Political expediency. Cowardly. Flip-flopping on a host of topical issues. This self described “fierce advocate” has a serious credibility problem among other things. I’ve no hope that giving this leader (who has failed to deliver on the vast majority of his promises – and has moved backwards on alarming number) another 4 years will make mine, my family or the lives of other citizens better.

Poor Carney. While he isn’t, and will not likely be, well thought of as a press secretary, I feel for him on this matter. Barry doesn’t seem to have a definitive answer to anything. He takes a minimum of 12 hours and had to “sleep on” his decision whether to go after Osama notwithstanding the compelling evidence bin Laden was at the location. Barry has no idea how to resolve our fiscal disaster and other domestic and international challenges, and Hillary is fed up with him for his indecisiveness. Bottom line: Barry will determine which is more politically advantageous based on whether he wants the gay vote or the fundamentalist black church-going vote in 2012. Period.
