Iran has been perhaps one of the largest state sponsored terrorist organizations on earth.  They have through proxies killed many of our guys in the past several decades.  Both BHO and FJB gave them money which in turn they used to fund terrorism against the US.

The average Iranian is sick and tired of their bullshit as well.  At one point Iran was a thriving western style nation until the religious radicals took over.

One has to wonder about all the backdoor deals done by the establishment with the Iranian leadership over the years.

Finally, China is getting boxed out.  We have removed their oil source from Venezuela and Iran.  This has a major impact on their economy.   And again this is yet another reason the radical left is beside themselves today.

Agree on all points. Venezuela and Iran have been thorns in our side for a long while, Trump is the only one with enough balls to do something about it.

I've worked with several Iranains and they've all been well educated worldly hard workers, and yes, they want better for their country.

You just can't make this stuff up.

Bitch just trying to still be relevant.

All these useful idiots, so easily conned. Thinking they're making the world a better place, right up until a Chinese or Soviet jackboot is on their throat.

He’s right.

Quote from above:

"I’m a ship captain. I was trained to make the hardest choice: to do the most good for the most people. I was taught that one day I might have to send a fire team into a space they won’t come back from to buy passengers ten more minutes to reach lifeboats."

So, this quote reminds me of a Time magazine article from many years ago that has stuck with me to this day. It was written either at the end of HW's term, or maybe upon his death, I really cannot remember.

The gist of the article was that HW and other current world leaders were the last of the leaders who served and/or saw the horrors of the WWII. Men who as leaders made hard decisions continued to keep peace in the world, even if these decisions resulted in unpopular opinions amoung the people. They knew what they had to do.

And now, the author was afraid that future leaders, not hardened by WWII, would not have the will or resolve to do the hard things to ensure peace continues. There was a lot more to it, but this is basically the TL;DR.  Like the ship captain who may have to send a small group of men to their death to save the ship, world leaders need to have the fortitude to do the same thing. I think Trump has this quality, but most world leaders and most of our future (and recent past) presidents do or will not.

I'm beginning to think you guys that live in the South may have something.

Loved growing up in Pennsylvania and loved snow and winter when I was young, but I'm over it now. Permanent southerner now.

added a healthy smear of Mercurochrome.  Stung like crazy.  I'm not sure how we survived childhood.

That stuff was worse than the injury itself!

Agreed, with the exception that I think “booger.”

Here is a wonderful Ted Kooser poem I always think of when I see tattoos. I think people are using them to maintain some sort of unique relevance, but when so many people are covered with tattoos, it seems more like everyone is trying to hide behind them.

All of these tatted and pierced folks are going to look rediculous when they're 65yr old retirees at the beach.

So PA is the highest in the country. We also have the worst roads in the country which the gas tax is supposed to fix. Not holding my breath.

Gotta be connected if you want a piece of that pie.
