Q: Why would you negotiate with your enemies? ....A: Who else would I negotiate with?

Who said that? I thought somebody like Yitzhak Rabin responded in this way. I'm not sure -- I couldn't find the answer. Not much on Yitzhak either, other than he was a peacemaker and was assasinated.

Anywho....

I can't FUCKING believe that this intellectually retarded leader of ours actually said this:
Bush said this morning,“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. We have heard this foolish delusion before. 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."
and
An exasperated Biden skewered Bush over that in a conference call with reporters, calling the comments “pure politics,” “blatant,” “beneath the presidency,” “truly disgraceful,” “outrageous,” “disturbing,” “ridiculous hypocrisy” and “long-distance Swiftboating.” He even said Bush “oughta get a life.”
“For this president to go on the attack against Barack Obama,” Biden said. “It cannot go unanswered.” [Possible veep audition?]

All Three Pres. Candidates say Carter should not meet with Hamas officials

"Sen. Obama does not agree with President Carter's decision to go forward with this meeting because he does not support negotiations with Hamas until they renounce terrorism, recognize Israel's right to exist, and abide by past agreements," a spokesman for the Obama campaign said. "As president, Obama will negotiate directly with the head of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas."(politico.com)
So, answer me this......

Negotiate or Nuke 'em?

I'm sorry to be so blunt here, but how do you think that the majority of americans feel (really really deep down) about that question?

How do you think the sheeple would answer this question? A lot of people I know have said out loud (in a laughingly way of course) - "oh we should just nuke 'em all".

I really want to shake people.
