Guardian liveblog: Newt Gingrich actually thinks that if the Dodd-Frank financial regulation reforms, the economy will recover over-night: "If they were to repeal that tomorrow morning you would have a better housing market the next day." Also, unicorns would be seen on the grounds of the White House. | ||

Closing the straights was a threat to prevent the EU from leveling more sanctions against Iran. | ||

Ron Paul consistently makes the most sense on foreign policy, but because of the militant conservatives he'll never win based on that. | ||

No, no he doesn't. None of them make that much sense, but if you put aside Iran, Paul probably makes the least amount of sense. | ||

Closing the straights was a threat to prevent the EU from leveling more sanctions against Iran. Of course they do? Are you saying they shouldn't stand up against the EU and just let themselves get sanctioned? | ||

Iran is a Shiite state, Al-Qaeda is Sunni filtered through Salafiyyah and Qutbism. Not even close ideologically.... | ||
