Sunday Morning Mashup of NBC MEET THE PRESS:
JIM WEBB
May 18, 2008
Instead of likening talks with Iran to Nazi Appeasement, Jim Webb prefers another comparison...
"President Bush were to use the right historical example, he probably should be looking at China in the 1970s, rather than the situation in Germany in the 1930s. Where we had a rogue regime with nukes, with an American war on its border, that was spouting all of this hostile rhetoric and was not a part of the international community. And by aggressive diplomacy at the same time that we kept all of our other options on the table and maintained all of our other alliances, we were able to, arguably, bring China into the international community."

This is a composite of a series of images photographed from a mounted camera on the Earth-orbiting International Space Station, from approximately 240 miles above Earth. Expedition 31 Flight Engineer Don Pettit said of the about photographic techniques used to achieve the images: "My star trail images are made by taking a time exposure of about 10 to 15 minutes. However, with modern digital cameras, 30 seconds is about the longest exposure possible, due to electronic detector noise effectively snowing out the image. To achieve the longer exposures I do what many amateur astronomers do. I take multiple 30-second exposures, then ?stack? them using imaging software, thus producing the longer exposure." A total of 18 images photographed by the astronaut-monitored stationary camera were combined to create this composite. Image Credit: NASA...
