Is he nuts?  He's not even in the same leauge a Kennedy or Ronbo!  He'll think twice about that statement when Chavez or Iran decide to screw with oil production or Iran rolls out a nuke!

The problem is that this fool won't pay them any attention until it is too late and things are too far out of hand. If he truly thinks that they are "not a serious problem", he wont even put them on the radar let alone make them the top priority that they need to be.

Just one more example of why Obama himself IS a SERIOUS THREAT to our Country.

UPDATE: Obama responds to critics about his comments about Iran "not being a serious threat":

“The Soviet Union had the ability to destroy the world several times over, had satellites spanning the globe, had huge masses of conventional military power, all directed at destroying us,” he said. “So, I’ve made it clear for years that the threat from Iran is grave. But what I’ve said is that we should not just talk to our friends. We should be willing to engage our enemies as well. That’s what diplomacy is all about.”

    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.”

Yeah, I guess he was taken out of context??? NOT!

McCain/Bush policy?  How about "No policy whatsoever" during the "90s.  Clinton and company set us up for this during the 1990s.  Trust me I know...he was my Commander-in-Chief for 8 gruling years

This should belie some fears here stated on other threads about Obama's inevitability.  The man is inexperienced and foolhardy.  He will have the die hard leftist vote and hello McGovern part II.  There is so much video ammo for TV this fall it is downright silly.

P.S. Tell Ron J to vote Libertarian ;D

Iran has been trying to sell their brand of Islam for a long, long time.  We need a president that will continue to fight the war with Islamic-terror … and Obama is not the man to do this. 

Interesting that Hamas (who is funded by Iran) has phone banks set up in Gaza to call Americans and urge them to vote for Obama.
