An Absolute Backhand—Redux
Posted by TheJOTUS on May 17, 2008
Earlier this morning B. Hussein Obama said in a speech shown on Fox News: “I have never said I would negotiate with terrorists.” Yet from his very own website he says this:
Diplomacy: Obama is the only major candidate who supports tough, direct presidential diplomacy with Iran without preconditions. Now is the time to pressure Iran directly to change their troubling behavior.
Take the biggest idiot you know. I mean the guy that is just so oblivious to common sense and reason. You know, the guy who says we didn’t land on the moon or that the dinosaurs never existed–that guy–and even he knows it is an undeniable fact that Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism. Barry says very clearly that he’s going to negotiate with them, and somehow convince them to “change their troubling behavior.” And yet, he stands there and denies it with a straight face.
It seems W really rattled Barry and the Democratic Party with his speech yesterday. But rather than ignoring Bush’s argument against appeasement, or even adopting it, B. Hussein Obama has declared that Bush intended his bashing of appeasement as an attack on his campaign, even though Bush never even mentioned the modern appeasers in his speech. Obama lashed out in a speech calling Bush’s rhetoric “appalling.”
Frankly, Bush wasn’t even referring to American politicians in his speech, but instead politicians in Europe and elsewhere who have a clear distain for Israel. No where in his speech did he point to any candidate or the Democratic Party, unless they identify themselves as the reference.
B. Hussein Obama claims he’s not an appeaser. But when President Bush attacked those who “seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists,” why was the senator so sure he was talking about him?
