Romney Takes Tough Stance on Iran

Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney has said that he would use a "blockade or bombardment" to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. This came as President Bush announced new sanctions against Iran.

"If for some reasons they continue down their course of folly toward nuclear ambition, then I would take military action if that's available to us...That's an option that's on the table. And it's is not something which we'll spell out specifically. I really can't lay out exactly how that would be done, but we have a number of options from blockade to bombardment of some kind. And that's something we very much have to keep on the table, and we will ready ourselves to be able to take, because, frankly, I think it's unacceptable for Iran to have nuclear weapons," said Romney

Democrats, of course, are throwing a fit because there are true patriots who will stand against terrorism and Democrats can't stand the fact the people are realizing how unpatriotic they are. They would rather bow down to Iran and let them have nuclear weapons than stand up against a terrorist regime.

"The aggressive actions taken today by the administration absent any corresponding diplomatic action is exactly what we all should have known was coming when we considered our vote on the Kyl-Lieberman Amendment, and smacks, frankly, of a dangerous step toward armed confrontation with Iran," Presidential candidate Chris Dodd said about the Bush Administration's new sanctions on Iran. What I ask is how this idiot Dodd says that there is not "corresponding diplomatic action?" What we are doing now is diplomacy, Iran is just refusing to cooperate. But we have to remember, diplomacy to Democrats is just laying down and letter terrorists walk all over you.

The fact, is right now we are using diplomacy with the terrorist country of Iran and it is not working. Even France sees this. If Iran continues to not cooperate we would have to try something else and frankly, the only thing that works with animals like Ahmadinejad is to beat them into submission (military force). I hope and pray that this confrontation with Iran can be handled without the use of military force, but it doesn't look like Iran will cooperate. Romney has taken a tough stance against Iran and it looks like he will continue to do so. This is a good thing because he realizes the threat that Iran poses to the United States and it's allies and he's not going to let them run rampant. Thank-you for reading and God Bless.
