Talk about the pot calling the kettle black! The story below is all about hack partisans going berserk over comments that have nothing to do with their far left savior Obama. Yet when the shoe fits so perfectly, they felt a deep and innate need to go crazy and attack-attack-attack.
If Obama and his far left pals believe those words were describing him, what does that say about Obama and his views? Apparently Obama feels that shoe fits perfectly.
Further, this has been an attempt by the Obama campaign to gin up the the feelings and mad dog anger of his way lefty supporters. When one whips up the base it will drive more contributions. It looks like it worked with the extremists in Congress and well as the anarchists inside the Dem party. However the vast American moderate middle did not bite. Oh well, good try.
Finally there is the pot calling the kettle black aspect of this story. Having San Fran Nan Pelosi attempting to lecture anyone on the subject of the "dignity of office" is flat laughable. She and her Senate sidekick Reid have done nothing but insult the Office of the President of the United States since gaining their positions in 2007. Their ongoing vile and undignified commentary is a matter of record. Ms. Pelosi has no room to speak on the subject.
It is fascinating and entertaining that the far left goes absolutely beserk if they think, for a nanosecond, that they are being criticized or slighted in any way. Apparently they are the incarnation of the political metro sexual: so sensitive that they lack the self-confidence to understand what is actually being said and about whom it is directed.
Pelosi: Bush comments 'beneath the dignity of the office'
Democratic House leaders are calling out President Bush for a speech in Israel in which he seemed to suggest that Sen. Barack Obama wants the United States to "negotiate with terrorists."
In his speech, Bush said: “Some seem to believe we should negotiate with terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along."
The White House insists that Bush was "referring to a wide range of people, not any single person." But Obama's campaign says it appeared to be a swipe at him, and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Thursday that Bush's remarks were "beneath the dignity of the office of the president and unworthy of our representation" at the celebration of Israel's 60th anniversary.
Referring to Sen. John McCain, Pelosi said: "I would hope that any serious person that aspires to lead the country, would disassociate themselves from those comments.”
As Pelosi was speaking, House Democratic Caucus Chairman Rahm Emanuel issued a statement in which he said: "The tradition has always been that when a U.S. president is overseas, partisan politics stops at the water's edge. President Bush has now taken that principle and turned it on its head: for this White House, partisan politics now begins at the water’s edge, no matter the seriousness and gravity of the occasion. Does the president have no shame?”

Judge Bob-
And it is one President delivering a message to another. Obama is not on that level, hard as he is trying.
