So basically, for Obama, not much has changed. Except now that he is POTUS, his not thinking what is best for the country, as opposed to his narcissim and strick adherance to Marxist ideology, has a larger negative impact on the USA than his Senate vote.

Default The president says that as a senator, he wasn't thinking about "what was important for the country."

WOW! Obama is finally showing a little consistency.

Once in a rare while, the most transparent president ever let's us know what he is really thinking.

Start a thread on it and do post their comments. This one is about Obama, if you dare to stay on topic.
