroyed any chance we had in Iraq and Afghanistan and will leave us with a far more dangerous Middle East than when he started and a yearly decifit 3 to 5 times greater than Bush (making us China's bitch as well).

Since Iran is already an Islamic state, we can actually invade and root out their nuke program, destroy their military, and kill their leaders for a few months and then leave. Would be nice if Europe pulled it's own weight on this one, but their militaries are paper tigers due to the ever increasing costs of socialism and they are susceptible to bouts of Nevillian appeasement and the inability to believe in anything associated with real freedom having never really woken up from centuries of surfdom.

Let us not forget that liberals and socialists world-wide slaver and bloviate at the possibility of becomming the world's gendarme to enforce their social policies well before anyone does anything illegal.

I remember, - and probably You remember, too - a certain time, when only one nuclear program existed. The owner of that program - the owner of all two nuclear bomb of the world - hurried to use the bombs. Destroyed two town without any military target and killed two hundred thousand civilian.
Up to now, during human civilization (no pun intended...) the only usage of nuclear weapons. By whom?

And the United States isn't?

Obama has already destroyed any chance we had in Iraq and Afghanistan . . .

Chance for what?

Since Iran is already an Islamic state, we can actually invade and root out their nuke program, destroy their military, and kill their leaders for a few months and then leave.

Oh. So if a state happens to be Islamic, then we have the green light? Is that what you're saying?

Doesn't the United States also suffer from "the ever increasing costs of socialism?"

. . . and they are susceptible to bouts of Nevillian appeasement and the inability to believe in anything associated with real freedom having never really woken up from centuries of surfdom.

I think you mean "serfdom."

And remember, there's a difference between "appeasement" and "non-interventionism."

Let us not forget that liberals and socialists world-wide slaver and bloviate at the possibility of becomming the world's gendarme to enforce their social policies well before anyone does anything illegal.

Can you give us some examples?
