Huckabee on new Iran intel report: What's that?

BY JOVE! It has finally hit me why people like Huck a Buck. Just think for a minute. Who is/was everybody's favorite cartoon character? Why, Dagwood Bumstead, of course! Look at Huck closely and you'll see the strong facial resemblance. And the behavior. Who cannot see how that blissful, blundering, awkwardness of Huck is very Dagwood? Could this be the very person America is looking for as comic relief from the heavy drama of the Bush years? I don't think so.

he said he agreed with President Bush, who said that Iran remains a threat.

Duh!!!!Everybody agrees with that. So what. It's the way you "deal" with these issues that counts. Just like Iraq. Saddam could have been dealt with in a different manner, Afghanastan would have been won and his "beacon" would have been in place, and the volatility that this Iraq and Iran drum beating, has done nothing but drive the oil market to soaring levels. Thats not vision...thats a blunder!

OK, so the administration (Cheney, Wolfowitz, Fieth) cherry-picks and twists the intelligence on the Iraq WMD NIE (remember the aluminum tubes) but the blame is placed on the intelligence community. Now the administration discounts this NIE because of the “faulty” previous one. If Huckabee is taking the same tack as Bush, then what will he use to determine the validity of any threat, his gut feeling? Or perhaps AIPAC (see below) Sorry, I don’t trust anyone that much!

It is interesting that Bush’s comments are similar to the ones from AIPAC (below)

AIPAC spokesman Josh Block told JTA that if anything, the report showed that Iran had advanced further than was publicly known.

"Far from acquitting Iran, the NIE reveals that Tehran continues to violate the international community's calls to end the pursuit of the fuel cycle and the ability to make highly enriched uranium, concludes that Iran has utilized and has at its disposal a hidden, secret second unacknowledged, unmonitored track for enriching bomb fuel, and has engaged in a nuclear weaponization program, an assessment never before made public by the American intelligence community," Block said. "All in all, it's a clarion call for additional and continued effort to pressure Iran economically and politically to end its illicit nuclear programs."

My comment is addressed to GW and all those other left wing liberals who are characterized by their venting out of both ends instead of using what's between their shoulders ( considering they have something up there to begin with )
The person who authorized this intelligence finding concerning Iran has ties to Sen. Chris Dodd ( commie ? ) who was responsible for blocking the nomination of John Bolton to become U.N. Amb. This author received this report through a senior european diplomat who got his information from a member of Iran's Revolutionary guard! You see if their is a " conspiracy " in this country its the democrats who are desperate enough to not only discredit the Bush administration at any length ( by the way, I am not 100% bush backer ) but are willing to sell this country out!

Jim Lykins:

Source of your rant, please.

And Newsmax and michellemalkin.com do not count as real sources.

"That would be unfortunate if we actually knew we needed to take action but were fearful of doing so because of getting burned in the Iraq situation," he said. "That would be a serious challenge for us."

So is Huckabee now saying that the war in Iraq was wrong to begin with?? Then why not call for an end to it?? Join your buddy Ron Paul!!

Your venting lost my attention at this line.

For all you nuts that are looking hard to find a boogie man under your bed, OCD can be cured with medication. Iran can not attack the US or Isreal without being wiped off the map. The intelligence report is good news.

Jim, I read your comments and all I can say is "Yawwnnnnnnnn"

Would Republicans let Obama get away with not even being aware of or reading this NIE report? This crook Huckabee is in over his head.

And this year's Swamp Tinfoil Hat Award goes to Jim Lykins, who is saying that the new NIE is actually a nefarious lie propagated by Democrats to embarass the President. Because we all know Democrats control the Defense and Intelligence apparatus, right?

This narrowly beats out Don B's theory (wholeheartedly backslapped by resident loony righty John Dyslin) that Osama Bin Laden is actually dead, but President Bush can't get the word out because, get this, the "liberal media" won't give him the opportunity. 'Cause, you know, he's totally at the mercy of the media and can't make his own news, and cause, you know, its always been DEMOCRATS saying that Bin Laden is irrelevant and that we should go to Iraq before we finish off Bin Laden and REPUBLICANS saying how much they want to catch him and would never dare shift resources away from that fight to open an unrelated second front, and, you know, because having Bin Laden alive and well and presumably planning attacks is SO good for Democrats because... well, you lost me on that one.

The Republican motto 2008:

We have nothing to use but fear itself.

The more time that goes by the more future president Ron Paul veiws on foreign policy are looking inovative and way ahead of the curve. Many of his other veiws are just as just as progressive. Leaders should be allowed to lead and followers should just get in line behind them. The future will prove that Ron paul got it right long before the others on most of the issues facing this country.
