Ari Fleisher just said on CNN that Obama is a flip flopper. That he was against

lifting the debt ceiling before he was for it. That is how they are going to try to mitigate Romney's history of flip flopping. Won't work. Romney has flipped & flopped on issues that span left-right ideology.

6. So I presume Fleisher is taking a position in favor of economic irresponsibility and childishness?

That's nice, although I wonder what his old boss would think about that. Even George the Younger wasn't that bad!

Let's admit it. Obama took a cheap shot back in the day. The fact that he is being responsible now is hardly a negative. Romney, on the other hand, has mostly moved from relative common sense to ideological fanaticism in hopes of placating his party's wingnuts.

Ari's "PR" firm has had a rough time lately. He was Mooselini's "agent" and we've seen how well that's worked and recently was trying to do spin control for Susan B. Komen and failing miserably. Sounds like he's out hustling in hopes of getting on the Mittens gravy train and get some of that SuperPac money. The dude is a paid liar...and not a very good one.
