Yesterday the president and the McCain campaign tagged teamed Obama and called him a terrorist appeaser for suggesting we talk to Iran and or Hamas, saying this:

They’re the government; sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them, one way or another, and I understand why this administration and previous administrations had such antipathy towards Hamas because of their dedication to violence and the things that they not only espouse but practice, so…but it’s a new reality in the Middle East.

One problem for McCain, that’s a quote from McCain not Obama.

Now sit back and watch the media “appease” the McCain campaign by giving him an opportunity to parse and “clarify” and thus a total pass on being a complete pandering hypocrite.

The President (how it disgusts me to call him that) has just equated the peace/progressive/liberal/Democrat/Obama movement with Nazi sympathizers. Jews included.
Behold the shrinking, pathetic, desperate, little boy, king.

War + war speak + war thought + war mentality = perpetual war

RUMSFELD: That’s what I was just going to say. This President’s pretty much a victim of success. We haven’t had an attack in five years. The perception of the threat is so low in this society that it’s not surprising that the behavior pattern reflects a low threat assessment. The same thing’s in Europe, there’s a low threat perception. The correction for that, I suppose, is an attack.

Because in order to form a more perfect union of paranoia and conflict, any notion of peace must be “corrected”.

I haven’t been able to keep up with all things politics lately but what seems the most egregious scandal du jour is the Pentagon Propaganda Peddling that the press still won’t cover because basically they’d be doing an exposé on themselves for parading an endless stream (4,500 by some counts) of “analysts” that emerged from the spin room directly into the green rooms of every major media outlet. Man I gotta start using more punctuatuion. Anyway, there’s been ripe melons of pudding filled proof that are just to sweet not to taste…

Hi Thanks for sending this. Just fyi, probably wouldn’t put “softball” interview in writing. If that got out it would compromise jed and general casey.
