Obama among the Doctors

Great blog post over at American Thinker this morning dissecting the "Orwellian double-speak" that is the Great Obfuscator.

Rumbler is on the road this week, but listening to the speech while driving through Texas caught the part where BHO stated "...we will even look into tort reform." (Wild applause from the Doctors) "Uhh, wait a minute, I'm not saying we can do anything quickly..." The man loves to put statements out there - especially when he goes off prompter - to draw adulation from the crowd. It's what feeds him, and after all, it's all about HIM. But then he realizes as the little voice in his head goes "oops!" that he has to retract and so he double-speaks his way out. This is a pattern that he mastered all the way back in law school. I read a column a month or so ago by a classmate of his at Harvard Law who said BHO could enter a debate and leave both sides thinking he had agreed with him. Newt said it best recently when comparing Obama and Reagan: "Reagan used his oratorical skills to tell the truth, to challenge the American people and to elevate us. Obama uses his oratorical skills to obfuscate, deceive and tear us down."
