President Georack Odubya

Wednesday night, Rachel Maddow and Jon Turley ripped into the President on his "photo finish" about face on detainee pictures.



As both of them note, this is turning into a regular feature of the Obama Odubya administration.

Couple that with today's expected announcement that the President is going to reauthorize military tribunals for some Gitmo prisoners rather than try them in a court of law, and given the fact Democrats rejected the President's call for money to close Gitmo until he has a definite plan to deal with the detainees, you just have to wonder.

We needed a strong President ready to do both the popular and unpopular things because they were the right things to do. Instead, surprise! He's a politician.

He is still better than Dubya. He's still not good enough for all the problems we have. He's what we do have to work with, but the country deserves better, and will only get the better when we demand it.

New badly overdue tag for when Obama pulls this garbage: President Odubya.

[UPDATE] The erstwhile Double G drops the hammer on Obama again and again and again on this, as he deserves to be hammered.
