Democratic Senator Jay Rockefeller: Hey, That Obama Feller Is Sort of a Liar, Isn't He?

"He's beginning to become not believable to me," Sen. Rockefeller says, regarding Obama's record of broken promises, specifically, in this case, assurances that West Virginia's vital coal industry would be protected.

Obama says a lot of things, buddy.

The statement begins at 5:00.

One thing I (and you) have been asking is "When do Democrats start to distance themselves from Obama?"

This is a fairly significant statement, I think. Rockefeller could have asked for reassurance on coal any number of ways. He chose to do so by suggesting Obama's words do not match his deeds.
