Oh, how the idiots rush to pat one another on the back. Well, I guess they have to get their moment of fame in this life before they meet their Creator and realize just how stupid they were.
Inept! I can not imagine two candidates more unsuited for the presidency than the bozos Clinton and Obama. Unbelievable!
Either Obama didn’t know, didn’t care whether he was right or not, or just went with the moment and lied.
Not good, any way you slice it.
but not a surprise.
IIRC, Rockefeller was the one, and the ONLY one at that time, that claimed Iraq was an “imminent threat”
Agreed.
Brilliant? Can Obama say MED-VE-DEV?
Statement of Senator John D. Rockefeller IV on the Senate Floor On the Iraq Resolution
October 10, 2002
There is unmistakable evidence that Saddam Hussein is working aggressively to develop nuclear weapons and will likely have nuclear weapons within the next five years. And that may happen sooner if he can obtain access to enriched uranium from foreign sources -- something that is not that difficult in the current world. We also should remember we have always underestimated the progress Saddam has made in development of weapons of mass destruction.

But this isnt just a future threat. Saddams existing biological and chemical weapons capabilities pose a very real threat to America, now. Saddam has used chemical weapons before, both against Iraqs enemies and against his own people. He is working to develop delivery systems like missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles that could bring these deadly weapons against U.S. forces and U.S. facilities in the Middle East.

There has been some debate over how "imminent" a threat Iraq poses. I do believe that Iraq poses an imminent threat, but I also believe that after September 11, that question is increasingly outdated. It is in the nature of these weapons, and the way they are targeted against civilian populations, that documented capability and demonstrated intent may be the only warning we get. To insist on further evidence could put some of our fellow Americans at risk. Can we afford to take that chance? We cannot!
Ruh roh!
Obama-lama-ding-dong *PING* !!!!
They both whiffed on the Medvedev question from Russert. Remember when Bush got labeled an idiot when he failed Andy Hiller’s “Pop Quiz” in 1999?
You know how you listen to the ‘sound’ of a lot of rock music without really being able to understand the lyrics?
That’s the mob’s reaction to Obama’s speeches. It’s “all sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
Watching Obama is a bit scary...I would not have believed someone so inept and unqualified would have made it this far.
If there were a White House H.R. department and a job qualifications for president were posted, Obama’s and Clinton’s resumes would go straight to the trash can. I really do fear for our country when I see how far these two idiots have come in this election.
We need video on this. Anyone?
My take on all this is that we are witnessing the first afirmative action presidential campaign in history. We have two candidates who got to where they are because of gender and race, not for anything they have done, which is the definition of affirmative action.
Obama’s wife was whining about her negative experience at university - my take is she also is an affirmative action product. She got into Yale, or whatever ivy leage school it was, because of her gender and race and soon found herself unable to keep up academically and in general had a miserable experience knowing she shouldn’t be there. Thomas Sowell has written about this and I suspect Michelle Obama is a perfexct example of affirmative action failing, once again.
Now we have the possiblility of having the first president of the US a product of affirmative action...GOD help us if this comes to pass.
You’re right, except that it was Princeton she was whining about in what passed for a thesis. Now she has a job paying over $300,000 a year doing “community outreach” for Chicago hospitals. Affirmative action all the way.
I recalled it as one of the over-rated ivy league schools.
As inarticulate as she is and how she continually sticks her foot in her yap, I don’t get the impression she is particularly bright and my guess is she was wiffled through school with gift grades so the U could wave their quota numbers around. The entire lot of them are the product of continual free passes.
