Well, Barry's right about one thing, we are at a defining point in history.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

He's out of control. He's flying to pieces right in front of our eyes.

Not currently listening to it but I'm guessing this is the start of his plan to appease everyone in the middle east and to back out of ever having to send the military into Iran.

There are no tiny threats only tiny appeasers

Because it was George Bush's fault for not backing the Shah and allowing the Islamists to take over Iran and then support global terrorism for the last 30 or so years.

Wait a sec....

Obama: Iran Threat is 'Tiny'

SHRINKAGE!

re: #4 gop_patriot

Dang it, I don't have FoxNews. :/

On this one your the lucky one.

Tax and spend, appease and surrender.

Yup, Iran is a small problem, just like a small tactical nuke only kills a small percentage of the population.

It's a ridiculous comparison.

"The Soviet Union had enough nukes to completely obliterate life on Earth. Iran, by comparison, may only make enough nukes to kill a measly ten million people. The threat is tiny by comparison! What's ten million people more or less?"

I'm sure it's only a "tiny" nuclear bomb they're trying to build.

BTW a regeme which is blowing our troops up in Iraq and funneling weapons to terrorist organizations like Hamas is not a Tiny threat.

Obama seems to have no problem wish Islamic murderous regemes or groups

This guy is nothing but Carter redux.

This man is indeed an idiot. Iran is more of a threat than the Soviets ever were. All he has to do is listen to a Sting song to know that:...the Russians love their children too......

Only threatened to wipe an entire country off the map and daily working towards nuclear weapons. What could be more harmless than that?

Obama is vying for tenure at UC Irvine.

the threat from Iran is “tiny”—and that George Bush’s policies are to blame for this tiny threat

Boilerplate leftism: The only truly evil people in this world are Republicans.

I guess when Iran nukes Israel, and Israel responds by taking out a good part of the middle east and south Russia, and then it spreads to Europe, Barry will just have to say : OOPS!

I think Obama is getting angrier and angrier...

I was reading an article about Obama telling the Republicans to lay off his wife. He was using the reasoning that Republicans was for family values and that their attacking his wife was against family values that the Republican espouse...

Huh?

He's atrocious. And the scary thing is, he may very well be our next President. It'll be like having a younger version of President Peanut Farmer in the White House.

The threat is tiny?

For a minute there I thought you was quoting Michelle.

re: #3 zombie,

Iran can only build small atomic bombs. Nothing to fear here.

Bush's fault? They've only been attacking and killing Americans since 1979.

It's because of Bush the threat is tiny. If they were allowed to do as they please with out the fear of repercussion they would likely have a full nuclear arsenal now.

Side note: Obama just said we're at a "defining moment in history." Aren't we always at a defining moment? I'd like to see someone say "right now we could do nothing, cause this moment is fairly unimportant."

Israel is a "tiny" country. Its Bush's fault for not allowing it to be merged into a "democratic one state solution".

CHANGE(is now defined).

Obama was born a Muslim, he should probably know better than to spew naive, liberal garbage out of his appeasing mouth.

There is no comparison between Iran and the former Soviet Union. The Soviets were not suicidal and they did not have a death wish. The threat of mutual destruction only works with two sides that are both civilized and have a genuine desire to avoid conflict.

Iran, which is ruled by maniacal religious, terrorist supporting fanatics is a different story. ImamadJihad, the president of Iran believes in the return of some ridiculous hidden imam, and I believe that Iran would gladly sacrifice itself to further the Islamic cause.

re: #30 Peacekeeper

Now, thats low class:)

Obama continues to talk in the past and it is driving me apeshit. It is irrelevant what MADE Iran a threat, all that is relevant is that Iran IS a threat. All that matters to him is pinning the blame on Bush for everything that is an issue, while offering zero advice on how he may approach these problems...have the moonbats degraded so much that they are willing to elect someone solely on the "Its George Bushs damn fault!" so vote for me because its HIS fault!

Japan will never attack Pearl Harbor-it would mean a war that they know they cannot win.

Let's re-word.

Because of George Bush, Iran is a tiny threat instead of a large threat.

There. Fixed it.

re: #1 Nevergiveup

This guy is dangerous.

/more dangerous than you think

Obama sees his own wife as more of a threat right now than Iran.

