Way to Keep Your Word, Obama
June 19th, 2008 by Scott
Obama. The “candidate of change.”
Just a few months ago (Nov 2007), Obama reiterated that he would “return excess money from donors, and stay within the public financing system for the general election.”
Today, when he realized that the Republicans have been raising more money (Republican National Committee has $40 million on hand, a compared to the $4 million on hand in the Democratic National Committe as of this writing) and he needed to catch up, the candidate of change decided to change his position and said, “We’ve made the decision not to participate in the public financing system for the general election.”
So the candidate of change means HE’s going to CHANGE HIS POSITION. Now I get it.
How are we to trust his comments on the War on Terror when he can’t even keep a promise about funding his own campaign?
