Senator Squisy, AKA, Senator “someone mentioned appeasement so they must have been talking about me,” AKA Barack NMN Obama, is still whining about Bush’s comments, and all sorts of outlets, from the Credentialed Media to the left wing blogs to the Democrat stooges are still having meltdowns. It is front page of most of the credentialed media, and Barackobama.com features this video of the Messiah

That reminds me, I need to get some whine and cheese for the little soiree I am going to tonight.

(MSNBC) “I’m a strong believer in civility and I’m a strong believer in a bipartisan foreign policy, but that cause is not served with dishonest, divisive attacks of the sort that we’ve seen out of George Bush and John McCain over the last couple days, ” Obama told about 2,000 voters at a town hall-style meeting in a livestock barn.

“That’s exactly the kind of appalling attack that’s divided our country and that alienates us from the world,” Obama said.

This speech once again proves that Obama has missed the last 7 years of Democrat attacks on the United States’ foreign policy, much like he missed the 20 years of hate Jeremiah Wright spewed. Attacks such as

• As Commander in Chief of the United States Military, I will never send our sons and daughters and our brothers and sisters to die in a foreign land without telling the truth about why they’re going there. Howard Dean
• This country was the moral leader of the world until George Bush became president. Howard Dean
• Shamefully we now learn that Saddam’s torture chambers reopened under new management, U.S. management. Ted Kennedy
• You know, education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. If you don’t, you get stuck in Iraq. John Kerry (humorously, Brainy Quote has removed John Kerry from it’s website. Guess his 15 minutes has expired)
• George Bush’s vision does not live up to the America I enlisted in the Navy to defend, the America I have fought for in the Senate, and the America that I hope to lead as President. John Kerry
• ”He betrayed this country!” Al Gore
• “If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime - Pol Pot or others - that had no concern for human beings. Sadly, that is not the case.” Dick Durbin

This is your party, Barack. Did you ever speak out against the anti-American hate emenating from your side? No? Goodness!

The Washington Post detailed some of the lessons of this whole exchange, one of them being

The third, and most important lesson, is that Obama is ready and willing to fight Republicans over foreign policy and national security concerns.

If only he was willing to fight America’s enemies half as much as he is willing to fight fellow Americans.

Joe Gandleman at The Moderate Voice (I believe I missed where there was anything moderate about the website, which seems to be a cheerleader for Obama)

Obama turned the proverbial lemon (being attacked by Bush and being put on the defensive and having to answer) into lemonade (going after Bush by rattling off specific criticisms, using humor and sarcasm and tethering McCain tightly to Bush one after McCain made a major speech in which the Arizona Senator tried to inch himself away from the most unpopular President in modern polling history).

Amazingly, Joe misses the point that Bush never mentioned Obama or any other Democrat, yet, immediately assumes that the speech was about Obama and the Democrats. What does that say about the mindset of Democrats and what they believe foreign policy to be?

In response, the McCain campaign said in a statement, “It was remarkable to see Barack Obama’s hysterical diatribe in response to a speech in which his name wasn’t even mentioned. These are serious issues that deserve a serious debate, not the same tired partisan rants we heard today from Senator Obama.”

McCain further went on to say in a speech

Earlier today, Sen. Obama made a few remarks I would like to respond to. I welcome a debate about protecting America. No issue is more important. Sen. Obama claimed all I had to offer was the ‘naive and irresponsible belief’ that tough talk would cause Iran to give up its nuclear program. He should know better. I have some news for Sen. Obama: Talking, not even with soaring rhetoric, in unconditional meetings with the man who calls Israel a ‘stinking corpse’ and arms terrorists who kill Americans will not convince Iran to give up its nuclear program. It is reckless to suggest that unconditional meetings will advance our interests.

It would be a wonderful thing if we lived in a world where we don’t have enemies. But that is not the world we live in, and until Sen. Obama understands that reality, the American people have every reason to doubt whether he has the strength, judgment and determination to keep us safe.

Mark Steyn

It says something for Democrat touchiness that the minute a guy makes a generalized observation about folks who appease terrorists and dictators the Dems assume: Hey, they’re talking about me. Actually, he wasn’t – or, to be more precise, he wasn’t talking only about you. (snip)

President Reagan talked with the Soviets while pushing ahead with the deployment of Cruise and Pershing missiles in Europe. He spoke softly – after getting himself a bigger stick. Sen. Obama is proposing to reward a man who pledges to wipe Israel off the map with a presidential photo-op to which he will bring not even a twig. No wonder he’s so twitchy about it.

