Talking to our enemies - History Lesson for Obama
Obama said that he trusted Americans “to understand that it is not weakness, but wisdom to talk not just to our friends, but to our enemies, like Roosevelt did, and Kennedy did, and Truman did.“
But the truth is that FDR never spoke to the head of Nazi Germany, Adolf Hitler; the head of fascist Italy, Benito Mussolini, or the head of militarist Japan, Hideki Tojo. The president’s only policy, “was unconditional surrender.”
I have yet to hear most journalists or pundits remind Obama that the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, even as their diplomats were on American soil to “talk peace.” As Pearl Harbor burned, our men and women died and America wept. But President Harry S. Truman took note and did not forget. He knew the meaning of “Peace through Strength.”

You make an excellent point Audacity. It is unbelievable how the “mainstream media” (all liberals) think we are all idiots. The media has been to soft on Obama and has clearly covered up for him on things he has said. Thank you for the article Audacity.
Letter sent to DNC and Charlie Rangel concerning the Larry Sinclear story on YouTube.
I find it strange how the media (CNN, MSNBC and NBC) have yet to report on the Larry Sinclear story exposing Obama’s link to the Trinity Of Hope choir director death Donald Young; his gay lover. On May 17, 2008, the CPD may issue a subpoena for Rev. Wright an Obama’s telephone records. Larry Sinclear is credible. I suspect the Democratic Party is fully aware of Obama’s past involvements and have chosen to ignore the findings due to a massive embarrassment for leaving someone who helped everyone (Clintons). The republican media is waiting for Obama to become the nominee before they (300,000 million dollars spent) reveal this story to the American people. The Obama camp is using any means necessary to keep it quiet. Your office had better wake up before it is too late and we are stuck with this dishonest man! What the Obama campaign has done is to try and quiet Larry by accusing him of being a fluke and quiet Hillary by accusing her of being a racist; she can not say anything. It is well known that Senator Obama is a past addict. They will not obtain certain laws from the Clintons so they have resulted in quieting the most powerful candidate who will help everyone; the DNC is allowing this to take place with so much at risk. Hillary is in their way of getting things past. In their eyes Obama is their last hope. We have no time for these types of agenda’s we are at war, people have no health care nor do they have jobs! Hillary is the best for our country.
The Larry Sinclear story will damage the Obama campaign in essence guarantee another 4 year Republican term. If they (Republicans)can get him (Obama) past Hillary this will guarantee the election for them. I will move forward to change to and independent; vote for McCain if Obama is given this nomination. The republicans are hoping when voting time comes, it will be too late for real CHANGE “Hillary.” The republicans are waiting; everytime Larry Sinclear makes one step the Obama campaign throws lies out about him. This man has filed a lawsuit for defamation of character and I support Larry Sinclear. Will you help us expose the truth; Larry Sinclair is credible….
Nice writing style. I look forward to reading more in the future.
