Obama Insider Defends Assassins?

According to ABC News, Barack Obama has another problem with the company he keeps. This time, it's an ultimate Washington D.C. insider, who helped recruit Obama to run for President - Greg Craig. Mr. Craig is not your ordinary political hack, rather a back-room deal maker for would-be presidential assigns and South American terrorists.

Many people make the case the company you keep indicates the judgment you have developed. A very valid argument indeed. Think of Barack Obama's judgment as he surrounds himself with folks like Greg Craig, Tony Renkzo and Reverend Wright.

Many will argue everyone, even people who murder U.S. soldiers and those that attempt to kill a U.S. President need legal representation. That may be the what academics and the snobby sophists on America's coasts theorize, but I suspect the heartland discerns a more sinister and darker motive behind those who get paid to work for assassins.

Camp Obama's defense is to point at the other two candidates, claiming they have their own inner circle of jerks. OK. The petulant child defense "but they did it too" faded with third grade.

They said this was the year politics was going to change.

Yet we learn, in Obama's world, the more times the word "change" is said, the more things remain the same.
