Make up your mind already - that is what someone should should say to those political analysts, who believe in fair weather commentary... I find it pretty sad, yet amusing that some find it so easy to take a stance on a particular topic and then then recant their stance, when the opposite opinion would benefit them more.
The Daily Show did a great job showing recent examples of political flip-flopping. One example involves Bill O'Reilly tearing the parents of Jaime Lynn (and Britany) Spears apart for letting their unwed teenage daughter get pregnant. O'Reilly does not hold back his criticism of the Spears parents, who he calls pinheads. However, O'Reilly tells his viewers that Sara Palin and her family should commended for supporting the unwed teenager with her pregnancy. What is wrong with this picture?
I must say, everyone has the right to change their opinions and at any given time. But, when it is clearly a matter of convenience - it makes you think. I am sure that O'Reilly would not be praising Joe Biden were he to have an unwed teenage daughter with a baby on the way...I say give me a break!
