Mika just indicated Pat Buchanan and Neville Chamberlain were tight buddies.  Held up two fingers together and said "He and Neville Chamberlain - like this"

Will Pat come back at her after the break?

Balance? We don't need no stinking balance!

This is what Mika is like without adult supervision.

Joe Biden agrees with the MSM the appeasement comment is an obvious description of Barack Obama.

♣ a seal - starve a Polar Bear

It's quite amusing to listen to the likes of the spittle drooling Matthews, Shuster and the rest of MSNBC's Obama worshipping hacks, who don't know much about history.

Memo to MSNBC: the actual policy of appeasing Hitler DID NOT begin and end with the Munich Agreement which shamefully recognized Hitler's right to the Sudetenland.

Appeasement of Hitler began in 1933 and ran thru to 1939, with Chamberlain being an integral part of all the meaningless "talks" and "diplomacy," to which Hitler had NO intent of ever being persuaded by.

He simply used that time to plot and build up his armed forces whilst breaking every treaty. It was what he planned all along, NO MATTER what France and England said, did, threatened, blustered or capitulated on.

Just like Iran is doing today.

The Munich agreement was simply the written CULMINATION of all that previous pointless activity, but hey... what the hell, it made the appeasers feel oh so good that they weren't like that horrible warmonger Churchill.

And hey ho -- so six million Jews were exterminated, the world was plunged into a world war which killed another 30 million...

Forget that -- the really really important thing really is to ensure a naive fool like Obama is protected by a spittle drooler and his audience, which knows even less than him. And that's saying something.

So it is perfectly analogous to Obama's idiotic idea of him, personally, as President, talking with Iran face to face. What an ignorant dumbkopf Obama truly is.

Well, he was, after all, a "community organizer," thus is perfectly trained to be a liberal appeaser.

Yes, as Matthews was vaguely aware yesterday, Chamberlain did sign an agreement with Hitler, but that was merely a codified act of appeasement that followed on from all those fruitless "talks."

Following years of "talks" and "diplomacy," the first appeasement by Chamberlain and others, was the Anschluss, (annexation) of Austria into Greater Germany by the Nazi regime on March 12, 1938.

And seeing Iran has been annexing parts of Lebanon through its proxies for years, there again is another perfect analogy.

So please, let’s have less of the self-satisfied grunts from leftists whose grasp of history is even less tenuous than Keith Olbermann's relationship with reality.

Vote 4 change. Vote 4 anything. See Jack & Mr Shy's first campaign ad for the ONLY viable 3rd party candidate.

Does Joe Biden, John Kerry, Barack Obama et al. even follow the events in Iran? Are they not aware, or do they deny, that Iran is participating in the insurgency in Iraq?

Are they not aware of, or are they simply ambivalent to, the President of Iran's comments regarding Jews and Israel? Do not recent events like the Six-Day War suggest that most Middle Eastern countries actually desire to "wipe Israel from the map"? But enough about "ancient history" let's look to what has happened just this past week.

The latest from the Mayor of Crazytown: Israel is an "evil" regime that would soon be "annihilated" (May 11th, 2008).

Hitler was not even as brazen as Ahmadenijad to announce to the world that he intended to exterminate Jews.

So what is so controversial about Bush comparing Ahmadenijad to Hitler? The atmosphere of appeasement in the 1930s, and the isolationist tendencies of the country at that time, draw a reasonable comparison with the times now.

Bush is rightly indicating that Iran's position signals danger, which will not go away by imagining the Iranian government is as interested in peace and coexistence as the Americans are.

Now Biden's on Morning Joe claiming the President is wrong to call attention to Obama's policy of appeasement.

  Wow... talk about overreaction.  The media is so unsure of their candidate that any perceived slight gets an instant overreaction.  The great unwashed masses most likely would not have heard Bush's speech and if they did they wouldn't have connected those statements to be a slam against obama.  Now they do, thanks to the media.

   The media will probably be doing a lot of this 'swat team' action because many of them thought that kerry did not answer back to the Swift Boat Veterans soon enough or forcefully enough.  They think voters were deceived by the Swift Boaters because of a weak response, not because they were believable.  The media is not about to let this happen again.

If there ever was a story created by the msm to advance a candidate or agenda, this has to rate right up there.  Bush's comment was accurate and general with no reference to Obama.  But even if it was, it still challenges a belief that Obama continues to express.  The msm, msnbc in particular, are trying to create a controversy and the public isn't buying it.  What the President said was obvious to everyone except the leftist lightweights they continue to bring on tv. 

On a side note, Jonathan Alter got spanked by the token conservative on Dan Abrams show last night and it was funny to see how angry he got after being embarrassed the way he was.

Sorry, double post.

The msm, as usual, is missing the mark on this one.  I believe most people, whether they favor Bush or not, agree with his statement.  I think most Americans are smart enough to understand that appeasement is a very dangerous strategy, especially when dealing with individuals who would not hesitate to lie and cheat to get their way.  Bush's statement was indeed very general and it is a stretch to say that he was aiming it at any one person, as opposed to the left overall.  In the end, though, so what if he was speaking specifically about Obama?  Is Obama above criticism?  Isn't it Bush's job to speak out when he sees dangerous philosophies being endorsed by candidates for the presidency? 

That is she is on a par with Olbermann, Shuster, Kos kiddies and the Huff & Puff crowd.

Actually, I want to thank the media for repeating that section of President Bush's speech and linking it to Obama every hour on the hour. The more people see that link, the more they'll realize what Obama is proposing and how his policies will effect the world. This MSM bashing of Bush’s speech going to have a BIG negative effect on Obama. All that current negativity may be directed AT President Bush, but it is being linked DIRECTLY with Obama and his policies! Heh. You can’t buy that type of campaign advertisement! That's for doing the work for us, MSM, and for free! I really appreciate it.
