Obama blasts Bush over 'Nazi' comments (Bush invokes Nazis in apparent hit on Obama)

WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama accused President Bush on Thursday of launching a "false political attack" with a comment about appeasing terrorists and radicals.

The Illinois senator interpreted the remark as a slam against him but the White House denied that Bush's words were in any way directed at Obama, who has said as president he would be willing to personally meet with Iran's leaders and those of other regimes the United States has deemed rogue.

In a speech to Israel's Knesset, Bush said: "Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along.

[F15Eagle]

LOL - S.S. Obama takes one broadside - I agree with Bush --- MSM weeps and cries 'foul' for their chosen messiah

[Right Cal Gal]

Truth hurts, don’t it, Barry?

[avacado]

Hey Obama! Bush never mentioned your name but if you are feeling like a little weasel appeaser then perhaps the shoe fits!

[griswold3]

Go, GW!!
Obama is either naive or ignorant of history.

[Tex Pete]

I would imagine the President was referring to the worst world “leader” of all time...Jimmy Carter.

[SlowBoat407]

I just wish President Bush had not backpedaled as far as any hints that he meant Obama. I wish he had said, “Damn right, I was talking about Senator Obama. He’s an appeaser and he’s dangerous for this country.”

[txroadkill]

I just love how Obama immediately owned this as soon as Bush said it.

[bill1952]

Ah, Watson - the games afoot!

[the_Watchman]

One shouldn’t negotiate with terrorists and radicals, but negotiating with Hamas and the PLO is O.K.? Sure sounds like the pot calling the kettle black to me.

[Neoliberalnot]

Next to the mass murdering crowd of obama’s cohorts, the nazis actually look tame.

[Miss Didi]

And Barry sends out the Puffster and Lurch to protest!

RUSH: Home run grand slam Bush!

[HoosierHawk]

Dana Perino: "...I understand when you're running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you. That is not always true. And it is not true in this case."

Self-centered libs: It's always all about them.

[F15Eagle]

Obama sure thought it was meant for him.

Of course, Obama’s tacit approval for Carter’s Hamas meeting is being reported as the winking nod during the “Can’t I just eat my waffle?” incident.

So, if the shoe fits, Obomba .... heat ... kitchen ... get out ... that sort of thing

[mbarker12474]

Bush wasn’t referring to Barry O’, he was referring to Natalie Maines.

[F15Eagle]

yes - inbound connected with the target - direct hit S.S. Obama

[txroadkill]

did you see this?

[hsalaw]

This is hysterically funny. Romney said on FOX this morning that when you throw a stone over the fence, the dog that barks is the one who was hit. This stone hit Obama dead on, and now he’s yapping about it.

[F15Eagle]

Theoretically, Condi and Bush would have you believe they’re only negotiating with Fatah and Abbas.

But as we know, a mad mo terrorist group by any other name or leader, would still smell as bad. And attempt to blow you up.

[eureka!]

Smooth move, Obama. Way to adopt a charge. Truth hurts. And it will hurt the U.S. even more if your fraudulent @ss ever sits in the Oval office...

[andy58-in-nh]

Get used to it, folks - any significant criticism leveled against The Obamessiah will generate an accusation, not a response. It's part of the Obama plan: utilize the fact of being the first black Presidential nominee as insulation and the fawning admiration of the news media as armor.

[gate2wire]

Sounds like the Pres. struck a nerve...

[F15Eagle]

thanks

[lonevoice]

I howled when I heard that response from the White House. It’s perfect!

[ZX12R]

This sure seems to have gotten under their skin. That usually signals the truthfulness of the comment.

[ConservaTexan]

"I would hope that any serious person would disassociate himself with the president's remarks," she added. [Pelosi]

This is a thinly veiled call for McCain's 'Repudiation Express' to condemn Bush's remarks. (Which I am sure McCain will honor)

[philled]

I do wish he would have given further examples. Something like:

"Even if a settlement is negotiated with terror, we can not be assured of 'Peace in our Time' if dealing if with regimes committed to destruction."

and

"I think we may have used our ingenious arguments with Tehran in 1979."

and

Closed with a paraphrasing of Golda Meier's "until they love their children more than they hate us".

[Lancey Howard]

I liked press secretary Dana Perino's reply:

"I understand when you're running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you. That is not always true."

LOL, no question that simple scumbag Obama thinks the world revolves around him. But I think what Hussein is trying to do here is separate himself from the primary and evolve into full "general campaign" mode. Inane, nonsensical comments like these from Obama are meant only to generate headlines and news, as well as to put distance between himself and the vanquished (?) Hillary.

Fasten your seatbelt - - there will be about six more months of this idiocy.

