Obama condemns Ahmadinejad, but still wants talks

President Barack Obama on Tuesday condemned as "appalling and objectionable" a speech by Iran's president which denounced Israel as a racist state and prompted a walkout from a U.N. conference on racism.

Delegates at the troubled United Nations meeting, meanwhile, speedily adopted an anti-racism declaration the day after the dramatic protest by Western states at the comments by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Ahmadinejad was the only head of state to address the Geneva conference, known as Durban II, which is being boycotted by about a dozen countries including the United States who fear it could be used to single out Israel for criticism.

On Monday the Iranian president, who has in the past raised doubts about the Nazi Holocaust -- commemorated by Jews that day -- denounced Israel as a "totally racist government" founded "on the pretext of Jewish sufferings".

Obama said in Washington: "I found many of the statements ... appalling and objectionable."

Given he spent 22 years listening to the insane rants of a bigot name Wright, I’m sure the President isn’t offended by Imindamood4jihad one bit.

Don’t forget the bow in front of Ahmadinejad. Of course it will be an extra deep bow, because Mahmood is a midget.

Or perhaps Obama is differing, just as it did it for Rev. Wright: “no way in heck Amadin’s part of my house, but he’ll be part of the house of the little American kiddies in the future”

The idea of him refusing to meet with Netinyahu while he eagerly looks forward to an audience with dinner jacket should speak volumes to anyone with half a brain.

... Obama treats us the way his whore nother treated him to the Mosque for the Imam’s pleasure and for her own comfort of “independent free spirit of mind”.

I am not photoshop savvy but would love to see a pic of Zero with two faces. He talks out of both sides of his mouth to get attention from both sides of every issue. I'm starting to think that all those who voted for him must be really stupid not to see through him.

“obectionable” because it was said in public—Hussein likely agreed with the content.

did Hussein ever release the tape or transcripts of him praising that Hamas guy?

Obama sees commonalty with "Imanutjob" and craves a friendly visit as soon as he can politically be allowed to show that America is subservient to the Persian way of life.

0bama just wants to kiss Ahmadinejad’s hand, and share put downs of America. 0 could apologize some more, and, wink-wink, let him know it is okay to bomb Israel.

This is what happens when you elect an inexperienced empty suit as President of the US. Real heads of Country’s have fun playing games with him

What a crock of crap. Obama listened to his precher for over 20 years say worse about America and has never found that appalling or objectionable.... What a hypocrite....

“President Barack Obama on Tuesday condemned as ‘appalling and objectionable’ a speech by Iran’s president which denounced Israel as a racist state”

Suddenly he’s not the ‘Imanutjob’ we’ve all grown to know and love, Obama!

You are either the stupidest President of all time or you are pretending to be the stupidest President of all time.
