    Why is it hypocritical? I don't see it at all. The super Pac system of bribery is the system that exists created by the conservatives. Obama has to operate in the system that exists. That doesn't make it hypocritical to criticize it.

    His going back on this promise is like the promise he made to the Catholic's, not to mess with their religion, if they backed Ubamacare and we now know how that turned out.

    I'll say it again. IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY. IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PROCESS.

    IT'S ABOUT CHARACTER AND HONOR.

    When you pledge to do something, public campaign financing for example, then renounce your pledge you are a garden variety scumbag. When you support such a person and their action you too are a scumbag.

    Here is the leftwad's opportunity to elevate their miserable character and lack of personal honor by condemning Obama for his scumbaggery and predictably we get the exact opposite.

    You all disgust me. You are tools.

    Here's uber-uber-uber-leftwad Robert Reich denouncing Obama's scumbaggery. This is actual character in action, tools:

    Reich isn't too strong or too specific. He'd still fellate Obama at any time because standing he's just the right height. But at least he has a shred of intellectual integrity.

    Y'all have none. You believe in the dictum "by any means necessary". Any that leads to ugliness on the scale of genocides.

    You can't change the system from outside of it. How much progress on it will there be if he loses?

    I don't like any of them, so what's your point? You just assumed I like Romney, which I do not.

    ..."honor" and "character". You have none if you support this.

    Unless you carry a billy club at a voting booth while screaming, "Youre about to be ruled by the black man, cracker" or if youre handing out automatic weapons to murderous illegal alien drug cartel members...

    I still haven't had anyone point out where he lied. He'd only lie if he said he wasn't going to take super pac money and then did take super pac money. You can be against Super PACs and still use them to win an election. He's just playing with the rules he was given. If you don't like Obama using Super PACs then make sure to inform your congressman as I have.

    How easily that hardened fact was brushed aside,even halfway thru
    his internet-frenzied fund raising.Obama went on record originally saying
    he wouldn't use Private funds and just the General funds like has been the
    practice since before Jimmy Carter.
    He lied.
    Obama is a Liar ... plain and simple.
    Obama opted out of public financing for the General Election.
    " He has completely reversed himself and gone back,not on his word
    to me,but the commitment he made to the American People. "
