Obama: Not so much as a kiss, mullahs?
Letting captured terrorists go free, halting war crimes trials, losing the war -- a Democrat's work is never done! Bin Laden and Ahmadinejad and Hamas were confident Obama would prove to be a sniveling weakling who'd surrender in the war against Muslim fanatics, which is why they kept endorsing him.
The Associated Press boasted that, under Obama, the 'catchphrase' "War on Terror" is fading away, now that almost all Muslims love us because Obama went on Arab TV, where he vowed to go after al-Qaeda and "win this fight" through superior listening skills. Anyway, it was Bush's tax cuts that made them attack us.
In an interview on Al Arabiya TV, Obama complained that America has 'painted' Muslims with a negative "broad brush" just because of all the violence "done in that faith's name." Hijackings, car bombings and head-hackings notwithstanding, it's a mystery why people fear nuts chanting "Death to America!".
Obama bragged in the interview about his Muslim background, after playing down his Muslim background during the campaign. Now hardly anyone thinks he's a Muslim, given all the pork in his "stimulus" bill.
(Gone also are rumors that Obama was sworn in on the Koran. He was sworn in on Dreams from My Father.)
America liberated Muslims in Kuwait, Afghanistan, Iraq and the Balkans, fed the Somalis and gave tsunami relief, but Obama still complains that America has not treated Muslims with sufficient "respect". Vowing to change that, he pointed to his decision to close Gitmo, based on the idea that if all those nice people in Guantanamo were set free, we would be greeted as liberators.
Warren P. Strobel of McClatchy Newspapers gushed that Muslim reaction to Obama's presidency itself has been phenomenal, citing as proof the reaction of Hillary Clinton, who said "there's a great exhalation of breath going on around the world as people express their appreciation for the new direction that's being set!"
As further proof of positive Muslim reaction, other than the Al Arabiya chap who landed the interview, Strobel cited former ambassador Edward Djerejian, who used the word "superb" when talking about Obama's outreach to Muslims since becoming president.
Since taking office, Obama "has transformed the U.S. dialogue with the Muslim world," the gushing unbiased Strobel gushed.
In fact, Muslims in Pakistan welcomed Obama's transformed dialogue by beheading a couple of people, then murdering three other civilians, then kidnapping and savagely murdering another civilian, then blowing up another three civilians in a roadside attack, then stabbing a man to death because of his 'un-Islamic' dress style, then traveling to his house to murder his father, then suicide bombing two local soldiers, followed by a deadly rocket attack against a police station, followed by another kidnapping and murder of a civilian, followed by another deadly stabbing, followed by a bicycle bomb attack killing six civilians, followed by a murder/kidnapping, an assassination, a throat-slitting, then closing out the month with eleven other murders (Religionofpeace.com). More than ten days worth of celebration.
Muslims in Somalia erupted with joy as well, getting in on the spirit by blowing up fifteen people in a bus bombing in Mogadishu, then offing four other people in a grenade attack at a bus stop in another town days later (Religionofpeace.com).
If, in Hillary's words, there's a "great exhalation of breath going on" because of the "new direction that's being set," there was lots of expiration going on in Thailand, Dagestan, Israel, Iran, Afghanistan and Iraq, with 84 people 'expired' at the hands of jihadi psychos welcoming the "new direction" jihopefully being set by president Al Arabiya, with more expirations in the offing.
In a sign of a nice, warm honeymoon to come, Ahmadinejad responded to Obama's outreach by whipping out a list of demands -- that Obama apologize for the Iran-Iraq war and U.S. backing of Saddam H-----n; apologize for U.S. support of the imperialistic, world-ruling Empire called Israel; apologize for knocking off the Taliban and Saddam H-----n under the pretext of 9/11, cooked up by a neoconic Joooooooish cabal under Dick Cheney; apologize for the coup of 1953. Then we can talk. Echoing Ahmadinejad, Iranian cleric Rafsanjani warned Obama to avoid Bush's rhetoric. Obama responded by demanding Pentagon cuts. Then going bananas about Rush Limbaugh.
Even though anything between Ahmadinejad, Rafsanjani and Obama amounts to a family dispute, it's clear Ahmadinejad and Rafsanjani want Obama to fail.
With Obama going all Neville Chamberlain on the terrorists, the North Koreans -- like Iran's nuclear mullahs -- aren't wasting any time, getting in on a piece of the action over the weekend by threatening to attack South Korea because of its "belligerent" politics, as opposed to the gentle, docile, low-key, harmless tender-hearted North Korea. The charge amounts to North Korea accusing South Korea of acting like North Korea. This was two days after ditching all its "peace" agreements with Seoul. But don't worry. Obama stands ready to launch a massive counterattack of more cash for Pyongyang.
And after giving Obama his prized endorsement several times during the campaign, Fidel Castro is going Ahmadinejad on Obama too, demanding the return of Guantanamo to Cuba without conditions and accusing Obama of supporting "Israeli genocide" in Gaza, which is a serious charge coming from someone who's murdered only over 100,000 people. Hugo Chavez also piled on, working himself into a frenzy demanding the quick return of Guantanamo. Obama retaliated by scheduling a cozy meeting with Chavez for April.
But it's not that Ahmadinejad and co. are making a complete fool of Obama when Obama had done a fair job of that to himself without any help. He assumed they'd all respond according to his discredited theory -- say some nice things to the nice men in Tehran and we'll all be friends. The "Obama Doctrine" of how to defeat radical Islam is to pretend there is no radical Islam. Just reaction to BushCo's 'failed' foreign policy. Give off some good vibes here and there, come across as needlessly defensive and weak for your warm-up act, and the mullahs will come around. Even al-Qaeda's video tape attacks will stop. Any ol' warmongering infidel imperialist running dog worth his salt could have told him that's bunk.
But! Obama will only tolerate being bossed around for so long. Then it's . . . tough and smart diplomacy!
Anyway, that's...

Rush has singlehandedly distracted Obama, and Obama has stupidly elevated Rush to the position equivalent of the President of the U.S.
Har!
That’s the danger with divide-and-conquer.
Those you seek to divide become the focus of attention and may unite with a newly found since of camaraderie.
Let’s hope the Republican unity in the House was a vanguard of things to come.

Milton Friedman has said that under a capitalist system you are free to discuss anything you want, including socialism. Under socialism, you may be free to discuss anything you want, except anti-socialism.
Rush would never take the pay cut...
...and 52% known as droolers.
Not so sure that’s true. For a month, they were loading busses of people down south to register and vote in Iowa.
Bump for Milton
Excellent! Have to remember that.
Wonderful as always John. Thank you.
Seems Obama has his sights set on less gamey prey now. He made mention of Jessica Simpsons weight during his pre-game interview.
That can be his superhero trait -- Super-human listening skills! He's got the ears for it.
For a POTUS to stoop so low to denounce Rush as an “enemy” is beyond belief.
Doesn't PO have more important issues to solve for our Country than harping on a Radio Show Icon?
Wish Rush was on the air today and Tuesday. Guess he is still celebrating the Steeler’s victory. What a Game! My heart and soul was into Kurt Warner winning his 2nd Super Bowl. On thing Kurt has shown us all never give up!
God Bless America.
Unfortunately Rush is off all this week....
Was rooting for Warner and the underdog Cards last night. That damn INT and return at the end of the first half was soooo huge.
Don't bet on it.
More likely, he was elected by 48% droolers and 4% ACORN manufactured votes and Democrat-run election machinery. Remember, more important than the power of the individual vote is the power of who counts the vote.
You got that right. Change that play into a TD for AZ and the outcome would probably have been very different...
