Barack Makes Me Dizzy

How many times have you heard this line?

"In his latest reversal, Barack Obama..."

Here's today's:

In a dramatic reversal of policy, Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama on Saturday told supporters on the Space Coast he no longer favors slashing NASA's budget, declaring that the United States "cannot cede our leadership in space."

Yet another example of Obama's Clintonian approach of telling any audience at any given time exactly what they want to hear, regardless of his previously stated position. So let's check out how deeply he has thought this through: what's his vision for NASA?

"Under my watch, NASA will inspire the world, make America stronger and help grow the economy here in Florida," he told 1,400 people at Brevard Community College in Titusville, a community economically dependent on the Kennedy Space Center.

He could have made that statement to any agency, university, corporation, or citizen's group in the country by simply substituting their location for "Florida."

And he probably will.
