why Mr. Clemons is wrong
All the reasons Mr. Clemons gives for why Bush won't attack Iran are based on one false premise: that Bush is a rational person who rationally assesses the consequences of his actions.
This premise totally misses who Mr. Bush is. He is an unrecovered addict whose actions over the last 7 years have proved over and over that he has no conception of, nor concern for, the consequences of his actions. He is a Christian fanatic who believes it is his calling to fight a crusade in the Middle East against the Muslim infidels, and if that means triggering Armageddon well he's just OK with that. The history of the last 8 years also shows that he has surrounded himself with sycophants who have no interest in telling him the unpleasant facts of life.
The religious fanatics that are truly a threat to this country run things in Washington, and the threat they represent will not end with the innaurguration of another president.
