I'm deeply confused by his strategy.
First off his wife sez that she was never proud of the USA as an
adult.And she was reading is from a speech.How on earth does that pass
muster?
Ok a mistake, who doesnt make em?
But the nomination goes like it always does.
Repubs piss off the base by naming a middle of the roader so he doesnt
even need drift to the center.
But the dems always put up guys who please their base.The liberals.And
they all try and outliberal each other to get the nomination(ok
hillary figured she so had it she started running for the general
before she got the nomination pissing off her base, who were too dumb
to see shes a lib pretending to be drifting right to win the reagen
democrats...so they dumb her for the guy preaching what they wanna
here.
So now obama is gonna run to the center to have a chance.
So whats he do?
He sez he'll sit down with the iranian nutcases, downplays the danger
of muslim extremism, and now almost unbelievably he comes out and rips
americans for driving their SUV's and eating too much.
I live surounded by democrats, not radicals, but Im in Massachusetts
where saying you are a republican is shocking to people, more than
saying your in NAMBLA...I mean I would imagine, im not in nambla.
But I diggress.
These people pure demslike him, but he also is worrying even them by
saying things only 20 year old sluts from amherst say...ripping
people...ripping VOTERS for driving SUVs.
Now his base goes wild.Who gives a shit? He has them.He had em a year
ago by being black.
Now we see this skinny effeminate black guy in asuit telling reagan
democrats this gooky liberal crap.People LIKE THEIR SUV's.They dont
wanna give em up, and they dont wanna be insulted.
Moost people LIKE THEIR THERMOSTATS AT 72.
Now they are ripped by barrack for it.He sees them as a failure.Only
maybe 10% OF EVEN DEM VOTERS ARE WILLING TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE FOR A
POINT.
And being cold sucks.
Question isnt about the substance of his charges, i couldnt care less.
Question is.
Is he some kinda moron? Doesnt he know hes marginalizing himself in
aligning with lesbians and "activists"?
He shoudl be talking about baseball, about how much he loves
america.He should come out against gay marriage.Yeah, I know hes for
it.
But anyone for it will vote for him anyways.You just lie for now for
the greater good.Hes a pol in some ways, sure he lies here and there
now he puts on a flag pin in a move so disingenuous that its pretty
funny.But you gotts do it.
Im left to conclude that he cant be very smart.He must just be so
narcisistis that he either has no advisors speaking freely to him, or
he just thinks he knows better.
He thinks there are 57 states.Surely he MUST know he's no genius.At
least he klnows now.But here he is debating john mccain a flippin war
hero on international affairs.
He must stay thefuck away from that.Dems scare voters when they talk
of national defense.They always have.ANY ADVISOR WOULD SAY DO NOW
DEBATE A WAR HERO ON THIS SHIT.You jst bring attention to a subject
that cant help him.His middle name is hussein for godssakes yet he
keeps bringing up the middleeast.The average voter is dumb as
shit..but he will be like "gee...do i vote for the war hero that looks
like my dad who says he loves the usa and will defend it to death..or
the geeky looking black dude hanging out with terrorists who i once
heard may actually be a muslim and who keeps insulting me"
barrack.DO NOT INSULT PEOPLE YOU WANT TO GET VOTES FROM.I learned this
in 7th grade civics.He may actually be dumber than bush.

Actually if you check his record he's always done a pretty good job of

That's because there are too many Americans who mistakenly believe they

The fact that McCain is a war hero does not mean he knows anything about
national defense. Quite the contrary, he shares Bush's views and you can
very well see where that's got us.

: shit..but he will be like "gee...do i vote for the war hero that looks


: like my dad who says he loves the usa and will defend it to death..or
: the geeky looking black dude hanging out with terrorists who i once
: heard may actually be a muslim and who keeps insulting me"

: barrack.

Probably if this is the way you look at the world you ought not to be
voting at all. Just stay home and play video games or something
innocuous. McCain is just like Bush, a friendly guy who loves the USA and
has wants to defend it and has driven it into the dirt. Is that who you
wish to vote for?

