President Obama, Hypocrite

Now he’s complaining about foreign money coming in to ad campaigns against his policies – from the NY Times:

…In two campaign stops Thursday, Mr. Obama invoked what he portrayed as a specific new example, citing a blog posting from a liberal advocacy group as he teed off on a longtime adversary, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, over its political spending.

“Just this week, we learned that one of the largest groups paying for these ads regularly takes in money from foreign corporations,” Mr. Obama said. “So groups that receive foreign money are spending huge sums to influence American elections.”…

First off, as the story goes on to note, there is little evidence of foreign money being used by the Chamber for politics but even if there was, Obama is not the man to be complaining about it.

As Instapundit usefully reminds everyone, back in 2008 a flood of absolutely illegal, foreign money came pouring in to the Obama campaign. And that was just the tip of the illegal money iceberg, as Obama’s campaign set things up so that it was surpassingly easy for Americans to illegally exceed contribution limits. As is typical for Democrats, Obama’s campaign was shot through with financial illegality…and now he’s got the nerve to even question someone else’s finances?

Of course he does. He’s a liberal, you see? This means that anything he does to win is good, no matter how illegal. Anything done to oppose him, naturally, is bad, no matter how legal.

But this this just the sort of garbage we’re looking to clear out on November 2nd. President Obama, your time is done – you and all your fellow liberals. We’ve had enough, and we’re going to take our country back.
