Conservatives are using the following video to accuse Barack Obama of rank hypocrisy. But they are forgetting something.
The reality behind this statement is clear, and it's ultimately a weakness for Obama.
His hope that there would be bipartisanship, that conservatives would be able to see past their own ideological blatherings, is what drove this statement. I know it, and those that are citing this as hypocrisy likely know it. This is a statement from a man that want to be able to have everyone come together and change a horrible situation without having to resort to something that is legal but frowned upon - even though we are a nation of "majority rule".
A Blog Version Of The Inside Of My Head. The place where politics, film, the media, music, pop culture, and random topics collide in an orgy of neo-philisophical randomness that would make your mother scream.
