Howard is not as PC as Bush .. and he will eat Obama-Osama for lunch!! I LOVE IT!!

[kittymyrib]

This product of the third-world certainly has a big mouth. Since he has zero experience in anything except being black in Chicago, he is going to implode and leave nothing but a black hole where his Leftist presidential bid once was.

I'm sure Mr Howard is less than impressed.If he responds at all(you can't swat every fly)I think it will be scathing.

[JHBowden]

PM Howard just made us a campaign ad in the event Osama-Obama is the nominee.

Nice.

"Chickenhawk" is a term used by people who want to deflect the criticism that they are chicken.

[Gunny P]

Perhaps Obama should saddle-up to Iraq and go Whamma..looks young and fit...

I saw Obama make the statement on Fox.

However, the AP claims it was his aide:

Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs, traveling with the senator in Iowa, said Howard's words were misguided.

"The United States has sacrificed more than 3,000 brave young men and women and $400 billion, only to find ourselves mired in the middle of a sectarian civil war," he said. "Even Republicans ... know that more of the same is only going to attract more terrorists to Iraq and make our country less safe."

Gibbs went on to say that Howard was not in a position to be overly critical.

"If Prime Minister Howard truly believes what he says, perhaps his country should find its way to contribute more than just 1,400 troops so some American troops can come home," he said. "It's easy to talk tough when it's not your country or your troops making the sacrifices."

I believe my own eyes. Oh goody, here's a repeat on Fox.

Obama, show me your birth certificate. "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

Chickenhawk is infinitely better than Chickensh!t.

...*grins*...pssssst Mr Howard. "Ears" is weak on the
confidence level,and before very long will succumb to race being an issue. Hildabeast has the ammo and will dispatch her minions, Ears will fold like a Dean polaroid.

Good article-thanx.Barack is(imo)making a very serious mistake,but a very understandable one.He's begining to believe the msm's opinion that he is a person of intellect.A political"heavyweight".I haven't(yet)heard or read anything from or about Obama that indicates anything other than a talking head who's main appeal is that he's part black and photogenic.

[Miss Didi]

My, my...how presidential.

[SandRat]

Obama has figured out yet that it's not smart to name call PM Howard.

[dforest]

Dog gone it. Obama is already making us look like pariahs in the face of our allies. Now we really will not have a friend left...or do I mean friend right?

[Eva]

That's a great example of Obama's diplomatic skill. The man is as full of hate as the Islamists.

[rockinqsranch]

Let's adjust that statement to be more realistic...

"Responding to Howard’s criticism of Obama’s Iraq surrender-by-May plan, Obama wrinkled his nose and stuck out his tongue at the Prime Minister."

[italianquaker]

Obama=namchurian candidate
