Well…not expecting it and in any case I thik we have all dwelled on this one enough. Off to muck up some other thread.

Oh yeah. Sorry, chapoutier. Michelle probably should correct the misleading implication.

corkie,

What are you talking about? What do you think that big honking block quote in the middle of that link is? You are crazy if you think that is not what she was quoting.

I would completely agree with your point except that Michelle’s link doesn’t quote Obama at all.

However, it does provide another link to an Obama quote so I certainly understand what you’re saying, but I think your claims are a bit too aggressive.

Begining of the end? Obama international love fest over…

I’m not saying that the international love fest for Obama is over, just that if the end was going to begin somewhere, it was probably going to start in Iran.
Some hardline demonstrators in Tehran got together in front of the Swiss Embassy early t…

My apologies in belaboring the empathy topic on a thread hardly anyone’s concerned with anymore, but I kinda agree with you, chapoutier. Obama said fairly clearly in the quote that the terrorists are lacking in empathy for the misery they create, but he also said we need to “understand” the terrorists’ mindset, which in itself is bordering on empathy. Did Obama say we need to feel sympathy for terrorists? Thankfully, no, not that I’m aware of. He would not be in any elected office if he ever said such a thing, I would hope. If Michelle didn’t put “empathy” in quotations, would this even be a valid point of discussion? Or would it simply have been a link back to another post involving the word empathy?

Not exactly sure who I’m defending here (probably both sides), but that’s my problem/delusion as a mod-con — wanting everyone to play nice, my occasional lame comments/fiery wit notwithstanding. Pardon me for butting in.

I’m not saying she didn’t (I didn’t spend much time researching it), but I don’t see where she did. Please show me.

I don’t want to waste any more of our time on this topic, but you don’t think that saying

But if it’s Hamas sympathizers burning Obama flags to protest Israel, well, they deserve our “empathy.”

and linking to a post in which the only person to talk about empathy (though in a very different way) is Obama is pretty clearly implying that Obama is the one saying we need to empathize?
