Axis Of Evil: Bush Right, Obama Wrong

Iran did something fairly important this week, in the grand scheme of things. Iran proved that President Bush and his “Axis of Evil” comment was accurate, and that President/Senator Obama (and all his liberal allies with blinders on) with his Pollyannish “Iran is not a threat” was wrong. Deadly wrong.(snip) Who is that naive and stupid? (Read Barry Buffoon)Combine this news with their known missile program (and their mad leader’s claims to wipe Israel off the map) and it becomes clear that Iran is taking this world into the abyss of hell.

The thing is, when Bush made that remark, the regimes in Iran and Iraq still hated each other and were the same regimes that went to war in the 1980s. And Ahmedinjehad was two years away from even becoming Mayor of Tehran. And considering how Bush bent over for the Koreans once they actually (unlike the other two, until now for Iran) showed the capability of nuclear weaponry, the phrase is more incorrect than simply silly.

“Obama is also wrong on Taxes, Socialized Medicine, random stimulus spending, Israel, supreme court nominations, missle defense......”

I hear he’s an expert on pizza and beef. Oh, I forgot cocaine and buggery.

RAO, silly? This from Nicolas Sarkozy... indeed:

“We are here to guarantee peace. We are right to talk about the future. But the present comes before the future, and the present includes two major nuclear crises. The peoples of the entire world are listening to what we are saying, including our promises, commitments and speeches. But we live in the real world, not in a virtual one.

We say that we must reduce. President Obama himself has said that he dreams of a world without nuclear weapons. Before our very eyes, two countries are doing exactly the opposite at this very moment. Since 2005, Iran has violated five Security Council Resolutions. [Ed note: Sarkozy then listed international proposals for dialogue with Iran attempted in 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009.] I support America’s extended hand. But what have these proposals for dialogue produced for the international community? Nothing but more enriched uranium and more centrifuges. And last but not least, it has resulted in a statement by Iranian leaders calling for wiping off the map a Member of the United Nations. What are we to do? What conclusion are we to draw? At a certain moment hard facts will force us to take decisions.

… Secondly, there is North Korea — and there it is even more striking. It has violated every Security Council decision since 1993. It pays absolutely no attention to what the international community says. Even more, it continues ballistic missile testing. How can we accept that? What conclusions should we draw? …”

You didn’t pay attention. The term Axis implies co-operation between parties, which certainly didn’t exist. Iraq didn’t have nuclear weapons. Iran doesn’t have nuclear weapons, although they are getting close. And when North Korea showed that they had a nuke, we went and paid them off. So when David Frum wrote that line, either he was ignorant of the reality he was mugged by, or he didn’t care.
