What an amazing transition since…last night. Surely this is a man of consistency.

Obama repeatedly stressed the risk posed by Iran, as he suggested that danger has grown because of policies supported by McCain.

“Iran is a grave threat. It has an illicit nuclear program. It supports terrorism across the region and militias in Iraq. It threatens Israel’s existence. It denies the Holocaust,” he said. “The reason Iran is so much more powerful than it was a few years ago is because of the Bush-McCain policy of fighting in Iraq and refusing to pursue direct diplomacy with Iran. They’re the ones who have not dealt with Iran wisely.”

Ah, now I’ve been enlightened. The reason Iran is as powerful a terrorist regime dedicated to the destruction of Israel as it is, is simply because Bush didn’t do brunch with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. I’m sure if we had simply sat down and chatted it would’ve been so much better.
