Lawrence Auster writes on October 7 at the View from the Right (VFR) on Obama's poor debate performance, and the left's (and the right's) excuses for this performance:
...it wasn't just Obama's policies that defied the positive expectations of his policies, but his personality. I myself have written about how surprised I was, not by Obama's leftism, but by how the pleasing and charming side of his personality disappeared when he became president, and he turned outright nasty and unpleasant.Today (October 9th) he has posted links to videos which juxstapose Obama making speeches in two settings.
The first speech is in Hampton University in Virginia, in June 2007, as a presidential candidate, where he talks in a thick, black accent. Yet he has charm and swagger, despite the Daily Caller, who has posted these videos, describing his speech as "racially charged and at times angry."
The second speech (which The Daily Caller doesn't clarify) was just a year later in March 2008, in Philadelphia, which was titled "A more perfect union." According to Wikipedia:
Obama was responding to a spike in the attention paid to controversial remarks made by the Reverend Jeremiah Wright, his former pastor and, until shortly before the speech, a participant in his campaign.It is astonishing how much more dogmatic, and fascistic, Obama looks, and he hasn't even been elected president yet, which is when Larry Auster noticed the appearance of the hardned expression. These were signs of things to come.
The Nazis also burst into the German scene as jovial, happy, family people, who could sing beautiful songs for their rapt German audience. Yet, these happy melodies quickly transformed into jackboot marching songs, and the smiling faces turned hard and cold, ready to transform the world.
