Senator Obama Vs. President Obama

For awhile, I've been pointing out the hypocrisy of Obama supporters when they allow (and sometimes celebrate) Obama's neckbreaking 180s by saying their default "But with Obama, it's different"...

Little did I know the White House itself would use that very same pathetic excuse when Obama, who is now defending Harry Reid's idea of destroying the filibuster, used to whine like a four year old back in the senate days...

Here's SENATOR Obama...

Now that it's the DEMOCRATS trying to "end the filibuster, change the rules and put an end to democratic debate"???????...

Well you know...That's different"...

The president said in 2012 in the State of the Union Address, ?some of what ?s broken has to with the way Congress does its business these days. A simple majority is no longer enough to get anything, even routine business passed in the Senate. Neither party has been blameless in these tactics, now both parties should put an end to it. For starters, I asked the Senate to pass a simple rule that all judicial and public service nominations receive a simple up or down vote in the Senate within 90 days. Unfortunately that recommendation has not been taken up by the Republicans leadership in the Senate. Contained within those remarks that the president made in the well of the House, the State of the Union address, was an acknowledgement that this is a problem that existed when, has been exacerbated in some ways by both parties. But there is no question that the world today is quite different from how it was in 2005, when it comes to this issue in the Senate. The way that it?s been done and the obstructionism that we?ve seen from Republican leaders in the Senate, and Republicans members in the Senate. It is not the same and it is a real problem. When it comes to Senator Reid, we differ to him on Senate procedure. But we appreciate the support he?s given and will give to the confirmation of the president?s qualified nominees.

So back in 2005, when the Democrats were filibustering all of Bush's nominees, they were heroes...

Now that Republicans are using the same tactic the Democrats used ferociously?...

Pure evil NOW...because "it's different", you see...
