Bennett: Obama's reaction to Iran 'very disappointing'
Obama “needs to condemn what the government is doing,” conservative radio talk show host and CNN political contributor Bill Bennett said Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union.

“He needs to say it in no uncertain terms. This is very disappointing, as far as I’m concerned. This was the president to whom the whole world was looking. . . . This is a president about hope, he’s about the future. This is a guy who was a community organizer. He missed it. He missed the opportunity.”

This guy is totally clueless and I'm not sure why anyone cares what "Gamblin' Bill" thinks.
Donna Brazile just annoys me because she doesn't ever really challenge him.
I want Stephanie Miller, Randi Rhodes or Mike Malloy opposite him.
But if they did that, Bill might quit -- which is a good thing.

Oh...BTW
Bill is giving 3:1 odds that the protests fail.

3. He is giving odds about protests failing?
Then clearly he is hedging his bets and creating a justification to blame the failure on Obama. Its all manufactured right-wing crap.

Id rather see Obama have nothing to do with its success or failure

4. bombing Iran has an appeal to it for Bennett and Lieberman
from last year when Hillary and Obama were debating Iran.

BENNETT: Listen, I give her credit. She has found her…three things. She’s found her voice. He is very
much in the background now, it’s not this, you know, ventriloquial thing, it’s definitely her voice.

LIEBERMAN: That’s true.

BENNETT: And Joe, you know, this is my style. This is a girl who puts on her pearls, goes down, throws down a shot of liquor and bombs Iran, you know. This is…lookout Mrs. Bennett, this is my kind of girl.

LIEBERMAN: Hehehe, it does have an appeal to it.

5. Bill can't put the gambling addiction away, can he?
I'm sure he made a bet with his bookie in Vegas right before the show.

13. Anything short of a full-on invasion would disappoint Bill Bennett
He wants Obama to pave the way for a casino in Qom.

16. Golly Mr. Bennett: Why don't YOU run for president?
You seem to know a lot. Or at least you'd like everyone to think you know a lot. I can't understand why everyone wouldn't vote for Bill Bennett!

I'd give him 1500000:1.
I think that's what his debt was from gambling
