Hair splitting with a spin.

Obama says very clearly that he’s going to negotiate with them

Sure, but he'll do it toughly.

Don't you feel better?

Teflon can peel off.

That quote may miraculously disappear from his website today.

Actions speak louder than words. He already has been preparing negoitiations with terrorists (Hamas, FARC)

I want to know who's pulling his strings.

seems like he's always got lots of 'splainin to do....

I won't negotiate!
I plan on kissing Dinnerjacket's waffle from the start.

re: #9 little boomer

Obamessiah!

I don't think that it is teflon that The Obammessiah is coated with.

He is unelectable. In a year where the Dhimmicraps should wipe the floor with the repubs they (the Dhimmicraps) have found a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

Howz about placing his present and past statements side by side (in a non-animated version of your classic Rather killer memo comparison)? I just love watching libs make asses of themselves.

Bush hit a nerve.

That's for sure.

Off to deal with nutty client.

Democratic spinner now on Fox: Obama's gonna tell Iran, "you can't have nuclear weapons."

Oooh. That's gonna really make em quake in their robes.

Facts are incovenient.

Yesterday someone of Fox interviewed his "foreign policy expert" Susan Rice. She asked Rice three times if Obama would talk to Ahmadenijab and never got a straight yes or no. Instead, she got a blow off, none of your business answer about speaking with the correct people at the correct time with the correct preparation. In other words, Obama will talk to whomever he damned well pleases and if we question that, we are being "devisive."

Barrack Hussein Obama had best wise up to the fact that WE are interviewing him for the job. He is not interviewing US.

Sound kind of similar to Kerry's: I voted for it, before I voted against it. Ahh - video tape. :)

"I want a civil campaign, but if these lying, fear-mongering, selfish, hypocritical Republicans ..."

Hey- great idea. Works for me. OK we can all go home.

So, diplomacy without negotiation.
What is that?

“I have never said I would negotiate with terrorists.”

UH- ok-aaay.... But you do understand their endorsement.

I won't negotiate with terrorists
I'll only meet them without preconditions,
And then I'll barely slap them on the wrists
Because deep down I approve of their mission.

Truth always does that. That's why they want to bring back the fairness doctrine.

Well Obama is quite the politician, how far could public opinion push him?

Very far as long as he is still a candidate, it seems.

Of course he's lying.

This is a play to solidify the hard left and attempt to leverage the low approval ratings of Bush by playing out the 'insult' and linking it to McCain.

Talking heads will spout off about this, the Dem leaders will spout off about this and embrace the same failed strategies that directly led to 9/11, and the majority of American people will look at all of this and do the same thing they did in 2004....decide to err on the side of obtaining peace via strength not via 'talks' or 'economic sanctions' that do not deter fanatical police states.

I'll have to watch it again, approximately 4 lies in ten minutes.

re: #21 mean Gene

The hit dog yelps first. He's been saying since the beginning that he'll talk with anyone who has a beef with the US. He's even hinted that because of his heritage, terrorists will be willing to talk to him. And Hamas jumped on that bus with him. I guess he figures we forgot all that stuff that he said before Wright.

re: #30 Athos

adding the /sarc tag.

Obama and his handlers know his policies are a non-starter with mainstream America. That's why its to their advantage to keep things as vague as possible. Although with his willingness to openly lie, and the cover that gets from the MSM, why bother. Answer the questions then deny when called on the carpet for the wrong answers.

Wow. He's not even subtle about his lying.
Wonder if he even knows what the truth is anymore since he lies freely and often.......

Obama to Ahmadinejad,

"Mahmoud, you had me at apostate!"

With respect to the Obamaloon being "unlectable", let us not forget that McKennedy is doing a fine job of alienating his entire base. I personally think he's only slightly less dense than Obama. Folks, our potential nominee is a dork. Perhaps the Repubs can regain some semblance of sense and nominate someone that we can support.

It will be a vast, bitter storm of resentment that will roar across the whole nation when the millions who are now bedazzled by Obama's hypnotic spell finally snap out of it.

Obama must really really hate the internet. Sucks to be him.

The MSM is dead it just doesn't know it yet, give it about 5-10 more years to go *poof*

Obama makes Kerry's flip flops look like steely resolve.

re: #37 Dianna

Why is this man a candidate?

This is the same party that has pressed McGovern, Carter, Dukakis, AlBore, and Kerry as 'viable' candidates. Competence has less to do with it as loyalty towards the ideology.

