Gov. Tim Pawlenty (R-MN) appeared on Sean Hannity’s Fox News show last night, attacking President Obama for his “dangerous liberal agenda” that represents “one of the biggest bait-and-switch schemes in modern American political history.”

Pawlenty called Obama “a gifted orator” who “ran as somebody who was gonna unite the country, and now he’s governing as somebody who has a very dangerous liberal agenda. I think it’s a bait-and-switch tactic. I don’t think he’s governing like his rhetoric suggested. ”

He also took the opportunity to get in a dig about Obama’s use of the teleprompter: “When [Obama’s] reading the teleprompter he can give inspiring and grand rhetoric.”
