- neognostic, on 05/16/2008, -5/+4Obama takes the high road again, not using Rovesque tactic, but challenging McCain to debate the issues. Shame on you Bush for being the divisive, puppet of the military industrial complex. Shame on you who voted for him a second time.

- megawhy, on 05/17/2008, -0/+2Obama is an appeaser. His name needs to be identified clearly. When he whines like a child he needs to be called on the carpet. It is time to take the gloves off and give Obama the attention he deserves. He wants to be in the kitchen and it is hot! Obama is an elitist. Can you tell he will not be getting my vote! :-)

- chimpout, on 05/16/2008, -3/+5Obama is such a ***** baby. Any time anyone criticizes his stated policy positions (such as the fact that he has said he will meet with the leaders of nations that sponsor terrorism, without preconditions), he throws a temper tantrum. And his media cheerleaders always have his back. It's disgusting.
- caferrell, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1There has been a tradition since the inception of our nation, that national politics do not take place outside our borders. Bush completely broke with that tradition.
We need to try to show unity when we are in other countries. It is unacceptable for the lame duck President to talk that way about the man who will very probably be the next President.

- Ruler4you, on 05/16/2008, -3/+2This is where Obama has lost total touch with reality. We did not bring this fight on. We did not set the expectations for world domination and executions for non muslims. We did not take to killing innocents as the way to make a 'statement' about our intent. We do not embrace the philosophy of lies and deceit as the way to achieve those means.
But we are in a war. And it costs the same as every other war: lives and fortunes.
There fore the only answer can be to attack as though we wanted to be there and annihilate the self described enemy of ours to our total satisfaction. Period.
Anything less is weakness and a vector for defeat... and that is not an option in my playbook.- Anecdote, on 05/16/2008, -2/+2I can honestly say that your perception and conclusions is reality and truth inverted. You are, though, perfectly in accord with the radical right wing's propaganda campaign.
A few thoughts about your comments:
"We did not set the expectations for world domination and executions for non muslims." I assume that you are aware that the US, with the fall of the USSR, is the world's only superpower, and is the most wealthy and powerful nation in the history of the planet. To say that a loose network of loosers & radical extremists in third world nations are capable of destroying the US (or any Western Nation State for that matter) is pure fantasy. We have invaded two middle eastern nations and have installed our own governments, and are presently nation building in two middle eastern nations. Think about it...
"We did not take to killing innocents as the way to make a 'statement' about our intent." See "Shock and Awe", the civilian body count, Amnesty international and Red Cross' reports, deaths by torture, Black Sites, allowing Blackwater to operate outside of any law. Then look at the international laws laid out in the Geneava Convention.
"But we are in a war." A war we chose and one carried out on illegal grounds as stated by international law.
"And it costs the same as every other war: lives and fortunes". Cold, cruel and callous, and wholly irresponsible in terms of economics; but the real problem with this statement is that this war was a war of our choosing. Iraq did not attack us. We were sold this war on lies about the immanent threat this nation posed. We are staying there based on new lies about the threat it will pose. We are staying there for reasons that are wholly unnecessary to our national interest.
"There fore the only answer can be to attack as though we wanted to be there and annihilate the self described enemy of ours to our total satisfaction." The twelve Saudis who perpetrated 9/11 annihilated themselves. If you you are advocating genocide (like Hitler), you and your kind will end where all followers this murderous ideology eventually end - "in history's unmarked grave of discarded lies".
To make such derranged statements, I hope you enlisted are willing to go and fight this war. - caferrell, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1@Ruler4you
Who is the enemy? Who can we attack? All of the Arab and Persian Muslims?
There is no enemy against which an army can prevail. As a matter of fact, due to the nature of this conflict, the more we kill and pressure with our armed forces the more the resistance to our policies will cohere against us.
The all powerful military of the USA is useless against Muslim terrorism.
There are other ways of solving this crisis, but it takes a number of paragraphs to explain. You want sound bites and talking points, not cogent reasoning by educated adults.

