Talking Points 4/11-Dr. Strangelove


The Talking Points Memo dealt with Iran and the military. Bill discussed a recent Pentagon report that plays out a military situation in Iran and this report is making the media very paranoid. Bill claims that this is all phony and is an attempt to degrade the Bush administration. Bill compares the situation to the movie "Dr. Strangelove." Bill makes the point that the Bush administration is putting together tactics for military in Iran because they do pose a threat to the United States. Iran has become a threat because today they announced that they successfully enriched uranium, a prime component in producing nuclear bombs. Now, Bill makes a point that I like, because it makes it very clear that the Bush administration, which he tends to support, has indeed made some tactical errors in Iraq, but these errors are being used against him. One last point that Bill makes...Do not expect the U.N to help us out on this one. I like that Bill is honest about the mistakes made, but clears up the fact that Bush IS INDEED planning military tactics in Iran if need be.
