Another Obama Flip-Flop

The guy is like a trained seal!

"Obama pushes full vote for Fla., Mich.

Now that Barack Obama has clinched the Democratic nomination for president, he wants convention delegates from Florida and Michigan to have full voting rights at the party's national convention.

Obama sent a letter yesterday to the party's credentials committee, asking members to reinstate the delegates' voting rights when the committee meets at the start of the convention (AP August 4, 2008)."

I don't really give a pfffft, but he argued against that during the campaign!

Is nothing the guy said to win the nomination worth a sh.....?

LANSING, Mich. - Campaign adviser Heather Zichal said he reconsidered his position because "Americans are suffering."

You know, looked at it that way....

At least he is pretending to care, which is more than we got from Bush.

In response, McCain's campaign quickly noted that Obama opposed dipping into the oil reserve as recently as last month. "The strategic oil reserve exists for America's national security strategy - not Barack Obama's election strategy."

Translation: It exists for the MILITARY when the shit hits the fan!

The nation's strategic petroleum reserve contains 707.2 million barrels in salt caverns in Texas and Louisiana. Since Katrina, President Bush has refused to use the reserves, saying they need to be kept for emergencies. However, under congressional pressure, Bush stopped filling the reserve in June until prices decline.

Which means he's filling it up again, isn't he?

--MORE--"

Funny how that price drop kicked in right after they told Bush to stop filling the war reserve!

Coincidence?
