The Irony
This is like the primary wars all over again with the sides turned on their heads. Many of the same folks who viciously attacked anybody who deigned to oppose Barack Obama are now the same people who viciously attack anybody who deigns to support him.

They remind me of Il Duce who went from being a socialist to a fascist but remained the same fervor.

Then you have the supporters of Hillary Clinton of which I was one who never get over the primary wars who are using the current brouhaha to beat President Obama over the head with it. It's really distasteful. Let it go. Hate destroys the container without harming the object. The Clintons have moved on. Why can't you.

There are real issues to be discussed. They can't be reduced into an ersatz morality play with "appeasers" on one side and "purists" on the other side.

Our opponents are united. They waxed us in November and they will wax us again if things don't change. The status quo favors them.
