President Bush attacked a key foreign policy stance of Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.), contending heatedly at a news conference Thursday morning that talking to dictators without preconditions can be dangerous and counterproductive.

Bush has got plenty on his plate. But why shouldn’t he point this out?

Does he want to go tit for tat on everything Barry brings up? He's not running for reelection, what does he care?. On top of that, he is profoundly unpopular, like it or not. He should stick to business and leave the politicking to others. IMO.

Once again either President Bush prefers Hillary wins, or its premature attack.

This is GREAT material for John McCain to use on Obama. These are perfect and GREAT arguments.

Too bad now Hillary’s camp can and will use it.

Here are two great Quotes:

“What’s lost ... by embracing a tyrant who puts his people in prison because of their political beliefs?” he said. “What’s lost is, it’ll send the wrong message. It’ll send a discouraging message to those who wonder whether America will continue to work for the freedom of prisoners. It’ll give great status to those ... who have suppressed human rights and human dignity.

Warming to the subject, Bush continued: “Sitting down at the table, having your picture taken with a tyrant such as Raul Castro, for example, lends the status of the office and the status of our country to him. He gains a lot from it by saying, ‘Look at me. I’m now recognized by the president of the United States.’”

Um, no. He needs to tell the people what this jackass wants to do to undermine the effort to secure a lasting presence in a strategic region of the world. It’s not that they have all that oil. They also have all that US DOLLAR denominated money. We have to be a credible force to act as a protectorate. It’s all fiat in the end. So yes our President has a duty to tell the people this idiot’s beliefs are screwed up and probably the result of indoctrination by his anti-tech, anti-global growth, anti-USA mom.

But in a way we need to still hold fire. He hasn’t got it locked up yet. Hillary threw fresh meat to the right to help her win. We are helping Hillary.

Point well taken but this is the first time I've seen Bush comment on Obama.

It's Bush's duty to support the GOP and attempt to point out weaknesses on the rat side. (as pathetic as it may be)

Seems W is the only republican with some wal-nuts to hit Osama back hard. AND WHY NOT? HUSSEIN keeps lying through his teeth and constantly blaming W for this and that. GOOD FOR W! The RNC are nothing but idiots and NOT one red cent will be mailed to them until they grow a few!!

HUSSEIN Obama attacked Bush. Bush is just responding to Hussein’s nonsense.

The proper way to address Barack is:,

Barack “Can’t Say His Middle Name” Obama.

OR,

Barack “Arab Christan” Obama,

OR,

Barack “Arab American” Obama,

OR,

Barack “Dad was a Muslim” Obama,

BUT YOU CAN NOT USE,

HUSSEIN

I have been convinced for some time that Bush is
an airhead..takes after his mother..stubborn and
can’t keep his nose clean...he listens to other
people and then gets involved over his head at
times...next he will be advising McCain..then it
is over...Hello Obama. JK

That’s the Bush I voted for!

I wish he had shown up a bit more during the last 7 years.

I dunno....I don't think Bush is an airhead...tha's a bit much.

It does seem to me though that once a person get elected it changes them, i.e the power corrupts etc.

Lack of commitment to principles maybe?

Perhaps a self induced coma for the next 4-8yrs is preferable! God help our Nation and grandchildren!
