Obama-lama-ding-dong has met the enemy, and he is it.
If Obama and the rest of the ‘Rats on board the S.S. Appeasement are so upset about a speech Bush made to the Knesset in which the only person of historical reference mentioned was Hitler, what does this say about them?
They all wish they were that lone unidentified senator who in 1939, wished he had been able to “talk to Hitler”.
John McCain (who I still thoroughly despise), damn near has this election in the bag, unless he manages to lose it (which is not at all an impossibility).
That unidentified senator turns out to be a Republican, William Borah, of Idaho. And Bush is not the first person to use him as an example of an appeaser (to take the load off poor old Neville?). Senator Borah's Wikipedia article even has a section devoted to the Hitler quote:
Hitler quote
Borah may be best known today for having allegedly said, in September 1939, after Germany invaded Poland, "Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided."[9] The quote has been repeatedly cited as evidence of the alleged naivete of attempts to negotiate with one's enemies. Conservative commentator Charles Krauthammer has referred to the quote in at least three of his columns, making an analogy to negotiating with China in 1989, with North Korea in 1994 and with Iran in 2006.[10] In August 2006 United States Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld referred to the quote when decrying those who want to "negotiate a separate peace with terrorists".[11]On May 15, 2008, President George W. Bush referred to the quote in a speech to the Knesset in Israel commemorating that nation's 60th anniversary, after stating, "some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along."[12] Some, including Barack Obama himself, interpreted Bush's comment to be a criticism of Obama for his stated willingness to negotiate with the leaders of Iran. CNN reported that White House staff had confirmed this off the record, although Bush's official spokeswoman denied it to the New York Times.[13] Some White House staff stated the reference was meant more as a criticism of former president Jimmy Carter, who has argued that the U.S. should be willing to meet with Hamas.[12]
I agree with you 100%-—on everything!
