Obama Campaign Now DIRECTLY Supporting SUPER PAC

Late last night an email went out from Barackobama.com - the official website for the campaign to re-elect Barack Obama. It's been known for some time that Obama and his team have been indirectly taking money from the political action committees he has so vehemently opposed in public. But now the pretense is all but gone.

Jim Messsina, Obama's campaign director, is now openly admitting that they are in full support of "Priorities USA", the Super PAC they hope can help neutralize the avalanche of special-interest spending to defeat President Obama.

The justification:

We decided to do this because we can't afford for the work you're doing in your communities, and the grassroots donations you give to support it, to be destroyed by hundreds of millions of dollars in negative ads.

So, Obama and his team are now openly reversing their stance on big money donor groups because of the needs of the people. How nice to have the sheep to blame for the hypocrisy. Messina goes on to write in last night's email that:

The stakes are too important to play by two different sets of rules. If we fail to act, we concede this election to a small group of powerful people intent on removing the President at any cost.

So let's see if we have this right. Obama was morally repulsed by the "super pacs" and their ability to raise large amounts of money for a candidate and even went so far as to say he wouldn't do it himself and now, because of the needs of the people, it has become morally acceptable to directly support them? Sounds an awful lot like his stance on "gay" marriage - first he was in favor of the man-woman only position and now, only a short three years later, he has totally changed his mind. Can Barack Obama be trusted on anything? It's a rhetorical question.
