Rice just said nuclear threat from Iran "small."
I just heard a clip on CNN. She was justifying the placement of nuclear defense in Eastern Europe. She said something like, paraphrasing... "Thank God we live in a world where we face only a small nuclear threat from countries like... Iran. Missile defense in these times will serve as a stabilizing force, not a destabilizing force." - end paraphrase.

1. Our Dem congress rep said the same thing yesterday
He said Iran is at least 10 years away from having a nuclear weapon.

Hhmmmm, that could also mean the size of her brain. I don't trust anything that comes out of her mouth.

4. Like her fucking integrity
And five years ago she was blathering on about the incredible threat from Iraq which wasn't near as militarily powerful as Iran. Will the signal be a mushroom cloud??

Construction of the gallows should begin immediately.

9. I honestly don't think they really care. They know we know they are liars
and they couldn't care less.

5. Condi tomorrow: "Did I say small? I mean small..."
their nuclear threat is small only if we invade them. Otherwise, the smoking gun of Iran's nuclear threat could come in the form of a mushroom cloud over New York City in 45 minutes."

6. "Small" like Dick Cheney?
At least I assume that's who she was referring to when she was overheard to say, "George's little Dick."
