Effects of possible war with Iran

Iran agreed to some inspections today, so may be moot for a bit.  

However, the country always rallies around the President in times of war.  However is 2-3 times the size of Iraq and would be a lot tougher militarily.

Plus unless they do something we are busy enough in Iraq.

But they should be watched closely.

I agree with CM too.  You sound like a moderate/centrist Dem.  Not out of line Liberal.

Well typically if a President has 2 terms he has more time to balance his role of foriegn policy and domestic.  GHWB was starting to refocus on domestic after success in Panama, Berlin Wall falling and Gulf War and the economy was improving but Clinton did a good job of playing the economy was so bad, when in fact it was already coming back.

At least this time around the economy is already coming back!

Well I don't see a war with Iran.

Now Bush gets another big plus by having Libya turn over WMDs and reduce the threat of them handing them over to terrorists.  Definately making the world safer.

Yeah the story lines of the President's son are always interesting.

Also it does look like the Presidential curse has been lifted.  heard that mentioned the other day with Hinkley's release.

Reelect George, then Jeb's turn!

We did tell China to get NK under control or we would arm Japan and neither of them wants that.  

Not surprising, especially after a few years ago shooting a missle into the sea near Japan as a "test" tehy say.
