Obama: longtime champion of campaign finance reform - Ha Ha Ha. What a liar.

“Moreover, when Obama’s ideals clash with reality, he has been able to find compromises that don’t put him at a political disadvantage. For instance, no Democrat can win the general election while adhering to the public financing system if the Republican nominee doesn’t do the same. Clinton and John Edwards have simply conceded that the public financing system is dead and are ignoring fund-raising restrictions that would be triggered if either ends up playing within the public financing scheme. Facing the same situation, Obama—a longtime champion of campaign finance reform in general and public financing in particular—asked the Federal Election Commission if he could raise the potentially restricted money now (the world as it is) but then give it back if he wins the nomination and convinces his Republican opponent to stick with public financing (the world as we would like it to be).”

I read somewhere that The NY Times said that Obama was “flexible” and did not flip-flop.

I guess if people vote for him, “The screwing they want is the screwing they will get.”

Wouldn’t it be great if WE had a candidate who could take advantage of this by having solid positions himself, 1) tax cuts, 2) Guantanamo, 3) offshore drilling. ????Unfortunately the media will be able to neutralize McCain's possible benefits from Obama's flipping around. In fact Obama probably figured this out.

The MSM learned its lesson on Kerry. Ignore the message of the annointed candidate, the candidate IS the message.

Kerry had the personality of a dead dog. So it was hard to deflect away from the substance of his campaign. Obamania is it’s own message; it’s a cult. Who cares what the substance of the message is? Just wet your pants and be happy that he’s here to save us from ourselves.

"There appears to be no issue that Barack Obama is not willing to reverse himself on for the sake of political expedience. This is the change he promised , This reality of his so called change, shows him to be a typical lying liberal politician."

"You can be sure there will never be any clear answers from Obama on any critical issue. He is quite comfortable taking positions that contradict each other. Sadly, his inconsistent and dishonest positions are perfectly acceptable to his Obamabot cult members, who blindly follow him."

Instead of the change candidate, Hussein ObamaMessiaHamas, will be known as the Ooops Uh Flip-Flop Candidate, who couldn't tell the truth!

Quit your whining about my Flip Flops, Waffling and Lies, you God Loving, Gun owning and Bitter White Racist Patriots!

Damn Pajama Media. They won’t let me get by with my lies and flip flopping.
