John Edwards, appearing on the Today Show, comments on Bush's comparison of Obama's comments to the "apppeasement of Hitler" stating, "It is beneath the President of the United States to make these kind of clearly political accusations when he is addressing the people of Israel on the 60th anniversary of Israel. It shouldn't have been done, particularly in combination with what has been an absolutely disasterous foreign policy."

Edwards said he's not interested in taking the Vice President position but will work with Obama's team during the campaign and his administration stating, "right now we've got to focus on getting Barack Obama elected as the President of the United
States."

1. They were a below a decent human being, let alone a president

3. Yes, truly despicable

With Bush having the lowest approval ratings of any President in the history of our country and his pattern of making embarrassing remarks, such as these, the Republicans would be wise to keep him under raps until after the election.

I think the American people would be fine with that too, they are tired of the Bush administration!

4. I think it is pretty clear that Edwards is either working for or already has a cabinet position

in an Obama White House

5. This entire administration has been below what one would expect from a President.

6. He's Right On

But with GWB's grandfather, Prescott having been involved with the financing of Hitler's agenda, who is really all that surprised by Dubya's comments?! http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2004/sep/25/usa.secondworldwar.

7. The Today Show

Make no mistake about it, Matt Lauer is a right-wing propagandist who tries to play "Gotcha Politics" with every Democrat that appears on the show. Pay attention and you will see a pattern that is VERY CLEAR!!!

8. And yet the right wing pundits and blogs and media call him a

liberal apologist