- farmerjohn48pan, on 05/16/2008, -1/+2I guess Obacarama don't like it when someone calls him what he is. Why is it that he can say whatever he wants and if you disagree you are being divisive or a racist?
- IconoclastStill, on 05/16/2008, -2/+5And obie's plan is not to be the next JFK, but the next Chamberlain or another "plodding nonentity" like the peanut flavored Georgia jellyfish - *THAT* is what is "appalling," not recognizing and standing firm against threats to this nation. I don't know whether obie is truly so gullible or if he believes the electorate is.

- IconoclastStill, on 05/16/2008, -0/+1Well, this is true, no doubt of that.

- ernliz, on 05/16/2008, -2/+2Funny how Obama thought that Bush's comments applied to him! What a creep and egoist. In fact, Jimmy Carter was the likely target of the appeasement comment.
Obama needs to step into the real world and out of his elitist, shrouded, and fantasy existence where the whole universe orbits around only him! - NYPD, on 05/16/2008, -4/+0Obama said it and is being a hypocrite right now talking about the President when he is out of Country.

- Darksoul, on 05/16/2008, -2/+2I love these losers on here that when Bush says something ***** stupid and I agree "appalling" people are like Obama is a cry baby hes this hes that but what most are you are failing to get is he has every right to address the issue would you rather him ingore it and take it up the ass sorry but it doesn't work that way. Bush is just worried that Obama will come in and undue everything he has created which is why he trying to make McCain seem like the better choice he wants some one who will continue his war period.
Hes fear mongering again and most of you losers want Obama to take Bush's ***** and sit down like a good little boy get over yourselves. Don't kid yourselves Obama isn't a pussy that's afraid to go to war he will use our power and our military when he needs to.- NYPD, on 05/16/2008, -0/+0Are you retarded? Did you read what you wrote or did your kid do it for you? It's dribble
- DOGODSWILL, on 05/17/2008, -1/+0Anyone that takes a stand against the teachings of JESUS CHRIST like the MUSLIMS & LIBERALS do , are spiritually retarded to say the least.
- downs1, on 05/17/2008, -0/+3While I disagree more and more with some of what Bush says and does, I do believe that Obama has mischaracterized what the President said. Bush never named Obama. Bush has never said anything against Obama. He is not into character assassination as are the Democrats. He doesn't have to do that, because he believes they will do it to themselves. Bush talks issues, not personalities. When someone screws up, like Jimmy Carter does (repeatedly), Bush will talk about the screw-up and its probable consequences, and why it is foolish, but he doesn't name names. Obama must have a guilty conscience if he identifies with Bush's comments. That says to me that Obama is rather weak and unable to handle heat even if it isn't directed at him. He is not the best candidate for the Presidency of the United States. This will become abundantly clear in the future.
- DOGODSWILL, on 05/17/2008, -0/+0I totaly agree you.
- DOGODSWILL, on 05/17/2008, -1/+0 There never has been a time when a MUSLIM or LIBERAL don't cry (fail play) when they are matched up to ( JESUS CHRIST )the TRUTH. OBAMA and his wife are both LIBERALS & MUSLIMS that hate CHRISTIANS & AMERICA , and anyone that is for them , is nothing less.
- Jagdhund, on 05/18/2008, -0/+1You're spreading propaganda and are doing nothing good for the conservative cause. Please stop.
Obama may be many terrible things, but he is not a practicing Muslim. I don't think he even hates America. He is simply wrong on the issues and until we face and defeat him on those issues the left will continue to point to rhetoric like yours as proof that conservatism is non-intellectual.

- Tadastra, on 05/17/2008, -0/+0A more experienced politician or even dog-catcher would have avoided stepping into that- he drew negative focus on himeself when it wasn't even about him.
Tsk...tsk...tsk - caferrell, on 05/17/2008, -1/+1Where did these people come from?
Some polygamist encampment in Texas?
