In speaking before the Knesset, the Israeli legislature, Bush was told to attack attacked Obama by describing him as a Nazi appeaser. Only Bush would have the balls to use the Israeli parliament as a political prop.
Think Progress has the video.
In his speech, Bush said, “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.Notice how the boy king says "an American senator"... He of course doesn't bother to mention that of course that quote is attributed to a Republican Senator, William Borah (R) from Idaho. Not that I can find a single attributable source for this quote, well... except for Glenn Beck and I am sure he isn't full of shit.
The Obama campaign was aware of the attack.
This is an unprecedented political attack on foreign soil," Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs says on CNN. "It's, quite frankly, sad and astonishing that the president of the United States would politicize the 60th anniversary of Israel with a false political attack.For me it would be quite frankly astonishing if Bush didn't politicize the 60th anniversary of Israel. I am saddened that Israel let him.
249 days to go. Honestly, I think these next months will be some of the most dangerous under this administration as the frat boy comes to realize, more and more, that his days in the limelight are rapidly waning.
