Appeasement and the NYT

New York Times: President Bush has really touched a nerve with his attack on appeasement, the Liberal New York Times states the following on the polices of the Bush Administration, " Those failed policies are one reason we yearn for the coming change of administration and for the next president to reject Mr. Bush’s bullheadedness. " This from the paper that covered up for a mass murder in the shape of Stalin, the same paper that has released the national security secrets of the United States. And worse its losing money.

Sorensen

New York Times: A profile of Theodore Sorensen, Kennedy Adviser and Speechwriter. Read of the Day.

Foreign Policy

Fox News: Reports that the Republicans are going after Obama and his statement that he would meet the leaders of Iran, Syria, Cuba and North Korea without conditions. The reaction of Obama Camp is just odd, they think they are still fighting a Primary against Hillary Clinton, the voters in the Primaries are off based Liberal, the rest of the country is not!! Advice to McCain Campaign, ask the Reagan Library to borrow their political commercials from the 1984 Campaign, the ones with the bears, new narration, replace the USSR with Iran and few shots of the President of Iran of stating that he wants to destroy Israel. Make Obama to the left of Mondale. Democrats smell the coffee, its the general now, do you want to win?


Update:
Lets recall that 3am ad by Hillary Clinton was very effective.

Hillary Clinton and the Exit ?

US News and World Report: Looks at what it will take for Clinton to get out of the race and her future in the Democratic Party and National Politics.

Obama Surrogates

Have been watching the Obama surrogates on the old goggle box, they are getting their knickers in the twist trying not to look like appeasers, its not working. If Obama wants to be POTUS, he is going to have to find a away to dump his Liberal Polices or he is heading for Walter Mondale defeat. A President of the United States of America can not shake hands with the President of Iran, a man that wants to destroy Israel. The point of conditions is to avoid such embarrassing pics. Advice to Obama, do you want to win the Presidency, or win a popularity contest in Hollywood, find a way to ditch your Liberal Foreign Policy or you wont win its that simple.

Obama and Appeasement

Fox News: Reports that Senator McCain is attacking Obama for his Foreign Policy ideas, seen by Appeasement by some. It can be argued that this row helps and hurts Obama, on the positive, McCain is seen as in the same boat as Bush, Bush has very low approval ratings, on the other hand this can hurt Obama. Lets look at the JFK/Obama debate JFK was war hero, Obama has never served, JFK had served in the House and the Senate, JFK had a tough fight for the Senate seat, Obama had a walk in, JFK was tough when it came to Foreign Policy, Obama is being defined as weak. Iran and Cuba, Obama wants to talk, JFK wanted to invaded Cuba. The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962. Obama can not be seen as to much of a dove or he wont get elected.
