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."

*Sigh* The Taliban taking Obama to school.
How freakin’ sad is that? ****
And this is after Putin told Zero socialism is not a good idea. Zero is a manchild.

No one takes Obama seriously.
Except for the American mainstream media.

You know an assclown is in the Oval Office when even the Taliban are scratching their heads.
Proof that Pres. Bush was right on the WOT is the visceral hatred the Islamofascists maintained in high flames for him.

You’re right.
It is both amusing and terrifying when reality cannot be distinguished from satire.

I don’t recall hearing much from the Taliban when Bush was President.
The Taliban were cutthroats (literally) who brutally oppressed the Afghan people.

Darn, America’s Left had such high hopes for negotiations with the Taliban.

...now both Putin and Taliban have inadvertently done more to protect us than our President. And don't forget that Iran set out conditions that had to be met before they would talk with dumb0. We couldn't have wished for a more stupid interim president!

I had to double check the source and keywords to make sure this wasn’t satire.

They probably heard Obama's logic would be to bring some dumb videos to any talks with them, like he gave the British PM. And they don't want any stupid plastic helicopters either.
Seriously, Obama has been given a loud message by the Taliban that his foreign policy and understanding of their goals are totally off the mark. He better learn fast. With him as President, their next message just might come quickly and hit a mark somewhere in the U.S.

The Taliban is not interested in, nor will it tolerate, “Moderate” groups cutting a deal with the “Great Satan.” They “all hang together so they don't all hang together.” Traitors don't last long in that part of the ideological world.
