McCain has not waivered in his stance at all! You Obama supporters are so fanatical for your candidate that whoever runs against him is wrong no matter what. This type of attitude is what turns off so many Hillary supporters, and it's what's going to ruin Obama's chances of being President. It's ok to have differing opinions, but try to know what you're talking about first. And for the record, if McCain is so much like Bush then why are the conservatives hesitant to back him?! It's because he's closer to the center/indpendent type of politics then to the right. He's not like another Bush, and the more you say he is, the more you prove that you haven't a clue what you're talking about. Are you people serious? McCain has not waivered in his stance at all!

Obama 1st said in one of the debates he would meet with these countries as president without conditions. Hillary said she would meet them like most presidents have said after many low level meetings, and higher level ones. If after there is significant progress Hillary would then meet these presidents and states as long as it could not be used as propaganda. Obama never said that until in later debates he changed or if you prefer modified his position. He started to say he would meet these rogue states after alot of preperation. So he is either lying on his original view, or he has modified it to reflect Hillary's stance but is just wording it differently. He lies. Also I read the interview on McCain saying he would have talks with hammas but when you read the complete interview Obama and his campaign distorted McCains words as to not use the complete interview showing McCain is consistant on his stance. It shows Obama and his campaign LIED I am a Hillary supporter.

And the previous comments he made were ambiguous, that's why the reporter asked the follow up about regular diplomatic relations. What I find strange about all of this is how W's "Those who talk, appease" comments run in the face of his father's successes in dealing with the Soviet Union and the CIS. Getting a unified Germany into NATO was a huge coup, and so was organizing a unified Post-Cold War response to Saddam Hussein, and neither would have been possible without GHWB's soft-peddling diplomacy.

Bush, Rove, Huckabee and their ilk are simply serving to bring Democrats together. Even though I am an Obama supporter, watching Hillary leap to his defense yesterday after Bush's outrageous comments showed me that we WILL be united behind one candidate, and before the convention. So, keep it up, you pathetic idiots! I don't think the Republicans could have done us a bigger favor if they had planned it.

He is too high and mighty and he outrageously oversimplifies broad and complex situations which have tons of variables. We all know better. Obama and his presidential team will not fly by the seat of their pants. They will visit and revisit the situation and reach the right conclusions. McCain and Bush, how stupid do you think Americans are? Your demeanor is so anger-ridden. Who cares what McCain says?

McCain's response doesn't take a thing away from his original response in Ruben's tape. The issue is hypocracy not policy. Eight years ago McCain would have been above this, but now he is preventing himself from growing any base beyond the 25% Bush loyalists. Time to start saluting President Obama.

Thank you president Bush for being such a jerk and starting something dirty to talk about. Negative,negative, negative.

I find it sad to see someone like Huckabees The republican needs to go on CNN and tell the people the world. That his joke about Barrack Oboma getting shot at the NRA Convention send the wrong message out to our College people as well as the young people. We have a high crime rate in the United states. If he want to do something good help fix our housing problems, our Gas problems and our food problems we have here in America. I have never in my Life time see someone Like Huckabee that will get away with such words on tv. I also Have to get you to CNN: You are very good reports, However to set and take what he said as a joke will and do not set with the rest of the world. It is time for change, As a Soldier the Va, the wway we go to war has been very much the wrong way. No were to take shows the Va, station are still very unclean. The Va do not take care of soldier retuning home. Homeless Vets, nor people on our America Streets are not good.
