Sara Palin says Obama should "declare war on Iran"...

[CoffeeCat]

...in order to enhance his political stature and improve his re-election chances. I just heard this, this morning on "This Week".

Her comments, that were broadcast on "This Week" were lifted from a speech she gave earlier this February.

Stupid and ignorant are annoying qualities in an average, everyday person. However, when a politician is stupid and ignorant
those are dangerous qualities.

1. A Reminder of Why I Am Glad I Voted for Obama nt

2. Her IQ would double if she learned how to shut up.

We know that isn't going to happen.

[indy legend]

3. great

That would bump it all the way up to 10.

[fire_in_the_middle]

4. Great... just great.

while were at it, let's declare war on the american people, too... oh wait... Wall St already did. :woohoo:

[spanone]

5. i bet she doesn't have a fucking clue where iran is or how huge it is....she's pathetic

so miss sarah, we can't use the word retard but you can use the phrase 'declare war' fuck you you fucking idiot....

[Catshrink]

6. Does she know it's different from Iraq?

[hobbit709]

7. Does she know it's near Russia?

[Catshrink]

9. Sure she does --

she can see Russia so why not Iran?

[jimshoes]

8. To her tiny mind it doesn't matter where

or how big it is, we're Amurika, we're #1, we got the biggest and the bestest military ever... you betcha'.

[indepat]

10. Doesn't seem to have a clue either that it is the Congress bestowed with the constitutional

authority to declare war rather than the president. :P

[Libertas1776]

11. really?

is she gonna sign up her kids first to fight? Naw, she'll just convince her ignorant broke teabagger crowds to send theirs instead. A vile woman...a very vile woman.

[applegrove]

12. Sad how she does affect her intended base audience. Sad that they

look up to a puppet of the neocons.

[spanone]

13. what wannabe politician throws around phrases like 'declare war' ???

pretty damned cavalier of the ignorant one.

[CoffeeCat]

15. No kidding. When was the last time we officially...

"declared war" against a country? WW2 against Hitler. Why in the hell would she even
say this?

She's a flippant, non-serious clown talking about a Superpower declaring war. I bet she knows
nothing about Iran, its people, the ramifications of those actions. She's an idiot.

Furthermore, her entire statement was about Obama earning some respect and foreign policy
cred. Yeah, you idiot--that's exactly how a politician earns national security bona fides--by
killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians.

It's sickening, just sickening that a complete flibbertigibbet like her is even asked these questions.

16. One who's controlled by PNAC shitbags.

They want war with Iran even more than NuttyYahoo himself does. And it's no secret that Bill Kristol takes credit for "discovering" Moosealini. Wouldn't be surprised if he or his staffers at the Orwellianly named "Foundation for Defense of Democracy" (PNAC 2.0) are writing her shit talking points.

[winyanstaz]

14. The ravings of a psychopath..

"to enhance his political stature and improve his re-election chances" she wants a few hundred thousand people or even millions to die? wtf?

This is a leader? This is something we should allow to run for office???

That has got to be the most shallow and asinine statement every utter in human history.

[smalll]

17. So you don't know where this comes from? (She couldn't think of it herself) --

It was on "National Review Online" a week or so ago -

"How to Save the Obama Presidency: Invade Iran." by Daniel Pipes.

At the same time, one has to think, that if we did a quick in-and-out disruption of the Khameni/Amedinejad regime, at this point, the Mousavi/Neda forces would rise to the top. Which would be a good thing. Unless we're hoplessly committed to a certain view of the world, and more specifically, a certain view of the U.S.A.

18. Don't forget Cuba and Venezuela

and China. And also, Russia.

[HughBeaumont]

19. 57 million people.

Read that again.

57 million people.

That's how many thought it would be a great idea to have her as a de facto president. Or at least the idea of her as one.

57 million stupid-ass brain dead people.

57 million paranoid reich-cultists want this . . . this nothing to be the Chosen Orchestrator of Armageddon.

I weep for the future of this country.

Un. Believeable.
