With the rock-star status of Barack Obama and his campaign theme he called “Change,” not many of his supporters thought the “Change” they would be seeing is Obama changing his views, or flip-flopping, on the major issues that won him the Democratic nomination for President.

Many times I have told friends that Obama is an unknown and we really don’t have a clue on what he believes. After only three years in the U.S. Senate and a nice speech at the Democratic Convention back in 2004, Obama was vaulted to the top spot as Presidential contender.

Now, what his supporters are really seeing is that Obama is just a politician, just what his spiritual advisor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, told us.

He’s even flip-flopped on his support of Rev. Wright.

This must be a very difficult time for Obama supporters. They have put a lot of time and energy into the Obama campaign. Now, their man is flip-flopping on many issues they hold dear to their hearts.

We’ve seen Obama change positions on public financing for his campaign.

We’ve seen Obama change positions on gun control.

We’ve seen Obama change positions on the wearing of a flag pin.

We’ve seen Obama embrace President Bush’s faith-based program.

The second biggest issue that Obama has “changed” is his views on is Iraq. He was the candidate that did not vote for the war (he was not in the senate at that time, but that does not seem to matter) and he said, as President, he would bring the troops home in 16 months. Now, with the war being won and the surge working, Obama has decided that he will refine his policies. Those comments are like a dagger in the heart of the anti-war folks who have spent countless hours working for Obama. You have to feel for them. OK, maybe not.

The troops may be coming home from Iraq no matter who is President in 2009, because they will be victorious.

Now, the biggest issue for Obama is he has changed his views on the FISA bill and supports President Bush. Obama said during the primary season that he would filibuster any bill that gives retroactive immunity to telecommunications companies.

Today, Obama voted for the FISA bill. There was no filibuster by Obama. It passed the Senate 69-28. The far lefties may jump off a cliff, a building, or just go home from the campaign trail with heads hung low, heartbroken, muttering, “I thought Barack was the real deal.” Look for MSNBC, the network promoting Obama, to schedule Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow for some overtime to ease the tension on the left.

The term “flip-flop” is alive and well in this Presidential election and it appears to be sticking to Barack Obama.
