Obama Taking No Prisoners

Another journalist proves that Journalism School is not necessarily an institutions of higher learning. This from First Read, MSNBC.com:

Giuliani went after Obama Tuesday, criticizing Obama's plans to meet with the leaders of rogue nations without preconditions. Giuliani, speaking to the Republican Jewish Coalition, took issue with Obama's claims that meeting with leaders like Hugo Chavez is akin to Ronald Reagan's meetings with the Soviet Union in the 1980s.

"I say this most respectfully, you're not Ronald Reagan," Giuliani said, adding the Reagan called the Soviets the "evil empire" and pointed intermediate range missiles at them before calling for negotiations. "He made sure this country was negotiating from strength.”

Where to start with this pile of shit? Obama doesn't have "plans" to meet with any rogue leaders. He answered affirmatively to a hypothetical question during the You Tube debate. Obama left the door open to talk to any foreign leader. Jesus H. Christ .. why is that so difficult to grasp? He does NOT have plans. He would consider it part of his Foreign Policy to talk to Foreign Heads of State.

Here's the Obama Campaign response to Rudy:

While Rudy Giuliani and Hillary Clinton do not think we should engage in the type of strong diplomacy practiced by Ronald Reagan and John Kennedy, Obama does. And given the hefty fee that Hugo Chavez's oil company paid Rudy Giuliani's firm, he apparently thinks we shouldn't talk to Chavez, but it's fine to take his money.

Fuck me to tears, I believe that's called a twofer.
