Link via Karl, who wonders what Obama could possibly mean here after his stirring testament at Saddleback to what a “real bad person” Saddam Hussein was.
The Illinois senator’s opposition to the Iraq war, which his comment clearly referenced, is well known. But this was the first time the Democratic presidential candidate has made a comparison between the U.S. invasion of Iraq and Russia’s recent military activity in Georgia.“We’ve got to send a clear message to Russia and unify our allies,” Obama told a crowd of supporters in Virginia. “They can’t charge into other countries. Of course it helps if we are leading by example on that point.”

And moreover, for what it may or may not be worth, not once did the Russians invade Georgia, or any other nation, with international (e. g., United Nations) resolutions of endorsement and approval.
I was going to write that this guy is a literal black hole of stupidity, but I am retracting the statement on the grounds that whiny liberals will pee their pants and call me a racist.
Obama: more arrogant than Bill Clinton, more naive than Jimmy Carter, and more liberal than LBJ.
Obama: America’s invasion of the Taliban’s Afghanistan and Saddam’s Iraq after the 9/11 attacks inspired Russia to invade democratically-elected president Mikheil Saakashvili’s Georgia. OK. That is truly the most moronic equation in the entire history of foreign policy relativism.
did Rush comment on this ? wow the dumb arrogance of this America hating leftist
Treasonous, anti-American, liberal, lying idiot. Plain and simple.
Is this dumbfvck really comparing the situation in Iraq to that in Georgia? Let’s see Iraq was led by a brutal dictator, harboring weapons of mass destruction, putting his citizens into acid vats, and disobeying about 500 United Nation orders. Calling Obama stupid is an insult to stupid.
Technically we *did* invade Iraq, but that’s a GOOD thing for all the reasons you cite. It’s a damned shame, however, that the Bush Admin has been so woefully inept in communicating the GOOD that Operation Iraqi Freedom has brought to the world to the Iraqi people and the world in general.
What?
You didn't really say that, did you? Admit it: You're trying to get Hillary nominated next week, aren't you?
I get the feeling that this Obama feller doesn’t like the United States much. Well, we don’t like him much, either.
I’ve been waiting for this one. I am surprised it took them so long. Moral equivalence rides again. Now all we have to do is sit back and wait for some enterprising reporter to ask Obama which UN resolutions Georgia had violated and when the vote on the invasion was taken in the Russian legislature.
I cannot believe how incredibly stupid he is. I mean rock-hard stupid. Dehydrated-rock-hard stupid. World-class, A-1, top of the heap, triple whopper with cheese, supersized stupid. So stupid that it goes way beyond the stupid we know into a whole different dimension of stupid. One-of-a-kind, global, universal, intergalactic stupid. He is trans-stupid stupid. Meta-stupid. Stupid collapsed on itself so far that even the neutrons have collapsed. Stupid so dense that no intellect can escape. Singularly, extraordinarily, incredibly, bewilderingly stupid. Blazing hot mid-day sun on Mercury stupid. He emits more stupid in one second than our entire galaxy emits in a year. Quasar stupid. His life is a monument to stupidity. I am breathless that anyone or anything in our universe can really be this stupid. He is a primordial fragment from the original big bang of stupid. Some pure essence of a stupid so uncontaminated by anything else as to be beyond the laws of stupidity that we know. A behemoth, a levathan, a colossus of stupidity.

Was Serbia a democracy when we took Kosovo away from them?
“America did Not Invade Iraq. We Liberated Iraq from a dreadful dictator, freed it from al Quaida, and gave democracy to its people. Russia’s invasion of Georgi is an attempt to reestablish their former Czarist Empire.”
Those small points are lost on the left.
Obama probably actually knows this, but he is playing to the left base and hoping for traction from anti-war sentiment.
What else is he going to say?
McCain made him look like a total chump on Georgia and the surge.
Obama will be a disaster for America if elected! A radical nitwit in charge!....
“Yup theres a HUGE parallel between Iraq and Georgia invasions. Huge. As huge as the gap between my big ears” — Hussein Obama, thin skinned wussie loathesome whiner
Democrats will roll in the gutters of Hades to get this muslim elected. He lied about being a muslim, the entry form into the school where he went clearly stated he was a muslim.
Pray for the best but remember, if he does get elected and then admits to being a muslims the democrats will be guilty of a grave error!
A civil war began once in the USA and things like this could ignite another.
Yo, Barry. So are you saying we can't go after Quebec now?
