Obama's drift to the center is driving his supporters crazy

Or let's put it this way .......Arianna Huffington is warning Barack the centrist not to throw Barack the lib under the bus.

Arianna Huffington: Memo to Obama: Moving to the Middle is for Losers - Politics on The Huffington Post


The one thing that stands out that is really driving them nuts is his declared support for the FISA compromise.
Given the legitimate threats we face, providing effective intelligence collection tools with appropriate safeguards is too important to delay. So I support the compromise, but do so with a firm pledge that as president, I will carefully monitor the program

This of course is a flip from the position he took in the primaries .

"I am proud to stand with Senator Dodd, Senator Feingold and a grassroots movement of Americans who are refusing to let President Bush put protections for special interests ahead of our security and our liberty."

Moveon.org is calling on Obama to honor his pledge to filibuster the compromise when it comes to a vote in the Senate
MoveOn.org Political Action: Democracy in Action

I would advise them to not hold their breath . My guess is that he will find a way to skip the vote like he did last time when he was too busy campaigning for the Potomic primaries.

what a day!
I haven't even had time to deal with the disgusting Weasely Clarke's comments . But I did notice in Obama's patriotism speech he did manage a smack down of Moveon.org.'s General Betrayus snipe.

Quote:
"most evident during our recent debates about the war in Iraq, when those who opposed administration policy were tagged by some as unpatriotic, and a general providing his best counsel on how to move forward in Iraq was accused of betrayal.”

Is that a move to the center ;a sista soulja moment ,or did he really throw moveon.org under the bus ?

Evita is saying I told you so

It is BS to hire or fire someone because of their religion. But I am not angered by either one of these decision's. He has to do what he needs to do to win. I look at Obama as just another Politician. I can see people getting angry if they didn't look at Obama as just another politician but he is. And if you are gullible enough to believe everything that comes out of a politician's mouth that is your own fault. Sadly I think a lot of people look at Obama as Superman which we all know isn't true. He is just a politician. But he is still better then a Republican!!!

Crashing in Vietnam and being held and tortured is not a qualification to be President!!!! See #3!!!!

MCCAIN IS A TOTAL CAMELEON!!
MCCAIN, ER MCBUSH, ***THE CAMELEON***

1. He opposed tax cuts to the wealthy; now supports them

2. Sponsored major campaign finalcial reform in a bill that bears his name; now against.

3. Was firmly against torture; now for torture.

4. Has been on both sides of the ethanol issue, for and against.

5. Has been on both sides of state promotion of the confederate flag; for and against.

6. Has been on both sides of overturning Roe v Wade; was against, now for.

7. Criticized religious right with comments like”agents of intolerance”; now sought
support of Haggee and other right wing hatemongers.

8. Was against sending more troops to Iraq before he was for it.

9. Was against OFFSHORE DRILLING A MONTH AGO(May 08)NOW FOR
DRILLING OFF CALIFORNIA AND FLORIDA

There are three pages of McCain flipflops, these are just some of them.

He's a piece of crap with no integrity whatsoever. He would do or say anything to be President.

Scum.
