David Gergen: If Obama Doesn´t Respect His Own Red Line Iran and Israel Won´t Buy His Toughness
Newsbusters ^ | 4/29/13 | Noel Sheppard

Posted on 04/29/2013 1:09:16 PM PDT by Nachum

CNN senior political analyst David Gergen made a statement on CBS's Face the Nation Sunday that was rather hawkish for a former Clinton adviser.

"If [President Obama] doesn't respect his own red line on Syria, there is no question that Israel and Iran will look at that and say, 'Well, we can't trust the guy. He’s not going to be tough.'"

Is this really any surprise to anyone with more than two active brain cells?

That pink line is where those gay basketball centers cross over. Our president is much more interested in gays coming out than gas attacks on civilians or nuclear attacks from Iran.

Gergen is a knee pad idiot.

It took him this long to catch on?

I pray that Israel, or any of our allies, not count too heavily on the kenyan commie. His word is definitely worthless.

“...won’t buy his toughness”.

Gag me with a spoon. The Obamawimp has no toughness unless he’s defending gay marriage.

Oops, he lied about that too, didn’t he.

What a worthless piece of slime.

The Dear Leader is all lies and fraud surrounding
fabricated resume fraud and crime.

BUT he got a Nobel prize so he must be OK.

Obama will only be “tough” with those he has
disarmed first.
I have yet to see “toughness” in any foreign policy.

He said “Red Line” because as an islamist he knows that it doesn’t mean shiite to a fellow islamist.

If the Fraud had been GOP, we would have already heard every “red line” joke that could ever be made.

You are the President of the US for Chrissakes. At least put on a pair of Levi’s. Make an attempt to look like you are from this country.
