Why is there no progress in the mideast?

Look no further than George W., who distinguished the reign-of-error of his administration by likening fellow Americans to Nazi sympathizers.

That's right, the way to peace is to liken Americans to sympathizers and call Arabs Nazis.

DOES JOHN McCAIN THINK THAT ARABS ARE NAZIS?

I think that might cause some backlash among the votes and campaign contributions that McCain is so desperately pandering to get in Florida.

The McCain-Leiberman response to this will be key.

"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," said Bush, in what White House aides privately acknowledged was a reference to calls by Obama and other Democrats for the U.S. president to sit down for talks with leaders like Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

"We have heard this foolish delusion before," Bush said in remarks to the Israeli Knesset. "As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American Senator declared: 'Lord, if only I could have talked to Hitler, all of this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is -- the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."


Bush is still as dumb as he was when he left Texas.

I hate to say such a thing, and I even cringed at Oberman's tirade last night, under a sort-of Molly Ivins banner of, "Shucks, it's just "W", what'd you expect?". But honestly, would you even consider using Nazi metaphor in a speech before the Knesset?
