We can't go to a discussion and be completely the demander, with them not feeling that they need anything from us."<br /><br />Listening to Bush today <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2008/05/16/world/middleeast/16prexy.html?_r=1&amp;hp&amp;oref=slogin">equate</a> Obama's diplomatic posture towards Iran with Nazi appeasement (to which McCain <a href="http://thepage.time.com/sen-mccain-reacts-to-bushs-comments/">agreed</a>), you may assume those words are the Democratic nominee's.
