I’m new around here, so please excuse any faux pas.

I’ve read some of what my liberal friends are saying about Dean Kagan, and how she isn’t nearly as progressive as they would like. They seem disappointed that President Obama is proposing a moderate liberal rather than someone from the far left.

It’s as if everyone has bought into the idea that President Obama is actually the ber-liberal that the McCain campaign and the Republicans tried to make him out to be during the election.

Some of these folks wouldn’t believe a Republican if he told them that water was wet. But they believed the spin about (then) Candidate Obama, and are angry that he is exactly what he claimed to be.
