Hitting A Nerve

The gutless one doth protest too much, methinks.

[shrinkermd]

Good post. Almost to a man or woman the MSM is reporting that POTUS actually said Obama was an appeaser. Not true. But the shoe does seem to fit when you try it on.

[BunnySlippers]

He, he ... good point. I used to work for O'Neil.

[tet68]

So why would Obama issue such a stinging statement in response to the president’s remarks?

Bad advice?
You don’t hear Herself! making a hulabaloo out of this,
she’s content to watch Obama make mistakes.

The Magic Mulatto is a whiny little sh!t. Like most of the Dims.

Oh heck yeah... if they weren’t guilty, why should they care? And the line about the ingenious argument was a very good one. A keeper.

(I love the whole episode, I just wish the Bush Administration’s actions matched this sterling speech)

[nuconvert]

“why was the senator sure he was talking about him?

Guilty conscience

If the shoe fits,....

[Kaslin]

Could it be that they are guilt written?

[libs_kma]

Hit that stupid, naive, @#$%^& @#$%^& where it hurts and don't take your foot off his pencil-neck until he cries UNCLE!!!

[river rat]

"Obama claims he's not an appeaser."

Barack also claims he didn't hear hate speech from Rev. Wright.
Barack also claims he is a Christian.
Barack also claims he doesn't take money from lobbyists or Corporations.
Barack also claims he didn't receive Islamic training.
Barack also claims he will defend Israel against the onslaught of militant Islamists.

I hope the GOP finds the gonads to punch the living hell out of the myth that is Obama...

[NonValueAdded]

It’s a shame George didn’t give us 7 years of this kind of rhetoric. Still, better late than never. The Bushes like to fish and it shows; Obama bit on it like a big old bass on a expertly cast fly.

[eyedigress]

Let's not forget the not so saavy Pelosi, Biden, and Reid endorsements today. Idiots all. For Pelosi to say "beneath the dignity" then Biden saying "Bull$&(t", well, it brought a good laugh. :^)

[BerryDingle]

The whole Democratic party is offended by the reference, but if they can get Barak offended, then it “counts”.

[denydenydeny]

"We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided.' "

It's the profoundly stupid narcissism of this statement that struck a nerve with Obama. Truth hurts.

[okie01]

That infamous senator, William Edgar Borah of Idaho, wasn't even a Democrat; he was a "progressive" Republican, an isolationist who in 1919 helped wreck Woodrow Wilson's internationalist dream of a League of Nations. So why would Obama issue such a stinging statement in response to the president's remarks?

As noted, the President's reference is actually to a Republican.

Yet, I wouldn't expect the callow Obama to have any knowledge of American history beyond the year of his birth (1961). He has already revealed a deep and abiding ignorance with his comments on the Great Depression.

It is simply astounding that one of America's two great political parties can put forward -- for the Presidency -- a man who knows so little of his own country.

And that so many people who support him know even less...

[Donald Rumsfeld Fan]

Earlier this month, Obama described the takeover of West Beirut by Hezbollah gunmen as a "power grab" and declared, "It's time to engage in diplomatic efforts to help build a new Lebanese consensus."

"The best diplomat I know of is a fully charged phasor bank"

[FreeAtlanta]

If only he actually would. The left would truly reveal themselves as totally bananas

[Tucker39]

“?”The lady doth protest too much,”

Whether GWB intended that remark for BHO or not, he hit him square in the bullseye, anyhow.

As the old Kentuckian said, “If you throw a rock in amongst a bunch of coonhounds, the one that yelps is the one you hit.”

Methinks Obama and his retinue yelped pretty loud! (Smirk!)