If you avoid voting for Barack because he's "geeky looking" then you're
advocating an ad hominem attack. If you think he's "hanging out with
terrorists" then you're simply lying. If you think he's insulting you
then you're either misinformed or you need insulting.

And he shortly will. He'll go eat polish sausage, he'll gobble pizza,
and he'll go eat kosher knishes at the old folks homes or some reform
synogogues, and play like he's the man of reason.

Even as he whines, about his wife getting attacked by repubs, even as he
whined about Bush's speech in Israel, as if, as if, it was attacking him.
The media totally ignored that speech, and simply used it to stir the
pot that Obama desperately used to make it seem he was the target.
Actually he wasn't. There was a guy named Carter who just went and
annointed hamas'a and hizbollah's assholes, and that was the specific
target. And Obama couldn't say what he knew, because they are using the
only strategy that they have been trying to use for 4 yrs- bush is evil-
anyone but bush, anything but bush, and we'll talk to anyone, because
we're the UNITERS.

There are 57 states in the Organizatio of Islamic States... that was his

All he'll do is say the war is a total waste and McCain supported it and
supports it. The mantra.

Because he, they believe in appeasement. It was de rigeur prior to WW
II, and this type of thinking always drags people into great wars. And
all the terrorists want him. He's the choice. They know exactly what
he'll bring them.

Yes, she did. And wait till they release her anti whitey speech that she
made in that church. They're saving that one for later. But the fact
that she rode the coattails of affirmative action, ahead of others more
deserving and whined about how she's never been proud of the country
till now, is a joke. Upon her. And of coure, you have to say.... it
never really happened. It did. Everyone knows this. And what it meant.

This is idiocy. Obama has no voting record of any merit. Period. He was
a chicago fixer, who has no record worthy of a presidential run.

It's never ever a good strategy. It's a strategy that brings great wars.
It's always a leftist answer that capitalist states should never fire
upon any hitlers, stalin's, or anyone, but rather- understand- how they
brought this on themselves.

We've never gotten anywhere with such a thinking.

Oh... he's currently being raked by all, by all, for his comments on the
'legitimate' wants of hezbollah, hamas'. By all except the leftists,
who of course, don't mind the extermination of the US, of Israel, or
such chartered and demonstrated goals and history.

There's nothing wrong with stepping a little in your opponent's direction
in order to coax them into yours. As a martial artist you should know
that. Obama is not advocating caving in to every one of Iran's demands,
just a simple "We'll talk."

we are dragged into great wars by the people who own the factories
that make munitions and tanks. The wealthy want war because they
profit enormously from it, and the last thing they care about is a
bunch of poor people losing their homes and their lives.

Obama's unique appeasement style

By Caroline B. Glick


http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | Spin doctors were relabeled
"strategists" in the early 1990s. And as JWR contributor Mark Steyn
wrote last week, "Increasingly, the Western world has attitudes rather
than policies."

The latest attitude to be flouted as policy is indignation.
Specifically, Democratic Presidential hopeful Senator Barack Obama's
furious indignation at President George W. Bush's address before the
Knesset last week where he celebrated Israel's 60th anniversary and
extolled the US's alliance with Israel. Beyond praising the Jewish
people's 4,000 year-old devotion to the Land of Israel and to liberty,
Bush used the speech to warn against those who think that Iran and its
terror proxies can simply be wished away through appeasement.

As the president put it, "Some seem to believe that we should negotiate
with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will
persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have heard this foolish
delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American
senator declared: "Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this
might have been avoided. We have an obligation to call this what it is -
the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited
by history."

To Israeli ears, Bush's words were uncontroversial. Israel is beset by
enemies who daily call for its physical annihilation and while doing so,
build and support terror forces who attack Israel. For most Israelis,
the notion that these enemies can be appeased is absurd and deeply
offensive.

