Family Security Matters » Publications » Bonfire of the Platitudes: "Pick any speech by Obama, any time, on any subject. It is far easier to analyze the real content, if any, in a speech by reading it after the fact, than by listening to it live. That is both the appeal and the danger of a demagogue. At the time, the speech may seem to be substantial."
This is what I do with all political candidates. After doing this with Obama I realized what a great speaker he is, but how short on substance he is as well. He is able to mobilize through his great oratory but his ideas are full of hot air. He has no plans and no experience other than that of rallying people.
We need much more than this today. What we need is something Obama does not have integrity at a very basic level. Almost everything he has said he would not do, he has done in less than 100 days in office.
Were you upset about the money spent on the Iraq war by President George Bush over 8 years?
Then I expect that you would be more upset in the fact that Obama has spent more on pork in less than 3 months as political paybacks for his seat.
