Kos Throws Obama Under the Bus Tue, Jul 1, 2008 at 1:05:27 pm PST Maybe. Some on the left are already mad. Markos “Screw Them” Moulitsas will be withholding his money from Barack Obama until Obama toes the progressive line: Daily Kos: Rewarding good behavior. Maybe what looks like cowering to me is really part of that “moving to the center” stuff everyone keeps talking about. But there is a line between “moving to the center” and stabbing your allies in the back out of fear of being criticized. And, of late, he’s been doing a lot of unecessary stabbing, betraying his claims of being a new kind of politician. Not that I ever bought it, but Obama is now clearly not looking much different than every other Democratic politician who has ever turned his or her back on the base in order to prove centrist bona fides. That’s not an indictment, just an observation. Now I know there’s a contingent around here that things Obama can do no wrong, and he must never be criticized, and if you do, well fck you! I respect the sentiment, but will respectfully disagree. Because nothing says “respect” like a hearty “fck you!” littlegreenfootballs.com
