Kevin James and Chris Matthews on Appeasement
Kevin James and Chris Matthews on Appeasement. Just goes to show that conservatives don't draw from history. They make stuff up and lack basic knowledge
Matthews:
"You don't understand there's a difference between talking to the enemy and appeasing. What Chamberlain did wrong, most people would say, is not talking to Hitler, but giving him half of Czechoslovakia in 1938. That's what he did wrong. Not talking to somebody. Appeasement is giving things away to the enemy."

Bush's "Obama Nazi Appeaser" remark offends Jews and Israel
'It is sad President Bush would use a speech to the Knesset on the 60th anniversary of Israel's independence to launch a false political attack,' Democrat Barack Obama accused President George W. Bush on Thursday of launching a "false political attack" with a comment about appeasing dictators. The Democratic presidential candidate interpreted the remark as a slam against him but the White House denied that the comment was in any way directed at Obama.
In a speech to Israel's Knesset, Bush said that "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 an obligation to call this what it is - the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."

But whatever the blatant utility of its timing, the Syrian-Israeli announcement prompted a rash of writings on the prospects of a Golan-Heights-for-peace deal..."the Golan Heights would turn into a radical spearhead against Israel" with forces amassing there "from Iran, Afghanistan and elsewhere" and "life in the north [of Israel] turn[ing] into an unbearable nightmare" of terror attacks.
Meanwhile the Bush administration was reported to be incensed at Israel with one official calling its announcement of the Syrian talks "a slap in the face." The administration was right, of course, to criticize Olmert's choosing as "peace partner" the thuggish Assad regime with its string of terror-assassinations in Lebanon, major facilitation of the Iraqi insurgency, and—seemingly most telling from Israel's standpoint—recent abortive nuclear ambitions. Lost, though, is the fact that since adopting the cause of Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah terror organization, also as an alleged peace partner for Israel—even though, for instance, it gives Palestinian kids the identical education as Hamas—the Bush administration has been a major encourager of Israel's own ongoing "peace" pathology of courting and rewarding terrorists and despots.
Of the various points made about the hypothetical Israeli-Syrian deal, the most resonant concerned the asymmetry entailed: whereas Israel would be giving up something very tangible, the strategic Heights, Syria—an example par excellence of the volatile, fractious Arab Middle East—would be giving promises, promises, easily trampled and forgotten. Those of an empirical cast of mind would look at other Israeli peace deals as precedents. The wind blowing from Egypt, for instance, has been particularly cold lately—and not only because Egyptian Sinai continues to serve as a weapons conduit from Iran to Hamas.
Earlier this month Egypt's Culture Minister Farouk Hosni said he would "burn Israeli books himself" if they were found in Egyptian libraries. Last week an amateur Egyptian soccer team in Rome, which included Egyptian diplomats from the embassy there, decided to boycott an international tournament because it turned out it would have to play an Israeli team. The latest is that a group of elderly Egyptian-born Jews from Israel have had to cancel a visit to Egypt because this sparked a "frenzy" in the Egyptian media.
And if one casts one's empirical gaze toward Jordan, with which Israel signed a peace treaty in 1994, the situation isn't much better. The Intelligence and Information Center gives examples of blood-curdling anti-Semitic material in the Jordanian press including the partly government-owned Al-Dustur. Israel didn't, at least, make any significant land concessions to Jordan, and as Bechor points out, "the Sinai Peninsula is so large that the situation there is always reversible.... Yet with Syria the situation will be different: from an empty buffer zone, the Golan Heights will turn into a crowded anti-Israel region for generations to come."
The basic problem—one that neither Olmert nor Bush has the guts to look at—is that the Arab Middle East remains intensely hostile to Israel. That means keeping Israel both viable and a formidable, valuable U.S. ally requires strengthening it and not turning its remaining strategic assets into a clearance sale for hostile parties. At this late date, it's a lesson still not learned.

George W. Bush 's grandfather was a real Nazi appeaser
Here's another audio clip from one of my favorite liberal talk show hosts, Mike Malloy on Nova M Radio http://www.novamradio.com/live/ Don't miss his show...I never do.
I guess the little shrub in the White House is the pot calling the kettle black. While George W. is comparing Obama to Nazi appeasers, not many of you know that his grandfather, Prescott Bush appeased Hitler by funding his rise to power.
This putrid son of bitch has the audacity to compare democrats to Nazi appeasers. Please someone get this Un-American war criminal out of the White House - legally and peacefully. Jesus Christ Almighty.
