For the first time in my life I'm proud of this president

FOXNews.com - Obama: Ahmadinejad's Sept. 11 Statements 'Hateful'

Obama slams Ineedadinnerjacket for his claim that 9/11 was an inside job. Obama's quote from the article:

"It was offensive. It was hateful -- and particularly for him to make the statement here in Manhattan, just a little north of Ground Zero, where families lost their loved ones, people of all faiths, all ethnicities who see this as the seminal tragedy of this generation," Obama said. "For him to make a statement like that was inexcusable."

I haven't discounted the fact that someone may have mucked with his teleprompter. But at least this one time, in this one place, if never before and never again, Obama got it right.

that should be reason enough to turn iran into a glass parking lot.

wars have started for much less.

And then just shrug, smile and say...

"It was an inside job."

Evidently Iwanastartajihad must have been out of the room for obama to make such a bold statement.

 

[INMIline]

Did "they" finally drop???

In his speech Thursday to the annual summit of world leaders, Ahmadinejad also raised the possibility that "some segments within the U.S. government" had orchestrated the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks in New York — a statement that prompted members of the American delegation to walk out in protest from the U.N. General Assembly.

Delegations from all 27 European Union nations followed the Americans out along with representatives from Australia, New Zealand, Canada and Costa Rica, an EU diplomat said.

I loved this part (bold). Even though we make think we are alone some times, it's obvious that we are NOT alone after all.

 

[dross]

So Achmidenijad finally said something that Obama thinks was inexcusable?

I guess threatening to wipe Israel off the map WAS excusable.

Iwanastartajihad said he was offended and insulted by Fox news during his interview with them when they called his remarks on 911 "insane". Asked if they would talk to their president like that.

Someone should have thrown a shoe at him!

 

[sj kahr k40]

If he quits I might be proud of him.

 

[jbombelli]

I'm not proud of him. He wasn't nearly rude enough, forceful enough or threatening enough to that POS to suit me.

And then just shrug, smile and say...

"It was an inside job."

and then put up a giant statue of Elvis at their ground zero.

While I'm surprised the President said this and I'm glad he showed some guts, for once, I just have to wonder if he really meant what he said or if this is just a political move to make him look strong on foreign policy issues. I heard on Rush Limbaugh today that the President's poll numbers were the lowest they have ever been.

Should have titled this thread... Prez didn't screw it up... THIS TIME.

You throw the word 'proud' around too easily.

No. Really, I don't.

First, It was a play on Michelle's words. Get out more.

Second, this is the first time he's done something I can be proud of. He's a limp-wristed p***y. For him to take a stand showed some stones. If even for a fleeting moment, he deserves some credit.

He'll go back to his sissy boy ways again in a day or so, so I'm sure this is not a new direction he'll take.

 

[pudly]

I have to agree with you, SemperFiUSMC. It is so out of character, I honestly wasn't sure what to make of it.

There's an election coming up, and a lot of people think he's been way too soft for way too long. Make of that as you will.

 

[wtfd661]

He may have said something that was correct (I also think someone had to have screwed with his TelePrompTer and he didn't know what he was saying), but he is still a giant DOUCHEBAG.

no lets put up a baptist church down the road from it.