[enough_idiocy]

Obama needs to get off his high horse. Bush has been saying this long before Obama was a twinkle in the MSM’s eyes. The speech does not speak to Obama, it includes a line Bush has used before and refers to a Senator in 1938. http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=4861337

If Obama thinks it speaks to him that says more about what Obama thinks of his position than what Bush said/thinks.

And Pelosi and moronic Biden who have lashed out about this need to find something to do.

The fact of the matter is Bush is 100% correct and the Dems are the Chamberline party.

[y6162]

“Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals..”

When the Dems scream this loud, a hit, a palpable hit, has been struck. W can do McCain a service by attacking Dems on national security issues.

[ChiMark]

Obama does’nt know the U.S. has 50 states.

History? I’ll bet Hussein believes WWII was fought in 1968.

[mbarker12474]

I just wish President Bush had not backpedaled as far as any hints that he meant Obama. I wish he had said, “Damn right, I was talking about Senator Obama. He’s an appeaser and he’s dangerous for this country.” He shoulda said: "Damn right, I was talking about Barry HUSSEIN Obama. And I was also talking about the entire Democratic Party establishment, who'd toss Israel to Hamas tomorrow if they thought it'd get 'em a couple votes. And I was also talking about the anti-Semitic academic left, who'd toss Israel to Hezbullah as an act of compassion for thugs. And I was also talking about the anti-Semitic mailine Protestant churches, who'd toss Israel to Iran in the name of an uber-tolerant Jesus."

[SF Republican]

So Obama is part of the everything is about me crowd?

[SMARTY]

“George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists...”

How's that for brass? This statement is a howling lie. Obama said and more than once...that he would meet with these criminals. What's the problem if the President responds either directly or indirectly to that statement?

Time for Obama to grow up!

[1035rep]

Truth hurts! B Hussein can go to hell.

[Big Horn]

Dashole was shocked and saddened. It brought tears to my eyes, from laughing. Where could Obomba find a better co-chairman of his campaign?

[manc]

funny how Obama and his Ilk suddenly felt paranoid

mmm, truth hurts

he thinks we should talk to Iran leader etc but not to Bin laden

why Barry what’s the difference they hate us and a talk over a cup of tea in the white house isn’t going to change that view

this just shows just how clueless Obama is along with him thinking there are over 57 states in this country

clueless just like his dumb voters

[taraytarah]

Sounds like the Pres. struck a nerve...

"Leave me and my transparency outta this."

[linn37]

What a crybaby.

[pillut48]

[snort] Hey, Ubama!! Call Godwin's Law" on President Bush and the whole issue will disappear into the ether, LOL! :-) What a weinie.

[Tex Pete]

“He shoulda said: “Damn right, I was talking about Barry HUSSEIN Obama.”

Except, I am pretty sure he was talking about Jimmy Carter. I think Obama just felt guilty.

[taraytarah]

I would imagine the President was referring to the worst world “leader” of all time...Jimmy Carter.

"I thought he meant me, too, Tex."

[NormsRevenge]

2Pac Pelosi whines on top of the hour news about the President criticizing folks back home when on foreign soil.. and not returning the courtesy extended to him by others.. lol

I think she and Obama soiled themselves real good over this one.. idiots.

When haven’t the dems gone out fot heir way to let it rip anytime anywhere includig foreign soil..

[griswold3]

Exactly!
Me thinks thou dost protest too much!

[manc]

obama and his voters yet again prove just how dumb they are.

So they get upset that Bush says we shouldn’t speak to those who want the end to Israel, hate us etc and Obama gets his panties in a twist

This has proved just how sensitive Obama is and needs to be played on

of course I don’t expect the likes of the media and especially MSNBC, CNN to ask Obama who is would sit with and why not others he wouldn’t speak to

[XR7]

Good for President Bush.

Isn't it interesting how Oblama interpreted the president's statements as referring to himself?
The president never mentioned him.
Guilty conscience?
Caught with egg on his face?
Appeaser?

Here's the video: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/24647139#24647139

[1035rep]

“I thought he meant me, too, Tex.”

LOL, probably did:)

[Reagan Man]

Yeah Obama, if the shoe fits ...

Touche Mister President!

[Red6]

So,

It's obvious that you're not “allowed” to address the man whose middle name shall not be mentioned in any negative way without being labeled as: racist, xenophobic, or mean spirited.

[mortal19440]

“I would hope that any serious person would disassociate himself with the president’s remarks,” she added.

I am a very serious Vet and I associate myself totally with the Presidents remarks. I also seriously think that Obama and Botox Pelosi don’t give a sh*t about this country and they are howling because they know they were described perfectly by Pres Bush. I hope that someone keeps the pressure on these pussies.

[F15Eagle]

Yes Obama is “he-who-must-not-be-criticized” ... or he and the MSM think so.

Fat chance boys. It’s a long way to November ... we’re not going to give up
