Here is the president in 2010 speaking on the evil potential of corporations deciding elections:
Apparently, some sort of epiphany has taken place, because now, a mere two years later, the president sees great wisdom in just exactly what he denigrated.
From FOX News -
WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s campaign is asking top fundraisers to support a Democratic-leaning outside group that is backing the president’s re-election bid, reversing Obama’s opposition to “super” political action committees, which can spend unlimited amounts of cash to influence elections.
Obama’s campaign urged wealthy fundraisers in a Monday night conference call to support Priorities USA, a super PAC led by two former Obama aides that has struggled to compete with the tens of millions of dollars collected by Republican-backed outside groups.
Obama has opposed the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision that stripped away some limits on campaign contributions. The new super PACs can’t coordinate directly with campaigns, but many have played a major role in the Republican primary contests, raising millions of dollars to use in negative advertising in early contests such as Iowa, South Carolina and Florida.
Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said in an email to supporters Monday that the president’s campaign “can’t allow for two sets of rules” in which the Republican presidential nominee benefits from “unlimited spending and Democrats unilaterally disarm.”
“We decided to do this because we can’t afford for the work you’re doing in your communities, and the grassroots donations you give to support it, to be destroyed by hundreds of millions of dollars in negative ads,” Messina said.
And He said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God.
Luke 16: 15
Come on liberals – please tell us more about all the ways Christian conservatives are hypocritical. . .
This guy is a piece of work…
The way they carry on is schitzophrenic, or more politely, double minded. Split personalities are psycho. Murderers are sociopaths. Since Barack Obama is double minded, with a split personality and loves to engage in murder, that means he is a sociopath. Clincally I have learned from listening to a world reknowned mental health professional that he is in the advance stages of a Nero complex. The 25th Amendment Section 4 is specifically written to cover us when this kind of misfortune befalls us, it has to be invoike by a member of the Cabinet. Who has the guts in that venerable body to do the honors? Surely there has to be a closet patriot in the Cabinet…………………..
IN the name of Jesus………………………………
Yep! And these are the experts at the double talk… Did Skippy ever teach at HypocracyU? LOL… I heard he has a BS degree!