Anyone else notice he said "there is one war we have to win, and that is the war in Afghanistan". When it came to Iraq he said nothing other than the fact hes been opposed to it since the beginning. So therefore, because hes always been opposed to it, hes fine letting our country lose if he means he gets to be President. Good god.

Iran is a much bigger thread because of the Islamic belief behind it.

Russia at least had the 'Christian' values that prevented the war because they did not want to cause untold deaths, thus the MAD (mutual assured destruction) as a deterrence worked.

But with Islam, with destruction as a goal to read the Islamic paradise, there is no such thing as a deterrence.

The USSR had thousands of nuclear warheads; Iran has zero.

Never mind that MAD is a morally bankrupt policy.

Never mind that weapons proliferation - that is, the spread of weapons to unstable regimes - is more dangerous than a single empire possessing thousands of weapons.

Never mind that Islamic radicalism has already attacked America on a scale the USSR never dreamed of.

Never mind that Iran is currently murdering American soldiers, finding Hamas and Hezbollah, and is acting as much as a revisionist power as the USSR did in the 1950's.

You get the idea. Obama has no clue what he is talking about.

A midget with a big gun can still kill you.

Ahmedinejad is no Mikhail Gorbachov, who partnered for disarmament with Ronald Reagan.

There is no glasnost or perestroika in Iran.

JJimmy Carter is the fool who created mullacracies with nukes.

Stupid plus arrogant. A bad combination.

Folks he is an overly coddled product of the entitlement society.
You get the feeling that he has woolly caterpillars crawling around in his brain.
But, he pulled 75,000 people to a rally in Portland yesterday.
Fox reported it as the largest crowd ever at a rally. They will vote.

My standard line: Obama is full of shit...I cannot believe anyone buys this crap and nobody questions him. Oh, that's right...his views on Iran are off limits.

Lets ask Obama this, two guys move into your neighborhood. One is a former Marine who is fairly stable, has an okay job, kind of an asshole and a reasonable collection of firearms (say me for instance :)), the other is a strung out junkie, prone to screaming fits and making threats, multiple arrests and nutty as a fruitcake, who is armed with a crappy old .38.

re: #35 Kragar (Proud to be Kafir)

Completely insane comparison. When you're dealing with a theocracy who believes dying while killing the infidel grants you a get into paradise free card, one nuke is a nuke too many.

Now that I think about it, Obama has the threat assessment completely reversed.

The Soviet Union, for all its power and aggression, feared its own death. The were deterred by the principle of Mutually Assured Destruction.

The leaders of Iran are clinically insane and look forward to martyrdom and paradise.

So, my assessment is that the threat from Iran is actually much GREATER because they're not afraid to use their nukes, whereas the Soviet Union was.

Is Obama in de Nile?
Or is he on the side of Iran, Hezb'allah and al Qaeda?

Exactly. Barry is just showing his naivety again, assuming that all nations operate under the same belief system and that what works for one will work for another. Classical liberalism at its worst.

It may well be that we will soon have a POTUS that probably couldn't find Iran on a map if it didn't say 'IRAN' on it in big letters, and who equates a military/terrorism threat to a political threat (Dems take political threats way more seriously than military/terrorism threats for some reason). I hope our government is still organized in such a matter that a weak/stupid president can be compensated for, and cooler/wiser heads will prevail when needed.

[Link: www.frontpagemag.com...]

Obama understands that history is not the most popular subject in American schools, and he's cynically playing on the general lack of historical knowledge to make comparisons that are so unbalanced, they're beyond belief. He may not even really be clear about the history himself.

re: #83 jaunte

Yes, I reported on it last week in the spinoff links.

re: #70 Silhouette

Readers Digest version: The Soviets were sane. Iran is not.

Obama may believe this understanding cannot be understood by the electorate.

Since he already knows he is going to appease these maniacs, even when they use the same language and threats as Hitler (referring to Jews as vermin, diseases and insects, call for Israel's death, even saying Israel is already dead), he has NO BACK UP PLAN IF HE IS WRONG.

and by then it will be too late.

You cannot say you are sorry when you were warned of the consequences of your actions, you cannot bring back the dead and you cannot un-nuke something.

