StrangerThan -> Obama addresses the UN (9/21/2011 8:53:39 AM)
Like most speeches, it was well delivered. It also wandered quite a bit, and on the topic of Israel and Palestine, laid out little in real terms. He did frame the issue quite well though, and said nothing about previous stances regarding the pre-6 day war borders - what most like to call the 1967 borders. The only reaction I saw from the crowd was the Palestinian delegate shaking his head. He pissed all over Syria, but played nice with Bahrain. And then... he wandered. Overall, good speech, not much on meat. http://news.yahoo.com/obama-seeks-save-mideast-policy-u-n-debacle-141831692.html UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - President Barack Obama pressed Israel and the Palestinians on Wednesday to relaunch peace talks as he made a last-ditch attempt to avert a U.N. crisis over Palestinian statehood and pull his Middle East policy back from the brink of diplomatic disaster.

He droned on and on. The only notable part was his moral equivalency between terrorism and self defense and his kumbaya bullshit about Israeli's and Palestinian's wearing each others shoes. The only radical Muslim who would give a Jew his shoes is Richard Reid.

He did drone, that's for sure. Maybe the election in New York had him reconfiguring given he stayed away from 1967.

They just want to get on with their lives.

Face it, your fucking brain just has a region that can't hear a good speech by a liberal even if it was in the bus that ran the legs of your Barney's suit pants as you sit on some SoCal sidewalk, back propped up against the racquet club panhandling for your next tax cut.

I remember in 1980 sitting in my apartment in back bay watching bin laden on a 60 minutes piece being regaled as a savior of Afghanistan by Mike Wallace, while we carved up a slab of has that was stamped in gold with crossed aks and the inscription "Guns For Afghanistan" and on the other side stamped with a gold tiger and "Russia No".

Why are we still in the "U.N." when our government in Washington knows that The People want out of it? This is just another case of our govt. not listening to The People.

Though I've seen no proof or confirmation, I have a sneaking suspicion that, on one of his good days, he recognises his own name. [:D]
