although mi vote fi Obama and will vote for him again, he is just a politican like all a dem, he is no savior and will do what it takes to win.
Do you think he can afford to upset the American Jews and the right now label him as someone to be afraid of?
Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.
Yes! ...dialogue suggests you have to meet the opposing side(s) on a plain that is the result of compromise. That suggests a certain amount of 'giving' by both sides...so there must be some 'old style politics'.
Hillary never said she would not engage others on the other side...and never lied about not 'doing' some old time politics...Obama did (suggested/acted as if he shall)! Obama is the 'practising liar' here!
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
He needs the jewish vote and he has to be proactive about it. Perhaps he remembers what happened to Jesse Jackson after he used a jewish racial slur while talking off the record to a black reporter.
The same type of thinking that created a problem cannot be used to solve the problem.
nothing new from you karl... you are so quick to wrong obama without understanding the principle of his argument... talking to a terrorist organization is totally different talking with leaders of countries at odds with america and their allies...

mdmex... hamas is a terrorist organization... that is fundamentally different from a country...
i think obama was referring to open dialogue with countries that are considered america's enemies...
Right you are Missa Baddaz. I guess some people would not have any problem if they were to see Obama sit and have dialogue with Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.

ok, hamas has the majority in the palestinian parliament... that does not take away from the fact it is a terrorist organization that has stated the ONLY resolution to the israeli/palestinian conflict is the destruction of israel and the establishment of palestinian state where israel now exist... what is the probability of that happening...
if there is an exception to obama meeting with enemies, this is clearly one... the palestinian/israeli situation requires skilled navigation...
we cannot hang onto every word of any politician (obama included) as if we have a utopian existence... obama's principle is sound... however, there are exceptions that will require a modified approach...
