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!

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.

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. :)

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

re: #64 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

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.

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.

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..."

I don't oppose all wars. What I am opposed to is a dumb war. What I am opposed to is a rash war. What I am opposed to is the cynical attempt by Richard Perle and Paul Wolfowitz and other armchair, weekend warriors in this administration to shove their own ideological agendas down our throats, irrespective of the costs in lives lost and in hardships borne.

What I am opposed to is the attempt by political hacks like Karl Rove to distract us from a rise in the uninsured, a rise in the poverty rate, a drop in the median income, to distract us from corporate scandals and a stock market that has just gone through the worst month since the Great Depression.

That's what I'm opposed to. A dumb war. A rash war. A war based not on reason but on passion, not on principle but on politics.

Ah, thanks for the link. I'd only looked at Barr's own policy comments on his website, and I liked his small government (but of course, I've fallen for that line before).

Guess I'm down to writing-in Mickey Mouse. Or Pat Paulsen, even.

re: #130 really grumpy big dog Johnson

That has been the one theme during his time in office that keeps intriguing me.

Albeit, I can't recall specific events, it seems he has dealt a couple of trump cards when it was least expected.

A smart person is good, a smarter person surrounds themselves with smart people.

From what Charles posted up thread about the spinner speaking the language of West Virginian type of discourse, that makes me think there is some internal polling that says this is a very vulnerable area for Obama, and he is trying to make up some voting ground.

re: #141 Ojoe

Same here, it's as if they completely close their minds to anything that challenges their wishes or preconceptions. They literally don't want to hear it.

Silly bitter people, he will have unconditional diplomacy with Iran, not negotiate with terrorists. It is all in the labels.

When did skinny guys with big ears become sexy? I missed the memo on that one.

Not too sure, but it just goes to show you that personality (either real or percieved) matters...say what you will about Barack Obama, he has that lounge lizard smoothness when he is speaking in prepared remarks that makes some women, apparently, just go crazy.

I am praying for the day that some really overweight-Howard-Taft-esqe guy runs for office...so I can ride that wave.

Big ears means he is a good listener. And skinny means he is unlikely to eat all the chocolate, leaving more for her.

re: #135 JHW

You know, what is not to like about him looking out for the little guy when he can tap some financial support from overseas, and buy some land he needs next to his house.

I'm sure that is coming my way if I just vote for him.

re: #37 Dianna

The blame falls squarely on Jeri Ryan.

re: #135 JHW

I'm starting to see a lot of Obama yard signs popping up, I asked a few of my neighbors what they liked about him. The consensus seems to be, "He's a Democrat, he cares about the little guy, he's against the rich". Zero knowledge of his statements, policy pronouncements or connections. Sometimes I really worry about the complete clueless willful ignorance of a very large segment of our voting population.

Same ol' Dem lie for decades. The GOP is against the poor, blacks, women, Jews, students, the environment, etc.

On the other hand, the Dems must love the poor more, because they support policies guaranteed to create the maximum number of poor. What you love, you want more of, right?

re: #147 brainwizard73

Call me a hater or what. But I have never considered BO a great orator. He pauses and uses so many "uh's" or "ummm's" that it drives me crazy. Perhaps I am too impatient for his slow, stuttering style. At his rallies I am amazed by how little he says and by how fired up the people get. Frankly that is very disturbing. Plus, he never seems to answer a question directly. When a politician choose to dodge then I consider them irrelevant.

re: #160 Roger

Indeed.

Rookie move.

It will be difficult to illustrate Obama's stupidity on this issue when the Bush Administration has been equally stupid in negotiating with Kaddafi.

SENIOR US officials have acknowledged that the move to restore full diplomatic ties with Libya after more than 25 years is aimed in part at influencing Iran to give up uranium enrichment.

State Department officials said the message to Iran was that it would reap concrete benefits if it did likewise — although that prospect now seems remote.

The Bush Administration has re-established full diplomatic relations with Libya, rewarding a long-time foe for giving up terrorism and unconventional weapons. Completing a reversal that began three years ago, Administration officials said they would open an embassy in Tripoli and drop Libya from their list of nations that sponsor terrorism.

Kaddafi who gave up precisely... nothing.

Toss a rock over a fence, and only the hit dog yelps.
Time honored Southern sayin', even if some talking head did use it this morning.... and it applies here.

I don't pretend to understand the appeal, either. Maybe it's just the media creating the hoopla...and a bunch of under-hydrated female supporters.

I have noticed of late that ANY criticism of Obama on any grounds - his lack of experience, his associations, his own words - is instantly labeled as "devisive" and "not conducive to his goal of uniting this great country." Like we have no right at all to question him or judge his fitness for office.

re: #173 galloping granny

Agreed... and how scary is that?

