Original posting at 8:28 a.m. ET: President Bush just made some interesting remarks about terrorism, going so far as to describe negotiating with terrorist groups as a "foolish delusion" akin to the appeasement that failed to stop Nazi Germany from invading its European neighbors.
Bush didn’t explicitly criticize Sen. Barack Obama, but CNN says anonymous White House aides "are acknowledging" that the president was referring to the Democratic presidential hopeful, who has said he would be willing to meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad…
We just received a statement from Obama via USA TODAY’s On Politics blog. "It is time to turn the page on eight years of policies that have strengthened Iran and failed to secure America or our ally Israel," he says. "Instead of tough talk and no action, we need to do what Kennedy, Nixon and Reagan did and use all elements of American power – including tough, principled, and direct diplomacy – to pressure countries like Iran and Syria. George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists, and the president’s extraordinary politicization of foreign policy and the politics of fear do nothing to secure the American people or our stalwart ally Israel."
Unbelievable! The guy knows no boundries. Why doesn’t he just stand up in front of people and break wind, or burp? Whether it was his idea or the idea of some speechwriter, he should have had the decency to red-line that part of his speech whether he believes what he said or not. It would be okay for him to say that on a stump in Missouri. We’re used to that kind of deliberate misinterpretation of anything any Democrat says, but showing his ass on the world stage [again] just isn’t kosher. I hope to hell it’s as offensive to his pals as it is to everyone else…
He’s got me talking like a sailor. Maybe that was what he wanted, because it’s rolling out of mouths all over the country [Lawmakers Respond To Bush: ‘Bullsh*t’ And ‘Malarkey’ That Is ‘Beneath The Dignity’ Of The Oval Office]. %*@#%$*&^!
