I'd say the fact that we can't get control of Iraq would stop us from invading Iran, but that would MAKE SENSE!

Dole, the problem with what your thinking is A.) Bush doesn't need to get elected again, so what happens to his approval doesn't make much difference to him. B.) He's so insulated he doesn't have any idea that if we attacked Iraq his approval would plummet and C.) Failure does not make Neocons change their plans. The plan was a series of 'regime changes', The fact that the one we tried has turned into a disaster doesn't change the plan. If it did, Rummy would be out of a job and Condi wouldn't be taking Powells place. The plan is the plan. Period. That's why I think we're going to do Iran, and their Nuclear ambitions just make it a little easier.
