PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Democratic White House hopeful Barack Obama on Wednesday disagreed with former President Jimmy Carter's overtures toward Hamas, saying he would not talk to the Islamist group until it recognized Israel and renounced terrorism.
The Illinois senator, campaigning in Pennsylvania which holds the next presidential voting contest on Tuesday, told a group of Jewish leaders he has an "unshakable commitment" to help protect Israel from its "bitter enemies."
"That's why I have a fundamental difference with President Carter and disagree with his decision to meet with Hamas," Obama said. "We must not negotiate with a terrorist group intent on Israel's destruction. We should only sit down with Hamas if they renounce terrorism, recognize Israel's right to exist and abide by past agreements."
"Hamas is not a state. Hamas is a terrorist organization," he said.
Obama's opponents have criticized him for saying as president he would be willing to meet with foreign leaders who are hostile to the Unites States. Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican John McCain have called those comments naive and said such meetings would bestow credibility on those leaders.

Obama declines to criticize Carter on Hamas (Reuters - Posted on Friday, April 11, 2008)
INDIANAPOLIS (Reuters) - U.S. Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said on Friday it was not his place to criticize former President Jimmy Carter for agreeing to meet with Hamas, although Obama said he would not meet with the militant Palestinian group.[snip]
"I'm not going to comment on former President Carter. He's a private citizen. It's not my place to discuss who he shouldn't meet with," Obama told reporters while campaigning in Indianapolis. "I know that I've said consistently that I would not meet with Hamas."
LYING LIAR.
A Kondracke quote from Special Report With Brit Hume.
Then Obama was asked by a reporter what do you think about it, and he said Im not going to criticize Jimmy Carter. Jimmy Carter is free to do what he wants to do.

Guess it depends on who hes talking to.
Will he flip flop and go back to using recreational drugs too?
Looks like Obama is trying to wring a “Sista Souljah moment” out of Jimmuh’s visit with the other anti-Semites.
And you said that you would trash our missile defense system.
Something is a lie Hussein.
Except with big ears instead of big teeth.
He must believe the nomination is a lock and he has started to move to the center a little.
Excuse me...............
Didn't I just read that Barack says he will meet with all the leaders of terrorist nations, like Iran?
Remember Barack............
"Words do count.".............
Especially your own!!................
Eat them, you lying pos!
This same type of liberation theology has been used for decades in Latin America to pervert Catholics and goad them into rising into Marxist rebellions in class warfare.
That is what this is...and it is the version accepted and practised by black radicals in this country and it is intent on changing this country into a socio-marxist state where wealth, opportunity, and position are not earned by individuals, but instead are handed out by the state...and in this case they simply want to be the ones in control of redistributing it all for their purposes and what they call "their" people.
It is time that this ideology is recognized for what it is and exposed accordingly.
Nicely done, Jeff!

Obama's Church: Gospel of Hate

In March of 2007, FOX News host Sean Hannity had engaged Obamas pastor in a heated interview about his Churchs teachings. For many viewers, the ensuing shouting match was their first exposure to "Black Liberation Theology"...
Like the pro-communist Liberation Theology that swept Central America in the 1980s and was repeatedly condemned by Pope John Paul II, Black Liberation Theology combines warmed-over 1960s vintage Marxism with carefully distorted biblical passages. However, in contrast to traditional Marxism, it emphasizes race rather than class. The Christian notion of "salvation" in the afterlife is superseded by "liberation" on earth, courtesy of the establishment of a socialist utopia.

Obama’s upset only because Carter excluded Hizbollah from the meeting.
When the Obama-Clinton trainwreck came to Texas, both Marxist-Socialist-Democrat candidates spent money on radio ads on conservative talk radio and for phone banks to call young Republican voters.
They wanted every vote they could get.
Of late, they had to play more to the Left wing extremists. Both candidates are having to play to the center more. Especially in light of recent gaffes and a lack of a challenge for the Republican nomination (Huckabee still had a slim chance in Texas).
He put a wreath on Arafat’s tomb. Did he put some syrup on Rachel’s pancakes?
lol
That perverted theology accounts for all the strangeness, the anger towards America, the far-left record, the obvious discomfort at acting in any way patriotic to thses United States, and all the rest that we have seen from Obama and his wife.
It explains it all...right down to the hate filled diatebes by his pastor, the endorsement of the Black Panthers and the Black Mulsim Nation of Islam.
As more and more people find out about this and see it for what it is...they will reject it. But we must get the word out.
ummm... perhaps the facts on the ground changed for BHO?... such as poll numbers?
You beat me to it.
Exactly — Snobama was happy to boast that he would eagerly meet with every terror-sponsoring America-hating leader in the world when that seemed useful for appealing to the nutty left. Now that he is facing the prospect of splintering the “Democratic coalition” he suddenly wants to posture and preen and pretend that a Hamas terrorist is so different from the Iranian sponsors of Hizbullah and many other terrorists. What an ass-clown.
Only problem is unlike slick Wille, BHO refused to condemn the public pariah 5 days prior.
He is saying this for the vote.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.
