Why would the nukes re-alignment prove anything? I have no idea how the nuke contengency works, and I'm not assuming you are wrong, but why point to that as a point of escalation? The US has been stepping up its presence in the gulf for months and running drills and war games right off the coast. Also I'm not sure 6 nukes (thats the number right) is much of a threat to the Iranian regime, and at any rate I cannot fathom that any elected official, civilian, or military personnal would think NUKING Iran would be a smart action. Don't get me wrong I'm sure there is some uber-ridiculous blow hard who says its a legitimate option, but Bush is not that stupid (although I have been wrong in the past).
As for what Bush thinks the Iraqi resolution applies to or not, put it all on the congress at this point. The dems need to show that they are not a bunch of politicking gabroni's and at least attempt to reign in executive power if the threat of military action in Iran is so tangible. If anything happens its as much their fault as it is his.
