Barack Obama's policy switches are giving the Left whiplash
The Democratic nominee's policy pivots are causing anguish among liberals. He is no fool
Gerard Baker
Change, it turns out, wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. Having campaigned for the past year as the agent of transformation, the man who would lead an historic shift in America's political direction, Barack Obama is discovering that there is quite a lot he likes about the way things are.
Since securing the Democratic nomination a few weeks ago, the only change coming from the Illinois senator has been in what he seems to stand for. Last month he dropped his opposition to a Bill before Congress that would give telecoms companies immunity from prosecution for carrying out illegal wiretaps on potential terrorist suspects.

He’s lying, he’s a commie till the cows come home, the moonbat left needs to chill out an let bambi fool the center into believing him. Or maybe their know this and their outrage is staged?
And when people become THIS freaking STUPID and inattentive to their freedoms, THIS is the candidate they deserve.

Hurry before some diversity loving (RIGHT!) Obamaniac at YouTube pulls it.
Obama is setting the world record.
He’s a lib. This means he flip-flops.
This is the strangest election process I’ve ever witnessed.
So, if Obama doesn’t want to bring the troops home until Iraq is stabalized, doesn’t that give him the same position as......George W. Bush.
Someone post that over at DU, they’ll have a heart attack.
this triangulates like a bat at sunset.
Obama had to pander to the goofball left in order to beat Hillary and now he’s got to distance himself from the goofball left in order to try to fool the “independents” and “moderates”. In today’s cyberspace mass-media world, a wink and a nod doesn’t cut it anymore. The oily scumbag has boxed himself in, but good.
A flip on Iraq will be the deal-breaker.
Gotta agree there. In any normal universe nobody with Obama's pedigree would even get laughably close to the nomination by a party, let alone any actual election to the highest office on the planet.
Heck... We're better at selecting a new American Idol than we are at selecting the next President.
