I scanned it, and thought he struck a pretty good balance. http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/06/04/egypt.obama.speech/index.html One statement that caught my eye Obama said that any nation, including Iran, "should have the right to access peaceful nuclear power if it complies with its responsibilities under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty." If "any nation" should have access to nuclear power, why don't we start building some more of those bad boys? |

Man, I had the most hilarious experience regarding this speech today. I was driving to Indy listening to the XM radio. Channel 166 is America-Right, and 167 is America-Left, so I was flipping back and forth. Both channels were talking about the speech, but you would have thought that Obama gave it in a foreign language the each commentator was trying to translate it in his or her own words. The best I can tell, Obama was basically trying to insult the jews, end global terrorism once and for all, convert all of America from Christianity to Islam, and end the worlds energy problems......with one speech. |

yep, and he is also kind to black people, so he's a gang banger, appointed a hispanic to the court, so he must carry a switch blade, and he likes Europe, so he must be gay. |

Wait wait wait. So are you saying that we don't believe he is a muslim terrorist now? Because we were so sure he was prior to the election.... (by "we" I don't mean you personally. I mean the people who put out all those rumors) |

"One statement that caught my eye Obama said that any nation, including Iran, "should have the right to access peaceful nuclear power if it complies with its responsibilities under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.""-obama via lars ive actually posted about this and i agree with this statement. if you are going to create a treaty and encourage all the nations to sign on, you cant in good faith discriminate against someone who has upheld that treaty. its a hypocritical stance. you either honor the treaty for all, or abolish it and let anybody do as they please unchecked. the NNPT is supposed to insure all signees abide by the same set of rules. iran gets vilified even though its a signee and has abided by the treaty, yet israel has refused to sign on and the US doesnt care. before we start talking further war in the middle east, lets make sure all parties are held to the same standards. i dont see israel letting inspectors in soon (or being forced to do so) even though they developed their program "illegally" in the eyes of the world body. |

If Iran really wanted nuclear power, we or some other nation, could have already given them or sold them the rods to use for power.........we tried that, they declined. It is not about nuclear power.......... |

I never heard any legitimate commentator call him a terrorist during the election, however he did purposely try to hide his Muslim background, which probably led to more suspicion. |