Just as Chamberlain helped Hitler by never demanding his ouster as policy, Obama helps the Ayatollahs get their nuke. Allowing dangerous dictators to arm themselves when they publicly call for war, is suicidal if you are attacked, murderous if you let someone else get it in the neck for your intellectual and moral bankruptcy. Israel is to Poland as Obama is to Chamberlain as Lebanon is to Austria as Iraq is to Spain.

The pattern is the familiar threat of a fascist dictatorship hell bent on war and genocide. As always the left is in lock-step with the aggressors, both blind to the danger and blinding those around them as well. Then the dagger comes out and its too late. Hitler missed Moscow by 25 miles, in the nuclear age, that is as good as a hit.

To OB does "tiny" mean a threat of tiny magnitude, or a massive threat with a "tiny" probability of being executed?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Let's see.

7 years ago, a bunch of guys squatting in tents picking at a boilded goats head with theri fingers brought down the World Trade Center and cost us trillions in losses, when all consequent damages are factored in.

What could Iran, an actual state, do?

Obama doesn't get terrorism.

Terrorism is highly efficient in causing damage disproportionate to the resources at the disposal of the terrorists.

What a maroon.

Anyway, I'm not sure what all the fuss s about.

At Reykjavik Gorbachov was ready to deal away a huge chunk of the Soviet Nuclear arsenal for terminating SDI. Reagan walked out.

Reagan and John Paul II pulled Poland out of the Soviet sphere. Reagan and the CIA played a lot of games with the Soviets that cost them billions, the natural gas pumps and the shuttle among them. Reagan challenged Soviet clients around the world, causing the Soviets to invest more money than they could afford propping up the clients. The Reagan defense build up further stress the Soviet economy. Finally Reagan cut off our support for the Russian economy, remember Carter's grain shipments? Russian had to buy food with hard currency, no more of Carter's bribes for peace.

If they get nuked, it is much harder to make a paradise.
Amadmanonjihad is looking for paradise in the next world. If his country gets nuked, it is their ticket to paradise.

MAD worked against the Soviets; it won't work where the "penalty", death, is desired, as long as they kill Jews first.

Ah, excuse me -- it was the "choom gang," not the "choomer squad":

Senior portraits show smiling graduates alongside added personal touches, such as snapshots of friends or pets, poetry, slogans and fond farewells.

"Barry" Obama, as he was then known, wears a 1970s-style wide-collared shirt and sports jacket, his hair in a neatly trimmed afro that covers the tops of his ears.

He added a photo of himself playing basketball, and a shot entitled "Still Life" that includes numerous items. Among them are a trophy, telephone, turntable and beer bottle.

A package of "Zig-Zag" rolling papers and a matchbook are prominently displayed in front, and in a brief caption he thanked the "Choom Gang" and others "for all the good times."

Obama wrote candidly in his autobiography about drug and alcohol use, and mentioned that a close friend had been arrested for drug possession during his high school years.

You know, Ahmadinejad has been to the US before - twice in fact.

And in both instances, he showed off just how batty he is. The first time he claimed to see auras - not a good sign if you're trying to determine whether he's rational (a sign of serious dementia in fact).

The second time, he claimed that there were no gays in Iran. None. Nada. Nil. Zip. Zilch.

Each time, he's also issued a da'wa to the US - submit or pay the consequences. And a country like Iran, which traffics in terrorism, is going to go to its old standbys as necessary. It has two proxy armies in Hizbullan and Hamas that threaten our ally Israel, even as they also threaten Egypt and Lebanon. Mere trifles according to Obama.

Ahmadinejad is a Twelver, a fanatics fanatic, he built a boulevard so the 12th Imam can have a nice parade when he comes back after 1000 years!

Obama continues to talk in the past and it is driving me apeshit. It is irrelevant what MADE Iran a threat, all that is relevant is that Iran IS a threat. All that matters to him is pinning the blame on Bush for everything that is an issue, while offering zero advice on how he may approach these problems...have the moonbats degraded so much that they are willing to elect someone solely on the "Its George Bushs damn fault!" so vote for me because its HIS fault!

Never underestimate the mental degradation of a true moonbat.

John McCain responded to Barack Obama’s assertion that Iran presents an insignificant threat to the US based on its size.

How much do you think gasoline is going to cost when Iran has the bomb?

On Fox News, they keep saying this crowd listening to Obama speak is 75-80 thousand people. I've been part of crowds that were literallly hundreds of thousands of people, and compared to those, this gathering in a little park is like "a postage stamp on a football field."

