"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.'

Some distant relative of B. Hussein Obama's?

He would sell out America and abandon our military as he creates a Euro-style government for the US.

He's already laying out the plan to dismantle the military.  He wants the US weak.

WASHINGTON — Democratic Rep. Pete Stark launched a shocking one-man assault on the Bush administration Thursday, interrupting floor debate before a failed attempt to override President Bush's veto of the so-called SCHIP bill to suggest that U.S. troops in Iraq are getting their heads “blown off for the president's amusement.”

This is a “appalling attack”!

I want a list of all these attacks by Dems.

 "Not surprising idiot Obama didn’t pick up on that."

I am truly appalled at the amount of things this guy says that can tear him apart, but even more upset that Republicans keep missing the tee-shots that he sets up.  A couple of months ago Obama was talking about no WMD found in Iraq, pointing to the one intelligence agency out of fifteen that said Hussein had no WMDs.  A quick thinking Republican (which we seem to be lacking) would have said.  "OK, so if 1 out of 15 saying no WMDs exist is enough to NOT go to war... Are you saying that if only 1 in 15 said he DID have WMDs, you would have gone to war?"

But no... the putz gets a pass on his stupid comment.  I am wholly unimpressed with the RNC of today.

Yesterday Obama said McCain had a "naive and irresponsible belief that tough talk from Washington will somehow cause Iran to give up it's nuclear program and support for terrorism."  LINK   So does the RNC or anyone from McCain's campaign get on the air and ask... "Does Obama believe that pillow talk from Washington will cause Iran to give up it's nuclear program?"

Obama said in a statement his aides distributed. "George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists, and the president's extraordinary politicization of foreign policy and the politics of fear do nothing to secure the American people or our stalwart ally Israel."  Obama is so cock-sure of his position as the world's brightest man that he missed the hilarity of his own statement,  as the President was making these remarks to a standing ovation in front of the Knesset. If they agreed with Obama, they wouldn't have been applauding the President.

Republicans are afraid to punch back at this lame idiot.  This guy is going to get a free pass and win the White House simply because he's black and everyone else is afraid to be called a racist for doing nothing more than questioning this man.

Bush attacked the “IDEA” of appeasement of tyrannical dictators and those who would and have supported genocide of Israel. He was speaking to the Kinnessette. Obama, and the dems in this country, have received this attack as an appointed criticism of Obama. He devined that it was he who Bush was talking about. It seems that Obama would agree with Bush’s assertion, rather than assume the mantle of appeasor and take umbridge of Bush’s statement. The shoe apparently fit Obama and therefore Obama took the statement personally. Obama convicted himself of being in alliance with those who appeased Hitler and now, common day tyrants.

Hmmmm. Just tell Iran that we don’t want them to have WMDs, and, if they don’t see it that way, we’ll attack them. That’s how to do it, says Obama.

How is that different than our current policy? (Except our current policy is undermined by these idiots, saying something can be just because they want it to be).

I think he also said that HE will lower gas prices, because they should be lower.

Hillary will be the biggest beneficiary of this idiocracy.

The Dems will be begging for her as their nominee when he begins actual policy discussions with an actual foe.

I have been wondering what it was going to be. I didn’t think Hillary could nuke him, given that the press IS in his camp.

This was just a media ploy. Look at all the media time he got opposing Bush. The Dems are eating it up. Even Fox had BO’s pic right up on the screen next to Bush’s. Trying for the presidential look......didn’t quite work.

BHO responds by agreeing, referring to Israel as an “open sore.”

This is off-topic, but why don't we turn the MSM's deification of Obama into an opportunity to permanently de-claw the IRS?

This post (<-click), while addressing taxes, helps to explain why government "leaders" like Obama are actually in contempt of the Constitution that they have sworn to defend, foolishly following in the footsteps of FDR's dirty federal spending politics.

In fact, the article referenced below shows that Obama is the #1 federal spending proposer in the Senate for '08; Clinton is #2.

Obama, a big-shot federal spender
The people need to reconnect with the Founder's division of federal and state government powers. The people then need to wise up to the major problem that the federal government is not operating within the restraints of the federal Constitution, particularly where constitutionally unauthorized federal spending is concerned.

The bottom line is that the people need to send big-shot, Constitution-ignoring federal spenders like Obama home as opposed to trying to send people like him to the Oval Office. The people need to get in the faces of the feds, demanding a stop to constitutionally unauthorized federal spending while appropriately lowering federal taxes - or get out of DC.

Since Pres Bush was speaking of the Nazis, he very well could have been speaking of the appeaser, Neville Chamberlain, of GB who thought he could “reason” with Hitler. Obama, thinking only of himself, thought Bush was speaking of HIM. What a narcissist! It’s all about him. Bush was making a statement of fact that you can’t reason with terrorists. The only thing they understand is a gun. What would you talk about? Now, can you give us a little time to get our house in order before you blow yourself and us up? Do we need to convert to Islam? Would that save us? Anything, just tell us what to do.

Actually, in his speech, Bush specifically made reference to a US Senator who served in the Senate at the beginning of WWII, and who lamented that he could have reasoned with Hitler if he’d been there when Hitler was invading Poland.

So unless Obama is this Senator’s reincarnated soul, it seems pretty clear that Bush was not referring to Obama.

“Attack?” Bush did not even mention Obama’s name. Methinks he doth protest too much.”
Then again, I don't know why he even denies he wants to deal with terror masters. He has boasted that such is the case. Also: he wants to surrender to Al Quaeda; promises not to monitor their communications to the USA ;pledges he will ease visa restrictions on persons from countries known to spawn terror; opposes the Patriot Act; wants to extend full US constitutional rights to foreign terrorists captured on foreign soil. His entire security policy is designed to make life more pleasant for the terrorists and more dangerous for America.

In his victory speech after the North Carolina primary, Sen. Barack Obama said this:

"I trust the American people to understand that it is not weakness, but wisdom to talk not just to our friends, but to our enemies, like Roosevelt did, and Kennedy did, and Truman did."

Roosevelt and Truman both insisted on the unconditional surrender of the Nazis and Japanese, and Kennedy was trying to prove to Nikita Khrushchev that he wasn't going to let him be pushed around just because he was a Democrat. Obama makes no such representation.

Now, here's Obama in a New York Times interview:

Q: "Would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea?"

A: "I would". (responded Obama)

'nuff said.

I am glad McCain backed Bush on this one. Obama must be feeling like Bush hit the mark or he wouldn't have gotten so upset about it. He looks like a fool claiming Bush was attacking him when no name was mentioned. This means, simply, that he knows he talked of appeasement and didn't like being outed.

He says that tough talk won't solve anything, missing the point that tough talk backed up by action has solved many things in this world. Talk tough to the muslims and back it up with action the way we have in Iraq and Afghanistan. Barry want's to talk soft and do nothing to terrorists, a plan of action that has never worked in the past.
