Just the other day the Messiah said he favors diplomacy with Hezbollah and he's called for engagement with Iran and Syria in the past. So what the fuck is he talking about?
WASHINGTON (AP) - Democrat Barack Obama accused President Bush on Thursday of launching a "false political attack" with a comment about appeasing dictators.
The Democratic presidential candidate interpreted the remark as a slam against him but the White House denied that the comment was in any way directed at Obama.
In a speech to Israel's Knesset, Bush said that "some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along ... We have an obligation to call this what it is - the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."
Responding with a statement, the Obama campaign seized on Bush's remarks even as it was unclear to whom Bush was referring.
"It is sad that President Bush would use a speech to the Knesset on the 6Oth anniversary of Israel's independence to launch a false political attack," Obama said in the statement. "George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists, and the president's extraordinary politicization of foreign policy and the politics of fear do nothing to secure the American people or our stalwart ally Israel."

Guilty conscience?
Though Bush is propping up Fatah so Bush is hypocritical in his statement anyway.
