Obama pooh-poohs danger from 'tiny' Iran

[HAL 9000 96]

Well when it comes to making a buck even Commies are our friends.

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Absolutely.

But at the same time it seems as though there's always got to be an enemy to thumb our collective noses at.

[HAL 9000 96]

Someday they'll tire of looking for new enemies to kill in the name of loving freedom.

*Yawn*

Y'all know the election isn't for several months yet, right? Cuz all of these stupid-arsed topics posted at once would make ya think the election was tomorrow.

Gonna be fun calling Rabies control, too...

And strangely noone's putting up a slew of McCain articles.

Why I wonder... It sure as #### isn't because there's no material.

There have been plenty of them, just not tonight.

Leading Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama pooh-poohed the idea that Iran or any of a few other "tiny" nations around the world offer a serious potential threat to the United States or the free world.

"Iran, Cuba, Venezuela? These countries are tiny compared to the Soviet Union. They don't pose any serious threat to us," he told a crowd at a campaign stop over the weekend, prompting the probable Republican opponent for the White House to respond that Iran already is attacking the U.S.

how quickly he forgets history with iran......

And yet, this pales in comparison to the nuclear warheads the USSR was capable of delivering. Perspective, folks.

But I understand that the GOP wants to run on a platform of fear yet again. Which is good. It'll ensure Obama's win in November.

Has he indicated anywhere that he believes it does? Historical context and perspective is what this is all about. Not whether or not the USSR still exists. That said, it was McSame, actually, that wasn't aware that Czechoslovakia no longer exists.

Sometimes I don't understand GaryC's view about Obama. If you don't like him, that's fine. But you need to know that keeping your enemey away from you It won't solve anything. US kept Cuba isolated. Does it solve anything? No. Republicans are negotiating with North Korea why not Iran. Is it because Iran is an Islamic country? Or Is it because Iran denounces Israel as a country and to be wiped out of the map? I support Obama's foreign policy. We are one world, and the super power needs to be a leader. The leader of the super power needs to talk and let know those rebels that we are not going to give you chance to destroy the peace in the world.

So bringing up the examples of appeasement in history is germane then?

Come off it. If Obama had said, "Kim Il Jung is no Hitler," could we assume from that he believes Hitler is still alive?
