1) Its a stupid question. What does she expect, for McClellan to say "yes we are going to attack iran, we'll be coming from the east and south on this day at this hour" If we were going to we certainly wouldn't publicize it so.
2) It is entirely appropriate. The problem is that these bombs have the word nuclear in them and nuclear conjures up all kinds of images and bad publicity. These aren't the same weapons that we dropped on Japan. These are tactical bunker-busing nuclear bombs. There are not weapons of mass destruction. they aren't going to vaporize a city. The detonate far underground (where the nuclear plants are). What is the point of putting all the resources into developing these weapons for a scenerio such as this and then keeping that option off the table entirely?
