After using the radical left for his entire political career, Barack Obama is clumsily flip-flopping his way toward something resembling a “center.” His latest policy double-backflip caused so much rage in the Nutroots that he’s now trying to reassure them his plan to surrender and retreat hasn’t changed one bit: Obama ‘puzzled’ by Iraq comment frenzy.

ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama said on Saturday his plan to end the Iraq war was unchanged and he was puzzled by the sharp reaction to his statement this week that he might “refine” his timetable for withdrawing U.S. combat troops.

“For me to say that I’m going to refine my policies I don’t think in any way is inconsistent with prior statements and doesn’t change my strategic view that this war has to end and that I’m going to end it as president,” Obama told reporters on his campaign plane.

Change!

The bassoon is one of my favorite instruments. It has the medieval aroma -- like the days when everything used to sound like that. Some people crave baseball -- I find this unfathomable -- but I can easily understand why a person could get excited about playing a bassoon.
