"This is an hour of sadness. Our country is passing through the most dangerous times," he said.

"The forces of the Syrian-Iranian axis are fomenting unrest and these events are very dangerous," a statement said.

"The opposition, which answers to Syria and Iran, is solely responsible for the blood spilled today."

The US' interests aren't gaining in this mess, but whose are? W's sworn enemy Iran issmirking at the buffoon who declared "Mission Accomplished"!

The article "Top Iranian Commander Warns Us" states "The chief commander of Iran's Revolutionary Guard or Pasdaran has said it is his country's "natural right" to retaliate against any attack by the United States."

Why? Because Iran knows we are spread too thin. Only W could make us into a paper tiger.

He was bragging as "During a recent tour of the Gulf, George Bush, the US president, said Iran is "the leading state sponsor of terror" and said "all options" against Tehran remain on the table."

Iran sees through the lies. What troops, military or financial resources do wehave to spare?

Where are the "16 words" in this State of Union? It could be lies about "Operation Iraqi Freedom" which, instead of fostering democracies in the Middle East, has accomplished the opposite.  It could be lies about the "stimulus package".  Why do you need a "stimulus package" if the "fundamentals of the economy are doing fine as W is frequently heard saying?  It could be some lies about Iran which W is wont to say.

History has shown that the barbarians always conquer the stronger when the stronger country gets lax.  How could any country elect such as fool as W twice if it wasn't apathetic.  All it takes for violence to thrive is for the well intentioned to become lazy.  What else can be said about the good old US of A?