“I have never said I would negotiate with terrorists.”

uhh.. Yes, you did Mr. Obama. A number of times in the debates with your democratic opponents. Now shut up and eat your waffle.

re: #37 Dianna

Why is this man a candidate?

HOPE ,,,, CHANGE ,,,,,, (never underestimate the stupidity of people sheeple in large numbers)

Of course he can say this, because he would grovel before Iran's "democratically-elected leaders" and "members of the global community" who "can help stabilize tensions in this troubled part of the world." In his conrete-bound mentality, he would surrender to men with suits and robes and Members Club Only jackets, not men with masks and guns, so how can that be "negotiating with terrorists"?

Once again Obama's position is being distorted.

How is it being distorted?

I have no idea.

But I do KNOW that Democrats and the media will tell me that Obama's position is being distorted.

Britt Hume has been hammering him on this, quite effectively.

Sic Michelle on'em!

tough, direct presidential diplomacy

He's going to send them a Strongly Worded Letter himself, instead of having the UN do it.

What we need is tough, direct, presidential whoop-ass.

re: #37 Dianna

Why is this man a candidate?

Because Soros has spent a whole lot of money to make him one

Don't forget, die-hard Obamamites don't care what he says.

And really, who will hold him to his contradiction? Americans don't care and the rest of the world is rooting for Iran.

Hey Obama, negotiate this:

How Iran Is Killing U.S. Troops in Iraq

This is what I really meant, sweetie.

When Obama eventually secures the Democratic Nomination, I think his handlers are gonna regret this little temper tantrum of his. When he has to to that little dance back to the center and stop catering to his loonie left base, he will regret picking this fight.

re: #15 Charles

Democratic spinner now on Fox: Obama's gonna tell Iran, "you can't have nuclear weapons."

Yeah, or what, Barack...are you going to talk them to death?

he is so used to being coddled by the msm he really thinks he can say and do anything w/ impunity.
all his lies and missteps will come in handy soon. let him keep making an ass of himself.
eventually the pile will be so big, that the stink will have to be acknowledged and seen for what it is. a testament to his foul character.

"you can't have nuclear weapons."

Oh! We can't, we're sorry. No problem. We understand now, now that you're saying it.

I saw his chief foreign policy analyst on Fox yesterday. Typical liberal dimwit, who believes that Muslims want peace, instead of a piece of her. What is the point of talking if you are not listening? There is no shortage of word emenating from the Mid East.

I was just sitting in a hotel club lounge listening to him and I had the exact same thought. He contradicted himself within his speech. One moment he was talking about engaging them with "tough diplomacy" and the next moment he was saying that Bush and McCain were lying about his willingness to talk to terrorists.

But the thing that really got to me were the two grinning sycophants nodding and grinning with vapid delight at everything that he said.

Please, someone explain to me how educated people can be so stupid.

Hope, change, the media's infatuation with Marxists, sufficient quanities of melanin, and the left's desperate desire to show the world they're not racist.

re: #6 The Other Les

I want to know who's pulling his strings.

Oh, I quite agree. I know he comes from the Cook County political machine, where he earned his street cred sitting in a pew listening to Reverunatthemouth. But it would be interesting to know who is behind this Manchurian candidate. Because it just can't be dumb luck that got him to where he is, this close >< to becoming the President. But if it is dumb luck, then having a media carry water for him sure is a boost to his hopes. I never thought I would see our media turn into Pravda, but they have. With Obama, the party line consensus from the media is whatever he says today. The media doesn't even pretend to have a memory hole, as that would require an aspect of long term memory. I find the whole Obamasiah obamanation disconcertingly stupefying in a scary way.

re: #17 galloping granny

Susan Rice - one of his anti-Israel foreign policy advisors. Would not be surprised if she was already talking with Iran the way another of Obama's anti-Israel advisors Malley was with Hamas.

Obama needs to be directly called out and told that when you are negotiating with Iran you ARE negotiating with the very people who support and train Hamas and Hezbollah. McCain needs to hammer that point.

He also needs to call out the lie that any prior U.S. President sat with enemy leaders without some preconditions. Never happened.

re: #70 brainwizard73

Yeah, or what, Barack...are you going to talk them to death?

He will walk across the Persian Gulf and tell them that he is the hidden imam.

He isn't lying.

He doesn't consider Hamas and Hezbollah to be terrorists. Therefore, he will negotiate with them.

It's all in the semantics.

