[DDWW]

I think someone said it earlier, but Obama has a way of connecting with his audience in a way Bush couldn't. I don't think many people outside the U.S. actually believed Bush when he said many of these things.

I said this throughout Bush's Presidency. I don't think many USA folk really understand how badly Bush played outside of the USA. I've commented before that if Clinton (or Reagan - it's not a party-political thing) had taken the same decisions as Bush, and pursued the same policies, the USA would have had more support.

You can make it yourself! Cafepress doesn't fact-check, to my knowledge, so you can wear a shirt as divorced from reality as you like.

Dubya was one of the most inept presidents when it came to diplomacy we have ever seen.

In other words, the world is shallow and prejudicial.

mentioning the Holocaust and mentioning the misery the Palestinians have gone through, was NOT an attempt at moral equivelancy, IMHO.

i think he was just trying to say: "Both communities have suffered".

i think those who are reading more into this..are doing it for their own political reasons.

and btw, what is the ultimate meaning of Obama's speech today?

The days of the USA bending over for Israeli-right wing interests, are over.

The days of an unrelenting and unflinching American alliance with Israel, at the expense of our relations with the Arab and Muslim world, are over.

Things are gonna change.

The days of enabling are over. The days of tough love...have begun.

You mean S&M?

Cool!

 

[Undesired Walrus]

What does he mean "we"?

We as in a secular West.

 

[JihadJane]

... I liked that he mentioned that America doesn't wish to occupy countries, nor is America an Empire ...

Does he think we're idiots?

 

[Ziggurat]

Does he think we're idiots?

No, just you.

Am I, like, being drafted, man?

I think Christians are kinda silly, but they ain't the only ones.

I ain't goin' to war with 'em for that.

watch and see who laughs in 2 years. I bet you it won't be the right-wing fundy Israelis and Jews, who will be learning to accept giving up their BS dream of the Greater Israel.

Are you just now learning this?

 

[JihadJane]

It amazing how many apparently intelligent people can be hypnotized by this Bush-lite rubbish.

Various parts of the speech made me laugh out loud and brought to mind the phrase "The Audacity of Dope".

 

[Ziggurat]

Are you just now learning this?

Of course not. What do you take me for, a Ron Paul supporter?

 

[The Painter]

I'm getting dejavu. I could swear Bush said most of this before. Oh, that's right Obama is the Black Bush. I forgot. Hope and change. We can hope for change, 'cause this ain't it.

We as in a secular West.

Is there a secular East????? Just sayin'

 

[Thunder]

Obama is the Black Bush.

pathetic Truther rhetoric.
