It indicates that Obama isn't being upfront about his policies



This is the big one ... his actions here show that he is playing a game of deceit against the American people

You'd almost think he was in politics or something.

Seems I remember other politicians doing somewhat similar things, not being upfront about policies and beliefs and whatnot...something about an Etch-A-Sketch?

Wasn't that the campaign manager or something and not actually Romney that said it?

Could be a golden chance for some good fill-in-the-blank material for both late night talk show hosts and Republican candidates. One thing I wouldn't do though is put much stock in this as being something nefarious.

Washington always grinds to a halt for 6+ months leading up to a presidential election and picks up the following January. This happens on just about every issue imaginable.

Huge contrast between 'The Decider' and 'Mr Diplomacy'.... brain hemorrhaging difference... I can see how this is tough for some to swallow, and much easier for others to swallow...

I love how Obama is so casual with the Russians in saying "After my election I have more flexibility".

He isn't even worried about the Republican jokers in November.

and why should he be? Do the candidates the GOP are running give you the feeling that they are desperately trying to remove Obama from office? After Bush's first term, almost anyone could have beaten him... until the Democrats ran their worst candidate ever: John Kerry. Why would they do that?


Obama's comments don't come across as confidence, they come across as inside information that he already knows.

Almost as if he has access to Newspapers and a TV...
