As you may recall, we tend to reserve the "pure gold" descriptor for uniquely egregious instances of Obama hypocrisy. This one surely qualifies. American Commitment clips a stump speech snippet from 2008 presidential candidate Barack Obama, scrupulous defender of our constitutional structure, and righteous critic of executive power grabs. Behold:
Senator Barrack Obama. Really what can one even say to this BLATANT cognitive dissonance ?
What can you even say at this point? Here is a man who, as a lame duck president, is openly vowing to thwart, ignore, and bypass Congress whenever possible. Here is a man whose administration has made more than two dozen on-the-fly changes to a law duly passed by Congress, without offering even the faintest sniff of a compelling legal justification for some of the most brazen alterations.
There is a man who thinks his own snip doesn't stink, and neither do his defenders. Oh how I so wish that Obama would be held to the standards that were set for ole GWB.
'Constitutional lawyer' ? What did he get his degree on the 'Internets' ?

It's all in the details right? Did he say he was going to reverse the trend that Bush started or Constitutional Law? I like where you're going with this post. Obama is the ultimate politician, and his speech writers are very clever. He sells you one thing, every-one gets all hyped up, but if you read between the lines he is telling you the exact opposite.
Hope we can change things before he declares himself emperor... If he hasn't already.

His speechwriters must be masters of sarcasm and irony to pen such a compelling parody of today's government... wait... he was being serious? Like really serious?

That's probably the reason behind him studying constitutional law from the get go, so he'll know how to side step it
He believes that he can say one thing and yet do the total opposite and no one is the wiser
God that man is delusional Talk about needing 'mental' help
Not even a 'smidgeon of corruption', eh??? His whole administration is FULL of corruption

He is held to the same standards as GWB hence the problem. Democrats overlook their politicians actions and lies just like the republicans overlook their candidates actions and lies.
People don't care about political ideology anymore they care about having the lesser evil which is apparently a guy that tells you what you want to hear.

Oh Bush couldn't pass gas without MSM complaining about a sudden increase in air pollution and a finger to the source. Obama gets a free pass on things where people have literally died under or a level beneath his own direct command. It's been quite a thing to see....and Republicans turned on Bush pretty seriously in his second term too. I was among them, so certainly do recall the hard feelings starting to develop in 06/07. By 08, he'd turned outright socialist on us, nationalizing things in plain sight.
Now bail outs are almost accepted as a given when necessary, under that new, softer name.

I don't disagree but Isn't foxnews MSM? So does it matter how much of a pass CNN,MSNBC,and HLN give Obama when Foxnews beats all their ratings combined? Lets not even include the Drudge Report republican outlet that kills them all.
They all get free passes from the MSM it just depends what party and MSM station you prefer, that is the problem. Their is no news its just marketing and they cover both sides of the spectrum to get 100% return on their investments. The real commercials is not during the break its during the MSM Show.
Then what does the GOP do? They find the most liberal socialist candidate based on previous actions to lead their party and one of the pioneers of Obamacare with Romney Care. BTW I'm no Obama fan and believe that republicans ideals are better suited than democrat ideals during this time of rampant corruption in congress.
However part of the problem is the republican party does the exact opposite of its ideals and individual republicans prefer to point the finger at the democrats when their party has been clearly hijacked. The MSM bit is a cop out and excuse to overlook their own mess.

Yes, and in 2012 he sighed the Biggie! Now Ponder This,,, Statement! Obama's Plan to Sieze Control
Think about it, this give Obama and his Designated Cabinet and Agency Heads the authority to commandeer and control, all water, all human and animal food, all transportation, all energy, all construction materials, all “health resources,” all farm equipment, all fertilizers, all fuels and much more. Think about it, You want those Chicago Thugs, in Control of Your and your families well being?

167 Total Executive orders Issued by Obama and still counting. The lesser of two evil does not exist because it's all pure and utterly evil. Let's bash each other so it looks good for the ignorant while we take the rest of your rights away. Government needs to be checked yesterday. Even if those EO's are of good intent, they will lead to hell sometime in the future because someone will abuse it. I see a dictator in the future and my crystal ball has been broke for twenty years. The time frame is questionable but the groundwork is being paved.
Ask him why he wrote those executive orders and I mean all of them. I want to see him squirm.

a no brainer...
Classic case of listening in on opponents transgressions, than promise the opposite, and once in power...do the same. This is almost a default political policy and not a surprise anymore, I hope.
And you eat it up like soup...easy. To the voting boxes !!!!!
