Iran tests fires missiles.
Whose fault is it?
Barack Obama on the “CBS Early Show” this morning:
“What this underscores is the need for … a clear policy that is putting the burden on Iran to change behavior. And frankly, we just have not been able to do that the last several years, partly because we’re not engaged in direct diplomacy.”
Barack Obama on CNN this morning:
“We have to have a kind of aggressive diplomacy which unfortunately has been absent over the last several years.”
Barack Obama on NBC’s “Today Show” this morning:
“Part of the problem that we’ve got right now is, weve been basically farming out diplomatic activity to the Europeans.”

Several years, eh? That narrows it down to two, three or four. You’d think B. Hussien Obama could be more precise given the length of his tenure in the Senate — which is two years less than President-elect McCain spent as a POW in Vietnam.
