Obama Recognizes Armenian Genocide

[crusader1492]

Who mentioned a comparison to Obama as Hitler? Oh, Godwin strikes again...

Thanks for that link...it's so true.

...If Obama is anything, he is smug. Insufferably smug and full of himself.

Does anyone else see the irony of Bell's statement?

How does he behave like a preacher?

Edit: nevermind. It just hit me on what you could've possibly meant, and I get it. But above that, he seems like a great option.

I've seen the interviews. I've read the letters. Truly, Obama is a man who realizes the evils of the world, and because of his diverse background, I'm really hoping that he realizes, BEYOND JUST TALKING THE TALK, what happened to the Armenians and how much hurt the denial costed us. My great grandmother died of depression because of the event, and a good number of my family tree was cut off. I'm going to be really upset if he lets it slip.

I think he doesn't talk any talk, other than rabble-rousing gibberish. I'm surprised an atheist can speak so approvingly of someone who behaves like a preacher.

I 2nd that - well said.

And there is more to Obama than just being right, and intelligent, and about the best thing (politically) for the country on the immediate horizon...and oh - he is not Bush (or Hitler for that matter - come now...anyone who would suggest such a thing is being well...juvenile..at best...)...and if you want bush in the White House then you can vote for Clinton.

1.5, like Obama, enjoys sophistry, enjoys talking at great length while saying nothing of substance, and, above all, enjoys his ability to control the masses (with the joy coming not from having the control, but from the sense of superiority due to the ease of obtaining the control). If Obama is anything, he is smug. Insufferably smug and full of himself.

This specious argument is a salient example of your unwavering detraction of anything that seems to be positive for Armenians. What possible problem can you have with the news of Obama's announcement, that you would use a Hitler comparrison?

You are truly a hateful malcontent whose major purpose here is to create friction.

Get a "f**ing" life and stop being such a petulent bastard.

You could make comparisons of Mother Teresa with Hitler, so what? Sometimes I think you have too much time on your hands. However, if you want to compare Obama to Hitler, then don't let me stop you. I would like to see how insane you can get.

Anyway, as far as Obama's candidacy is concerned, I don't think anyone here is holding their breath that he will follow through on his promises, but there is always hope...somthing you seem to be in short supply of.

If you think "I have a change" Obama is going to be good for anyone, then sad on you. And while a Hitler/Obama comparison would be revealing, this isn't the forum for it.

Hey, Hitler also recognised the Armenian genocide, does that mean Armenians should think of him as a great man?

Get some f**ing perspective and a sense of proportion.
