Taliban say Obama's call on moderates "illogical"
Reuter ^ | Tue Mar 10, 2009 | Reporting by Sayed Salahuddin; Editing by David Fox

Afghanistan's Taliban on Tuesday turned down as illogical U.S. President Barack Obama's bid to reach out to moderate elements of the insurgents, saying the exit of foreign troops was the only solution for ending the war.

snip

"The Taliban are united, have one leader, one aim, one policy...I do not know why they are talking about moderate Taliban and what it means?,"

"If it means those who are not fighting and are sitting in their homes, then talking to them is meaningless. This really is surprising the Taliban."

It would be nice to see him giving that thumbs down to the Marxist Imbecile in Chief on American Idol - maybe that'd get his attention (at least his daughters might notice).

But then, he may not be smart enough (Simon that is - I wouldn't know, personally).

This moment of logic and clarity brought to you by The Taliban.

Somebody wake me from this absurd nightmare.

I feel like crying, by slapping Obama’s hand away, now both Putin and Taliban have inadvertently done more to protect us than our President.

Yep - the sooner the better, just like with Micheal Steele. The sooner the better.

Then we can started on the real 'reset' instead of the 'overcharge' we're currently stuck with.

Never thought I say this, but the Taliban makes more sense on this than our boy wonder president.

BO is stinking up the place...

Well, if you’re a liberal who like Obama can’t speak a second language, you can compensate a little by saying things like Tolly-bahn and Poki-stahn.

We need to 'deodorize' the White House.

Obama’s not to tired...He’s too busy working on his surrender plan...

That makes me wonder, do we know if Obama has some French in him?

It’s a sad day indeed when the President of America is also the enemy of America.

Makes me almost long for the Carter days. At least back then CD rates were in the 20% range, so you could make money somewhere.

Wonder who'll be next - are they queuing in line? Seems like it.

They are just baiting him to try harder. They know Zero can't stand being snubbed by an antiamerican organization like that. Zero will just end up doing more to prove his manlove for the terrorists. They have Zero right where they want him: bent over front and center.

"Magic Zer0 get's corrected by the immoderate Taliban"

And the idiot doesn't even know or care that it was an insult. I wonder if the Taliban use the middle finger salute?

I'm picturing a bumper sticker, with a can of spray deodorant and the words "Deodorize the WH!"

(But I wouldn't want anyone to get pulled over, then visited by the SS).

It seems the entire world is gearing up for Biden’s “Test” prediction to come to fruit. Everyone, that is, except Hussein’s administration; they will all be, to a man, lined up at the podium to blame whatever horror our enemies have in store for us on Bush. Well, at least all of his staffers and sycophants that aren’t tasked with drawing up HIS response and downloading it to a handy teleprompter.

Moderate Taliban?
That would be like “Intelligent Members of Congress” or perhaps “Pro-American Liberals” - they just don’t exist!

A “moderate” Taliban is one who has advanced all the way to the Eighth Century and will actually sharpen his knife before sawing off your head.
