This is why I am unable to support the Obama agenda in the words of disillusioned Democrats, who have come to believe that while he talks a great game, his actions have failed to reflect what he said! “I was a big believer in hope and change as of May 2009, when he [Obama] talked about our values and principals,” said Morris Davis, a former Air Force colonel and prosecutor at Guantanamo under former President George W. Bush. “I was extraordinarily optimistic when he gave this talk, and disappointed a few months later, he began to backpedal.” Now, Davis praises the efforts of groups like Code Pink, saying the member who interrupted the president’s national-security speech, showed “strength and courage.” “There were people who had their Bush blinders,” Davis said. “And there are people with their Obama goggles. If the reality was half as good as his rhetoric, we wouldn’t be having this panel today.” Noreen Shah, a lecturer at Columbia University Law School’s Human Rights Institute, derided Obama’s tenure as “a presidency that says all the right things, but doesn’t provide much evidence it’s actually doing them.”
