Somtimes I Suspect Barack Obama Is Not Being Entirely Straight With Me

Obama's ever-evolving positions, assembled by Mary Katharine Ham.

1 Bush 2004 effectively painted Kerry as a flip flopper, a label that dogged him for the length of the campaign.

McCain 2008 arguably had more ammo.

What happened?

2 "What happened?"

All criticism became racist.

3 I was afraid you were going to say that.

Too bad McCain didn't play hardball from day one. He was afraid of being called a racist but ended up getting called one anyway.

it doesn't make him look as stupid as I know him to be....

Posted by: nygal at November 03, 2008 08:25 PM (Q/ahG)

is it racist to call him stupid?

6 Great! Let's hope this young inexperienced individual doesn't get elected! All politics aside, he doesn't have any experience! I own a small business in Colorado, and over the years increased my skills in hiring, firing, managing, making decisions, etc etc. I paid my taxes, I made important decisions in my business, and it is a very successful practice. This guy has NO EXPERIENCE. He has never had to make these important decisons, and, he has never served in the military! How can you manage people effectively when you have never done their job??? It doesn't work. The employees (soldiers) don't respect a boss if the boss has no experience!!

8 If he had done so, it would have been seen as recycling tactics.

9 McCain - Obama, look at all these different positions you've held. You're a flip flopper ...

Obama - There they go again. It wasn't enough that they Swiftboated a good man like John Kerry! Oh no, now they're trying to do the same to me.

Posted by: Adriane at November 03, 2008 08:30 PM (wJlIy)

10 Adriane, you forgot:

Media - The McCain campaign has sunk to the lowest level ever seen in the history of the Republic when it comes to vile negative campaigning. Obama easily refuted the charge of flip flopping by pointing out that McCain changed his mind not once, not twice, but -three- times...

11 Great video. Sadly, it covers less then half of that asshat's lies.

12 Breaking News

Alaska's Personnel Board finds that Gov. Sarah Palin did not violate ethics law by trying to get her ex-brother-in-law fired.

13 I've said it before. Every Democrat will think they are the president if Obama is elected. He doesn't know how to manage personnel or do any sort of leadership. If he doesn't have a puppetmaster (I don't think it will be Axelrod, he's a campaign guy.) then he will be adrift.

If you're a Democrat, you don't want this guy to be in charge of your party. It will be an unmitigated disaster.

Posted by: AmishDude at November 03, 2008 08:34 PM (T0NGe)

Give the guy a break, will ya. His grandmother just died.

Meanwhile, forensics is stilll trying to match up the tire marks all over her.

Posted by: TomJW at November 03, 2008 08:35 PM (XBGrP)

I wished I had a huge dick like dirk diggler, and whenever someone accused me of being a racist cause as a dem I am voting for McCain---I can pull out my python and say --well suck this you race baiter.

Geraghty has a good column "All of Obamas Promises have expiration dates. ALL OF THEM" in campaignspot today

Check it out

OTOH, he calls the election for Obama- 51 to 48 or 52 to 47, with small possibility of an EV win for McCain if ALL of the swing states swing his way

kdwn.com has Michael Savage on livestream

he's talking about Obama's National Civilian Security Force, Ayers, etc

19 my grandmother died in the nineties...during the clinton reign....can I have some money now?

Posted by: nygal at November 03, 2008 08:39 PM (Q/ahG)

20 Thats not the Barack I thought I knew.

Posted by: Barack Obama at November 03, 2008 08:40 PM (NbR7V)

21 Geraghty's prediction is a bad guess. He has no idea. He's freaked out like everyone else at NRO. None of them are on the inside (because who wants a bunch of pussies on their team) so they only have themselves and everyone else in DC to bump off of.

Geraghty's a decent guy. Maybe even a guy you'd have a beer with. But he's just a dork writing for a dork publication.

Give me morons any day of the week, thank you.

22 The good news for Barack, regarding his grandmother, is that she will still vote for him... twice.

Posted by: TomJW at November 03, 2008 08:43 PM (XBGrP)

whoa, don't listen to Savage

he's delivering the harsh truth about the complete wackjob liberals like Rachel Corrie and her family, but he's er, way, way crazy extremist Michael Savage today

I like his story telling, and thought he'd talk about the coal story today....but he's gone off the deep end

25 In defense of the good Senator, he has been consistent on the right to bear arms.

He does believe that there is a individual right to bear arms. He also believes that the Government does have a compelling interest to have reasonable restrictions to that right, just like Nino did in DC vs Keller.

Barry just thinks it reasonable to have outright bans of a particular class of firearms and ammunition.

He also tempers his enthusiasm in taking your firearms away because he doesn't have the votes in Congress. At least not yet.

Posted by: David in San Diego at November 03, 2008 08:55 PM (GF+6V)

26 In simple terms , anyone who values the Bill of Rights and still votes for Obama is an absolute gold plated fucking idiot.

Barry just thinks it reasonable to have outright bans of a particular class of firearms and ammunition.

Yeah, the class of firearms and ammunition that are most useful for shooting government stormtroopers who try to impose a totalitarian slave state on the citizenry.

But I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

Ed, I couldn't agree more. I used to read the corner because I thought it was smart and insightful. I loved the Kerry Spot. And then I realized I could get moron-level smart insightfulness and laugh at the same time, so I ditched the corner for Ace.

NRO, that whiff of desperation you smell isn't coming from the McCain camp, it's coming from you as you try to stop your slide into -- what's the word I'm looking for? -- oh, yeah. Irrelevance.

29 Hmm, I wonder if Obama fancies himself a painter? Maybe he has great architectural plans as well.

And right on cue, Geraghty kinda sorta wants to change his prediction. See, I told you they were pussies over there.

Though, I'll give Geraghty the option of KNOWING what Obi-Wan was going with and wanted to play head games with the lefty with a prediction only to change it. But if that was the case, he'd have gone all. the. way. and changed his prediction instead of just talking about.

32 It wasn't enough that they Swiftboated a good man like John Kerry!

That's rich. It wasn't the Swiftboating, it was Kerry's pusillanimous response. Kerry didn't want to fight for his honor, so the American people rightly concluded that he wouldn't be willing to fight for anything else.
