At least gas-prices-wise.... (I know, I know, the effect is not direct, but the threat of trouble with Iran causes the speculation on high oil prices.)</p> </div></div></div> Tue, 13 Mar 2012 05:45:23 +0000 artappraiser comment 150920 at http://dagblog.com Would a real war with Iran http://dagblog.com/comment/150914#comment-150914 <a id="comment-150914"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/link/obama-approval-rating-shows-serious-slip-new-poll-13288">Obama Approval Rating Shows Serious Slip in New Poll</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>Would a real war with Iran poll better than talk of war for the Prez, at least until the election?
