The Kissinger Factor

September 27, 2008

In case you missed it, I was twittering last night instead of blogging.  http://twitter.com/lauraelizabethm

Michelle Malkin liveblogged last night’s debate and covered one of the pressing issues the candidate’s spent quite some time sparring on:

10:15pm Eastern. McCain attacks Obama’s pledge to meet tyrants without preconditions.

Obama blusters on his preconditions/preparations line.

10:18pm Eastern. McCain is strong on North Korea.

Obama cites Kissinger.

McCain comes back: He’s known Kissinger for 30 years. Obama is parsing words.

Since that was a big argument is last night’s debate…who really had it right?  McCain or Obama?  The Weekly Standard found out from Kissinger himself:

Henry Kissinger believes Barack Obama misstated his views on diplomacy with US adversaries and is not happy about being mischaracterized. He says: “Senator McCain is right. I would not recommend the next President of the United States engage in talks with Iran at the Presidential level. My views on this issue are entirely compatible with the views of my friend Senator John McCain. We do not agree on everything, but we do agree that any negotiations with Iran must be geared to reality.”

Sorry Barry, guess you WERE wrong.
