Obama outta iraq into iran
"TEHRAN - A showdown between Iran and the United States over Tehran's threats to close the strategic Strait of Hormuz to oil tankers worsened Dec. 29 with warships from each side giving weight to an increasingly bellicose exchange of words.
Iran's Revolutionary Guards rejected a warning that the U.S. military would "not tolerate" such a closure, saying they would act decisively "to protect our vital interests."
The tough language came as Iran's navy said a U.S. aircraft carrier entered a zone where its ships and aircraft were in the middle of 10 days of wargames designed to be a show of military might."

Mangler had an accident on the way home from the liquor store. He was run off the road and crashed into a woman's clinic. It was one giant Pabst smear.

I can't imagine anyone is going to stand for Iran blocking oil tankers coming out of there. Not sure what the end game here is. Seems like it would just piss everyone off for no good reason.

We may have to do a China and send thousands of drones to sink Iran's fleet.

Are you saying oil is against gay marriage?

I don't think they will want a fight. There's no civilians to hide behind out in the sea.

Canada has legalized gay marriage and it produces oil. In fact, it is one of the world's largest stock piles of oil.

Ideology is not reality.
To make good policy, one must consider all ideologies and decide which best solves the reality of the situation. Ideology is afterall, JUST AN IDEA.
