‘And so I think it is not at all contradictory to say that there are deep strains of anti-Semitism in the core regime, but that they also are interested in maintaining power, having some semblance of legitimacy inside their own country, which requires that they get themselves out of what is a deep economic rut that we’ve put them in, and on that basis they are then willing and prepared potentially to strike an agreement on their nuclear program.’

That is the sentence that jumps out at us in respect of President Obama’s latest interview with Jeffrey Goldberg. It is one of the most bizarre sentences ever spoken by a president of America. It reminds us of nothing so much as the ramblings of Mikhail Gorbachev. He knew Soviet Russia was a busted flush but couldn’t bring himself to say so. Mr. Obama acknowledges that he’s dealing with, in Iran’s leadership, a group of anti-Semites. So why is the President dickering to establish for them “legitimacy” in their own country?
Is “legitimacy” what is wanted by these unelected religious tyrants who are building an arsenal to use against the Jews? There was a time when we had a president who knew how to speak of Iranians who were holding our hostages. “Barbarians” was the word Ronald Reagan used, and the hostages were promptly released. They knew he had their number. What are the mullahs making of Mr. Obama’s constant yakking about how rational they are? Or of this statement to Mr. Goldberg by the President?
“Well the fact that you are anti-Semitic, or racist, doesn’t preclude you from being interested in survival. It doesn’t preclude you from being rational...

Another good editorial.
Obama outsmarts himself at every turn. He is infallibly guilty of defeating himself by overly elaborate intrigue, scheming, or the like. He thinks he is significantly smarter than he is. His inerrant foolishness is born of a firm conviction of his own brilliance. Inconvienently he has the mind of a bnad smelling, petulant child.
We have put a fool in the highest office in the land to see if we can withstand the antics of a court jester with his trigger finger on the bomb. We may not survive his antics or our own arrogance.

Could it be he was influenced by Moochelle’s pathetic Thesis at Princeton...
All about herself and her blatant focus on skin color rather than the content of people’s character.
The irony is that she said on Page 2:
“...attending Princeton will likely lead to my further integration/assimilation into a White culture and societal structure that will only allow me to remain on the periphery of society; never becoming a full participant.”
Ummmm, Moochelle, the country actually elected you as the first Black first lady...
Would you now admit your racist college sentiments were totally wrong?
No. The only change that will end her feelings of racial inferiority would be to wake up tomorrow morning with white skin. She believes she is inferior because she is black. Nothing will change that. She is the very essence of a racist.
Yes, Iran's racism is just fine and something he CAN work with.
