None Dare Call It "Appeasement."
Insight ^ | May 16, '08 | David Limbaugh

Posted on 05/18/2008 10:32:44 AM PDT by T.L.Sink

Let me get this straight. It's perfectly fair for Barack Obama and his cohorts to repeatedly disparage Bush's foreign policy as "cowboy diplomacy" but horrific for Bush to analogize the Democrats' approach to foreign policy to appeasing Hitler? When Obama compared Hillary's threats against Iran to Bush's threatening "bluster," no one batted an eye. But when Bush, in addressing Israel's Knesset, compared those who want to negotiate with today's tyrants and terrorists to an American senator in 1939 who lamented that Hitler's march into Poland might have been avoided "if only I could have talked to Hitler," Obama and Democrats and the MSM went ballistic. Never mind that Democrats have been politicizing foreign policy for the past seven years but also undermining our official policies in the process. Jimmy Carter's intermeddling with Hamas, Nancy Pelosi's junket to Syria, and trips to Iraq by other Democratic members of Congress [remember 'Baghdad Jim' McDermott who grovelled before Saddam before the war?] to sabotage U.S. policy are but a few of several egregious examples.

I think things are changing in that regard, I can give you evidence of this but I’ll do it by private post, if that’s OK with you. RSVP,

Exactly - In my opinion, I think one of the greatest problems we face today is that many of our politicians sinply can’t recognize pure evil even when it directly confronts us. I’m not suggesting we should rush out - without evidence - and accuse every nation that has some disagreement with us of being an enemy. That’s not the issue. But what I am saying is that at this point in time we have more than ample evidence of precisely who not only opposes us, but who wants to destroy us, according to their hostile ideology. I know this is not PC, but I genuinely believe our response is related to to our possibility of our survival,

Rush has played the “magic Negro,” song and when the expected tidal wave of charges of “racism” rolled in he explained that he got the term “magic Negro” from a liberal Los Angeles Times reporter who used the term is his columns. Only Rush!

I know.
I quote it often.

Hell, if I were to initiate something like that here on Free Republic they’d put me in time out and loads of folks would nastily call me a racist.
But this guy is still a writer for the L.A. Times.
