The Big Lie

It appears as though Obama's been taking lessons from the Clintons. If your repeatedly stated, "heartfelt" position on an issue is becoming politically inconvenient, just change it.

Sadly, it probably won't hurt him at all in the polls. The American voter base is dangerously compromised by citizens who lack the knowledge, experience and willpower to critically examine a candidate. Meanwhile, the barbarians at the gates are gathering up torches in anticipation of this ridiculous court jester being elevated to the throne.

Barack Obama is a living epitome of the failure of populism in government; with any luck, that is the only thing for which he will be remembered a year from now.