I’d tell Obama to Man Up!, but, he is a liberal, ya know, so it would be a waste of words.

Funny? Scary? You decide. (Full-size here.)

More Obama worship! This one IS scary.

Also commonly known as “groupthink” or “brainwashing.”

That’s funny, but the idea of Barack Obama as President isn’t funny. I got the following via email and it sums up neatly why Barack Obama is WRONG FOR AMERICA, and the agenda for which he’s using his “Jedi Mind Tricks.”

Policy wise, Obama will push us gleefully towards socialism, which cannot be good to the average blue collar worker, teacher or trucker, much less business owner or corporation. His policies will cause gas prices to skyrocket even higher and faster than they currently are. He is opposed to drilling for more oil. He is in favor of more regulation, and even thinks he is smart enough to determine the salaries of CEO’s.

On abortion he has a 100% National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) rating. He is in favor of partial birth abortion, supports transporting minors across state lines for abortions, and is against holding accountable doctors who fail to provide treatment for babies born live after botched abortions.

On taxes he wants to eliminate the Bush tax cuts and will be happy as a clam to raise them. He is so far out of touch with reality that he doesn’t even think “we the people” want our taxes reduced.

On crime, he is against stiffer penalties against gang members, supports needle exchanges and is soft on sex predators.

On health care, he is a Hillary clone, and wants to create universal health care, which is just another term for socialized medicine…which hasn’t worked anywhere its been tried.

On education he supports sex education for grade schoolers and thinks anyone with a B average or above should get free college.

On guns, Barack is so extreme he doesn’t even put his position up on his campaign website. He proclaims his support for the Second Amendment, but is working hard to turn America into a “gun free” zone, where self defense is outlawed. Naturally, he is against concealed weapons.

Most politicians would be sunk with friends like Barack’s.

His associations with his pals are amazing — Jeremiah Wright, his spiritual mentor thinks God should damn America. Weather Underground member Bill Ayers, now a college professor stomps on the American flag and declares he wished he would have set off more bombs.

Barack’s pal Frank Marshall Davis who he looked upon as “father” is an anti-Christian radical and member of the Communist Party USA, while his official campaign blogger’s work appeared in a socialist magazine and he had a communist flag at his home.

Tony Rezko, of course is still in trouble with the law. Code Pink founder Jodie Evans not only raised money for Barack, but also for Islamic radicals in Iraq.

Is this guy actually qualified to be President?

Of course not, in the traditional sense. He got educated, has no business experience, cut his teeth as a community activist, breezed through a stint in the Illinois state legislature, and spent two years as a U.S. Senator.

“Qualification” when it comes to politics is different than the real world. Qualified to run for office merely means that you have connections, you have a fundraising base and you have supporters. That’s it. Many of us don’t, nor do we necessarily have the desire. But he does, and he has it all in a major way.

Is he actually ready to be Commander in Chief, to be the leader of the free world, to be the true hope of those living under oppression? Well, if you put it that way, the answer is no. His solution to Iran, radical Islam and the terrorists running rampant in Iraq and Afghanistan is to sit down and talk with them. He doesn’t get it. They are done talking.

Barack is a liberal forged from the same molten fire deep within the same mountain as Hillary Clinton. And since he is, and since she is so prominent, you’d think the Democrats would want a Hillary/Barack ticket, and not Barack at the top of the heap. After all, that would be the safest bet.

But no, Democrats are jumping ship on Hillary and swimming over to the S.S. Obama. Why? Almost nothing can explain it. . . except one thing.

And I am telling you it is not the obvious. It is not Barack’s message of Hope and Change that has struck a chord. No, just about every Democrat has been selling that same old swill for years.

Everyone knows that “Hope” to a Democrat means more money from you going to the government.

Everyone also knows that “Change” to a Democrat means jettisoning the Free Enterprise system and exchanging it for socialism.

Remember that.

Jesus or Obama? (Take the test!)

“Bitter,” oppressed people cling to God; “enlightened” people cling to teh Obamessiah.

I’ve looked around at the blogs talking about this elitist crap, and found (as has everyone else who’s looked) a lot of apologetics saying “he speaks the truth.” We