I guess whatever the crowd is, it will be called something at least ten times larger, in order to enhance the image of a "tidal wave" of support for America's most faulty candidate.

It's a ridiculous comparison.

"The Soviet Union had enough nukes to completely obliterate life on Earth. Iran, by comparison, may only make enough nukes to kill a measly ten million people. The threat is tiny by comparison! What's ten million people more or less?"

Even less of a problem since 7 mil will be Israelis. So really it's only 3 mil that he cares about. Tiny.

How are Barry's views going to bring this country together? His policy positions will in NO WAY bring us together, let alone his personal beliefs?

The narrative has been skewed wrongly. The point is not that
the US action in Iraq has made Iran stronger. Rather it is , has
President's Bush policies made Saddam stronger? Has his policies
made Bin Laden stronger? He exercised his policy against the
Tali ban and Saddam, not Iran. If we followed the same against Iran,
Iran would be made weaker also. Talking to Saddam did not weaken him, destroying his regime weakened him.

re: #135 unrealizedviewpoint

sweet.

Hey Y'all - just dropped in after listening to Obama.
What he did not specifically address were three points:
a) What is he going to talk to Iran about concerning the State of Israel?
b) What is he going to talk to Iran about concerning their continuing arming of and frequently sending their special troops (Quods) into Iraq and murdering Americans (not to mention lots of other Muslims)?
c) What is he going to talk to Iran about Iran's continuing threats to send suicide bombers into the United States to attack us here.
Fuck any comparison to the Old Soviet Empire. Those are the points which Senator Obama HAS to address.
And frankly, Senator McCain was absolutely correct when he wondered, in his remarks "What is Senator Obama going to talk to Iran about?"

I think if we hold on long enough, Obama is gonna commit political suicide - you can see it coming down the tracks like a freight train gaining speed.

First of all its quality, not quantity. A few nukes beat a lot of infantry.

Second, we're spending so much because we're providing part or all the defense for many nations across the world who are spending all their money on butter and not on guns.

But much more important than either of the above, the fact that Iran doesn't DIRECTLY threaten the US homeland with its military doesn't mean it isn't a threat or can be ignored. Iran, a fascist theocracy, is trying to become the hegemon of the Middle East, and its openly threatening to destroy a neighboring state (which it has already attacked via its proxy in Lebanon).

The Middle east is still a dominant world energy source.

Its harder to imagine a more clear-cut threat to regional and global security than that.

"...The Bush Administration has finessed the Iran nuclear problem by handing it to the E3/EU "process" – taken nowhere by the world's top diplomatic talkers from France, Germany and the U.K. For two years, Condoleezza Rice's State Department has played footsie with whomever speaks for Iran, to no effect. For either Barack Obama or Nancy Pelosi to suggest that they know better how to talk Iran's mullahs into an acceptable deal is, to put it gently, grandstanding.

Leaving no argument unturned, Democrats have reached back to Richard Nixon's trip to China and Ronald Reagan's negotiations with the Soviet Union as evidence that Republican Presidents "talk to the enemy." Put it this way: The day Iran brings forth a Chou Enlai and Syria a Mikhail Gorbachev, sure, give them a call.

Mr. Bush is right about one thing: At bottom this dispute is about understanding the nature of the enemy in Iran, Syria and other sponsors and practitioners of Islamic terror. If the tempest over his indelicate words causes the Democratic presidential nominee to think twice about the political cost of trafficking with Tehran or Damascus, uttering "appeasement" will have been worth it."

I think the only history books he's written were by Howard Zinn and his ilk.

re: #216 Abu Boo Boo

Obama calls Bush and McCain "naive" for not meeting with the Iranian Jew-hating thug regime.

I see he's going to mention Bush everytime he criticizes McCain.

That's the Obama strategy right now.

Bush has historically low approval ratings, therefore Obama is trying to tie McCain to Bush.

I think this is a good strategy. . .for McCain.

Considering that McCain has more or less established himself as a pain in Bush's backside for the last eight years, this one isn't going to "stick".

McCain can point to lots of times he's brought the Dems and Republicans together. Can Obama point to a SINGLE instance where he's done that?

Obama has bragged he's got a lot of Obamarepublicans. The weaker links, maybe.
