It’s really got to be tough being an Obamaton these days. I mean, it’s gotten to the point where even I almost feel sorry for them – with emphasis on the “almost”.
Think about it: Barely a year ago today, this nation was flooded with an enormous army of cocksure, self-absorbed, unthinking, obnoxious leftists who really believed they were about to embark upon a glorious, permanent era of socialist/fascist governance in the United States. Coming off the near-landslide electoral victories of November, 2008, they were about to install the first true radical leftist in the White House, a young, charismatic and energetic true believer who would have huge majorities in both houses of congress to work with to enact socialist/fascist policies related to everything from healthcare to global warming to nationalization of major industries, to control of content over the airwaves and Internet. The hated Republicans were in utter, dispirited disarray, marginalized to the point of irrelevance and teetering on the brink of political extinction.
Those were heady days for the Obamaton Nation, and they were not shy about letting everyone around them know about it.
