Aww... It's the Man of the People thread!

That's the latest right-wing attack. "Obama went golfing! If Bush would have done that . . ."

My argument is that those critcism of Bush didn't come until later.

My argument is that those critcism of Bush didn't come until later.

Yeah, like, a day after the election.  Before 9/11, Bush was heavily criticized, and had public approval ratings below 50%.  Most folks tend to forget that he started off as a joke.

Then came the war...

I just think it's a child's argument. "Well, Tommy did it but that doesn't make it okay."

[nacho]

Oh, yeah, I agree.

[RottingCorpse]

And what really baffles me is that there are legitimate arguments for criticizing Obama's policies and philosophy, yet the right-wingers pick the most insane ones to constantly rail about.

I guess if it's not totally crazy, who's going to listen?

[nacho]

Right wingers love themselves and feel justified and, therefore, are capable of complaining only about the most superficial things. 

Left wingers hate themselves and feel oppressed and, so, complain about the world at large.

That's so fucked up, it almost makes sense.
