When have we ever mucked up "helping" another country in overthrowing an oppressive leaderhsip? I challenge you to name just one example. Just one. (Note: the challenge is to limit yourself to only one.)

Agreed. I really believe now

Agreed. I really believe now is the time to leave Iran alone as much as possible so that we don't have 1979 all over again. There's plenty of time to play spectator and see if the people shake off the government themselves. Because we'd just muck it all up.

Hard to pin this one exclusively on the Republicans. Congressional Democrats will line up like lemmings behind anything that sounds tough on Iran. No matter how counterproductive it may be.
