Title: OBAMA 'ENLISTS' - DEM AGREES US IS FIGHTING 'WAR ON TERROR'

LANCASTER, Pa. - Barack Obama says the United States is engaged in a "war on terror" - using the same wording as President Bush to describe the global battle against Islamic extremists.

In his first sit-down interview with Bill O'Reilly of "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News Channel, Obama said he absolutely" believes the United States is fighting a war on terror.

Obama said the enemy was "al Qaeda, the Taliban, a whole host of networks that are bent on attacking America, who have a distorted ideology, who have perverted the faith of Islam."

Many Democrats reject the use of the term, which the administration has used to argue for a global conflict that extends beyond national boundaries, and includes the war in Iraq, which Obama opposed and called a "dumb war."

The much anticipated interview was months in the making -after repeated requests from O'Reilly, who even trailed Obama at a rally in Nashua, NH, earlier this year to make his appeal in person - and winding up in a shoving match with a campaign aide.

Despite talk of bad blood between the Democratic nominee and the broadcaster, Obama seemed positively upbeat after Thursday's sitdown with O'Reilly.

Asked how it went, Obama replied, "It was great."

During the interview, Obama also called Iran a "major threat," and said it would be "unacceptable" for the regime to develop a nuclear weapon.

"It's sufficient to say I would not take military action off the table, and that I will never hesitate to use our military force in order to protect the homeland and the United States' interests."

But Obama has said repeatedly that he favors diplomacy as a first course of action.

Obama also warned against the current US administration lumping radical Islamic groups together.

"They have fueled a whole host of terrorist organizations," Obama said of Iran, but "we have to have the ability to distinguish between groups . . . They may not all be part and parcel of the same ideology."

Obama also said President Bush's surge of troops into Iraq - which Obama initially opposed - "has succeeded in ways that nobody anticipated.

"I've already said it's succeeded beyond our wildest dreams."

Before his "O'Reilly Factor" debut, Obama spent Thursday campaigning through rural Pennsylvania, a swing state that is critical victory.

He toured a factory in York, where he continued to pound on the Republicans for stressing biography over issues.

"I understand that they don't have much of an agenda to run on, but I think the American people deserve more than the same old vitriol that we've seen the last couple of days," he said.

He then headed to Lancaster, west of Philadelphia, where a long line of voters stretched around the block to catch Obama at an evening event.


Poster Comment:

OK, PILES. Obama believes, as does Bush, in the WOT, al Qaeda, the Taliban, the evil Iran and last but not least, that Bush's surge " succeeded beyond our wildest dreams"

Change?

Change my ass. (1 image)

Substitute "McCain" for "Obama" in this interview and no one would really notice.

That's why Palin will win the election.

She's no Joe Biden.

Well, she was certainly correct about Obama: He'll do and say anything to become President, and he uses "hope and change" to further his own career.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

As if Palin is any more principled than Obummer. Palin went from being a Buchanan and Ron Paul supporter to a full-fledged Neocon within seconds of McCain's invite, raving about winning the war on terror, a "God ordained" war in Iraq, standing by Israel, "the Iranian threat" blah blah blah.

I know, but she's more appealing. I figure since the show is all about entertainment, I am allowed to be superficial like the rest of the population.

Isn't Paris Hilton still running? If only Obummer had waited for McCain's Palin pick, he could have countered by offering Paris the VP slot.

Paris isn't running and can't run, at least not yet. She isn't old enough to be president, at least not according to the Constitution. They may waive the age requirement though. I read just the other day that Biden was elected for his first term in the Senate when he still wasn't old enough to serve there either. I guess the establishment waives any of the rules that goes against their annointed ones.
