Obama Tries His Stand Up Routine

J.J. Jackson* | January 31, 2007 

When politics no long suits him, Barack Obama has a promising career as a stand up comic.

WASHINGTON - Although he frequently makes a point of finding something charitable to say about his opponents’ arguments, Sen. Barack Obama almost always ends up voting liberal.

“The arguments of liberals are more often grounded in reason and fact,” the Illinois Democrat wrote in “The Audacity of Hope,” a memoir published last year.

Ok, once again the challenge is STILL open to you liberals that think this.

For example, liberals believe that the “general Welfare” clause should be interpreted very loosely to give the government the right to do whatever it wants in terms of taxing and spending. This is despite the FACT that the founding fathers argued exactly the opposite (see Federalist 41) and won based on that argument.

Anyone want to try and disprove me? I’m up for a laugh.

I guess for Barack Obama it all depends on what your definition of “facts” are.
