Republicans urge Obama to get tougher on Iran

I knew this would happen. I said this is exactly what would happen last week.

Some members of the GOP jump the gun in their Iran comments and about the president not following suit. Obama makes his comments at the right time and now their going to try to make it look like they were influencing him.

meh, it was probably Biden and Shillary.

No... it was John McCain and Lindsey Graham.

I guess I meant who really influenced him.

[jman3000]

So was I. It's just that my sarcasm was so intense it came off as being sincere.

For those of you that did not listen to Obama's press conference today, he did an absolutely splendid job of answering the reporter who asked something along the lines of "Did McCain and *neocon here*'s comments influence you to change your tone on the Iran situation?"

It was gold. He scoffed the out of anyone stupid enough to believe he would give a about the republican opinion on this situation.

I think Graham's a bit too effeminate to be a neocon. IDK... maybe that's a prerequisite.

Well then it's settled. It's just an amazing coincidence that one day after being criticized by republicans for being soft he cranks up the intensity. And if Obama really was just doing it to silence his republican critics he would have told us so.

Yep. Turns out that W was on to something good afterall. At least Obama seems to think so.

IMO it had more to do with Iranian authorities cranking up the violence.
