Obama accuses Bush of a "false political attack"

Speaking before the Israeli Knesset on the 60th anniversary of the founding of the state of Israel, Bush said anyone who thinks that talking with terrorists will change their hearts and minds are under a “foolish delusion.”

“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 heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: ‘Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided.’ We have an obligation to call this what it is — the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history,” President Bush said.

While President Bush did not mention Obama or anyone else by name, “aggressive personal diplomacy” with Iran is policy position proposed by Obama to get that country’s support for insurgency in Iraq and its nuclear programs to end.

Obama accused Bush of a “false political attack” and said the president’s foreign policy has failed to secure the U.S. or Israel.

The White House denied that Obama was the target in Bush's remarks. “I understand when you are running for office sometimes you think the world revolves around you. That is not always true and it is not true in this case. The president is president regardless of an election cycle and he is going to be president of the United States through January 20, 2009,” White House Press Secretary Dana Perino said.


Meanwhile, Democrat losers such as Tom Daschle and John Kerry complained about President Bush's remarks.

Bush was only telling the truth that appeasement throughout history has never worked and only led to tragic consequences. Liberals from British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain to former President Jimmy Carter, noted appeasers, come immediately to mind.

The more the truth is told about the Democrat appeasers, the louder they whine.
