Barack: I'm Not Playing

Remember how Barack Obama got owned by Hillary last week during the YouTube debates on CNN? The question was whether any of the candidates were open to meeting with Chavez, Ahmadinejad or Castro to move the peace process along with these leaders' respective nations. Obama said he already had an outfit planned for each encounter while Hillary said hell to the no, I ain't gonna be no propaganda puppet for no one.

Well Obama's singing a new tune now. And I like it. Today marks a turning point for the team Team Obama -- the candidate said he would absolutely use force to hunt terrorists down in Pakistan. Which is good, seeing as that's probably where Osama is hiding.


That said, yours truly isn't ever in favor of war, but desperate times do call for desperate measures. This tough talk doesn't mean Obama is going to win the election or that the Clinton camp is going to ask him to be Hill's running mate, but it's nice to see him put up a fight.

    No matter how much of an ignorant wretch it makes you look, just put up a fight.

  2. I've missed u, TGC.

    But I don't see why Obama sounds ignorant...I don't recall this administration exhausting all possible dialogue with Saddam.

    How genuine do you think Obama comes off that after he took a massive hit from his last set of comments about meeting with dictators around the world, he immediately begins some tough talk to counteract it? It's transparently a strategy to not look like a fool, not a genuine proposal for what he would actually do as president.
