Does Obama change too much depending on the court of Public Opinion?

"To be turned from one's course by men's opinions, by blame, and by misrepresentation shows a man unfit to hold an office." Quintus Fabius Maximus, from Plutarch's Lives

Can you elaborate a little on what you're referring to?

Although the spelling mistake is not particularly noteworthy, seeing them in thread titles is fairly common, "Though criticizing Obama is fair, is he to indecisive? has the rare distinction of containing a non-sequitur while being only one short sentence.

Be kind with the kid. We all know he's not exactly the brightest crayon in the box.
Moreover, he is not exactly famous for having original thoughts. Most likely this is
the fault of the website from where the wee one did the copy paste.

Asking me to be "kind" is absolutely outrageous.

I don't understand the the thread's title, but anyway, I think your question is a legitimate one.

Does obama change depending on the audience he is addressing? yes, but so does every other politician, that doesn't necessarily mean they're "unfit to hold an office", it does mean they're willing to put on a phoney smile to win support but we all know that is in the job description.

I think it would be better if you were more specific.

In his recent remarks, when reminded that a majority of Americans want us out of Afghanistan, he repeated an oft-used Bush reply, which was basically, "I don't govern by what the polls say." I for one, was pleasantly surprised. I figured he was a "consensus-er" like Clinton for sure.

The responses to this thread crack me up. Any that should be taken seriously. I am writing off the troll and Seitse immediately, of course.
