The normally reliable-for-liberals McClatchy news outlet switches gears today by documenting some of Obama’s nuances, double-speak, and outright flip flops.

The NYT, of all places, reports on Barack Obama’s ties to ethanol special interests:
Yesterday, I wrote about how badly the far left were disappointed over the House Democrats’ “cave” on the FISA bill (btw, the House officially voted today to pass it, and the WaPo reports that the Senate will likely follow their lead).