He lies with the expertise of a Clinton and those lining up for their cup of koolaide take it as they would a gospel from their messiah or savior. Fortunately I don't drink the koolaid, I the one who pee'd in it!

re: #174 ethanxxx

I seriously - and I am not kidding in the least - wonder why on earth they are bothering to even hold an election this time around, since the outcome seems to have already been decided without any input from the American public.

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.

Uhh... just how do you propose a scenario for that, save, heaven forbid, McCain becoming incapacitated?

I have said it before. This guy is so freaking full of shit. Nobody calls him on his waffling or mis-statements. As Hannity and Newt said, they (Obama and the Left) got soooo upset because they know that this is a weakness. Wait for the MSM's response, "Obama's speech was amazing...he changed the world and sent terrorists running...then a tingle went up my leg".

FNC now showing Barry addressing more questions on this.

Someone needs to remind Barry about the first rule when one is in a hole.

I'm starting to actually LIKE McCain more....

I figure that the citizens of AZ keep electing him as their senator, so he must be doing something right.

re: #193 Athos

Is that "Rule 1 - When in a hole, stop digging" ?

I'll bet it is. I personally hope he digs that hole all the way to China. Well, maybe not China. Pakistan.

Obamas weaknesses have been covered on other threads but this is a blatant lie that can be easily proved. That is stupid.
The whole of his attempt to be elected is based on image and no substance.
What I really like about Americans is their love of country, their patriotism. Hands on heart, lapel pins, flags flying from houses, the hoopla at baseball games where I've seen you supporting your troops etc. I don't see that in Obama at all, not just the outward signs but my sense of him (and the WAB). They don't like America, not the one that exists, so what sort of America would be acceptable to them. What would they change (no doubt for the worse).
He associates with people who are flat out racists and bombers, Wright and NOI types. He has attended a *church* that is no sort of Christian that I can understand and listened to preaching that is repellant and for 20 years did not see anything wrong in it. He only changed his mind when he saw that people objected and it might hurt his campaign. It doesn't mean he still doesn't believe it. His snide remarks about TWP show it. That is disturbing.

He seems to think that he will be good for America. He won't.
Just look at the amount of damage to the social fabric of America he has already wrought. He is the one who has flung racism into the arena and look what it has produced. It's ugly.
He would have no problems negotiating with terrorists because they are possibly more familiar to him given his associates. He is not capable of dealing with them, they will run rings round him and you will become vulnerable as a result. They will see him as one of them but weak. Imagine Obama announcing that he will go to Tehran and talk to Dinnerjacket and all problems will be solved. Do you want to imagine the warm and highly friendly greetings for the TV cameras. What will follow? Obama coming home and announcing *peace in our time* or high level coverage from the Iranian propoganda machine showing how naive and stupid he is followed by a dramatic high profile public trial for Crimes against the World. It doesn't bear thinking about.
Obama is dangerous.

Uh ... Mr. Obama, sir?

Uh, not quite sure if you know this ... but ...

IRAN IS A STATE SPONSOR OF TERROR, AND ARE LED BY TERRORIST MULLAHS AND A PRESIDENT WHOM SEVERAL OF THE HOSTAGES IN TEHRAN REPORT WAS IN THE GROUP THAT VIOLATED INTERNATIONAL LAW AND GRABBED THEM.

Yes Mr. Obama, this is the case.

Yes, Mr. Obama, they are terrorists.

Yes, Mr. Obama, you did state, several times, in no uncertain terms that

YOU WOULD INDEED NEGOTIATE DIRECTLY WITH THE TERRORISTS IN IRAN

I think at this point what we have is less of a credibility problem, and more of a basic comprehension problem. If you don't grasp that they are terrorists ... well ... what exactly can we do? You can disagree that they are, certainly.

IT DOESN"T CHANGE THE FACT THAT THEY ARE.

Really.

You can put lipstick on that pig Mr. Obama, but it still doesn't change its fundamental porcine essence.

The only logical conclusion is this: Obama does not in fact believe that Iran is a state-sponsor of terrorism. It follows therefore that he believes Iran is justified in thumbing its nose at the United States and the world community on the subject of nuclear capability, not to mention arms proliferation in Iraq and continued support of anti-government forces there.

Think for a moment: when's the last time you heard a Presidential Candidate, one who's apparently going to be the nominee of one of the major parties, take this stance? This is new territory folks.

I don't care about Obama's ears, his skin colour, or what he wore in a photo. I do care about his beliefs and policy positions.

Obama has yet to address alleged ties with FARC. Hugo Chavez is no friend of the United States either, and he's been linked to FARC. Does anyone doubt Obama would be willing to have "talks without preconditions" with Hugo as well?

1) when a lib or dem (same thing really) says something is divisive or unfair, you can be sure that something is true.

2) I am amazed that is still up on B. Hussein's website. Usually LGF has enough of a profile for webmasters to be a little quicker covering for their candidate.

He’s getting complacent about his teflon coating.

I think he's just checking it for holes.

Maybe Obama wasn't there when he said it.
