re: #286 Obdicut

No I’m not trying very hard at all. I’m saying the party out of power seems to get crazy and act stupid and make asses of themselves. It happened for 8 years under bush, 8 years before that under Clinton, it will happen for 4-8 years under Obama, and then if another Republican, the Dems will come back and be just as bad.

Again, just because some people who don’t like Obama agree with your position, doesn’t mean my position is wrong. I never said it was fullproof. For some proximity makes it worse. What’s happened recently can seem worse than what happened previously. I’m stating simply that if you agree with Obama, you are more likely to think what’s happening now is worse, and vice versa. I’m sure I could dig up some people who hated agree with Obama who say it was worse then, it doesn’t change the fact that it seems to fall along party lines as to which era people found more hate-filled. Given hate-filled speech is all subjective at some level anyway, we are talking about something that can’t be proven one way or another. I just guarantee that as soon as another Republican’s in office, the right wing will moderate, and the left wing will get crazier. All you have to do is go back and read internet posts all the way back to the 90’s to see.
