Tag Archive 'Watergate'

Not only will Barack Obama be the first presidential candidate since Watergate to bypass public financing, he is reneging on an earlier promise to participate in public financing during the general election.

The McCain campaign has already jumped on this by posting a time-line chronicling Obama’s support for public financing and his subsequent reversal.

Obama seems to have a real problem with telling the truth. He repeatedly says one thing and then does another when it behooves him. He signed an oath to not campaign in the state of Florida, but then purchased national TV spots that ran in Florida. He also said that he could no more disown Rev. Wright than he could disown the black community. A month latter he did just that.

When Obama is elected this November and then promptly reverses himself on his pledge to remove the troops from Iraq, no one should act suprised. Saying one thing and then doing another is what Obama does.

You can bank on it.
