Jerry Springer for President

Well okay, not quite president. Jerry Springer is possibly going to run for senator of Ohio. Stephen points me to a transcript of his recent debate on CNN's crossfire. It's pretty interesting to see Jerry Springer and Ann Coulter facing off (scroll down to the bottom).

Springer: Where I think the debate is missing the point is I don't understand why going to war with Iraq will make us safer from the use of nuclear weapons or chemical or biological weapons.

Let me quickly explain. There are only three possible options. Either, one, he does not have those weapons. If he doesn't have those weapons, what's the point of going to war.

Two, which is more likely, is he does have the weapons. If he has those weapons, the best way to get him to use them is to go to war against him. Where's the sanity there?

Option three -- option three is that he did have them but he gave them to terrorists or other countries and they have them, the terrorists have them. Again, going to war against Saddam Hussein won't stop the terrorists from using it if we gave them.
