THIS IS REALLY SCARY!!!!

Wednesday night, during the Republican debates, Ron Paul said "There is no evidence that Iran has a nuclear bomb"!  And NONE of the other people on the platform denied it, told him he was wrong, etc.  And that is just after the other three said they were going to bomb the crap out of Iran if they were elected President!!

Whoa!!  Here we go again, mythical weapons of mass destruction.  A president declaring war without a vote from congress.  Thousands of young Americans killed.  Billions of dollars wasted.  The list goes on.

That night took a long time to go to sleep!!

And the next morning, the Los Angeles Times said the same thing.

"U.S. does not believe Iran is trying to build nuclear bomb

The latest U.S. intelligence report indicates Iran is pursuing research that could enable it to build a nuclear weapon, but that it has not sought to do so.

As U.S. and Israeli officials talk publicly about the prospect of a military strike against Iran's nuclear program, one fact is often overlooked: U.S. intelligence agencies don't believe Iran is actively trying to build an atomic bomb.

A highly classified U.S. intelligence assessment circulated to policymakers early last year largely affirms that view, originally made in 2007. Both reports, known as national intelligence estimates, conclude that Tehran halted efforts to develop and build a nuclear warhead in 2003."

You can read the rest at latimes.com.  And today, the New York Times told the same story.

Remember that in the 1940's, President Eisenhower warned about the dangers posed by the "Congressional/Military/Defense Industry complex (except his aides forced him to leave out Congressional).

And here we are sixty years later getting ready to let these assholes kill our kids and bankrupt the country because they have bought, signed and sealed Congress.

Every day, I am reminded that, "The only thing we learn from history is that we never learn anything from history".  How incredibly sad is that?????
