Where have I heard this before?

Don Surber:

Democratic Sen. Barack Obama’s statement on Jeremiah Wright is the same as his statement on Tony Rezko.

April 29, Obama: “I’ve known Reverend Wright for almost 20 years. The person that I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago.”

June 4, Obama: “This isn’t the Tony Rezko I knew, but now he has been convicted by a jury on multiple charges that once again shine a spotlight on the need for reform.”

I can see it now, after Iran obliterates Israel: “This isn’t the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad I knew. The person that I saw yesterday was not the person that I met a year ago.”
