Cue The Villagers!

(Apropos this post.) The villagers waste no time in passing out the torches and pitchforks.

In Dante's Inferno, the Opportunists were "the people who refused to take sides on the whole good vs. evil thing, but just looked after themselves. As a result, they're doomed to forever run after a banner while being stung by wasps and hornets… These people aren't technically in hell. They're not evil enough to be in hell, so they're in the vestibule of hell."

Obama didn't take a vote on the Moveon condemnation, but an hour earlier he voted for the Boxer amendment.

What a sad spectacle of a politician. 

Obama, we hardly knew ye. They'll be savaging you from now until you fold. We'd just like to point out that there is a place well inside the vestibule of the Inferno that Matt might want to remember. Like the fifth circle. There, the souls of the wrathful are forever trapped in the filth, stench and slime of the Styx. They pass eternity in attacking each other.

Just sayin', Matt.

    Obama is totaly out of touch. Don’ worry about him. Look at this report:

    Today, for instance, [Obama] had to confront the modern supermarket.

    Visiting the exhibition hall of the National Grocers Association convention here, Mr. Obama lingered at the mock-up of a checkout lane. He signed his name on an electronic pad used to detect check forgeries.

    “If some guy came in and spelled Obama differently, could you catch it?” the senator asked. “Yes,” he was told, and he shook his head in wonder.

    Then he grabbed a quart of milk, a light bulb and a bag of candy and ran them over an electronic scanner. The look of wonder flickered across his face again as he saw the item and price registered on the cash register screen.

    “This is for checking out?” asked Mr. Obama. “I just took a tour through the exhibits here,” he told the grocers later. “Amazed by some of the technology.”

    His spokesman assured reporters that he had seen the senator in a grocery store. A year or so ago. In Kennebunkport.

    Some grocery stores began using electronic scanners as early as 1976, and the devices have been in general use in American supermarkets for a decade.
