i’m sorry, that may not have come across ad politically correct, even though mayor ray nagan can call new orleans a “chocolate city”.

we’ll just call it “carter, part deux”

Let them talk and when Iran either snubs them outright or lies about what they’re doing then I will be one of the millions that say, “told you so!”.

Wonder if he will bow to the Ayatollah like he did to the Saudi king? and then have the WH deny it as our enemies rejoice at our weakness.

The enemies of America see Obama for the naive fool he is. How many “peace accords” with Israel did the Palestinians violate?

Terrorists, Islamists but I repeat myself, only understand violence and complete capitulation.

The sun is quickly setting on America…

America peaked in the 1950’s.

It’s been all downhill ever since with a few positive upticks.

And that is coming from someone who was born in 1976...

The 1950’s represents adult Americans who grew up during the Depression, fought in WWII and then returned home to rebuild the United States. It was the time when one knew their neighbor, worshiped God, loved their country and slept with their doors and windows unlocked. The iconic Norman Rockwell America.

The problem with “I told you so”... Is the millions that will die to teach that lesson.... I think radical Islam spoke loud and clear on 9/11/01 but many like Obama do not see it like this and try to minimalize the impact of 911. My question to the idiot appeasers is how many more have to die to teach you that there is no negotiating with these terrorists? 19 middle aged middle class muslim men turned aircraft into suicide weapons of mass destruction purposley killing themselves in order to inflict as much damage on this country as they could. Even the most radical Americans would never strap bombs on themselves and go into a mosque in Saudi Arabia to kill as many arabs as they could.

It’s sad when the “I told you so” has to follow millions of innocent deaths but that’s how it’s got to go for at least the next 4 years.

What do you expect from Benedict Obama?

his job is to make us equal to his third world countries

Exactly, that's why he stopped the Pentagon from purchasing F-22's and research for airborn lazers to shoot down nukes lifting off their launch pads. He won't even fund defensive weapons.

He is a traitor in my eyes. But then he was never really one of us in the first place.

Any word on whether Obama will actually endorse Ahmadinejad before Iran's June election? ...he's done everything else to ensure his election.

this kind of reminds me of that scene from the movie “Mars Attacks” when the martians come to talk peace

“If you have enemies... and you want those enemies to do certain things it makes sense to have blunt direct talks with them.”

These countries/governements are no more than schoolyard bullies. Yes, thats a simplistic view, but the only way to talk with the schoolyard bully is to punch him in the mouth.

To use that analogy a bigger kid who just walks up to a bully and punches him won’t have nearly the deterrent effect of talking to him telling him that you will be watching him and that if picks on another little kid you’ll hit him. And then hitting him.

How long have we tried that approach though? The punch in the mouth seemed to do well for Reagan as far as the middle east was concerned. He hit the leaders personally when need arose. Besides, Obama doesn’t have the testicular fortitude do as you propose. He wouldn’t be popular in Europe anymore.

Oh, I dread some of the possibilities - of what we might give away.

But frankly we’ve had two 2 term presidents in a row who could seem to talk but not give away. I guess its asking for a lot.
