To the Left, appeasement cones as second nature. Which thw initmitable Mark Steyn memorializes in an unforgettable paragraph:

"Sen. Obama is proposing to reward a man who pledges to wipe Israel off the map with a presidential photo-op to which he will bring not even a twig. No wonder he’s so twitchy about it."

No wonder Obama and company are ninnies.

Just saw a segment on the TODAY show while surfing. NBC “reporter” interviewed a black writer for the WaPo editorial page...guess what...?

Obama gets as “A” for his response to this “attack” from the Bush White House. Implication is...this was a disgraceful use of the President’s offices in a political campaign...

No one else was interviewed...no other point of view allowed...the casual TV watcher would believe that Obama was unfairly attacked and stood his ground in a way that was outstanding...

this is what passed for tv “news” today.

As I wrote in another column, Obama is the biggest WHINER, I have ever seen on the national stage. There must be some cartoon character that the GOP could hang around his neck to get this point across. Who can come up with one?

Maybe we could have someone create a photo with a blue ribbon on Obama’s chest reading “The BIGGEST Whiner!”

Terrorist Imam Hassan Qazwini with Hezbollah Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah,
and the terrorist thereafter dealing with Baraq Hussein Obama

The result?:

"I will cut investments in unproven missile defense systems, ....I will not weaponize space...
I will slow development of future combat systems...
I will institute a 'Defense Priorities Board' to ensure the quadrennial defense review is not used ...."

Money quote:

“Here are some words of Hussein Massawi, the former leader of Hezbollah: “We are not fighting so that you will offer us something. We are fighting to eliminate you.”

True enough. If the Democrats ARE against appeasement, they shouldn't have been outraged at what Bush said. Talks with evil people only weaken the will of a free people to resist evil and strengthen those who are evil in their conviction the West will do nothing to stop them. In our generation, some have not learned the lessons of Munich.

...THE APPEASER SAID:

“[This] will not be a year of politics as usual. It can be a year of inspiration and hope, and it will be a year of concern, of quiet and sober reassessment of our nation’s character and purpose.
It has already been a year when voters have confounded the experts.
“There is a new mood in America. We have been shaken by a tragic war abroad and by scandals and broken promises a home. Our people are searching for new voices and new ideas and new leaders.

“We have been without leadership too long. We have had divided and deadlocked government too long.
“It is time for America to move and to speak not with boasting and belligerence but with a quiet strength, to depend in world affairs not merely on the size of an arsenal but on the nobility of ideas.

“It is time for us to take a new look at our own government, to strip away the secrecy, to expose the unwarranted pressure of lobbyists.
“It is time for a nationwide comprehensive health program for all our people.

“We can have an American government that does not oppress or spy on its own people but respects our dignity and our privacy and our right to be let alone.”


Excerpts from “Our Nation’s Past and Future:” Acceptance speech delivered by the Democratic Party nominee, Gov. Jimmy Carter, July 15, 1976......

THE REST IS HISTORY

b. Hussein Obama sounds like he has got a guilty conscience. I think it is good to hear the Islamo Marxist whine.

Of course they are. There's that cartoon of a liberal walking with a jihadist talking of finding common ground only to discover his head lopped off. The other side knows what it wants and some in the West are under the delusion all they want is to be left alone. Not quite.

Barack Obama is simply a black Jimmy Carter. I think the American people need to get a good dose of what this man will do to America. Apparently, one Carter term wasn't enough of a lesson for the country.

As regards those bottom three pictures of yours, there is a saying that the past is not dead. It is not even the past.

That certainly applies to the future horrors we'll experience (like the ones in your post) if b. Hussein Obama becomes president.

No Obama is self-absorbed. As the Messiah, he's above it all. Which is bunk.

His remarks sound like the squeal of the stuck. If he thought he was above it all, he would've been above responding to Pres. Bush's criticism of Jimmy Carter. Instead he acted like Pres. Bush was talking about him personally.

The media is really brazen on this one. I’ve lost count how many times a reporter or commentator said the President attacked Obama.

President Bush didn't mention any Democrat in his address. But it still stuck a nerve. If these people aren't doing what the President describes, they're shrug it off. But they don't and that's very revealing about their inner psychological landscape. They do believe America is fundamentally wrong and while they wouldn't use Jeremiah Wright's language to describe it, they can't bring themselves to believe America is actually a good country.

Struck a nerve -- YES!

Obviously, there are items on the agenda that the free world can never concede on — “President Clinton’s immoral acts” — but who’s to say most of the rest isn’t worth chewing over?

Nails it. No pun intended.

“Sweetie” happened immediately prior to “Appeaser.”

In order to prevent “sweetie” from getting legs, the Obama camp wagged the dog by jumping on anything at all that Pres. Bush said...in this case “appeaser statements.”

They were also able to use it to connect Bush to McCain.

This reveals a strategy they intend to use. Anything Pres. Bush says will be linked to McCain to make them appear the same.

They will have full complicity of the media, to include Fox.