The only strong reaction that Bush's remarks provoked in Israel was
relief. In spite of the Bush administration's own participation in the
six-party talks with North Korea, its support for the EU-3's feckless
discussions with the mullahs, its paralysis in the face of Hizbullah's
takeover of Lebanon, and its support for the establishment of a
Palestinian state run by Fatah terrorists dedicated to Israel's
destruction, at the very least, standing before the Knesset, Bush
effectively pledged not to allow Iran to acquire the means to conduct a
new Holocaust.

From an Israeli vantage point then, it was shocking to see that
immediately after Bush stepped down from the rostrum, Obama and his
Democratic supporters began pillorying him for his remarks. Most
distressing is what Obama's reaction said about the Democratic
presidential hopeful.


OBAMA'S RESPONSE to Bush's speech was an effective acknowledgement that
appeasing Iran and other terror sponsors is a defining feature of his
campaign and of his political persona. As far as he is concerned, an
attack against appeasement is an attack against Obama.

Obama and his supporters argue that seeking to ease Iranian belligerence
by conducting negotiations and offering military, technological,
military and financial concessions to the likes of Iranian President
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who refers to Israel as pestilence, daily threatens
the Jewish state with destruction, and calls for the eradication of the
US while claiming to be divinely instructed by a seven-year-old imam who
went missing 1100 years ago is not appeasement. Indeed, Obama claims
that conducting direct face-to-face negotiations with the likes of
Ahmadinejad is the right way to be "tough."

But is this true? Obama recalls that US presidents have often conducted
negotiations with their country's enemies and done so to the US's
advantage. And this is true enough. President John F. Kennedy
essentially appeased the Soviet Union during the 1962 Cuban missile
crisis when he offered to remove US nuclear warheads from Turkey in
exchange for the removal of Soviet nuclear missiles from Cuba.

But there are many differences between what Kennedy did and what Obama
is proposing. Kennedy's offer to Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev was
made secretly. And the terms of the deal stipulated that if its
existence was revealed, the US offer would be cancelled. More
importantly, Khrushchev was open to a deal and was ready to give up the
Cuban nuclear program. And - most importantly of all - Kennedy deployed
military forces and went to the brink of war to make the alternatives to
negotiation credible.

Obama has repeatedly stated that unlike Kennedy, if he is elected
president, he will not openly threaten war while being open to private
talks. Instead, Obama intends to surrender the war option while
conducting direct, public negotiations with the mullahs. So from the
very beginning, he wants to undermine US credibility while giving
Ahmadinejad and his murderous ilk the legitimacy that Kennedy refused to
give Khrushchev.

Far from exerting force to strengthen his diplomatic position, Obama has
pledged to withdraw US forces from Iraq where they are fighting Iranian
proxies, cut military spending and shrink the size of the US nuclear
arsenal.


SINCE THE definition of appeasement is to reward others for their bad
behavior, and since the US has refused for 29 years to reward the
Iranians for their bad behavior by having presidential summits with
Iranian leaders, Obama's pledge represents a massive act of appeasement.
And since it is Iran's illicit nuclear weapons program that would bring
a President Barack Obama to the table, his policy would invite nuclear
blackmail by other countries by signaling to them that the US rewards
nuclear proliferators.

But even if Obama and his supporters were right and negotiating with the
ayatollahs was not by its nature an act of appeasement, the question
remains whether it would be possible to reach a deal with them that
would not endanger US interests or US allies a la Neville Chamberlain at
Munich.

Since the EU-3 began negotiating with the Iranians four years ago, the
Iranians have made clear at every opportunity that while they welcome
negotiations, they will never give up their nuclear program. Over the
weekend, Iran's supreme leader Ali Khamenei again repeated that there is
no deal that anyone can offer Iran that would move the regime to give up
its nuclear aspirations and nascent arsenal. So there is no deal to be had.

Iran's support for terrorism and its nuclear aspirations make
confrontation with the US inevitable. Since there is no way that in the
midst of presidential negotiations the US would confront Iran, by
pushing for such summitry, Obama is conceding to Iran the US's right to
choose when and how the confrontation will begin.


