A few minutes ago CNBC reported that Iran had just launched DOZENS of nuclear missles as a part of a test. DOZENS. Now, to the average person, that sounds like the start of end of the world. My friend, who's a stockbroker, calls me and tells me the whole market's crashing from the news. 5 minutes later CNBC apologizes, saying that it was a mistake and that the missles were normal, not nuclear.
Someone's getting fired over this.
It's only because of the fear mongers in the administration that anyone even thinks that Iran has nuclear anything, which they don't. This is the price we pay.
Yes, fear mongers only exist in the Bush administration. There are none in the rest of the republican party, democratic party and the media.Quote:

Let's try to keep in mind that panics like this could have cost us (and very nearly did) all our lives during the Cold War.

You're blaming the Bush administration for a media outlet's mistake? Further proof that the left will blame ANYTHING on the right.Quote:
