Listen To What The Man Said

Obama said Saturday...

"What I hope is that we can avoid the political posturing and ideological brinksmanship that has bogged down this process, and Congress, in the past."

..."some in Washington who are attempting to draw old battle lines and playing the usual political games..."

Surprisingly, and the scientific community is united in that fact, the AP points out...

As a senator, Obama supported a failed attempt by Democrats to stall President George W. Bush's nomination of Samuel Alito to the high court.

Let's not forget the usual political game the Agent of Change? played as Senator when it came to to confirm John Roberts for Chief Justice.

Democrat Barack Obama was inclined to vote for John G. Roberts Jr. for Supreme Court chief justice back in 2005, but decided against it when told it could hurt him in the Democratic presidential contest, said the senator's chief of staff.

Mr. Obama praised his aide for guiding him back to a politically expedient position.

Classic Fiberal do as I say.