IN MANY ways, Obama and his allies call to mind the influential American
newspaperman H.L. Mencken. In the 1920s and early 1930s, Mencken was the
most influential writer in the US. He was an anti-Christian and
anti-Semitic agnostic, a supporter of Germany during World War I, and a
fierce opponent of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal. He
also opposed American participation in World War II.

In his biography of Mencken, The Skeptic: A Life of H.L. Mencken, Terry
Teachout argues that the reason Mencken did not think it was worth
fighting Hitler's Germany was because Mencken simply couldn't accept the
existence of evil. He could see no moral distinction between Roosevelt,
who he despised, and Adolf Hitler who he considered "a boob."

There are strong echoes of Mencken's moral blindness to Hitler's evil in
the contemporary Left's refusal to understand the nature of the threat
posed by Iran and its terror proxies. And Bush made this clear in his
speech to the Knesset when he said, "There are good and decent people
who cannot fathom the darkness in these men and try to explain away
their words. It's natural, but it is deadly wrong."

Obama's supporters seek to silence these echoes by pointing to Obama's
life story as Obama told it in his two autobiographies, Dreams From my
Father and The Audacity of Hope. His supporters‚ argue that since his
life story is unique, his decision to appease the Iranians is uniquely
wise. Yet the most interesting aspect of his life story is how little is
actually known about it.

As the New York Times noted in an article Sunday about Obama's career as
an autobiographer, "In the introduction [of Dreams from my Father], Mr.
Obama acknowledged his use of pseudonyms, composite characters,
approximated dialogue and events out of chronological order."

That is, the man who is supposedly uniquely qualified to appease,
adopted an attitude of indignation at Bush's condemnation of those who
seek to cut deals with evil men, is also rather cavalier about facts.
Justifying Obama's fast and loose treatment of the truth about his past,
his editor Deborah Baker explained that Obama's attitude was more
important than the facts or, in her words, "The fact is, it all had a
sort of larger truth going on that you couldn't make up."


LIKE HIS life story, Obama's policies are not based on facts, but on his
attitude. And his attitude, like Mencken's in the 1930s, is based on a
naïve and arrogant belief that the worst thing that can happen is to
have someone who talks about evil in the White House.

Peter Osnos, Obama's former publisher told the Times that Obama's
meteoric rise to the pinnacle of politics is due in large part to his
gift as a storyteller. In his words, "It's almost all based on these two
books, two books not based on a job of prodigious research or risking
one's life as a reporter in Iraq. He has written about himself. Being
able to take your own life story and turn it into this incredibly
lucrative franchise, it's a stunning fact."

Indeed, it is stunning. And frightening. It says that in a world in
which evil men are combining and preparing for war and genocide, good
men are preparing for pleasant chitchat with their foes because they
have come to prefer attitude to substance. It is a world in which
indignation can be summoned as readily (and perhaps more easily) for
partisan political attacks as for delusional dictators‚ open preparation
for genocide. And it is a world in which it is more important to discuss
"healing" emotional wounds than devising policies capable of coping with
an ever-more-dangerous international coalition of murderers.

You care nothing about people, or little people, or poor people, so
you're disqualified from making generalizations that fly in the face of
recorded history, except of course, the marxist dumbo one, you just
pulled out.

Now, that repost of the quote is far more insightful than the seriously
inane interpretation of 'stepping in your opponents direction in order
to coax them to yours.' You see, in a real fight, with real killers,
semantics is historically drivel, to avoid dealing with reality. Reality.

You should know that.

Look at his voting record. It is ultra liberal. Now how is someone who is

McCain knows quite a bit about national defense. He knows enough not to say

You mean he doesnt think we should pull out of Iraq. The question is what
are the consequences if we do. No one knows. It is also interesting that the
Democrats dont want to pull out of Afghanistan.

Youre just gonna hafta get over all this shit.

McDain hasn't a chance in hell.

Hitlery is throwing everything she has at Oblama now...there's not
going to be much to unearth come general election time. McCrook on
the other hand...they haven't even scratched the surface of the
affairs, the cronies, the outright fraud and corruption of this man.
What about his fuckin immigration policy, his 100 year war?

