The same Internet-fueled power that led to historic gains in organizing and fundraising for Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is now providing a platform for fiery dissent in a most unlikely place: his own Web site.

Amid criticism from the left that he has eased toward the center on a number of issues in recent weeks, the presumptive Democratic nominee has angered some of his most ardent supporters while triggering something of an online mutiny. Thousands are using MyBarackObama.com to angrily organize against him because of a changed position on terrorist wiretap legislation that awaits Senate action as early as Wednesday

I wonder how long it will be before they follow the lead of the Herald in L'affaire Tomase and shut down the comments section......

Pathetic... As if the entire site has turned against him... Oops, no it hasn't.... Not accurate.

The man is playing the political game, and is determined to not make the same mistakes as Jimmy Carter.

Look, no one who's not a Bush Leaguer is happy that Barack helped get telecomm's off the hook for aiding Bush's raping of the Constitution... Still, it allowed for a more Constitution friendly re-writing of the Bill, and hinders Boy King's ambitions in return.

But I actually am starting to like Obama for his apparent shifts on gun rights and the death penalty.

Regardless, it's laughable that McShamers would be pointing to Obama's flip-flopping, when the zombie has changed like the weather on a number of issues the past 3 years, or even hour to hour. It's not even remotely close in comparison.

But whatever. If you guys really want the flight-challenged zombie to lead our nation and sucker punch more Asian countries for privatized corporate profit, so be it. This country looks more and more beyond help by the day.

Don't take FBN so seriously. Haven't you noticed his trend away from intellectual comments while he's having his fun bumping old threads? Obviously something has gotten under his skin lately. It appears he's throwing a tantrum of sorts...kinda fun to watch.

The problem is some here take this stuff way too seriously. I like to get my opinion in and take a jab or 2 while I'm at it. Kind of like Rush in a way ... politics and entertainment at the same time ... it makes for lively discussion.

Some here think there are absolute rights and wrongs ... correct opinions and incorrect opinions. I'm smart enough to know that's it's all relative to your opinion and perspectives. So, instead of arguing my point I lay it in there and have some fun at the same time ... it's not like ... as I said anyone is going to suddenly say hey ... I want to be a liberal, or i want to be a libertarian anyways.

Well, now that you're posting...I especially agree with "correct opinions and incorrect opinions". That point is so important. We often get into debates and start to actually believe we're right. Every now & then we get humbled by a great post or by our own idiotic comments. then we realize "what the hell do I know?...really"

Nothing wrong with fun as a long as it's purpose is not to disrupt others. I think there is a right & wrong in that regard. And each of us knows inside when we're out of line.

I know I've been out of line more than once. But I'll never admit it in the heat of discussion.

I do see Obama as flexible ... and I like that about him. Clinton was flexible also but his was way too slow and always bent on opinion polls. I'm hoping Obama takes the time to see what's best for the people and also acts quickly as the President when he has to. That I felt was always Clinton's biggest weakness ... his inability to be "Potus" when he had to ... he was always afraid of his poll numbers.
