The one phrase I simply cannot stomach on DU ...

[LiberalAndProud]

Obama = Bush

Christ on a Cracker! Where were these people living over the previous 8 years? WHERE?

I swear to God my head is going to explode.

1. Hyperbole is all that's left of GD and GDP

[Kind of Blue]

2. Well, it must be true since Glover speaks for

the monolith that is the WHOLE "African-American community" - I think that's what you're talking about though I've seen the same O=B equation a lot.

[LiberalAndProud]

4. Yes, the Glover thread was the latest.

But the equation appeared on DU the day after the inauguration, I'm pretty sure.

[Arkana]

3. GD and GDP are sinking into a quagmire of whining, bitching, and moaning

about every little thing that goes on in Washington.

It's like they don't know how to switch gears after eight years of abuse.

5. I've seen worse. F!@k Obama comes to mind.

I saw that answer to several posts that I made.

Hell, they used almost identical language against me.

Many people do not want to admit that complexity exists. There is comfort in the idea that corporations are the evil spawn of Satan using the Democratic Senators and the President as ass puppets for their grand scheme of world domination. The very idea that the 60 Democratic Senators did not speak with one voice and held different beliefs is a violation of an ordered simple world. The idea that Obama did not give them their marching orders is offensive.

A lot of them projected their own beliefs onto President Obama, the house, and the Senate, and feel betrayed because the Democratic did not act like they think they would under identical circumstances.

[gardenista]

10. It's the new math doncha know?

[HopeOverFear]

11. childish brats, I'd like to bitch slap all of 'em

[treestar]

12. Failure to Lead

Because Lieberman could be convinced, somehow.

Betrayal gets triple points for annoyance. They don't have to treat it like an emotional commitment!

Better that 30 million continue uninsured than insurance company stocks going up! They post that so triumphantly! Yet there's on proof of a relationship and even if there were, why should all those people continue without a way to pay for health care treatment because some people have a pathological hatred of a business entity!

[treestar]

13. the claim that they are the base!

No, they are not!

[RFKHumphreyObama]

15. "There's no difference between Obama and Bush"

is the updated version of
"There is no difference between Bush and Gore"
which was in turn the updated version of"
"There is no difference between Carter and Reagan"
which in turn was the updated version of
"There is no difference between Humphrey and Nixon"

People on the left who should no better have been trotting out this intellectually dishonest meme for the longest time and the sad thing is that it dupes in particular the young people not old enough to remember the past Republican Administration. I heard this so often among young people during the 2000 presidential election -"there's no difference between Bush and Gore" -and I'm willing to bet that most of the people saying that have now eaten their words

[cliffordu]

16. I believe that should lead to an immediate TS.

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

17. That, and any remote approximation thereof, should be immediately banned.

You know, if the admins and mods followed the rules they created.