He's further out of step with "mainstream" America, or what you think
it is, than even Oblama is.

Nevermind that by November, the economy will be in shambles, the War
still won't be won, and Busch will still be there to run against.

There is no way in hell the GOP wins. They will suffer some of the
worst defeats in modern history and at this point, hard to believe,
but they risk losing viability as a party. They went from clearly
dominant to also-rans in 14 years of Busch and more Busch.

the coming economic storm...the people will believe anything anyone

California is setting up parking lots for people to sleep in their

You continue to act as if it MATTERS who is President. You should
really be wishing for Oblama to win because he will take the fall for
the worst economic times in history. What is coming is a lot bigger
than all this stupid bullshit that these politicians talk about.
Reality is knocking on the door and is about to break it down and go

au contraire, monsewer...... you see. Nasrallah has stated point blank,

That's its a good idea to have all the jews go to Israel, that way Islam

The question is too you sir. Do you know what a meritorious voting

Libya is a poor destitute child, compared to Iran. You do know that Iran
got it's name from the 1939 admiration of the aryans... and changed
their names to Iran, which is aryan in farsi. But that is just part of
the story. The weeny roast of Libya, is just another muslim run over
desert land, whereas persia, is another story indeed. And for you to run
them together is purely the sign that you never ever read a history book
about either nation.

Yes... too true. And when a man says you are destined to die, to fall
upon your own death as the predicted resolve of an 11 yr old reborn
imam, well.... you see, his hanging gays year in and year out, his
hanging of bajai's and any other groups of muslim that 'disapprove' and

'infidels' constitutes, well, I guess you need it spelled out for you...

Oh... I suspect that the 100,000 long rants for the destruction and
genicide of a people, and of the submission of the word, constitues a
'legitimate want, to such as you. Since you annoint anyone who is not a
captitalist deserving such annointing. even if they slaughter gays,
women, each other, and want the submission of the entire world.

your's is certainly an eye openning world view.
I mean, since my world view does not in any way condone, suggest,
admire, want or claim the need to submit the world, or slaughter others.

Of course, yours does, and your allies did, and have and do, and will....

your's is certainly an eye opening world view.

No wonder you are liberal you are brain dead. I see you have never been rich
nor talked to anyone who was.

Nope it threatens their wealth.

Soros - billionaire, Kerry - billionaire, Kennedy - billionaire, Feinstein -
multi millionaire many many time over , Edwards - 8 million dollar mansion
multi millionaire - are exceedingly wealthy. Are they hawks - no. Obviously
you have elected the rich to lead you since they are all liberals. How do
you explain that?

And what are you doing about it. Have you your mountain retreat fortified
yet? Got your ammo all stocked up. Got all your preserved food up and a
water source when the pumps break down. Gonna drop an atomic on someone

Of course one can find data suggesting whatever outcome one wishes, but
that notwithstanding I would suggest that a meritorious voting record is
one in which the candidate has attempted as much as possible to cross
party lines on important issues. Of course in the current political
climate this has been difficult and for Obama being fairly new to the
scene, he's had little choice but to work within that scene. But it seems
to me (reading various newspapers and voting records) he's done as good a
job as anyone given that climate.

You're pretty fond of these ad hominem attacks. To say I ran them
together is an oversimplification of my point. Let me put it another way.
If Iran starts stockpiling nuclear (heck, conventional) weapons and points
them at Israel (or for that matter anyone within spitting distance) then I
think we're perfectly justified in giving them the old one-two. That
said, we have no evidence that they are doing such.

Yes they are causing some cross-border troubles but no more than any other
nation which has some vested concerns. Hell, far less than the US has,
historically.

And of course the country has its own internal issues. Many countries do
(China, Russia, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, more African countries than I
care to list, and so on) but we're not threatening to invade them all.

What I believe is that in Iran we've got an overzealous leader, a more
moderate populace, a hotbed of a regional problem (religion, non specific)
and the obvious conclusion. He can spout off what rubbish he wishes.
Part of the cause of his belligerence is that it's a mirror image of our
own.
