Obama Cares Too Much About His Image

Anyone halfway aware of what he's been doing should be able to easily realize this. He's continuously giving rhetoric and symbol-filled speeches on tough subjects while going exactly against what he says when considering policy. Often, he just speaks and then does nothing at all. This is because he knows that people hear sound bites from his speeches on the news and then they fail to understand or even hear about what actual policies the government is following. George W. Bush probably got a worse reputation than he deserved (although I'm still not saying he was a good president by any measure) because his sound bites were worse than his actual policies. At least Bush had conviction and followed through based on it. A great example of the inconsistency of Obama's speeches and his policies is right here:

Here Obama says that we have to stick by our principles and realize that detention without charge is against America:

Here Obama considers a policy that establishes a "legal basis for the United States to incarcerate terrorism suspects who are deemed a threat to national security but cannot be tried." Huh. So, either Obama directly contradicts what he says, or he thinks he can change what America stands for (to use some stupid presidential rhetoric) if what it actually stands for isn't to his liking.

Arrogant idiot.
