Barack Obama and the Changing Political Landscape

There's nothing in Obama's record to indicate he's anything but a pro-corporate, anti-populist DLC Democrat, a DINO, a Republican-in-Democrats'-clothing.



His flip-flop on FISA in June 2008 was a pretty good indicator of his politics & character (or lack of character).



Obama's most ardent supporters excused that betrayal, insisting that he was a closet liberal who had to vote that way in order to trick centrists & independents into voting for him in the general election.



It's Obama's 'most ardent followers' who were tricked, & are still in denial, for they refuse to acknowledge that Obama has been continuing just about all of Bush's policies, & actually going Bush-Cheney one better on asserting unitary executive powers for himself (preventive detention, murdering Americans without due process or oversight, etc., continuing rendition and t0rture, cloaking it all in the 'State Secrets'-Act).



Until Obama's 'most ardent supporters' wake up, we're all going to be held hostage & suffer the consequences as Obama makes our worst fears come true about where Bush & Cheney were taking this country.
