Bush and Cheney Versus Fallon!

[It is no secret that Cheney favors an attack on Iran. We may be facing national disaster along these lines before the unholy pair are out of office. Cheney at last report is heading over there at this moment. Many reports have warned that an attack on Iran could stimulate massive retaliation -- against our fleet and military over committed in Iraq and Afghanistan. Bush's most recent statements about liberty and divine sanction of his role as Commander in Chief are downright scary.

Fallon has argued for discussions with Iran rather than war and a reduction of our troops in Iraq. Ed Kent]
