I expect to hear more of this

In a reversal, Barack Obama…

With this reversal, he now favors releasing oil from the strategic reserve, a move I wholeheartedly disagree with. Nowadays whenever I hear Obama’s name I think of this guy.

Obama Gumby

That image may have been inspired by this that I read the other day:

In any case, Tom Maguire is sounding awfully cynical:

This may simply be another manifestation of an Obama campaign tactic - adopt every position held by McCain and then ask voters to choose their next President on the basis of youth, energy, and speaking skill. Could work!

Back to Barack’s new plan:

The Democratic presidential candidate said in a major energy speech that in the short-run the move could help drive down gasoline prices that now top $4 a gallon. Previously, Obama opposed tapping into the reserve, located in caverns in Texas and Louisiana.

Also, kudos the AP writer who is unaware that national gas prices are $3.88.
