Obama: ‘I Have Never Said I Would Negotiate with Terrorists’

Barack Obama just said in a speech being broadcast on Fox News: “I have never said I would negotiate with terrorists.”

From his official campaign web site:

Diplomacy: Obama is the only major candidate who supports tough, direct presidential diplomacy with Iran without preconditions. Now is the time to pressure Iran directly to change their troubling behavior.

It’s a simple, undeniable fact that Iran is a state sponsor of terrorism. Obama says very clearly that he’s going to negotiate with them, and somehow convince them to “change their troubling behavior.” (Good luck with that.) And yet, he stands there and denies it with a straight face.

He’s now blatantly lying, even when it’s a simple matter to fact check him. He’s getting complacent about his teflon coating.
