George Bush thinks it is "appeasement" to talk with countries that don't agree with the United States. Because that has been his policy for these past seven years, he wants voter to reject Barack Obama who believes in talking with everyone, even with those whom George Bush characterizes as "enemies."
If talk is appeasement, then what is negotiation,? Believing that it is always wrong to talk with "enemies," I guess that means that the State Department is an anachronism since State thought that diplomacy, frank discussion and negotiation really did matter.
Bush's policy of talk being equivalent to appeasement is the reason why the foreign policy of the U.S. under Bush has been such a militaristic and bellicose disaster. According to the bible of Bush, don't talk, don't negotiate, don't engage in diplomacy. Rather Bush's solution is to send in the war planes and the tanks.
