What if Bush went to Tehran?

NEWS: Students Cry Out for Freedom in Large Demonstration at Tehran University
The forwarder said, in effect, imagine what Air Force One touching down in Tehran might set off?

Indeed, that's why I titled the original section in the Feb 05 article in Esquire: "Nixon Goes to Tehran."

Going on the offensive in the Long War ain't always about going kinetic, but it's always about shaking things up and putting the other guy on his heels.

You know what happens when I'm losing? Getting embarrassed? Running out of options?

I crank up the confidence even higher and try another path, another window, another door.

And I do so with maximum offense in mind.

My regime is sound. Iran's is not.

My economy's humming. Iran's is not.

My military is world class. Iran's is not.

My future is bright. Iran's is not.

Bush wastes our swagger and confidence on the worst things, like "stay the course," when our options are many and our strengths profound.

Our biggest boots-on-the-ground asset is staring us in the face--the Iranian people.

If only Bush would cowboy up when it matters and where it matters, it'd be wheels down in Tehran later today.

Thanks to an anonymous reader for sending this in.
