What is the difference between MSNBC and Baghdad Bob?

Baghdad Bob was a lightweight.

I'm sure that Baghdad Bob knew that was he was saying was a lie. With Sanders, I'm not so sure... it's hard to say just how much of the kool-aid she drinks. There are brief glimpses of awareness, but they only seem to correspond to the moments when something makes her personally look like an idiot... or more of an idiot than normal.

Let's see. Benjamin Nuttinbutayahoo three years ago said Iran would have a bomb in 3 months. Clearly that didn't happen. So.....why is scrapping the Iran deal a good idea again? Do we want Iran to get a bomb?

There's no cogent argument. At this point, the only thing that makes sense to me is that it was an Obama accomplishment and therefore must be considered to be bad to maintain party purity.

They have been saying that for decades now, since iran is obviously completely incapable or not trying to get the bomb, why have a deal at all? but that's all rather off topic to the point of my post.

How easy we forget. On November 19, 2015, the State Department sent a letter to then-Representative Mike Pompeo that severely undercuts the notion that the Iran deal represents any form of binding American commitment. It turns out that the Obama administration not only acknowledged that the deal wasn’t a treaty (obvious enough), but it also admitted that it wasn’t “an executive agreement” or even a “signed document.” Here are the key paragraphs:

Ummmm....your video was Sarah Sanders trashing Obama, Hillary and Kerry over the nuke deal. So...it's not at all off topic. It would be the same if she trashed Cindy Sheehan for advocating that we pull out of Syria. I might not like everything Cindy Sheehan advocates but she is right on that point.

As for Iran wanting or not wanting the bomb, remember Iran isn't a monolithic country despite what we are led to believe by the MSM. There are those in Iranian circles of power who see engagement as the way forward and those who believe they must have a deterrent from western threats of regime change. I look at post 9/11 regime change and regime change attempts. According to the CIA reports released post Gulf War 2, Saddam destroyed his chemical weapons program in 1991. (See: https://www.cia.gov/library/reports/...004/chap5.html) But claims about it were still the justification for regime change in 2003. Qaddafi had a chance to get nukes from Pakistan but instead abandoned that idea and helped expose Pakistan's clandestine nuclear weapons export market. His reward for doing the right thing? We killed him. (See: https://www.csmonitor.com/Commentary...-give-up-nukes) By contrast North Korea actually has nukes as well as backing from China. Guess who we haven't messed with? If Iran decides the only way to keep the U.S. at bay is to get nukes......

It is offtopic as to the point of my post. my intent was to display the manner and skill in which she defended her employer. totally different than Baghdad bob, brutally efficient really.
