Exceptions recognized for those who work in the "process industries" (oil, chemicals, beer)"
Especially beer. I Like beer a lot. Beer is the foundation of civilization. Early agriculture had a great deal to do with having the means and materials to brew.

A lot isn’t a problem with me.

Goesh…parse as follows: “people who *frequently* use the word process are very often idiots”..would have been a better sentence.

I'm still trying to process the information. It's a time-consuming process.

But seriously, I think a strategic nuclear "accident" in Iran might solve a lot of problems.

Well, process is important, but too many confuse process with results. It's a mistake to do that.

And in this specific case, attempting to initiate a "process" is little more than a delaying tactic. Yes, I know, it's so totally obvious, but some people (not here, thank goodness) refuse to see that, so blunt statement is necessary.

I tried to process David’s post but with little success. The use of ” a lot” in his comment really threw me for a loop.

“People who use the word “process” a lot are very often idiots”, sign posting to guide the shallow mind that refuses or is incapable of critical thought. Ohhh which way do I go, which way do I go… LOL

People who use the word “process” a lot are very often idiots. Exceptions recognized for those who work in the “process industries” (oil, chemicals, beer) and certain other cases, but 90% of the time it’s a good giveaway…

Either Iran gets nuke weapons, or the US stops them.

I want the US to stop them.

The US should be preparing for invasion as soon as it's "clear" that they've violated the Nuke Non-Proliferation Treaty, signed by Iran (as Israel has never signed).

Countries that violate treaties they've signed do NOT deserve the "national sovereignty" respect and consideration of normal, treaty-abiding countries.

Bush and Rice should be going thru the UN motions, but knowing the Iranians are just posturing for time, time to send Tel Aviv a little mushroom welcome.

On the other hand, getting Iraq more sorted out will also take time. From that POV more time is better. Plus there are elections coming, what will the Dems say to question:
"Do you support letting Iran have nuclear weapons?"
