It really does sum up the difference between anti-Bush and anti-Obama.

The vast majority of the anti-Bush crowd, i.e. most of America, formed their opinion from Bush's policy mistakes, hubris and results.

The vast majority of the anti-Obama crowd, i.e. a minority of Americans whipped into a frenzy by a select few wingnut pundits, is basing their opinion from what they think Obama will do or on what they blame Obama for but what he's really inherited.

Now that's not to say there isn't some Obama policy that should deserve Conservative scorn. They haven't tried to reign in spending for instance, I'll give you that.

But most of the critique I see here on this forum and from the Right isn't really based on anything resembling objectivity. Is Obama perfect? No...is he a Liberal? to some degree yes, but can anyone tell me what that really means?

Is he going change the fundamental cause of America? Not a chance...

Get real everyone.

I had suspected that some on the Right would soon resemble the far Left loonies that would insist Bush's choice of necktie that afternoon was a sign of his desire to spread evil throughout the world.

But I had no idea it would happen so fast.
