1/26) Obama’s Credibility Gap (NYT)

Sanders · Diamond

Awesome find, Amy, Thanks for sharing!

Americans are still looking for the answer, and if they don’t get it soon — or if they don’t like the answer — the president’s current political problems will look like a walk in the park.

Hehehehe!! Of course! Pres.Obama has had the longest honey moon period of any President.

Mr. Obama is in danger of being perceived as someone whose rhetoric, however skillful, cannot always be trusted. He is creating a credibility gap for himself, and if it widens much more he won’t be able to close it.
The article is very generous. He may already be in the gaping hole of the credibility gap.

When someone who is such a liberal comes forth and writes such a lengthy article warning him of a looming credibility gap, you know it is already a bit out of hand.

They can't avoid the truth any longer. It was nice to know this would happen, but it didn't make the disaster that is the Obama fake "presidency" any easier.

"Mr. Obama may be personally very appealing, but he has positioned himself all over the political map: the anti-Iraq war candidate who escalated the war in Afghanistan; the opponent of health insurance mandates who made a mandate to buy insurance the centerpiece of his plan; the president who stocked his administration with Wall Street insiders and went to the mat for the banks and big corporations, but who is now trying to present himself as a born-again populist."

Good article. I am glad to see people are waking up out of their stupor.
