Hindsight is 20/20

It has been 5 days since the outcry over Obama's school speech began. We have the transcript and beyond a question asking "How will you help Barack Obama help this nation?", it seems pretty mild to most pundits. When Rush Limbaugh says something a liberal created is o.k., I think we can all rest assured that it's o.k..

I think most expected the transcript to be put through a McCarthy-machine to find out any liberal or socialist innuendos or riddles. It probably was. Glenn Beck's interns probably sat all afternoon reading and re-reading, with Marx books by their side for reference, and had to enter his office forelorn that they could find zilch. Gack, what will he talk about tomorrow?

I think most also expected that if the speech ended up being innocent, there would be either distraction or back-peddling from the Republican party. Alas, here it is. And here is Glenn Beck's topic for tomorrow.

Dozens of bloggers are our compass, pointing towards the backpeddling. 'This whole thing didn't start because of his SPEECH, it started because of the curricular questions that CAME with the speech!" "I was never concerned about his SPEECH, it was the idea that it wasn't going to be released until close to the day-of". "I'm not concerned about SOCIALIST PROPAGANDA, just about him making the liberal party look good".

Hindsight is 20/20. Interesting how hindsight is so easily changed. I hope that no conservative out there would aim to mis-interpret their party's reaction to this
