I remember it like yesterday when John Kerry achieved the nickname waffles throughout blogsphere and soon the media started using it. Because he constantly flip flopped back and forth on his stance on things. “I was for the war before I was against it.”
Now it seems Obama is following in those footsteps.
He’s for the surge but against it. He’s for funding the troops but against it. The surge will fail oh wait, the surge is successful. Troops should be withdrawn oh wait, I never said troops should be withdrawn. And on and on. Some things he was for, then against, then for again.
I’m not saying all politicians don’t have their share of crap that comes out of their mouths, but jeez. Just take a look at the video.

He may be flip-flopping now but just imagine what he’ll be like if elected. Bet your bottom $ that he’ll take a firm stand (and we’ll be lip-deep in quicksand) once he isn’t at the mercy of the court of public opinion. His ‘true colors’ will come shining through and they won’t be ‘red,white, and blue!!! My ‘hats off’ to the powers that be at The New Yorker. Methinks their controversial cover picture is a self-fulfilling prophecy. One we’re going to pay dearly for. Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to decieve!
