Obama Blames U.S. for Stronger Iran

Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama on Friday blamed Bush administration failings in Iraq for strengthening the strategic position of Iran, which he says must be stopped from acquiring nuclear weapons.

Illinois senator said that means "direct engagement" with Iran similar to the meetings with the Soviet Union at the height of the Cold War.

"A consequence of the Administration's failed strategy in Iraq has been to strengthen Iran's strategic position; reduce U.S. credibility and influence in the region; and place Israel and other nations friendly to the United States in greater peril," according to a text of a speech Obama delivered to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Barack!!!! Keep it up!!! you are SOOOOOO right on this that we are guilty of making Iran Stronger. Of course, you say it's because of Iraq strategy? Have you ever thought that it might be because the left and the liberals are constantly undercutting our military forces, making us appear to be weak, and thus an opponent to be reviled and spit upon rather than one to be feared?

Have you EVER done any study of the Arab psyche? Maybe you ought to. Maybe Bush should have five or six years ago, but you and the rest of your left wing friends have screwed up our soldiers more than any mistakes that Bush's administration ever could have.
