Wingnut funtime

Because I was out of icepicks I watched Hardball last night. Tom DeLay was on to argue that:

(1) George Bush has done terrible damage to the GOP brand, so much so that a Democrat is likely to win the White House.

(2) Iran's missile tests show that Iran is determined to continue its nuclear program.

(3) If we don't go to war with Iran, then Iran will eventually acquire nuclear weapons.

(4) We cannot allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons.

(5) Thus, we must go to war with Iran.

(6) But we can't trust a Democratic President to start a new war.

(7) Hence, we need to get the war started before November.

When pressed, the only specific hostile act DeLay was willing to explicitly endorse was a blockade. I'd say that's scary enough.
