Obama made a good point about talking to our enemies. You have to be ignorant to think that anything can be done by ignoring people.

but talking is not the same as acquiescence. It is also talking to level a finger at them and say "j'accuse."

We must talk to our enemies, all of them. Home, abroad. Does anyone speak Arabic? Maybe DU should have language lessons?

6. Bush people are talking with Iran this week
after conceding talks with Syria. If their strategy is to let good advice sit for a year or two, then perhaps the war will draw down in '08.
