The Cheat Sheet, November 3: Obama to Bomb Iran?

If the Occupy movement and the GOP primary haven’t become hostile enough for you, there is news of other potentially even more significant possible hostilities to report. At the same time, were there a Republican in the White House, this would be being called Wag the Dog, blood for oil, or some such nonsense by the usual suspects.

The UK and U.S. are drawing up plans to attack Iran amid growing tensions in the Middle East, it was claimed last night. Barack Obama and David Cameron are preparing for war after reports that Iran now has enough enriched uranium for four nuclear weapons.

Which raises a question: who would ‘loan’ the organization $150,000 to allegedly support Cain’s fledgling candidacy?

An #OccupyBoston protester was arrested for selling Xanax to an undercover cop. You’ll no doubt recall multiple instances of drug dealing at last year’s tea parties…

DOOM: I fall to pieces

The Comprehensive EuroFail:

Europe’s institutions cannot cope. Decades of building intricate rules and complicated institutions have failed to create an institutional architecture than can resolve basic disputes.

A French magazine was bombed after it put a picture of Mohammed on its cover:

Reuters reports that a French publication has been bombed (and its website hacked) after it ran an issue that had been “guest-edited” by the prophet Mohammed:

A key House Committee voted to subpoena all internal White House documents related to Solyndra.

Finally, if you’re wondering whose side God’s on in all this, Barack Obama thinks he knows. Reverend Jeremiah Wright was unavailable for comment at press time.

President Barack Obama Wednesday said even God wanted to put Americans back to work, invoking divine blessing for his joust with Republicans over measures designed to slice into high unemployment.
