Reply #76: behind him on his moves to expand offshore oil drilling? [View All]

[CreekDog]

you said all the way.

nobody needs to sell their soul to support Obama, but if you're a Democrat and an environmentalist and you suddenly supported offshore oil drilling because Obama supported it (even if mostly rhetorically)...well then you have sold your soul.

and the funny thing about it is this:

his rhetoric wasn't intended to convince you or me...we know better. it was to steal a few opinion percentage points from the know-nothing middle and a few convincable Republicans.

anybody who understands the game knows liberals weren't expected to support it...but those who did looked kind of duplicitous, or not very bright --and that was before the BP disaster.

sorry supporting him all the way is NOT why I worked for him in 2008.
