From Drudge:

OBAMA NUANCE IN AP INTERVIEW:

ON IRAN ATTAINING NUKES: ‘NOT RECONCILED WITH THAT’...

ON PROLONGED DETENTIONS: ‘GIVES ME HUGE PAUSE’...

ON WHITE FIREFIGHTER COURT RULING: ‘VERY NARROW... HARD TO GAUGE’...

ON AFFIRMATIVE ACTION: ‘DON’T THINK THAT HIRING ON BASIS OF RACE...ALONE IS CONSTITUIONALLY POSSIBLE’...

And who let him get away with this?

Barry’s got both feet firmly planted in late 1800’s-era Marxism, his head wrapped around 1950’s cold-war era central control, both ass cheeks sitting proudly with old worn out 1960’s Alinsky theories, and both hands clinging to old worn-out 1600’s czarist bureaucracy. Barry and Puty-pute have a lot of history to review.

Oh wow.

When the "nuances" start becoming front page news and the public is finally on to them, that's when we'll be starting to win.

"the U.S. is not seeking an antagonistic relationship but wants cooperation on nuclear nonproliferation, fighting terrorism, energy issues, that we'll end up having a stronger partner overall in this process," he said."

Yeah, I'm sure Putin will be real impressed with Obama's Chicago gangland style diplomatic skills....

Barry, when you look him in the eyes, remember, you are looking into the eyes of a killer. You, are a talker.

The Cold War IS over in Obambi’s worldview. He's ready to capitulate to Communism.

We’d be much better off if we had Homer J. Simpson as pres. I know for a definite fact that Homer is a helluva lot smarter than what we got now.

Good ole Obama, can’t tell the puppet from the master.
We are SOOOOOO screwed.

One foot in the past?

Why not say it right, “One foot covered in BLOOD.”

Obama want’s to bare our soul before the world and apologize
for all our mistakes but calling out the bloody history of
communist Socialism is beyond him.

A pox on the man.