They haven't actually been educated. They've been indoctrinated. Major difference.

He never said it. And besides, it's not terrorism, it's resistance. Legitimate national resistance to oppression and stuff like that. And you're a racist for even bringing it up! Remember, folks: it all depends on what the meaning of "is" is!

On a more serious note, I guess this means that it no longer matters what Ears says any more; the voters' choices are more or less fixed, and the voters themselves are off to pay attention to something else. We remain appalled at Ears, his supporters have made up their minds, and it will take something truly amazing for the vote to shift much in either direction.

Foreign policy lesson for Obama:

Syria & Iran use terrorism as a tool of their foreign policy.
Syria & Iran arm terrorists.
Syria & Iran train terrorists.
Syria & Iran are terrorists.
Negotiating with Syria & Iran is negotiating with terrorists.

Got it, waffle man?

re: #67 Kenneth

Hey Obama, negotiate this:

How Iran Is Killing U.S. Troops in Iraq

Don't worry, the very second that he takes his hand off the koran at the swearing in our troops will be heading home - or surrendering to Iran.

re: #74 SeattleSE

Please, someone explain to me how educated people can be so stupid.

Education has devolved into a process of removing the sense you were born with--and the ability to believe the evidence of your own eyes and ears--and replacing these things with a Moebius strip of propaganda.

Well, you see Negotiating & Diplomacy are not the same thing.
The differnce is, ah, um er. Give me the weekened, I'll get back to you.

It's hard to be "tough" when you've already ceded so much ground by being "direct."

And Obama couldn't even get Rev. Wright to change his mind about whether or not the government created AIDS to kill off minorities or about whether Jesus was a black Palestinian persecuted by Jews and Garlic noses...He's going to convince the sunked eyed money to swear off the 12th Imam?

The primaries are over.

Time to start repositioning towards the center.

This is only the beginning.

He won't negotiate with "terrorists".

But he will meet with no preconditions the people that arm terrorists, fund terrorists, provide havens for terrorists, train terrorists, educate terrorists, feed terrorists, transport terrorists, pay terrorists' families when they die in attacks on American soldiers or innocent non-coms in Israel or Iraq.

No, Barack, you don't negotiate with "terrorists".

Barack better bite the head off of a gizzly bear on Hannity and Colmes tonight if he wants to have any semblance of fortitude.

Not just Soros. A lot of America's enemies have done so. There is a man by the name of Nadhmi Auchi who has been backing Obama for quite some time now. Auchi bankrolled Saddam's weaponry, and is an Iraqi-born British billionarie who helped Saddam with an assassination attempt on the Iraqi president about 40 years ago. In addition, Auchi is well connected to Rezko. Yes, that Tony Rezko who is on trial right now.

Actually, I think he is so over his head that he has developed a faux intellectual over-response to any perceived critism. Sort of like the Clinton war room. And when he has the nomination wrapped up we will really see this over-reaction in torrents.

re: #84 Kalak

He isn't lying.

It's all in the semantics.

Adding to that thought, all Obama has to do is signal that there are no terrorists and that the term is inherently pejorative and dehumanizing - straight from dKos.

Then he can negotiate with anyone and anything and never encounter a terrorist.

Does anyone think the speech Bush gave could have been taylored with an intent to draw such responses for all the players who have opened their mouths? Not the only reason for the speech, but certainly recognizing this is a political weak spot for the Dems, and exploiting it?

Pelosi who met with Assad, etc?

It sets the stage for their words to stand against their actions.

Iran is the crux of a lot a problems.
Hamas.
Hezballah.
Lebanon.
Iraq Insurgency.
Syria.
Source of Hard currency to NorKo.

It is beyond naive to think talking with acolytes of the 12^th Imam will result in anything other than emboldening them.
It's beyond dangerous.

IT'S SUICIDAL!

Osbama isn't lying, he doesn't believe Dinnerjacket is a "terrorist."

Obama has vowed to pull out nearly all US troops within 6 months. He has vowed to scrap missile defense. He has signaled he will abandon Israel. He has openly stated he will concede Iraq to Iran.

By the time Obama actually meets with the Iranians, he will have given away all his sticks and his carrots. What's left to negotiate?

Obama continues to demonstrate a lack of character that typifies most Democratic politicians for the last 30 years.

Obama has the magic wand for everything. One waive, and all your troubles go away. Peace, brother, and may the force be with you.

"If George Bush and John McCain want to have a debate..."
