Bomb Iran? Not a good idea for this president

Obama should not consider bombing Iran because he will probably screw it up, just like he has his other initiatives. Given his obsequiousness to the Muslim world, would people conclude that it was screwed up on purpose? It will result in our fighting a war under the command of someone who no-one really trusts, and whose political prospects are so bleak that a resignation, a la Richard Nixon, might be in order.
