McCain Rips Obama: 'Reckless'
littlegreenfootballs.com — John McCain is now on Fox News, speaking to NRA, and is tearing Barack Obama a new foreign policy clue. I have some news for Senator Obama: talking, not even with soaring rhetoric, (unconditional)... in unconditional meetings with a man...

- lgfaphile, on 05/16/2008, -1/+23Finally, now, hopefully, they will start taking Barry O to task for all the meaningless sophistry he spews so well.
- davidmesaaz, on 05/16/2008, -1/+16great....
- hitcharide, on 05/16/2008, -1/+22Not that I think much of mccain, but he has obama pegged well. How long till liberals start claiming racism on the part of mccain? It may very well be the democrats answer to all questions on obamas thinking and policies...whether important or trivial, all questions of obamas wisdom are from here on out to be labeled racism! What a tactic! Overwhelm America with political correctness and hope all are blinded to the truth! But....will it work on anyone but a democrat....hmmmmm.....rather doubt it.
- hitcharide, on 05/16/2008, -1/+14Greetings Ryan....yes, it begins, but who knows where it will lead.......
- Cheezo, on 05/17/2008, -0/+7howdy Phil... of course they will scream racism at any question of any position of obama, just as they'd cry sexism at any question of any position of hillary...
I say "Cry Havoc!..."

- spankaccount, on 05/17/2008, -1/+20Obama has said some really dumb thing these past couple of days... it's apparent that he is very weak on foreign policy.
- IconoclastStill, on 05/17/2008, -1/+12He's weak on everything except rhetoric . . . talks a great game, but strictly a BBB bench-warmer when it comes to playing it.
- Klingon00, on 05/17/2008, -1/+14And just how does one negotiate with someone when the starting point is your death? Do you tell them "Ok, but can you wait a year to do it"? At some point is should be obvious that negotiations will be fruitless unless both parties are willing to recognize some mutual benefit, or someone is being a fool.
Good for McCain for pointing out Obama's foolishness, it's about time we started to hear some sort of opinion of his opposition. - dkapuchino, on 05/17/2008, -1/+12I was truly in pain watching the news yesterday. Obama has amazing Rhetoric. He can definitely entice the masses. McCain has his ***** straight, but he isn't half the demagogue Obama is.
Obama's foreign policy is naive at the best. "Sitting down and talking" might work with Cuba and Venezuela. It won't work with Muslim countries. Obama shows complete misunderstanding of how that part of the world works. In a society where people are killed daily for "Family honor", blood feuds, and plain religious zealous, "lets just sit down and talk" is exactly the way to lose their respect. If they are murdering you or your allies children and women, and all you have to offer in return is Diplomacy, all you come out as is "Pathetic Americans". Think about high school. When those three bullies came to beat you up, did you tell them: "Hey guys, lets sit down and talk. What is it that you want from me? My lunch money? okay, let's negotiate that".
Diplomacy is the way to solve conflict. There is no doubt about that. But diplomacy that can't be backed with military strength and the willingness to use that military strength is just an invitation for your enemies to take more American lives. - Maninthemiddle, on 05/17/2008, -1/+6Negotiating with Iran's current government:
Looky Mr. Ahmadnutjob! Down in the well - the 13th Imam - maybe even the 14th or 15th!.
No, you need to look closer, waaayyyy down there. In the well - can't you see? You have to look closer... closer... closerrrrr...
Oops.
Better get Lassie - what? No dogs?
Looky Mr. MadMullahKhomeini! Down in the well... - hitcharide, on 05/17/2008, -1/+7Ok, man, that was pretty good....didn't see the "no dogs" part coming. Everyone else has it pretty well pegged though; how DOES one negotiate with someone who only seeks your death and no compromise is possible? And...why would anyone be dumb enough to try? I've said it before...I really don't care if liberals have a death wish/pact with islam, go to it guys and hope there's enough virgins to go 'round, but leave the rest of us be!
- InRussetShadows, on 05/17/2008, -1/+6I think Obama has a great career waiting for him at the State Department. Those guys talk all day and get precisely nothing done, because they conceive of other countries as functioning exactly like the US except for a few minor differences in dress and cuisine. His interminable cluelessness will be right up their alley.
