Barack Obama has been campaigning for reelection as a reasonable man, a common-sense leader with a steady hand. His stated goals for a second term in office are modest and centrist, if a bit vague on the specifics: create jobs, improve infrastructure, fight global warming.
Of course, that’s just one Barack Obama. Then there’s the other one—the one his campaign won’t be telling you about. This other Obama has plans. Secret plans.

This is one more Globe smear of the conservative movement in the US. Of course, there are paranoid crazies on the right. But there are also paranoid crazies on the left who think that the Koch brothers run the United States. (I can't wait for some faithful posters to reply that the Koch brothers do actually run this country.)
I agree with Ozark. Only the Globe and NYT can look at Obama and consider him a moderate.
No one literally believes the Koch brothers run the US, but there is no disputing the empirical evidence that they are using their vast wealth to exert an outsized influence on our politics. That's just the truth.
George Soros is a billionaire Wall Street guy who has helped to fund the Occupy Wall Street movement, MoveOn.org, etc. Does his money cancel the influence of the Koch brothers, or are conservatives simply more shrewd?
What the far Right, and the far Left fail to forget is that Obama does NOT HAVE DICTATORSHIP POWERS!!!!! To amend the constitution, end holidays, transfer land to the poor, etc( fill in the blank),the president would need to get Congressional approval. This nightmare of the Right that Obama is going to turn America into communist Russia; or the dream of the Left he will turn us into France is just that-------UNREAL!!!!!!!!
What specific policies that the President has pursued would you characterize as extremist, i.e. not moderate? I mean, specifically?
And only you could turn this article into an attack on conservatives. Did you bother to read it or is this just another one if your canned trolls?
Too long, didn't read.
Uh, "a reporter at WorldNetDaily" is a contradiction in terms. If the GOP is really looking for votes to suppress, they should round up everybody that believes any of this tripe and prevent them from voting. These people are non compos mentis. Which means, of course, they shouldn't have guns either.
