During the 08 election, a common anti-Obama chant was 'Nobama' (which was fair enough, considering what his supporters had). I also knew that there was plenty of (and I'll be kind) antipathy towards the candidate. Certainly, nobody else copped 'HE'S UNPATRIOTIC LOOK AT THAT BARE LAPEL/HE'S A MUZZIE LOOK AT HIS SKIN/HE'S A RADICAL LOOK AT THAT GUY WHO BOMBED SHIT WHEN HE WAS A CHILD!!1!'
However (in hindsight for reasons I can't fathom) I thought the most of the American public (and when I say most I mean a decent portion of the staunch Republicans) would at least give President no. 44 some time until his slips and then go at him like a pack of rabid, well, zombies.
In other words: if you want to come off as being a respectable member of the community and still be a hater, you wait until the object of you hatred screws up, and then vent your hatred.
Not the other way round.
Obama's been President for a week, and Hellnobama is trying to impeach him on the grounds of not being a US citizen (Hawaii ain't a real US state!). This is kinda weird, as it wouldn't exactly produce a sudden change in Administrative policies.
Some other highlights:
- quoting the Obama family without citing the quotes.
-Ms. Obama is a racist because she wrote some stuff in 1985.
-preventing illegal abortions (which is the only alternative) is somehow bad.
- Obama has on occasion associated with people who have in their lives done some crazy and shitty things, and this makes him a bad person for not surrounding himself with saints.
- one comment the Prez has made (which has a fair amout of truth to it) about people clinging to guns, and the fact that he likes to remain healthy, makes him a sneering elitist who looks down on the ordinary Joe/Bloe/Shmoe/Sixpack who's doing it tough.
- some people who have supported Obama have been somewhat obsessive and weird (I haven't bothered to read it), and that's his fault.
The list goes on.
Will they ever stop humiliating themselves?
