Has the Indian leaders spoken in apocalyptic terms about ushering in the chaos that will lead to a return of a cult leader ? Has India ever threatened to use their nukes to wipe out another country off the face of the earth ? Silly moral equivalence.Quote:

They certainly destroyed Iragi capability and yet I can understand Iran wanting nuclear capability when it is surrounded by nuclear states, Israel, Russia, Pakistan and at greater distance China and the US, the latter of whom has a somewhat belligerent attitude towards Iran
They are the aggressors ,and the emperor did a Neville Chamberlain imitation.Quote:

There are a lot of aggressors in this world. It will be interesting to see if the US matchs aircraft carrier for aircraft carrier in the East China Sea.
I can't deny the rhetoric of Ahamadjihad but he is no longer speaking for Iran, while he was president there was far too much aggression and it achieved nothing, just as US sanctions achieved nothing. These are different days and perhaps BO recognises that. We should welcome a lessening of tensions in the Gulf afterall there may be more than we can handle in the East China Sea
hey Tom here's what a fellow american says about the ACA
ACA badly implemented but still good for America (column) - The York Daily Record
Now I can understand that people in some states see it differently but this piece is written by a person nearby facing the same set of difficulties you are, so Tom how come he sees it differently?. I know, he is not listening to republican bulldust
This op ed was written by someone in York Pa. which is close to Gettysburg. She gripes about Gov. Corbett ,but I applaud his responsible actions regarding the Medicaid scam .
The rest of her rant is typical progressive pablum. Tal does a much better job of it .
You do realize that the person that wrote it has no connection to reality and is only spouting the party line. Just look at what they are writing. They make claims that don't exist. They tell lies to support their position. Maybe that is why they don't sound like Tom. Or anyone that actually looks at what is going on filtered with facts and reality.Quote:

Excellent Clete, but was telling was how my right wing friends resorted to name calling and denial instead of with facts. They have non, and its no excuse to be for exclusion, rather than inclusion. They try to redefine their BS but it's still BS.Quote:

Tal we didn't need another example of a broken market when this market was already broken before interference.Quote:

Yes Tal I said before you can blame the insurance industry and the lobbists for the mess
lol as if the libs aren't in bed with them. This whole system was devised by the emperor and the Dem caucus . You think the insurance companies had any say ?
Hell yes, as did big Pharma. with part D. None have lost money in the deals, quite the contrary.
The right wing has its facts WRONG! And they know it!

I seem to recall there are other uses for missile technology than ICBM. In any case Iran isn't interested in bombing the US so they don't need an ICBM. It seems only peaceful nations need ICBM, no doubt to grow pot plants on MARS.Quote:

They function as R&D for Iran because Iran pays well.
well someone got to do it
Turns out the Geneva deal is about " trust " ....but don't verify .
Kenneth Pollack | The Nuclear Deal With Iran Was About Trust, Not Verification | Foreign AffairsQuote:
In that sense, the interim deal is only important to the extent it helps to produce that ultimate, comprehensive agreement. Fortunately, the deal has real value as a confidence-building measure.
Simply put, the United States and Iran don't trust each other. That is understandable given how they have both behaved in the 34 years since the Islamic Revolution. Mistrust is so deeply rooted on both sides that it has often threatened to make any serious negotiations impossible.
What is most significant about the current deal is its potential to overcome that mutual mistrust.
Former CIA chief Michael Hayden stated what has been clear since the deal was reached .....that the US conceded that Iran has a "right " to enrich uranium even as it violated every US and UN sanctions prohibiting it .
Former CIA head: U.S. has
Nobody would care if they were just providing power, but the idea of a nuclear missile is scary. But you have to start somewhere and talking and working on a comprehensive agreement is better than rhetorical threats.
The sanctions worked, and they know it. How far the process can take us, is something we will see about.
