		<description>Personallyy I don&#039;t careabout Obama not saying jack. What I care about is the narcissistic need to always take credit for things he has nothing to do with. If he&#039;s not going to put skin in the game then he needs to shut the hell up about his Uninspirationa speach in Cairo. Seem like it would bother you that everything Obama does is about obama, my question is what happens when what makes him feel all tingly and get&#039;s him recognize is in direct contridiction for w hat good for him? Nobody wants Obama to fight any one, I just want the credit seeking coward off my damn tv.  Bill Clinton set mostly quiet while Rowanda went up in flames. I don&#039;t complain about that, he was a great president. But he also didn&#039;t try to get credit for some unhistoric speach he made nor did he invite the very perople who was slaughtering people to white house for a barbecue. every one understands the differences between the two parties, and their approach on foreign affairs. yes repubublicans are going to want to show strength in the face of tyranny and Dems keep their mouth shut and watch carefully. But this petuenlent,bratty, wishy wash behavior on Obama administration has gotten on my last nervrve shut up about it, I just want him to go and distroy another industry for God sake and get the hell of my tv. maybe if a few more of you loose your jobs you won&#039;t be so willing to kiss his ass.</description>

Didn&#039; he use the same yes we can(burn chrisitians in their churches) matraer if he is going to try and take credit for that too?

		<description>Actually i was talking about the notion that Bush cheated in the national election and there was&#039;t much difference between him and Gores platform. We&#039;ve had serveral incidents in the past few years where elections have been called into question. Doesn&#039;t stop us from rising up even if their is no visible diffeence in the candidates. IT&#039;s not bout the candidate it&#039;s about not being listened to.</description>

		<description>You left off the suffix &quot;head&quot; in your moniker, there, bone. Your rubbish, like all other bot rubbish, consists of unknown facts, composition/division fallacies, equivocation, and stacking the deck.  When do you start your junior year in high school?</description>

		<description>What exactly is Obama suppose to be saying that he has not already said? 

All you nuts who want some kind of stronger response for the U.S., including McCain, are not really saying what Obama must say or do? There are no positives from a &quot;tear down this wall&quot; type speech and potentially only negatives. It would do absolutely nothing. The entire planet is quite aware of which direction the U.S. wants Iran to go.  It would only make some neocons feel better about themselves.

Every true Iranian expert, who is actually Iranian, says the U.S. should stay out of this? It is political suicide for any politician who gets in in Iran to be viewed as having got in with the help of the U.S. That politician would spend the next year or two defending himself as a U.S. lacky. It would be like if at the height of the cold war it was found out that one of the reasons Reagan got elected was because of the support of the Soviets.

Only people who are saying that Obama should say or do more are just trying to score very cheap political points. They are the Neocons (and McCain is one of the biggest Neocons) who&#039;s ideas have been disastrous for this country.

And it could very well be the case that Obama first interview that was with an arab network, his initial speech to Iranians (on March 20th --  http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/mar/20/barack-obama-video-iran) and the his Cairo speech helped to set a new tone that embolden the Iranian protestors. How do you know it did not? There have been many reports in the Arab press, including reaction from Iranians, that was very positive about Obama new outreach. So far Obama&#039;s strategy on Iran has been absolutely brilliant. It pushes the ball down the field. I have no doubt that whatever happens, Obama will continue to push the ball down the field, to promote democracy and negotiate the nuclear issue. He is just taking a different approach then these nutball neocons, who want nothing but war.</description>

		<description>Well, to a typical Iranian, a rat&#039;s @$$ might buy the transcript of the speech. I&#039;m sure they would rather have the rat&#039;s @$$ though.</description>

		<description>Watch Obama... Next time he speaks. Watch him use the word &quot;we&quot; then in the same sentence about the same subject using the word &quot;I&quot; very interesting. 

In the world I live in, its always safe to have 2 different answers on tape.</description>

		<description>The more Obama supports the Iranian protestors, the less legitimacy those protesters will have in Iran.  Obviously Iran is desperate to link the protesters to the US; why would Obama want to indulge them.  That was one thing the Bush administration got consistently wrong; every time they called Iran evil, they bolstered support for Ahmadinijad.</description>

		<description>&quot;Obama&#039;s intelligent speech in Cairo has had a big impact in the Muslim world, and it is obvious that it is his presence in the White House – far more than any BBC broadcast – that is giving hope to the demonstrators in Tehran...I do not believe it could possibly have happened had John McCain been elected...Who knows whether [the Iranian protestors] will succeed, but we can safely say that the BBC and Barack Obama have done more to change Iran than Fox News and George W Bush.&quot;
