You can tell what issues Obama feels strongly about and comfortable with discussing by the speed with which he speaks out.

For example, he shot off his mouth immediately (and unwisely) about the confrontation between the professor and the cop, leading to the beer summit.

He was pretty quick to condemn Arizona’s efforts to enforce their borders.

Although he is pro Islam, he didn’t speak about Egypt until his advisors had huddled and told him what to say. He is not that knowledgeable about foreign affairs.

But give him something he’s familiar with — a good old battle between the unions and the mean conservatives and he shoots off his mouth faster than Raylan Givens can shoot his gun.

Yep.....but he shot himself in the foot with this one. I think he's lost Wisconsin in 2012.
