I would remind people that there does seem to be a push for a war with Iran coming from many of the neo-conservatives that are now surrounding Romney in the form of demanding a use of force authorization from Congress to "negotiate" from a "better position." But we of course know what would happen under another neo-con cabinet. A authorization of the potential use of military force would become a approval of large scale war. We would be put into "crisis mode" as in "this has to be resolved right now." And of course any potential deal offered by the Iranians or a third party would be rejected as not good enough. Just like the lead up to the war in Iraq. Indeed, Romney's communications director, I mean WaPo blogger, Jennifer Rubin has thrown her weight behind this plan too.longwalkdownlyndalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173899547449318257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3401584991689197404.post-62926221056233183042012-10-02T10:46:25.754-07:002012-10-02T10:46:25.754-07:00It's not enought to just quote Santanya...
