Lounge of Tomorrow - The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

Response from Obama's campaign. I find this to be an excellent response and spot on target. Too bad no one wants to hear it.

This is surprising...

Quote:

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday the Bush administration is waging a "phony war" on terrorism, warning that the country is losing ground against the kind of Islamic radicals who attacked the country on Sept. 11, 2001.
A more effective approach, said Gingrich, would begin with a national energy strategy aimed at weaning the country from its reliance on imported oil and some of the regimes that petro-dollars support.
"None of you should believe we are winning this war. There is no evidence that we are winning this war," the ex-Georgian told a group of about 300 students attending a conference for collegiate conservatives.

I happen to disagree with a lot of it.

He didn't say he wouldn't use nukes specifically against Pakistan, he said he wouldn't ever use nukes period.

He immediately began to modify his statement about meeting with leaders of "rogue states", and said that he meant they would have high level meetings in which certain conditions would have to be met prior to the President meeting with them.

You may subscribe to what he has to offer. I don't. I see this simply as spin trying to modify what he said because the things he said weren't very smart.
Believe me, I take no pleasure agreeing with Hillary.
