This morning George W. Bush gave a speech stating that negotiating with terrorists regimes or organizations is tantamount to the appeasement of Adolf Hitler before World War II.

He's right.

Barack Obama, however seems to think differently, stating that he would talk with Ahmadinejad without preconditions. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is charismatic, intelligent and also, a madman and something tells me, especially after his visit to Columbia University that speaking with him directly about anything would be counter productive at best.

Now the Democrats have come out in force, excoriating the president for making this statement. Usually when the Democrats excoriate the president, he means that he hit a home run.

Barack Obama is the Neville Chamberlain of our time.
