Who Is The Real Barack Hussein Obama?

Reader comment on item: Obama, the Middle East and Islam - An Initial Assessment

Submitted by orange yonason (United States), Feb 18, 2009 at 02:57

B"H

"since being elected he has made predominantly center-left appointments and his statements resemble those of his Oval Office predecessors."

He's biding his time. He won't make any drastic moves that could expose himself and ruin this opportunity. The same, of course, for his plans for America. He's got to "play it cool."

Of course, I could be wrong, and he may not have an agenda, secret or otherwise, other than keeping himself in power. After all, he does seem much more like an opportunist than an ideologue, but then, so do the Imams who ARE ideologues.

Any way you slice it, though, I don't trust him, ...at all.
